The fundamental objective of the proposed theory of society presented here is to be able to forecast the future state of an organization.  The forecast should refer to specific measurable attributes of the organization at some specific time in the future.  The forecast is to include the accuracy of both the forecasted measure and event time.

A theory of society should also satisfy the following conditions.

1. It must apply to groups of all sizes from the very small to all of humanity.
2. It must provide a means to assess the consequences of different courses of action of single individuals and groups of individuals.
3. It must provide a means to determine outcome sensitivity to various current state parameters and to potential decisions made by human actors.
4. It must be verifiable.
