Fifteen questions across the five areas that actually determine whether a company can grow. Answer for a normal week, not your best one.
You'll see which of the five stages you're likely in, where your dimensions sit, and which one is holding the others back.
Every stage comes with specific next steps that move a company forward from that point. Usually smaller than people expect.
Does the work hold its shape when you step away?
How much of your company runs on repeatable process versus your personal involvement. This isn't about paperwork. It's about whether things stay standing without you in the room.
A team that executes, or a team that waits?
Whether you've built decision-makers or task-takers. Most owners are further along here than they feel, and further behind than they hope.
Do you know why you're profitable?
How clearly you can see your own numbers, and how fast. Not whether the money is there, but whether you can explain it.
The one that decides how far the others can go.
Your relationship to the business. What you'd have to give up to grow, and what you'd get back.
Do you set your terms or accept them?
Pricing, client selection, and the work you're willing to walk away from.
