On Track with the ICR Growth Compass
From Organizational Foundation to ICR
ICR connects the essential layers of the organization into one integrated foundation and translates the team's assessment of that foundation into one organizational score.
Why Every Organization Should Use ICR as a Critical Success Factor
Meaning of the ICR Scores
The InControlRating (ICR) is a structured indicator of organizational quality and the likelihood of sustainable success. It is designed to be used as a critical success factor for your organization: a single rating that provides a clear indication of where your organization stands and where risks and improvement potential remain.
The ICR is team-assessed across the ICR framework, bringing different perspectives together into one organizational score. The underlying assessment makes visible where organizational strengths, vulnerabilities, risks and improvement potential lie.
The ICR ranges from 1 to 5. ICR 1 represents exceptional organizational quality and the highest likelihood of sustainable success. ICR 5 represents critical organizational quality, with the greatest internal improvement potential and the lowest likelihood of sustainable success.
Within the ICR methodology, a lower score reflects stronger organizational quality and a higher likelihood of sustainable success.

Why ICR exists.
Predictability is designed.
Why ICR exists.
Predictability is designed.
Sustainable performance should not depend primarily on individual leaders, fragmented initiatives or organizational memory. ICR provides the organizational architecture to connect ambition, business model, strategy and execution as one integrated system.
This creates the context in which:- - ambition is translated into action
- - alignment becomes embedded in the organization
- - ownership becomes visible
- - continuous improvement becomes part of how the organization operates
- - calm increasingly replaces unnecessary organizational pressure
