We measure trust.
Then we help leaders operationalize it.
Measurement is where we begin. The work is what follows — assessment, coaching, training, and modeling that move trust from a number on a page into the way an organization actually runs.
The method comes from doctoral research at Case Western Reserve University on how trust is repaired inside environments where distrust has already won. For 24 years we have brought that research to Fortune 500 companies, health systems, government agencies, and national nonprofits.
Leaders leave our engagements with a number, a sequence, and a set of behaviors their people can feel.
Your board is going to ask whether you are ready for AI. Have an answer.
ARTI™
ARTI™ — The AI Readiness Trust Index scores organizational readiness across six domains:
- Workforce Trust
- Psychological Safety
- Cultural Readiness
- Governance Infrastructure
- Community Voice
- Trust Brokering Capacity
Technology adoption inherits the culture that receives it. An organization that deploys AI into a workforce that has stopped believing leadership scales the problem it already has. ARTI™ measures the ground before you build on it.
Developed with a technology partner and supported by dedicated AI governance counsel.
The Models Beneath It
Four frameworks, field-tested across 24 years, form the method ARTI™ runs on.
Trust Pathways™
Locates where trust breaks inside an organization and sequences the repair. Applied to executive teams, boards, and full workforces.
Culture Tax™
Quantifies what an organization pays when culture and stated strategy diverge. Turns a soft conversation into a line item.
Consistency and Constancy™
The behavioral discipline that holds trust in place once it is earned.
Pivot & Protect™
Compliance advisory for organizations navigating DBE and ACDBE requirements under shifting federal contract terms. Presented at the NFBPA Forum in Philadelphia.
How Trust Becomes Operational
A score changes nothing on its own.
These four disciplines carry it into daily practice.
Assess
ARTI™, Trust Pathways™, Culture Tax™, Hogan individual and group assessment, stakeholder and workforce research. We establish where trust sits before anyone acts on it.
Coach
CEO and executive coaching, Hogan debriefs, succession preparation. The individual work that changes what a leader does on Monday.
Model
Enterprise strategy, culture dashboards, governance architecture, and the design of systems that hold trust in place after we leave.
Train
Leadership development, manager capability building, board education, and master classes that put the behaviors in the hands of the people who repeat them.
