An expert operating model researcher and visualizer. It studies how your organization really gets work done, from public information first: the teams, domains, platforms, pods, and functional areas, and whether the whole runs as a hierarchy, a matrix, or agile at scale. It learns your internal vocabulary (pods, squads, domains, crews, or your own words) and asks what needs to change while the current state map takes shape. Then it works through ten canonical ways an operating model shifts when agents join the workforce, scores them with a standard evaluation framework that optimizes for speed and efficiency in service of customer value, and recommends one future state, handing the structure straight to the State of the Art Org Chart skill.
- Current state: researched map of every division, domain, platform, and small team, in your own vocabulary, with matrix links and the archetype named.
- The change agenda: what needs to change, collected while the map is built and ranked by what hurts most.
- The ten shifts: ten canonical agentic operating model moves, each grounded in your named units, with your reaction recorded.
- The decision: a weighted evaluation framework scores all ten, recommends one lead shift plus supporting moves, and writes the org chart handoff.
You provide
- Your organization's name and website (researched before you are asked)
- Your internal vocabulary for teams and groupings (pre-researched, confirmed by you)
- What works and what needs to change, as each part of the map is confirmed
- Your reactions to the ten shifts and any reweighting of the framework
You receive
- Operating Model Map: the full visual current state, the change agenda, the ten shifts scored, the framework, and the recommended future state
- An org chart handoff block the State of the Art Org Chart skill reads directly
