Run the Diagnostics: Trace Where Flow Breaks Between Strategy and Operations

Every enterprise leaks power somewhere between strategy and operations.

Run this 60-second diagnostic to find your break point.

Objective

Turn intuition into measurement.

Every enterprise leaks power somewhere between strategy and operations.

This diagnostic turns that leak into visible data.

Stage 1 – Identify the Break

Most organizations don’t fail because of effort. They fail because intent never reaches execution intact.

Between P1 (Strategy) and P6 (Operations), flow bends, breaks, and diffuses.

Diagnostics Question

Where does your enterprise’s flow break? ▪ P1 Strategy not clear ▪ P2 Process not standardized ▪ P3 System logic not enforcing ▪ P6 Operations breaking coherence

When you pick one, you reveal the fracture line in your enterprise anatomy.

Stage 2 – Decode Your Vote

Each choice maps directly to a structural layer.

Perspective	Anatomy Meaning	When It Breaks
P1 Strategy	Direction and value targets	Confused priorities, vague metrics
P2 Process	Sequenced business activities	Rework, handoffs, silo loops
P3 Systems / Logic	Rules and data flows	Workarounds, shadow systems
P4 Component Specs	APIs, tables, screens, configs	Integration gaps, version conflicts
P5 Implementation Tasks	Build / modify / deploy	Scope creep, rollback cycles
P6 Operations	Daily run and feedback loops	Instability, manual patching

Your vote exposes the node where design intelligence stopped flowing.

Stage 3 – Quantify It

Use the P1–P6 Flow Scorecard. Rate each layer 0 to 2.

Score	Meaning	Action
0–4	Red	Diagnose now – flow collapsed
5–8	Amber	Contain and stage fix
9–12	Green	Flow stable – scale

Example: 2 (P1) + 1 (P2) + 0 (P3) = 3 → Red.

Your strategy reaches only 25 % of execution.

Stage 4 – Act on the Data

1. Red zones → Run a one-hour flow-trace session; connect P2→P3.

2. Amber zones → Assign temporary ownership; re-score in 7 days.

3. Green zones → Lock governance and document exceptions for reuse.

You’re not collecting opinions; you’re measuring continuity.

Stage 5 – Engage for Debrief

Send your score to the ICMG FastTrack Desk. Receive a 20-minute debrief with:

• 3 diagnostic findings

• 5 structural actions That’s your execution X-ray.
