Framework
Sixteen principles across foundation, mechanisms, social infrastructure, and governance accountability.
Original framework · institutional-design practice · active system
The home of Nervous-System-Aware Governance: a research-led framework for seeing and governing how institutions shape the cognitive and physiological conditions of the people inside them.
The governing proposition
Institutions already regulate nervous-system states. NSAG makes those effects visible, documentable, measurable, and governable.
Policies, technologies, procedures, language, built environments, cognitive load, relationships, identity, agency, and power are not neutral administrative details. They create conditions of threat, safety, stress, trust, recovery, attention, and participation. NSAG translates that premise into governance criteria and institutional action.
What RN built
A modular practice—not a consultancy placeholder.
Sixteen principles across foundation, mechanisms, social infrastructure, and governance accountability.
Fifteen sector-specific modules using scenarios, six governance dimensions, evidence, maturity tiers, recommendations, radar results, and reports.
Governance assessments, gap analyses, written audits, action plans, workshops, profiles, and continuing advisory.
NSAG Compass, Brief, Index, and Profile connect monitoring, research synthesis, benchmarking, and institution-specific decisions.
A fifteen-session continuing-education curriculum spanning legal, medical, nursing, psychology, social-work, and public-health audiences.
Sport NSAG demonstrates how the framework extends into scheduling, travel, recovery, cognition, culture, and athlete-welfare governance.
