Uncomplicating Business Lab

The GPCS Self-Assessment

A 5-minute check-in to find your starting point.

Welcome. This is the Uncomplicating Business Self-Assessment. This assessment is built to help you to know, for real, where to put your energy first here in the Lab.

At the end of this assessment you'll get four scores — one for each pillar of the Uncomplicated Business Framework: Ground, Plan, Connect, Sell.

And then, whichever score is lowest? That's where you start. Not because that area is a deficit or a failure, but because it's the pillar of the four that — once it's running — will make the other three easier.

This assessment takes about 5 minutes. Go with your gut responses and answer honestly — there are no points for sounding good. You only get useful results if you allow yourself to be real about it all.

0  — Nope. This isn't something I'm doing at all right now.
1  — Rarely. I've done this once or twice; it's not yet a practice.
2  — Sometimes. It happens, but it's inconsistent.
3  — Most of the time. This is mostly there. I slip, but I notice and come back.
4  — Yes, consistently. This is real and working in my business right now.
Heads up — a few questions still need answers. Scroll up and finish them, then try again.

Your scores

All four pillars, side by side

Come back to this assessment whenever you want a check-in. The framework doesn't change. Your scores will.

Making business boring so the work can be fun.
