System approach to the Students' Union of the University of Economics in Prague
Kočí, Jakub ; Sigmund, Tomáš (advisor) ; Benda, Martin (referee)
The aim of this diploma thesis is the preparation and foundation of the Students' Union of the University of Economics in Prague, which is done by Soft systems methodology. In order to achieve this aim, the thesis elaborates a theory of student organizations and student unions in the Czech Republic. It also compares a set of rules governing student organizations at chosen Czech universities with chosen foreign universities. The result of this comparison is that chosen foreign universities have more systematic policies towards their student organizations. The research part of this thesis contains Analysis two (social) and Analysis three (political) from the Soft systems methodology. The results of the research contains defined set of roles, norms, values and a distribution of power in the environment of student organizations at University of Economics. Practical part of the thesis brings two complete learning cycles of the Soft systems methodology including root definitions, CATWOE and models of purposeful activity. Based on these two learning cycles, the thesis defines the general limits of Soft system methodology for the foundation of student union at Czech universities.

Analysis of enterprise's complex system
Malackanič, Roman ; Sigmund, Tomáš (advisor) ; Berta, Michal (referee)
This diploma thesis focuses on the analysis of a particular soft complex system in the company. This system is a running car service with a determined problem situation. This system and its problem is then evaluated in terms of soft systems methodology, system dynamics and critical systems heuristics. The theoretical section provides concepts to understand the complexity and also individual system approaches. As beneficial of work I consider the practical part, which is aimed to the analysis of complex real-world system using the selected approaches as well as an evaluation of these approaches. Main purpose is to bring comparisons and suggestions for improvement and also a broader view to the system. All of this increases information value of approaches and we are able to deliver more relevant information. Thesis is therefore focused not only to deal with examples from practice but also to extend the selected theories within the system approaches.

Comparison of bank accounts using the selected systems approach
Sedláčková, Zuzana ; Klas, Jan (advisor) ; Brixí, Radim (referee)
The goal of this work was to evaluate the usefulness of Checkland's Soft Systems Methodology to the problem of choosing the appropriate checking account. The structure of this work is divided into three phases. The first part is applied to the theory of soft systems. I have focused primarily on the steps of Checkland's Soft Systems Methodology. In the next section, I applied the aforementioned methodology to the problem of choosing the most convenient checking account. I chose the methodology only some steps that helped me to solve the problem: a description of the unstructured situation, expressing the problem situation through rich picture, creating root definitions, conceptual model and compared the model with reality. I propounded two root definitions, which describe how the system works. Comparing models with reality is meant to compare the various criteria under which the clients choose the checking account. I got the criteria of root definitions and question form. Especially comparing those criteria, I found the usefulness of the methodology to the problem. The last phase is the actual comparison of customers' requirements with what each account offers. I chose a total of 4 types of clients - students, families, single-person households and pensioners.

The Application of the Soft Systems Methodology to the Problem of Insufficient Information Delivery from the Public Administration of the Town Lysá nad Labem to its Citizens in Public Matters
Galanová, Dagmar ; Šubrta, Václav (advisor) ; Klas, Jan (referee)
The aim of this paper is to analyze the problem of insufficient information delivery from the public administration of the town Lysá nad Labem to its citizens in public matters and to find particular solutions to improve the situation. The problem is being analyzed and partly solved by the soft systems methodology which is best used with complex unstructured problems involving human action. The soft systems methodology provides number of thinking-supportive tools which are used to find out about the problem situation, express particular problems and to find feasible and desirable solutions which lead to improvement. The application of the soft systems methodology brought very detailed analysis of the problem situation from which a number of possible solutions to improve the problem have arisen. One solution proposal offers solutions which hardly intervene in the structure and processes of the present system and are more likely to be implemented in a long term perspective. The other solution proposal consists of solutions which can be implemented in a short term perspective.
