What is an In Control Rating?
Master Your Purpose. Own Your Freedom. With ICR.
The ICR Growth Compass is designed to ensure that you know whether you are on track to achieve your entrepreneurial ambitions and successfully move from ambition to result. In other words, the ICR Growth Compass guides you towards success.
The ICR (InControlRating) serves as your measurable and predictive indicator, offering a quantifiable representation of the quality of your organization's dynamic business plan. It predicts the success of your management approach and the resulting performance, as well as the balance between your personal and professional life. In essence, it is your ultimate tool to see where you stand and what you need to do to improve.
The ICR approach uses the ICR (InControlRating) to indicate the level of control within an organization. This rating reflects how well an organization is "in control" during the process from ambition to result. It essentially shows the effectiveness of control measures within the organization, and therefore, the ability of your organization to maintain control over the most critical aspects of business operations.
As part of the ICR cycle, organizations identify potential risks, ensure compliance with regulations, improve operational efficiency, and are better equipped to pursue strategic goals. This enables management teams to make informed decisions, monitor performance, and make adjustments as needed. Consequently, ICR contributes to enhancing the resilience and sustainability of organizations, which is crucial in our rapidly changing world.
ICR as a critical success factor
The beauty of the ICR is that it acts as a critical success factor for your organization. From this single number, you know exactly where you stand. The underlying analysis of this number reveals where the risks and growth potential lie within your organization. Growth within ICR means progress, both in terms of improvement and expansion.
By using your company's ICR (InControlRating), you manage the process of turning ambition into results in a professional and structured way. The ICR is built around five growth circles, which comprise 18 responsibility areas. Ultimately, these 18 responsibility areas encompass 33 ICR objectives that you actively work on.
You aim for an ICR 1, as this indicates that your organization is approaching perfection, with little to no growth potential remaining internally. Thus, the organization contributes optimally to successfully moving from ambition to result.
Conversely, with the lowest score of ICR 5, the opposite is true. There is an enormous growth potential within the organization, and the performances contribute little or nothing to successfully moving from ambition to result.
Within the 33 ICR objectives and the underlying items, you demonstrate how your organization addresses these areas. The higher the score of an objective, the better it contributes to your company's ICR. Based on all this input, the ICR predicts how successful your management approach will be, the resulting performance, and the balance between work and private life.
