The Playformer Process
Observe. Experiment. Shape. Support. An artist’s approach to organizational change—with the structure to put it into practice.
Four phases. Room to return.
Understand the history, name the change, and align the people responsible for it.
What needs to be true for this to work here?
Stakeholder conversations, impact and readiness assessment, sponsor alignment, and an initial roadmap.
Test a small version with the people who will experience it. Use what happens to make better decisions.
What can we try now that will teach us something?
Pilots, working sessions, prototype tools, manager feedback, and revisions to the plan.
Turn promising ideas into clear roles, workable processes, and support people can use.
What needs to be clear before we expand?
Future-state workflows, decision rights, operating agreements, role-based resources, and readiness reviews.
Support the transition, learn from actual use, and give internal owners the tools to carry it forward.
What keeps this working after the project ends?
Launch support, adoption checks, improvement backlogs, communities of practice, and ownership handoffs.
The phases connect and repeat. A pilot can reveal a different problem; a rollout can reopen a decision. We return with better information.
