Your business is working, but maybe not as well as it could be.
Revenue is coming in, and work gets done, but growth and profit aren’t matching effort and pushing harder isn’t fixing it.
It’s rarely an effort problem, usually it’s alignment.
PACE diagnoses business alignment.
When a business isn't getting the results it should, it usually isn't a performance problem. It's an alignment problem.
What the business says it stands for doesn't match how it operates. The structure that got it here isn't the structure it needs now and what the owner thinks is happening isn't what the team is actually experiencing.
Everyone's working hard, nothing looks ‘broken’, but the business is working harder than it needs to for the results it's getting.
The PACE Performance Alignment Model is a structured diagnostic of how your business is performing across the four drivers that determine whether a business is able to deliver on its purpose and potential. It surfaces the misalignments that are limiting results, and gives you a clear, prioritised plan to fix them.
How it works:
Diagnosing alignment.
Assessment:
Owner self-assessment: a 24-question survey assessing alignment across the four performance drivers
Owner deep dive: A structured two-hour conversation with the founder, owner or MD. I work through each of the four drivers with you, going beneath the surface of how the business actually operates, not just how it looks on paper.
Team survey: 10-15min team survey assessing understanding and alignment across the four performance drivers
Reports and Plan:
Scored Alignment Profile: summarises the owner-assessment score and team survey score for each pillar and provides insight into owner’s experience compared to the experience of those working in the business.
Performance Alignment Report: presents the findings for each PACE pillar. Each pillar shows the owner and team scores, what is working, where performance is being limited, the gap between owner and team perception, and the key insight and priority actions.
90-day Performance Alignment Plan: A focused, prioritised plan showing exactly what to address, in what order, over the next 90 days.
PACE measures the whole system, not only one part of it.
You receive a clear, evidence-based picture of where your business stands and where it’s losing performance as well as the 90-day plan to address the gaps.

The first step is a scoping conversation, a direct, no-obligation discussion about your business and whether the assessment is the right fit.
