🩻 Business MRI™
Weekly full-body scan across your connected systems.
✅ Healthy tissue
Working well — protect it.
Functioning at baseline
Operating at 69 against a personal baseline of 68. Protect this — do not add load here to compensate elsewhere.
🦠 Diseased tissue
Active problems degrading the organism.
13 concurrent priorities — cognitive overload
When everything is a priority, nothing is. Teams report confusion and objectives slip.
Oxygen shortage: pipeline -9%, lead flow -13%
Low pipeline today is low revenue in 1-2 quarters. The body feels this before the P&L does.
Sprint completion 71% and falling — muscular fatigue
Falling delivery under constant load is fatigue, not weakness. Pushing harder makes it worse.
33% of revenue from one customer — compromised immunity
One account decides your fate. A single churn event becomes an existential infection.
19.8% of activity now happens after hours — burnout marker expressed
Sustained after-hours load is the most reliable leading indicator of attrition spikes.
🩹 Scar tissue
Old wounds that healed wrong — process debt.
Sales→delivery handoff scarring
Three process patches layered over a 2024 churn incident. Each handoff now takes 4 approvals where one would do. Functional, but inflexible under load.
Normalized heroics
Past crunch periods healed into culture: after-hours work is praised in channel history. The organism has learned to mask fatigue.
🔮 Hidden risks
Probabilistic findings invisible to dashboards.
probability · 6 months horizon
Revenue target miss
Pipeline contraction at the current rate converts to a revenue shortfall in 1-2 quarters. Companies with this signature missed targets in most observed cases.
probability · 3 months horizon
Employee churn spike
eNPS decay plus rising after-hours activity is the canonical pre-attrition signature. The first resignations typically arrive 6-10 weeks after this pattern appears.
probability · 12 months horizon
External funding required
At the current burn trajectory and growth rate, organic cashflow does not reach sustainability inside the runway window.
💊 Recommended treatments
Launch a 2-week prospecting sprint + reactivate the dormant-lead nurture campaign
Refilling the top of funnel now prevents a revenue trough next quarter.
Enforce the upcoming recovery week: no launches, no new projects, training and documentation only
Elite teams periodize. Recovery is not lost output — it is what makes the next sprint possible.
Kill or pause 7 initiatives — get the active list under 6
Strategic focus is the highest-leverage treatment for drift. Fewer priorities, faster completion.
Cut next sprint's committed scope 25% and schedule a recovery week after it ships
Planned under-commitment restores completion rates faster than heroics. This is periodization.
Set a 2-quarter target to bring top-account share under 20%; weight new-logo pipeline accordingly
Diversified revenue is the organizational equivalent of a strong immune system.
