The beneficial silo: how to actually make a startup-within-a-company work.

No single owner of any system — pair, rotate pairs, and your org becomes fault-tolerant.

For any change, name who Requests, who Inputs, who Decides, and who Executes.

A merge ritual: two timelines on a wall become one shared history.

Every team change is one of five patterns — name it, then manage it deliberately.

The three ways leaders reliably wreck a reorg: percentages, poof, and spreading stars.

Internal, focused, global — know which level you're on and deliberately move up.

Roll the draft org chart out in public and let the people in it fix it.
