3. The Governance Accelerator/accelerator

Rigid Mobility

Flexible movement, fixed definitions.

The "Rigid Mobility" Principle

How do we reconcile "Agile" (flexibility) with "Governance" (control)? The answer is Rigid Mobility.

The Definition

Rigid Boundaries

The definition of a phase (POC vs MVP) never changes. The criteria for "Ready" and "Done" are immutable contracts.

Mobile Pathing

The movement between phases is flexible. You can jump from Start to MVP if you sign the risk waiver.

This prevents the common failure mode where teams pretend to do a POC but actually build a bad MVP. In Governance OS, you can skip the POC, but you cannot fake it.
