Source adapted from Millmore et al. 2007 interventions indeed this measurement potential of models connects with the origin of the term model Latin modus meaning measure . Echoing Jankowicz 2000 referring to models of HRM facilitates the prediction of how one state of affairs might evolve subject to influences of context. A context represents the semantic space within which to interpret both universally and particularly the meaning of a patterned series of connected concepts or symbols . as represented by words and images. Figure 5 serves to illustrate this effect. Figure 5 discussed elsewhere in this book under the heading of diversity management clusters various concepts into boxes. It thereby assumes and guides the reader towards accepting that these concepts are somehow related and together form some kind of mini-discussion or argument. The argument is driven mainly along the lines that connect between concept clusters and as a premise by the concept Diversity that appears to stand as a superordinate concept and thus start this particular argument off an interpretation that fits the particular context in which this diagram is presented. It is through reference to context that this diagram and its arrangement of elements becomes coherent and it is this coherence that supports the development of an argument or explanation thus fulfilling the description explanation and prediction conditions for HRM and other management models highlighted above. Connecting with the inevitable uncertainty that attempts to predict how the state of affairs illustrated here might evolve readers are able if not explicitly invited to speculate. Given the stable point of reference offered by the model readers are able to do this collectively and individually the model thus supports processes of reflection discussion and learning. For example one test of the coherence suggested in this 141 MODELS OF HRM particular diagram might be to ask .
