Jordan Vallejo is the founder of the Transformation Management Institute and the principal architect of a dependency-ordered scientific canon for transformation governance. His work formalizes the conditions required for coherent system claims, reliable interpretation, and analyzable transformation under constraint.

He developed the Institute’s core program stack: System Existence Theory (SET) establishes when “system” is an admissible unit of analysis at a stated boundary. Physics of Becoming (POB) specifies constraint-governed persistence across time. The General Theory of Interpretation (GTOI) models interpretation as a system behavior operating under uncertainty, mediation, and contested signals. Within GTOI, Meaning System Science (MSS) treats meaning as a coordination science and specifies conditions for interpretive reliability. Transformation Science analyzes coordinated change attempts as time-extended system events under constraint and supplies the analytic substrate for applied transformation practice.

Alongside his research, Vallejo works in industry within large financial services environments, where coordination, authority, and accountability must remain intact across complex operational and technological interfaces. This parallel practice keeps the canon grounded in live system constraints rather than retrospective explanation.

At the Institute, he stewards versioned publications, maintains official terminology, and directs Transformation Management as a professional discipline that operationalizes the research into standards, diagnostics, and governance instruments. A central applied focus is AI-mediated interpretation and digital trust, including decision environments where evidence is indirect and judgment is distributed across automated systems.
