Are you the ceiling in your own company?
The most common structural problem inside a $2M to $12M landscape company isn't a people problem. It's a decision-routing problem. This assessment identifies whether you're the bottleneck — and where.
Most owners I meet describe the problem sideways. "I can't find good people." "Nobody steps up." "Nothing gets done unless I'm involved." Each of those is the same sentence with the accountability pointed somewhere else.
The version that unlocks change: "I'm the ceiling." Not because you're doing anything wrong. Because the company was built around your judgment and never outgrew it.
This assessment doesn't tell you whether you're a good operator. It tells you whether the structure you have today supports the company you're building toward — and exactly where the decision-routing gaps are costing you time and margin.
Four angles on the same bottleneck.
The assessment runs your decision patterns through four lenses. Each one surfaces a different dimension of where the bottleneck lives and what's causing it.
Decision Volume
How many decisions are routing to you per week and what percentage should never have reached you.
Authority Gaps
Where your team has the information and capability to decide, but not the documented authority to act.
Time Cost
The dollar value of owner time consumed by decisions that could be delegated with the right structure.
Structural Readiness
Whether your current decision infrastructure supports the next stage of growth you're heading toward.
If you're already feeling it.
If decisions are piling up, managers are waiting instead of acting, or a good ops manager just gave notice — this assessment will name in specific terms what you've been sensing. Most owners find the bottleneck score higher than they expected.
If you're building ahead of it.
If things are working but you're planning a new branch, a key hire, or a growth stage — this assessment tells you which decision-rights gaps to close before the scale makes them unavoidable and expensive.
Your results are confidential and belong to you. No sales follow-up unless you request it.
Three bottleneck profiles. One underlying cause.
Most owners fall into one of three patterns. Knowing which one you are tells you exactly what kind of infrastructure fix closes the gap.
The Decision Funnel
Decisions are routing to you because no one has documented authority to act on them. Your team is capable — they're asking because the structure requires it, not because they need to.
The Criteria Vacuum
Decisions are routing to you because no one has written down what a correct decision looks like. Your judgment has never been codified into criteria anyone else can use.
The Scale Mismatch
The structure worked at $3M. It doesn't work at $7M. The company grew past the informal systems it was built on, and nobody rebuilt them for the next stage.
