Are You Drifting?
A Strategy Stack Diagnostic
Here’s a little gift for you this morning.
This helps put meat on the ideas in my pieces on Tottenham Hotspur, private credit, and the legal industry.
Enjoy!
Five questions. Two minutes. One score.
How to use this: Rate each question on a scale of 1–5. 1 = Not even close. 5 = Yes, that’s us.
1. Vision – Do you know what success looks like well enough to say “no” to what doesn’t fit?
2. Targeting – Do you know who your customer really is, not just who you wish it were?
3. Value – Do you know why customers choose you, in plain English that doesn’t sound like everyone else?
4. Resources – Do you have what you need to deliver on your strategy? Money. People. Systems.
5. Actions – Do you have a clear set of actions you take, not just review?
Total score (add 1–5 for each): ___ / 25
What your score means:
· 22–25: Strategic clarity. Protect it. Say no more.
· 18–21: Good, not great. Drift starts with “good enough.”
· 12–17: Drift has begun. You feel something is off.
· Below 12: Emergency. Hope is not a strategy.
Now what? This is a flashlight, not a solution. The full 20-question Strategic Health Scorecard is on my website.
