Abstract:
1. A computer implemented method for developing a strategy for achieving a goal, the computer implemented method comprising the steps of: a. dividing the goal into a plurality of first-generation sub-goals to form a goal hierarchy; b. dividing one or more of the plurality of first-generation sub-goals into one or more subsequent generations of sub-goals if a number of the one or more subsequent generations of sub-goals is less than a threshold value, wherein the threshold value represents a number of generations of sub-goals adequate to achieve the goal, each of the one or more subsequent generations of sub-goals being added to the goal hierarchy; c. defining at least one parameter associated with each of the plurality of first-generation sub-goals and each of the one or more subsequent generations of sub-goals of the goal hierarchy; d. determining a relative importance of each of the plurality of first-generation sub-goals and each of the one or more subsequent generations of sub-goals of the goal hierarchy based on the at least one parameter; e. generating a multi-level concentric representation of the goal hierarchy based on the at least one parameter, the multi-level concentric representation being a visual representation of the goal hierarchy to assist in tracking the progress of the goal and the sub-goals of the goal hierarchy, wherein a level of the multi-level concentric representation represents a generation of the sub-goals of the goal hierarchy, and the level is divided into a plurality of sectors, each of the plurality of sectors representing a sub-goal on the level, the sector size of each of the plurality of sectors in the multi-level concentric representation representing the relative importance of the corresponding sub-goal of the goal hierarchy; and f. coloring each of the plurality of sectors from the circumference of the corresponding sector towards the center of the multi-level concentric representation to track visually the progress of the corresponding sub-goal on the level,
