Around 70% of change efforts fail — because they change the slides, not the organisation. This reads whether yours will stick. Six questions.
Answer for how change actually goes in your organisation or team. The questions look at whether change here touches the layer that genuinely moves people, or only the visible one.
The Change Readiness Diagnostic is a free organisational change readiness assessment from Impact Thinking — 6 statements, about three minutes, built directly on the frameworks published on our research desk. It reads whether your change will hold: behaviour versus structure, surfaced resistance, named assumptions, and whether the leaders themselves are changing observably.
It’s built for leaders and transformation owners about to launch — or relaunch — change. The free read returns your band and profile immediately, with an interpretation of what the result means and the one thing it suggests you can’t currently see. It pairs with Systems & Conversations, the programme built on the same ground.
It reads whether your change will hold: behaviour versus structure, surfaced resistance, named assumptions, and whether the leaders themselves are changing observably. It reads 6 statements and returns a banded profile with a deep interpretation.
About three minutes — 6 statements on a five-point scale. The read is free and immediate: your band, your profile, and the blind spot it points to. A full personalised report, benchmarked against other leaders, is £95; a whole-team report is £495.
It’s a structured self-assessment built on the frameworks published on our research desk — designed for development, team performance and measurement, not for hiring decisions. For selection contexts we run structured engagements where instruments inform, and never replace, human judgment.
Because change operates on structures while behaviour is anchored in commitments people already hold — usually unspoken. Until those competing commitments are surfaced and worked, behaviour reverts. The diagnostic reads your exposure before launch.
