Archetypes - your secret superpower
summary
Shows a practical method—the archetypes funnel—to go from chaos to initial boundaries: identify the business model (trade / service / product), select suspected domain archetypes, then validate with question-and-language heuristics. Demonstrates three reusable archetypes Inventory, Template and execution, Group decision-making with concrete behaviors (reserve/replenish, draft→launch, multi‑party approval), a context‑map blueprint for each, and a workshop-tested funnel that produces immediate architectural starts and clearer responsibilities so teams hit working solutions faster.
