Find the single sub-domain most holding back the others, so the work fixes the cause rather than a symptom.
The five sub-domains sit in a dependency order. Upstream weakness constrains everything downstream, so it is fixed first. Read the order, then enter your scores from the assessment and apply the rule.
| Order | Sub-domain | Why it sits here |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (most upstream) | Culture definition | Everything else is unanchored without a defined, intentional culture to build on. |
| 2 | Collaboration and trust | The relational foundation; people do not engage or collaborate where they do not feel safe. |
| 3 | Engagement | Built on a defined culture and real trust; commitment needs both beneath it. |
| 4 | Wellbeing and burnout | Protects the whole; but acute burnout is a here-and-now harm addressed immediately. |
| 5 | Culture measurement and sustaining | The sustaining layer that keeps the rest visible and holding over time. |
Your binding constraint is the lowest-scoring sub-domain that sits highest in this dependency order. If two are tied, the one higher in the order is the constraint. One override: acute burnout is addressed immediately regardless of sequence.
| Sub-domain | Your level (1 to 5) | Dependency order |
|---|---|---|
| Culture definition | 1 | |
| Collaboration and trust | 2 | |
| Engagement | 3 | |
| Wellbeing and burnout | 4 (acute = immediate) | |
| Culture measurement and sustaining | 5 |
Reading the result: you cannot engage a team that does not trust each other, or sustain a culture you never defined, the upstream constraint caps everything below it. Carry the constraint and all five scores into the Prioritized Culture Action Plan.
