Module 3 — Organizational patterns¶
4 patterns operating at organization / structural / culture scale.
- #31 Schein iceberg —
vstack_schein_culture— three-layer culture model (artifacts / espoused values / underlying assumptions). The deepest culture diagnostic in vstack. - #32 Robbins-Judge —
vstack_robbins_culture— seven-characteristic culture profile + type label. - #33 Org-Structure Matrix —
vstack_org_structure— Galbraith-Mintzberg six-dimension structural-fit diagnostic. - #34 Span-of-Control —
vstack_span_of_control— deterministic graph metrics (max_span, mean_span, centralization_index, hierarchy_depth, span_gini, decision_bottleneck). The math is gated to Python; the LLM only paraphrases.
The deterministic Span-of-Control numbers + pre-shipped canonical baselines (see Calibration baselines) make this module the most ready for monitoring use cases.
