Open Intelligence Self-Assessments

These self-guided assessments are designed to create space for honest thinking about funding, leadership, and organizational systems.

They are intentionally not scored, not tracked, and not stored.
They are not applications, evaluations, or diagnostics.

Each assessment offers a different lens. You choose where to begin.

What These Reflections Are

Private and self-guided
Grounded in real organizational constraints
Designed to surface patterns, tensions, and better questions
Useful whether you’re leading alone or reflecting with a team

What They Are Not

Performance evaluations
Funding applications
Sales funnels
A substitute for judgment or experience

These reflections are meant to support thinking, not rush decisions.

Self-Assessment Reflections

Structured reflection worksheets designed to help nonprofit and civic leaders examine readiness across leadership, systems, strategy, and funding.

These are not diagnostics or scorecards. They are designed to surface patterns, tensions, and decisions that are easy to miss from inside the work.
