We are starting to see some of the team storming & norming” taking place. People are become more comfortable with their new jobs and are settling into their new teams. Levity and expressions of gratitude are slightly under average and constructive conflict in meetings and quality of conversation are up, too. We want to see differences of opinions and willingness to challenge one another while still being able to come back together and align on decisions being made.
Iteration 01 of our action plan until the end of

• Archipelago to work with key clients establish a realistic update cadence with the intention that it will become part of how they manage their business (activities, deliverables, dates, etc.);
Session 02 with Discipline Engineers on establishing core strengths and preparing to be the 2nd wave of change after optimization processes are established;
• Readiness (Action) Tracker has been populated, but the OSO Leaders have not established the habit of updating their Deliverables / Actions;
Leaders are intentionally engaging their teams with conversations about being high performing and working on how they work;
Getting the items into an accountability tool has forced the team to pragmatically think what's actually achievable over the next 3 months. It's also forced the team to really consider stakeholders, since most process-mapping activities involve others.

• Specific item that should/will be a focus for Archipelago will be Accountability; which equates to clear actions and direction. When actions are being taken – they are of increasing quality, but are only being captured in 1 out of every 3 meetings.

• Deep dive into Psychological Safety with the OSO functional leaders; and follow-up learning session focusing on principles of Process revisit communication strategies (content and cadence); how can we communicate more and close the gap between expectation and execution?
Highlights + Insights

• Conflict, has jumped over 20 percentage points compared to baseline measure. Conflict, which is meant as constructive conflict, is measured as a combination of observable behaviors: openness, good questions, challenges, resolutions, conversation quality, constructive conflict, aligned & supported decisions;
• Introduction of design thinking and prototyping principles with the OSO Leads and some of their teams; observable trickle-down of language behaviours and concepts.

Success Metric: Scoping + Schedule
• Formalization of communication framework; functional teams will have to transition into education and communication mode as we near significant golive dates (December 01); Continuation of narrative building and prototyping desired state processes; testing sessions are expanding to cross-functional and field-based audiences
• High Quality testing and prototyping sessions were observed in multiple groups; design thinking principles could prove to be transformational to pace of process design;
Discipline to overcommunicate with more broad and more granular audience will be critical prior to go-live dates;
• Expressing gratitude to others in a meeting is quite low right now, observed in only 54% of the meetings this week. Expressions of gratitude are simple ways of reinforcing desired behaviors or thanking someone for a job well done;
Pursuit of new ways of thinking and communicating will prove to be beneficial to potential organizational savings and efficiencies (ex: meeting intensity calculator + visualization)

• Acknowledgement that gaps between now and Dec 1 still exist, and closing them won't be easy - the stress level has increased, but in our opinion not to an unhealthy level, but to a "we need to sprint to the
