Your Organization Is

Braced

What This Means:

Your responses suggest your organization operates from chronic stress—reactive decision-making, constant alertness, a culture where people feel they're always managing crises.

The fact that you scored in this range (rather than scoring yourself higher) suggests some self-awareness. That's important—and it's the prerequisite for change.

This is the danger zone for 2026.

When external pressure hits, braced organizations instinctively tighten controls. More documentation. More oversight. Less staff autonomy. This feels responsible—but it's exactly the wrong response.
