Abstract

This work presents S3LF, a socio-technical system in the form of a mobile application for
facilitating a ​ digital self-determinant governance experience in collaborative organizations. It
consists of a technologically mediated adaptation of the decision making framework Sociocracy 3.0
a.k.a S3, turning it into an asynchronous and remote process with a facilitation mediated through the
user experience (UX) and interaction design. S3LF enables digital and distributed organizations
such as Collaborative Networked Organizations (CNOs) to adopt self-determinant governancemethodologies such as S3, and promises a faster onboarding into self-determinant governance and
higher throughput of self-determinant decision making. Furthermore, we introduce in S3LF a
self-diagnosis module that reports the level of self-determination perceived by each decision maker
of the group for each decision made, over different contextual situations; whose analysis has the
potential to allow organizations to self-correct dominant situations.
