Operations readiness check

Is the work growing faster than the way you work?

Check every statement that is true most weeks—not only during your busiest season. This is a signal finder, not a personality test for your organization.

Role clarity worksheet

Who owns what?

Use this worksheet for recurring work, a new initiative, or the thing everyone thought someone else was handling. One accountable owner per row. A committee is not a person. Yes, I said it.

Board governance scorecard

Is your board governing—or just meeting?

Check the practices your board demonstrates consistently. “We talked about it once” does not count. Governance becomes real through repeatable practice.

This educational reflection tool is not legal, tax, or accounting advice.

From insight to action

Application is the work.

The harder part is deciding what applies to your organization, what comes first, and how to move people through the change. That is where I come in.
