Manager Operating System Diagnostic.
Twelve questions across six dimensions. Scored against vertical-stage benchmarks. Results page with a prioritized 90-day action list. The same diagnostic we use to start every paid engagement — anchored in Gallup’s finding that managers drive 70% of variance in employee engagement.
Talent Acquisition
2 questions
How structured, calibrated, and measured your hiring is — from scorecards to outcome tracking.
Total Rewards
2 questions
Compensation bands, leveling clarity, equity strategy, and pay-equity readiness.
Performance
2 questions
Performance cycles, calibration discipline, and how managers handle low performance.
Culture
2 questions
Engagement measurement, onboarding, and the everyday signals of a healthy team.
HR Operations
2 questions
HR tech stack maturity and compliance readiness across pay-equity, transparency, and labor-law surfaces.
Leadership
2 questions
How first-time managers are built, and how the CEO makes people decisions. Anchored in Gallup's 70% finding.
Take the diagnostic.
12 questions across 6 dimensions of your people function. Should take about 4–6 minutes. You’ll get a scored report with a 90-day priority list at the end.

How this compares.
Manager-effectiveness assessments aren’t new. Gallup ships the Q12 (the original instrument; ours abbreviates from their 12 questions). Lattice, Culture Amp, and 15Five run continuous-feedback platforms with manager-effectiveness scoring. Most are good. None do what’s below.
Three things are different here. Vertical specificity: fintech operating context — banking-talent migration, dual-track ladders, compliance/risk org structure. Cross-functional dimensions: not just engagement; we score across Talent Acquisition, Total Rewards, Performance, Culture, HR Operations, Leadership. Output: 90-day priority list focused on your three weakest dimensions, not a 30-item generic report.
The diagnostic is one node in a connected system — five pillar playbooks (Operating Model, Recruiting, Compensation, Manager Development, AI Workforce Transformation), the Manager Operating System Nudge Engine, and the AI Readiness Diagnostic. The 90-day list points you at the specific deeper read for each weakest dimension.
If you already run Q12 + a continuous-feedback platform and have a working calibration cadence, you’re probably in the top quartile and don’t need this. If you’re standing up your first formal manager review and want a vertical-specific reference point, ours is built for that.
