The OODA loop (Observe, Orient, Decide, Act), originally a military decision-making framework, is invoked as a lens for the game/strategy analogy in team design. The 'Orient' step — building an accurate shared understanding of the current environment and best path forward — is usually treated as an individual cognitive task.
The framing here treats orienting as something a team should do together, not something each person does alone before contributing to group discussion. Ties into Making a Game: Co-Designed vs. Political Work Environments: a co-designed game requires the group to actually share an orientation about what game they're playing and what winning looks like, not just individually adapt to survive it.
