First off, is the strategy well articulated and understood by everyone in the organization?

Are the objectives and indicators aligned with the strategy and do they bring value to everyone?

Do managers know how to improve team performance and foster innovation?

Are the processes, methods, and tools at the right level of standardization and effectiveness?

Are employees recognized and their skills properly developed?
