Signature Methodology
The Pyramid Framework
A maturity lens for examining Foundation, Structure, Alignment, Optimization and Transformation. It is distinct from the three-tier communication model described in the memoir.
What it helps you examine
Examine whether the foundations can support the proposed next stage.
- Foundation
- Structure
- Alignment

The idea in practice
A five-level maturity model that prevents leaders from scaling ambition before the underlying human and operating layers can hold it.
Situations to consider
- Enterprise transformation sequencing
- Capability-roadmap design
- Program recovery
Questions and actions
- Test the foundation
- Make structure explicit
- Align authority and behavior
- Optimize only what can hold
- Transform from a stable base
Questions to explore
Is this the ClarityOS Engagement Roadmap?
