Days 1 to 3
Map the floor
We walk the floor across shifts, shadowing the decisions, escalations, and workarounds that still run through you or a few key people.
Step 3 · Paid · 1 to 2 weeks on-site
See exactly where your business still depends on you.
The Owner Dependency Audit maps every decision, judgment call, and piece of knowledge still running through you or a handful of people, then turns it into a one-page brief and a 30/90/180-day plan to close the gaps. No board decision needed to start.

Week 2
Name the decision-rights gaps
The specific places where authority, information, or judgment hasn't transferred to the team, ranked by risk.
Delivered in writing
One-page brief and 30/90/180-day plan
