The Need EstablishedWhy We Need a Framework

  1. Employee Disengagement Costs: U.S. businesses lose $1.9 trillion annually due to disengaged employees.

  2. Burnout and Turnover: High-turnover industries face annual losses of $30,000–$40,000 per employee.

  3. Operational Inefficiencies: Misaligned teams cost mid-sized companies up to 10% of revenue.

  4. Leadership Gaps: Over 70% of managers lack training to lead hybrid or complex teams effectively.

  5. Adapting to Disruption: Companies unprepared for complexity risk losing $800,000 annually.

The Square Root Solution

According to Price’s Law, the square root of your total number of staff are producing 50% of the value. That means that just 10 people in a 100-person staff drive 50% of its value. But if those 10 people are misaligned or fragmented, their dysfunction cascades downstream​. When an executive team becomes truly cohesive, the entire organization accelerates. We offer the only integrated framework that provides a clear roadmap to turn a group of executives into a high-performing, true leadership system.

This isn’t HR fluff—it’s operational infrastructure for executive-level execution, accountability, and resilience.

A universal framework for organizing and managing teams effectivelySix Frames of a Team

The Foundation of The Square Root Solution

Work

The productivity of a team is fundamentally linked to how work is organized and executed. This includes defining tasks, setting priorities, and managing goals and decision-making processes.

Results

While managing work processes is crucial, achieving tangible results is the ultimate indicator of a team’s effectiveness. This involves setting and tracking Key Performance Metrics to measure progress and ensure alignment.

Mission

A well-defined mission serves as the guiding force for a team, aligning efforts and providing direction. The mission acts as a compass for guiding the team’s direction, decision-making, and planning. 

Meetings

Effective meetings are critical for maintaining team cohesion and productivity. They facilitate information sharing, problem-solving, and team culture development.

Standards

By integrating performance, behavior, process, and well-being standards, teams can build a foundation of excellence, foster a positive culture, and ensure efficient and effective operations. 

Relationships

Building strong interpersonal relationships, based on trust, respectful communication, psychological safety, and a collaborative spirit, enhance team cohesion and drive success.

This holistic framework ensures teams remain aligned, adaptive, and high-performing, even amidst financial stress and uncertainty, complexity and disruption.
