You're Almost Ready 💪 (24-32/40)
Whether you're exploring partnerships or currently collaborating, your score shows you have potential with specific gaps to address. The good news? You now know exactly what to work on.
What This Means
You have some strong foundations, but certain areas need attention before pursuing formal partnerships. Rather than jumping into partnership and struggling, investing 3-6 months strengthening your foundations will set you up for success.
Your Priority Areas
Review your scores on each dimension; focus on your lowest-scoring areas first.
Capacity & Stability (Questions 1-2): Do you have stable operations and staff capacity?
Strategic Clarity (Questions 3-4): Are you clear on what you need from partners and what you offer?
Relationship Foundations (Questions 5-6): Can you communicate transparently and share power?
Equity & Power Awareness (Questions 7-8): Have you examined your power and committed to addressing imbalances?
Learning & Adaptation (Questions 9-10): Do you have feedback systems and comfort with ambiguity?
What Now?
Identify your 1-2 weakest dimensions (where you scored 0-5 out of 8)
Create a 90-day action plan with specific steps to strengthen those areas
Build internal alignment with your board/leadership about partnership readiness

Need Help Building Your Partnership Readiness?
I help organizations strengthen foundations before diving into partnerships. Often, 3-6 months of focused internal work transforms organizations from "struggling to partner" to "partnership-ready."
