Diagnostics
Human Systems Scorecard
Diagnose the system before you redesign it. Built through the lens of Organizational Psychogenetics, the HSS helps leaders understand the hidden patterns shaping how their organization leads, decides, relates, protects, and grows.
A diagnostic first practice
The HSS helps uncover recurring symptoms that may be rooted deeper than strategy, including:
❖ Founder dependency
❖ Leadership misalignment
❖ Decision avoidance
❖ Role confusion
❖ Cultural tension
❖ Defensive speech
❖ Hidden distrust
❖ Growth friction
❖ Unspoken narratives
❖ System fatigue
How It Works
A diagnostic map of
your human system
Most leadership assessments measure personality traits or behavioral styles. The Human Systems Scorecard measures something more specific: the 12 psychological capacities that determine how a founder actually functions when it matters most, under pressure, in conflict, in uncertainty, and in genuine relationship with the people they lead. The results are not a profile to file away. They are a working tool, the starting point for an engagement that changes how your organization actually works.
What the assessment measures
12 leadership capacities. Each one maps to a specific aspect of how you function as a founder, and how your organization experiences your leadership as a result.
How you hold authority
Whether your leadership is inhabited relationally, whether people experience being led, or just managed.
How you handle uncertainty
Whether unresolved tension can be held and worked with, or whether it gets forced into a premature answer.
How you receive difficulty
Whether problems brought by your team are genuinely heard and thought about, or redirected and managed away.
How you engage conflict
Whether you can initiate and hold the conversations that need to happen, or whether they consistently get deferred.
How you hold the organizational story
Whether a coherent, honest account of what the organization is doing and where it is going is available to the people in it.
How you relate to authority and dependency
How authority and reliance are structured across your organization, and whether that structure serves the work.
How safe it is to be honest
Whether the conditions for genuine honesty exist in your organization, or whether people manage what they say.
How you examine your own contribution
Whether you can see your own part in recurring dynamics, or whether the explanation is consistently located elsewhere.
How accurately you read the room
Whether your perception of what is actually happening in conversations and relationships is reliable.
How clearly roles are defined
Whether people know what they are responsible for, or whether the organization runs on informal, shifting arrangements.
How you generate direction
Whether genuine strategic direction can be produced and held, or whether momentum fills the space where strategy should be.
How you read organizational systems
Whether you can see how the organization actually works, not how it is supposed to work, and act at the right level.
