Enterprise Agility Leadership Tool
The Decision Gap Diagnostic
Are your teams waiting on the system around them?
A 10-minute leadership scorecard
Use it as a practical reflection tool for your leadership team before the Enterprise Agility Leadership Webinar with Giles Lindsay and ExoFutures.
- Score six connected leadership areas.
- Identify where decision drag may be slowing progress.
- Use your result to choose where leadership attention should go first.
Why this matters
The gap is often between delivery capacity and decision capacity.
Many organisations have capable teams, active delivery and strong intent. Progress still slows when the system around the work cannot decide, prioritise, fund and adapt with enough clarity.
Decision clarity
Do people know who can decide what, or do important choices keep returning for repeat debate?
Priority focus
Are real trade-offs made, or does everything stay important until teams absorb the cost?
Value visibility
Can leaders see where effort is creating value, learning and strategic progress?
Funding alignment
Does funding follow strategic outcomes, or does it keep work locked into legacy structures?
Escalation flow
Do blockers move quickly to the right level, with ownership and follow-through?
Adaptability
Can the organisation adjust without creating confusion, overload or hidden work?
How to read your result
Score based on what happens when pressure rises.
Do not score based on ambition. Score based on what happens when trade-offs are hard and different leaders need to make connected choices.
Stuck
Decision drag is likely reducing delivery impact. Start with the lowest-scoring area and make the first leadership choice visible.
Stretched
The basics are present, but pressure exposes inconsistency. Pick one area where clearer ownership would improve flow quickly.
Strong
Good foundations exist. The next step is to protect decision quality as scale, AI, complexity or demand increases.
