Diagnostic

Who the Diagnostic is for

The Vibenometry Diagnostic is designed for leaders who:

• Feel their organization or team is “fighting itself” and can’t quite articulate why.

• Are responsible for a critical function (revenue, product, operations, transformation) where misalignment is expensive and increasingly visible.

• Are planning significant change — AI adoption, a reorg, new compensation structures, an aggressive hiring push — and want to understand the human system before pulling big levers.

• Want an external, technically-minded partner to give them a clear read without internal politics.

What you get

1. A clear view of your decision dynamics
We show you how decisions actually get made: who really holds influence, where things slow down, and how information and emotion move through the system when stakes are high.

2. A map of hidden friction points
We identify the 3–7 human-system issues that are doing the most damage — conflicting incentives, unclear ownership, misaligned narratives, structural confusion, or cultural patterns that block execution.

3. Prioritized recommendations
You get a short, sharp set of recommendations for the next 30–90 days: what to stop, what to start, and what to redesign. You can run with these yourself, or partner with Vibenometry for deeper design and implementation.

4. A shared language for leadership
The Diagnostic gives your leadership team a common way to talk about behavior and decision-making — moving conversations out of vague “culture” talk and into concrete system design.

How the Diagnostic works

Phase 1 – Intake & Context (Days 1–3)
We start by understanding your situation and constraints.

• Briefing with the sponsor (Founder/CEO, COO, or functional leader).

• Review of org charts, key metrics, incentives, and existing strategy or transformation plans.

• Alignment on where you’re feeling friction and what “success” would look like if we changed nothing else except the human dynamics.

Phase 2 – Fieldwork & Pattern Scan (Days 4–10)
We go see how your system behaves in the wild.

• 1:1 conversations with a curated set of leaders and frontline operators.

• Observation of a small number of critical meetings or decision moments.

• Rapid scan of incentives, communication flows, and the “unwritten rules” that quietly govern behavior.

Phase 3 – Synthesis & Readout (Days 11–15)
We pull the patterns together and make them actionable.

• A concise findings document: what we saw, how it connects, and why it matters.

• A live readout session (60–90 minutes) with your leadership to walk through the map, discuss implications, and prioritize actions.

• Clear options for what to do next, including the choice to implement changes yourself or to engage Vibenometry for deeper work.

Pricing (example range)

Every Diagnostic is scoped around your context — size of the org, number of stakeholders, and how deep you want us to go.

To give you a sense of scale, most Vibenometry Diagnostics land in the $10,000–$25,000 range for a 2–3 week engagement. Smaller, tightly focused diagnostics or deeper, multi-team versions are possible.

We’ll agree the exact scope, deliverables, and fee together before we start, so there are no surprises — just a clear shared understanding of what we’re doing and why.

All figures on this page are indicative ranges, not formal quotes. Your engagement will be tailored to your situation.

When a Diagnostic is not a fit

A Diagnostic is probably not the right tool if:

• You only want a motivational workshop or generic “culture training”.

• You’re looking for a large consulting team to produce hundreds of slides.

• There is no executive sponsor willing to act on what we find.

In those cases, a different kind of support will serve you better.

Share a bit of context and we’ll respond with whether the Diagnostic is likely to be a high-leverage move for you right now. (sales@vibenometry.com)
