What state is your team actually in?
Every team is in one of four states. Stable. Quietly slipping while the numbers still look fine. Fighting conditions outside its control. Or already stalling. Most managers can name the last one, because by then it has already cost them. The other three are harder to tell apart from the inside.
This diagnostic works out the most likely state of your team from things you have directly observed, then tells you how much that reading can be trusted. Seventeen questions. About four minutes.
Before you start: answer from memory of actual events. There are no wrong answers. But a guessed answer makes the result meaningless. “Can’t recall” is a valid and useful answer.

Your result is ready. Where should we send the full report?
Talk your result through. The Manager Gap Index is part of an ongoing research cohort. Clive Hays, Clover ERA’s co-founder, walks a small number of participants through their result each week: thirty minutes, your answers, what they mean, and what to do next. If you would like one of those conversations, reply to the report email and say so. We will also reach out to some participants directly.
