Five questions. One initiative. A verdict that names where the work will stall — and what to do first.
Most organizations do not fail from lack of talent. They fail because the work is never fully seen.
This diagnostic makes it visible. What it reveals is almost always already costing you.
Before you begin: choose one initiative in flight. The one most visible to the board, the one most delayed, or the one most cited when something goes wrong.
Answer honestly — not aspirationally.
