Institutional Learning Architecture

Authority-Safe Update Channels

Definition

Pathways for institutional update that don't threaten the legitimacy structure. These channels frame learning as refinement rather than correction, evolution rather than reversal—allowing evidence integration without undermining authority investments.

Example

Framing policy change as 'building on previous work' rather than 'correcting previous errors' creates an authority-safe channel for the same update.
