Jobs to be done and outcomes

This guide explains the core jobs Orgonaut helps you complete and the outcomes you should expect when those jobs are done well.

Use it as a planning checklist when deciding where to focus effort first.

Core jobs Orgonaut supports

Job to be done Typical task in Orgonaut Primary outcome
Establish a trustworthy Live view Import org structure and clean key records Shared view of current structure
Understand who sits where Model actors, placements, and positions Clear ownership and reporting lines
Test change safely Create scenario and model edits Lower risk before commitment
Compare options with evidence Review cost and velocity deltas Better decision quality
Commit approved change Promote scenario to Live Controlled structural rollout
Explain what changed Use activity log and lineage Transparent governance

Outcome areas to track

Focus on outcomes, not just completed clicks.

  • Data trust: teams agree Live reflects reality.
  • Decision speed: scenario comparison cycles get shorter.
  • Change quality: fewer late surprises after promotions.
  • Cross-functional alignment: product, HR, and finance use the same model.

Suggested operating rhythm

  1. Keep Live accurate through regular import and cleanup.
  2. Use scenarios for planned structural changes.
  3. Review deltas in recurring planning meetings.
  4. Promote only approved scenarios.
  5. Use activity logs for post-change review.

Signals that you are getting value

  • Stakeholders stop debating which org view is correct.
  • Scenario review conversations focus on trade-offs, not data quality.
  • Promotions are predictable and easier to communicate.
  • Teams can explain structural decisions with evidence.

Common anti-patterns

  • Using Live for experimentation instead of scenarios.
  • Treating imports as one-time setup only.
  • Promoting scenarios without validating placement quality.
  • Measuring success by number of scenarios created rather than decisions improved.
