Rate where you are. Then say it in your own words.
Six questions across the five dimensions that decide whether an executive’s expertise is ready to become an independent practice. For each, mark where you stand — then describe it. You’ll get a readiness score and a personalized brief you can keep.
What you’ll walk away with: a readiness score, a measured read on each dimension, and three concrete next steps drawn from what you actually rated and wrote.

What makes now the time — rather than a year ago, or a year from now?
II · ValueI can name the high-stakes problem I solve better than most — and prove it.
The problem you solve, and a specific result that proves it.

Who they are, the situation they’re in, and your edge over a larger firm.

The service you’d lead with, roughly scoped, and how you’d price it.
V · FoundationI’m financially and practically ready to begin.
Your runway, and the real blockers — financial, practical, or personal.
—What do you most want help thinking through? Optional
Optional — it tells us where a conversation would be most useful.
