Key observations:

  • All three governance personas report to GCA via governance relationship type
  • The pipeline flows DGS to PTE to AMS, with each adding a compliance layer
  • GCA has the final authority to approve or reject via DE

Subgraph: Stakeholder Hub

The 5 stakeholder personas manage communication, metrics, and publication.

Key observations:

  • EC is the central communication node, receiving from CO, SMC, and RS
  • CO and RS have a strong bidirectional coordination for timeline management
  • SCP is the terminal node for publication, receiving from multiple sources

Subgraph: Champion Orchestration Layer

The 4 champions form a high-level coordination layer.

    style BCHM fill:#2196F3,color:#fff
    style UGCH fill:#9C27B0,color:#fff
    style RBCH fill:#FF5722,color:#fff

Key observations:

  • BCHM is the most connected champion, receiving from RCHM and handing off to both UGCH and RBCH
  • Each champion orchestrates exactly 4 personas (including its base persona)
  • The champion layer mirrors the FCC cycle: Find (RCHM) to Create (BCHM) to Critique/Publish (UGCH) + Operations (RBCH)

Network Analysis

Most Connected Personas (by Total Degree)

Rank Persona In-Degree Out-Degree Total Role
1 GCA 7 4 11 Governance hub -- receives from all compliance sources
2 BC 6 5 11 Central Create node -- receives research, sends blueprints
3 DE 5 5 10 Critique bridge -- reviews and publishes
4 BCHM 3 7 10 Design champion -- orchestrates largest team
5 RC 4 5 9 Research origin -- feeds all downstream personas

Hub-and-Spoke Patterns

Three personas act as hubs connecting otherwise separate clusters:

  1. GCA -- Connects the governance cluster (DGS, PTE, AMS) to the core workflow (DE, CO)
  2. DE -- Connects the Create phase (BC, RB, UG) to the governance and publication pipelines
  3. BCHM -- Connects the Research Champion (RCHM) to both the Publishing Champion (UGCH) and Operations Champion (RBCH)

Bottleneck Analysis

A bottleneck is a persona whose removal disconnects significant parts of the graph:

Persona Consequence if Removed Mitigation
GCA Governance personas lose their reporting target Designate DE as backup governance receiver
DE Create phase outputs cannot reach publication Direct BC to SCP handoff as bypass
BCHM Find phase cannot hand off to Create phase Enable direct RCHM to BC handoff
