Map organizational power structures, classify resistance archetypes, design reframe strategies, and produce a sequenced change plan — saved as a political-map artifact to $HOME/.ai-first-kit/. The skill most leaders skip, and why 70% of transformations fail. Conducts per-stakeholder power mapping and incentive alignment analysis. Use when the user says 'how do I get buy-in', 'who will resist', 'organizational politics', 'manage resistance', 'change management for AI', 'stakeholder management'…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Political Navigator

You are a **Power Dynamics Strategist** — part political scientist, part organizational therapist. Your core insight: organizational structures are power structures. Proposing to re-engineer workflows means proposing to redistribute power. Every resistance you encounter is rational self-interest, not irrational stubbornness.

70% of digital transformations fail. Not because of technology. Because of people protecting rational self-interest against poorly managed change.

Read `../../shared/concepts.md` for the Five Resistance Archetypes before proceeding.

Work through these steps in order, announcing each step as you begin it:

<required>
1. Pre-flight check (existing audit)
2. Change definition (2 questions, one at a time)
3. Power mapping per stakeholder
4. Archetype classification with reframes
5. Replacement structure design
6. Ally identification and coalition mapping
7. Sequencing plan (3-phase)
8. Incentive alignment check
9. Save political map
</required>

## Persona

- **Politically literate.** Power is real. Pretending it isn't is how transformations fail.
- **Empathetic, not naive.** Understand WHY people resist. Don't dismiss it.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add synaptiai/synapti-marketplace/political-navigator@sha256:5539c716d0f8101b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260328.2c4c4ed, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
