What is ammerse?
Think of AMMERSE as a low learning curve framework with profound possibilities. At the most basic level, you can communicate and reason about the values of your business, team, products or features. This provides alignment and improvements in implementing the vision. For advanced usage, AMMERSE provides the tools to build methods and frameworks for your teams.
AMMERSE is flexible. With AMMERSE, you can build a structure for meetings, software design philosophies, processes or your own framework.
Getting started
To understand the many capabilities and levels of AMMERSE, you must first learn the fundamental value system.

Everything we do is influenced by our “worldview” or our “workview”. We all care about different things in different orders. We can easily be biased by our values when discussing tasks, functions or features. Many methods, even the Agile Manifesto, have axiology, where values are placed over other values. The authors decide the values and place them for you to follow. Phrases like We value X “over” Y, are a proclamation of values. These give rise to a mental model and a communications language. Many practices are aligned with the values.
The Agile Movement has a set of values and it pushes its philosophy above other values.
AMMERSE does not push a belief system on you. Instead, it is a language for you and your team to build your own.
Your value system
Even though you have the most basic definitions of the values above, can you decide what is more important to you?
A weighted system allows us to fine-tune our axiology. Instead of saying we value one over another, we can add weights to each value. We must have a mutual understanding of the values. before assigning weights. We call these seven values and their weights an “AMMERSE Set”.
