⚠️ Cautions

  • • Don't score aspirational vs. current state
  • • Avoid letting politics influence scoring
  • • Don't ignore cultural and soft factors
  • • Consider methodology-specific requirements
  • • Account for change fatigue and capacity
  • • Validate scores with objective evidence

🎯 Success Tips

  • • Build coalitions of support before starting
  • • Address foundational gaps first
  • • Celebrate quick wins and progress
  • • Maintain momentum through communication

Readiness assessment is not a one-time activity. Organizations are dynamic, and readiness levels change. Regular pulse checks help you adjust your transformation approach and maintain momentum through inevitable challenges.

I've learned that technical readiness often gets overemphasized while cultural readiness gets underestimated. The soft factors - trust, psychological safety, and willingness to learn - are often the biggest predictors of success.
