Before you begin
Most serious organisational problems don’t arrive suddenly. They slide from small signals into significant costs, often while everyone is busy and intentions are good. The Slippery Slope® Map helps you understand where your organisation sits and, more importantly, the direction in which it may be travelling.
In around five minutes, you’ll get a clear read on the factors that shape performance, culture, and careers. You will see which issues are being prevented, managed well, or allowed to escalate.
Anyone can complete it, but it’s likely to be of most value to leaders, HR and anyone else who is accountable for these matters.
The questions draw on our experience of helping organisations navigate challenging situations, insights from people at the sharp end and organisational psychology.
You’ll answer short questions across nine areas:
- Talent
- Performance
- Conduct
- Respect
- Management
- Sustainability
- Issues
- Change
- Values
A few things worth knowing:
- Depending on your role, you may choose to answer for your organisation as a whole, for your team, or for the parts you experience directly. All are valid.
- There are no right or wrong answers. For the most useful result, answer based on how things typically work in practice as opposed to how they’re intended to work.
- Each question has five response options. Some ask how strongly you agree or disagree with the statement; others ask how often the situation it describes happens in your organisation.
- You’ll receive an insight report to prompt reflection, conversation and next steps. The report has been generated based on the answers you provided. It is therefore based on your own perspective; it should not be read as a definitive assessment of your organisation.
Your responses are completely anonymous. This tool records your answers and results but never links them to your identity. The contact form you completed to access the tool is entirely separate. We may use aggregated, anonymous results for research and insight but these are never attributable to any individual or any organisation.
Most organisations have areas of real strength alongside pockets of risk, avoidance or skills gaps. The value of the Slippery Slope® Map isn’t simply identifying strengths and risks. It’s deciding where to act first.
A Slippery Slope® Clarity Call is a confidential 15-minute conversation to help leaders, HR and Legal/Compliance professionals interpret the results strategically. We’ll explore your results and which interventions are most likely to make a meaningful difference.
Our intention is to be helpful and it is not a sales pitch. We’ll also share any additional thinking or resources that we believe would genuinely help.
