Canonical Definition
Coordination Diagnostics & Intelligence is an emerging field focused on identifying and understanding the structural forces that govern how work moves through organizations—and why it breaks down. The primary unit of analysis is not the individual or the team, but the coordination structure that shapes collective action.
The field treats coordination as a distinct discipline requiring systematic diagnostic methods, separate from communication improvement, culture change, leadership development, or process optimization.
