Five Dimensions

Where Potential Gets Lost

Each dimension reveals a structural layer where human potential is either unleashed or trapped.

🔮
Perception
Your strongest dimension — people see problems and opportunities. But seeing without permission to act creates frustration.
0
Emerging
🤖
Amplification
People experience AI as replacement, not leverage. 53% of amplification potential is lost to fear and poor framing.
0
Constrained
🌱
Sustainability
Your people are being extracted, not invested in. 63% of sustainable capacity is undermined by burnout patterns.
0
Suppressed
🔓
Permission
Your biggest blocker — 66% of potential expression is structurally prevented by hierarchy, process, and fear of overstepping.
0
Suppressed
⚡
Activation
Your weakest score — 71% of activation energy has no pathway. Ideas die in inboxes. Talent waits for permission that never comes.

Department Analysis

Potential Across Teams

Not all departments trap potential equally. The gaps between teams reveal where cultural and structural issues concentrate.

Department UPS 🔮 Perc. 🔓 Perm. ⚡ Act. 🤖 Amp. 🌱 Sust.
Operations has the lowest UPS at 31 — Permission at 19 suggests fundamental autonomy issues. Marketing's Activation score of 22 reveals creative teams with ideas but no pathways to execute them. Product leads at 56, driven by strong Perception (72), but even they struggle with Sustainability (38).
Creator Archetype Overlay

Where Genius Is Trapped

Each archetype brings unique genius. When the organization blocks the dimension they need most, that genius dies.

🏗️
Architects — 22% of workforce
Permission-blocked at 66. They see systems that need redesigning but aren't allowed to touch them. Your largest talent group is structurally silenced.
Permission Gap: 66
🔭
Visionaries — 15% of workforce
Activation-starved at 74. They see the future but have zero infrastructure to build toward it. The highest gap of any archetype.
Activation Gap: 74
🔗
Connectors — 12% of workforce
Permission-blocked at 71. They could bridge silos but the culture keeps departments isolated. Cross-functional collaboration is suffocated.
Permission Gap: 71
🌿
Nurturers — 4% of workforce
Sustainability-crushed at 72. Your caretakers — the people who hold teams together — are burning out fastest. Quiet crisis.
Sustainability Gap: 72
Strategic Priorities

What to Do Next

Data-driven recommendations based on your organization's specific pattern of trapped potential.

🔓 Priority 1

Permission Structures

Launch a 'Genius Time' pilot: 4 hours/week for employees to work on projects outside their role. Target Architects and Connectors first — your two largest permission-blocked groups (34% of workforce). Measure: track number of cross-team initiatives after 90 days.

⚡ Priority 2

Activation Infrastructure

Create a cross-functional Innovation Council. Invite Visionaries and Catalysts to lead. Allocate 5% of team budgets for experimentation. Give every idea a 48-hour response SLA. Kill the "submit and wait" culture.

🤖 Priority 3

AI Narrative Shift

Your Amplification score (47) reveals people experience AI as threatening. Reframe: host 'AI Amplifies You' workshops showing how AI frees people for creative work. Start with Product (highest readiness) and expand. Frame AI as a genius-multiplier, not a replacement.

🌱 Priority 4

Sustainability Audit

Sustainability at 37 means your people are being extracted, not invested in. Audit workload distribution across departments. Introduce monthly capacity check-ins. Focus on Operations (31 UPS) — they're closest to systemic breakdown.
