The COMPEL Glossary Graph visualizes relationships between framework terminology, showing how concepts interconnect across domains, stages, and pillars. Term nodes cluster by pillar affiliation while cross-references reveal semantic dependencies — for example, how risk appetite connects to control effectiveness, model governance, and assurance requirements. This network representation helps practitioners navigate the framework vocabulary and understand that COMPEL terminology forms a coherent conceptual system rather than isolated definitions.
COMPEL Glossary / resistance-analysis
Resistance analysis
A mapping of change resistance by type — rational, experiential, political, values-based — plus diagnosis of the underlying concern driving each instance.
What this means in practice
AI change requires this diagnosis because resistance often reflects legitimate concerns (job security, agency, dignity) that compliance-and-training campaigns cannot address.
Synonyms
resistance diagnosis , change resistance mapping
