Siven Group · Executive Insights Assessment

A Bespoke Diagnostic for Program Health

EIA gives your C-suite a crisp, third-party readout on transformation program health— grounded in Seven Disciplines and 76 Critical Success Factors—without creating a new consulting footprint. It's a Building Inspection Report for your program.

The Assessment

Clarity without the consulting overhead

EIA is structured around what "good" looks like—and where observable gaps imply risk to scope, schedule, budget, and benefits.

✓
What EIA IS
  • A structured executive-interview assessment mapped against Siven Group's Seven Disciplines and 76 Critical Success Factors.
  • A clear framework: what "good" looks like vs. what is actually observed—and what that gap implies for risk.
  • A fast, low-disruption diagnostic: typically 90 minutes per executive over 1-2 weeks with no demand on project teams.
  • A vehicle to produce 5–10 prioritized actions the C-suite can align around, framed in business terms—not technology jargon.
✗
What EIA is NOT
  • Not a sales channel for implementation work—Siven Group does not follow the assessment with a proposal for a large delivery team.
  • Not a deep forensic audit that stalls the program.
  • Not a generic "maturity model" exercise; it is a bespoke assessment of this program against a comprehensive definition of good.
  • Not a blame exercise; the tone is empathetic and inspection-oriented—more like a building inspection before closing on a house.
Process

How the EIA works

A structured series of confidential interviews with your executive team, analyzed against our proven framework.

01
Executive Interviews

1:1 sessions with CFO, CEO, CIO, Executive Sponsor, and Transformation Director. 60–90 minutes each, conducted by a Siven Group Coach.

02
CSF Rubrics

Each interview is mapped against 76 Critical Success Factors across the Seven Disciplines—defining "good," observing gaps, and surfacing implications.

03
Analysis & Readout

Findings are synthesized into a clear deliverable: root causes beneath symptoms, what high-performers do to fix weaknesses, and prioritized next steps.

04
Workout Session

An in-person, mediated workout session to synthesize the findings, define and prioritize action steps, and frame communications to the program team and the Board.
