Use cases

One diagnostic, many applications

Because it reads your whole organisation as a connected system, States of Vitality earns its place in a range of situations. Often where something is about to shift, and seeing the ground clearly matters before the first move.

The cascadeStrategy entering full and clear at the top and flowing down through the organisation's tiers - the eight dimensions narrowing and fading as they descend, clear at the top and fainter at the front line.STRATEGY, AS SETBOARDLEADERSHIPMANAGEMENTTEAMSFRONT LINE
Strategic alignment

Is strategy embedded, or just on paper?

The two bellsA single tidy, narrow peak in one colour - the stated culture - sitting inside a much wider, lumpy, many-coloured spread of how people actually experience the place. The gap between the slim certainty and the broad, divided reality is the point.STATEDAS LIVED
Culture change

Understand your culture before you change it.

The organisation as terrainThe eight dimensions of organisational health drawn as a layered landscape, with a planned route climbing across it from a marked starting point - some ground solid and high, some thin and low.START
Transformation planning

Know what you're working with before you begin.

Two organisations, side by sideTwo organisational profiles read with the same instrument and mirrored across a centre seam - one row per dimension. Where the two are aligned the tongues meet on the seam; where they diverge a coloured void opens between them, widest at Culture, Connection and Change.ORG AORG BBEFORE THEY BECOME ONE
Merger or acquisition

Scaling and growth

Know what holds as you grow.

The surface and the depthA waterline near the top marks the view a new leader is given. Beneath it the eight dimensions of organisational health are layered as strata - the full organisation they have inherited, most of it below the surface, with a few peaks breaking through.THE VIEW FROM THE TOPWHAT'S ACTUALLY THERE

The single drop, the deep poolOne engagement number sits as a single mark on the surface; beneath it the depth opens into the eight dimension-coloured currents that actually shape the experience, some running strong and some pinched thin.THE NUMBERWHAT SHAPES IT
Employee experience

Go deeper than engagement scores.

Surfacing through the membraneA high horizontal line is the surface the customer meets. Below it the eight internal dimensions rise as columns - the strong ones break a clean crest above the line, the strained ones stall and fade just beneath it.WHAT SURFACESBENEATH
Customer experience

How internal dynamics reach customers.

The settlingEight currents converge and lift together at the moment the change went live, then fan apart and settle at their own levels between two rails - as the change aimed above, old default below. Some hold near the aim, some sag back to the default.AS THE CHANGE AIMEDOLD DEFAULTCHANGE WENT LIVE
