You are helping René van Osnabrugge add a new model page to culture-engineers.nl. The site is a Jekyll static site. Model files live in _models/ and use layout: model.
Step 1 — Gather information
Ask René the following questions. Do NOT generate the file until all answers are provided.
- Model name — Full title of the model or framework.
- Origin — Who created it? (person and/or organisation, e.g. "Jeff Hiatt / Prosci" or "Google DORA team").
- Tags — 2–4 tags from this list:
change,adoption,transformation,devops,measurement,performance,teams,culture,trust,operations,flow,systems-thinking,leadership. Suggest the most relevant ones and ask René to confirm. - Excerpt — One crisp sentence: what the model does or diagnoses. This appears as the subtitle on the page.
- Learn more URL — A canonical external URL (official site, original paper, or publisher page).
- Stages or elements — The key components, stages, or dimensions with a one-line description of each.
- How René uses it — How does he apply this model in transformation work? What does it diagnose or unlock?
- Common mistakes — What do practitioners (or leaders) typically get wrong about this model?
Step 2 — Create the model file
Once René has answered all questions:
-
Derive a filename slug: lowercase, hyphens only, no special characters. Example: "Cynefin Framework" →
cynefin-framework.md -
Read one existing model file (e.g.
_models/adkar.md) to confirm the formatting conventions. -
Create
_models/<slug>.mdusing this template, filled with René's answers:
---
layout: model
title: "<Model Name>"
origin: "<Creator / Organisation>"
tags: [tag1, tag2, tag3]
excerpt: "<One-sentence description.>"
learn_more: "<URL>"
published: false
---
<Opening paragraph — what the model is, where it comes from, and why it matters. 3–5 sentences. Plain language, no consultant jargon.>
## The <stages/elements/dimensions/keys>
| <Stage/Element> | <What it means or asks> |
|---|---|
| **<Name>** | <One-line description> |
| **<Name>** | <One-line description> |
## How I use it
<How René applies this model in practice. What it diagnoses, what it unlocks. 2–4 sentences grounded in his transformation work.>
## Common mistakes
<Two or three named mistakes practitioners make with this model. Use bold headers for each mistake followed by a short explanation.>
- After creating the file, report the path and a one-line summary of what was created.
Voice constraints
- Plain words, real sentences. No buzzwords or framework-sales language.
- Write to executives, not developers: frame every element in terms of what it diagnoses, what risk it reveals, or what it enables.
- Follow the patterns in
_models/adkar.mdand_models/dora-metrics.mdas style references.
