Know exactly who's at risk
of leaving — before they tell you.
You already know something is off. This tells you exactly what.
A structured diagnostic workbook for founder-led companies
Spot risk. Score it. Act before it turns into a resignation.
Instant access. Built to complete in one sitting. Use again quarterly.
No prep. No team required.
Already used by founders at 5–50 person firms to spot risk before it becomes a resignation.
This is not
a survey.
25 structured questions across five retention touchpoints. Each one maps to a known failure point in founder-led teams. This is not opinion. It's a scored diagnostic.
These are the patterns
the workbook is built to surface.
If any of those landed — that's the diagnostic working before you've even started. There are 25 questions like those inside, mapped to the five places retention breaks down. The workbook shows you which ones are active in your firm right now.
By the time you get the email,
the decision was made months ago.
Most founders don't see the moment the decision is made.
You feel something.
Engagement drops quietly.
Job search begins.
You're blindsided.
The Retention Reality Check™ is designed to catch what's happening at Month 1 — before the pattern becomes a decision.
The founders who keep their best people aren't better managers. They're better diagnosticians. They know where to look. They know what the signals mean. And they move before the conversation becomes a goodbye.
You can't fix what you can't see.
Run the Reality Check — $97Takes 60–90 minutes. No prep required.
"We realized two people were already halfway out the door. Once we saw the scores, the gaps were obvious — and fixable."

Five touchpoints.
Every departure starts in one of them.
Retention isn't a culture problem. It's a systems problem — and it breaks down in predictable places. The Retention Reality Check™ scores your firm across all five.

Everything you need to stop guessing
and start knowing.
This isn't a quiz that spits out a score. You work through it — section by section, touchpoint by touchpoint — and build a real picture of where your firm stands. Most founders identify their highest-risk person within the first 20 questions — before they finish the first section.
"By the time someone hands you a resignation letter, the decision was made 6 to 12 months ago. The exit interview won't tell you why."
The risk already exists.
This just shows you where.
The risk is already in your business.

If you've ever had a resignation
land as a surprise —
this is for you.
If you've ever thought "I should have seen that coming" — read this.
The Retention Reality Check™ is the entry point into a larger system.
Once you know your score, there's a natural next step — going deeper on the gaps it surfaces. The workbook tells you where. The Retention Intelligence Audit™ shows you exactly how to fix it.
You don't need a consultant.
You need to see what's already happening.
This takes an hour. The cost of not doing it shows up later.
Every quarter you wait, you're carrying risk you can see but can't name. This workbook gives it a name — and a number — in 90 minutes.
"I finished it in one sitting on a Sunday. By Monday I had a conversation I'd been avoiding for three months."
