OCE.7:8 - Common Anti-Patterns and How to Avoid Them
| Anti-pattern | Repair |
| “The organization must mirror the product architecture.” | State the exact structures and pressure relation, then compare all four candidate forms and accepted losses. |
| “Every service has one autonomous team.” | Recover shared platform, data, safety, evidence, provider, capability, Operations, and governance relations before deciding autonomy. |
| “Refactor the monolith and coordination will disappear.” | Name the organization Work and relations that the technical change is expected to alter, and observe them after realization. |
| “Reorganize around customer journeys.” | Identify the service and contribution structures, decision authority, shared capabilities, provider boundaries, and journeys’ representation losses. |
| “The Conway workshop approved the target.” | Treat workshop output as candidate and participant evidence; make the separate architecture decisions under current authority. |
