The addition of a "boost-and-collapse flow" plus an S-Logistic flow yields the renown Hype Curve. <br /><br />System dynamics is a good discipline that simulates a lot these kind of phenomena. <br /><br />Regards<br />FranciscoP477https://www.blogger.com/profile/12616233381726728312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1326059325865200076.post-21890538432821321322013-02-15T15:07:02.823+00:002013-02-15T15:07:02.823+00:00I have used prezi.

Perhaps, another way to phrase it could be - What are the "key indicators (such as quantifiable large scale impact, etc.)" for a practice to be classified as a "good practice" or a "best practice"?
