# Continuity Through Change Events
## M&A, re-orgs, and platform migrations without identity loss

## Core stance
Most damage during change is not technical.
It is **loss of meaning**.

Continuity ensures organizations survive change without forgetting who they are.

## High-risk change events
- Mergers & acquisitions
- Leadership turnover
- Re-organizations
- Platform migrations

## Continuity protections
- Intent capture before change
- Decision freeze points
- Memory transfer rituals
- Post-change drift scans

## Exercises
- Identify one upcoming change event
- Capture pre-change intent
- Define post-change continuity checks

## Suggested next step
Create a continuity plan for the next major change.
