Meaning of the ICR Scores

The beauty of the ICR is that you can (and actually should)) use it as a critical success factor for your organization. This single number tells you exactly where you stand. The explanation behind this number clarifies where the risks and growth potential lie within your organization. As you know, growth within the ICR framework means progress: both in terms of improvement and expansion.

The ICR score ranges from 5 to 1, where a score of 1 represents an organization approaching an optimal state of control and effectiveness, with minimal remaining growth potential. A score of 5 indicates a situation where significant improvement potential still exists and where performance contributes only limitedly to achieving ambition.

Within the ICR methodology, a lower score reflects a stronger foundation and a higher likelihood of sustainable success. An ICR of 1 represents the highest level of control and performance.
