The Systems Lab Index
Founder-led companies often experience structural strain as they grow.
The Systems Lab Index helps identify what development stage your company is entering.
The assessment takes approximately 5-7 minutes.
After completing the diagnostic, you will receive a report explaining:
your company’s organizational stage
areas of structural pressure
signals of decision bottlenecks or role ambiguity
What Happens After The Systems Lab Index
Some founders simply use the index as a tool to better understand how their organization is evolving and where they may need focus on to smooth organizational inconsistencies.
Others choose to explore the results more deeply through an Organizational Architecture Intensive.
