Overview
The Manager Enablement Audit helps organizations identify and strengthen the systems that sustain their middle managers, the people who connect strategy to daily operations.
Through data, dialogue, and design, we uncover where your current systems help managers thrive and where they need more clarity, consistency, and support.
Middle managers often carry the weight of communication, accountability, and culture. When they’re well supported, your organization moves with focus and flow.
Why It Matters
Managers are the backbone of every organization yet they’re often the least supported group.
Without clear structures for coaching, feedback, and decision-making, even strong managers can burn out or disengage.
The Manager Enablement Audit reveals what’s working, what’s missing, and how to create systems that make leadership more consistent, connected, and sustainable.
