How we work on execution coherence

Our work follows five steps. Each one goes a step further than the last, and you can stop at any point. Each step is set out in full on our ECI site.

Five steps, each keeping more speed. Take the Challenge, five minutes. Take it to the room, twenty minutes with your own team or ninety minutes with us at your next board meeting. Run the Baseline, four to fifteen weeks. Complete the Build, ninety days. Sustain it, quarterly.

1. Take the Challenge

Can you see where your speed is going? Ten questions your board should be able to answer. Five minutes, on your own, to check you are looking in the right place. If you want to go further, twelve more questions show your phase and financial trajectory, sent to you by email.

2. Take it to the room

Does your team see the same? The same ten questions, answered by your leadership team. Twenty minutes on your own, or ninety with us at your next board meeting, where we read where the room splits.

3. Run the Baseline

What is actually true? A full measurement across the four dimensions, drawn mostly from records your company already keeps. It names the dimension holding the others back, and what it is costing. Four to fifteen weeks, depending on size.

4. Complete the Build

How do you fix it? The 90-Day Coherence Build fixes what the Baseline finds. It is not a slowdown. It is a way to keep more of the speed you already have.

5. Sustain it

How do you keep it? The ECI becomes a quarterly read, so you keep the speed you have gained rather than lose it again over the next year.
