Detailed Dimension Analysis

About this assessment: The Growth-Readiness Matrix combines two directional diagnostics developed by Novaris Transformation Lab — the Founder Dependency Index and a Growth Potential scorecard — to surface where an SME sits between organisational readiness and market opportunity. It is designed as a starting point for a structured organisational transformation engagement, not as a certified psychometric instrument.
