About Business Ingenuity, Inc.

Business Ingenuity helps leaders see what's actually driving — or constraining — their organization's performance. Most performance problems aren't leadership problems. They're structural. Natural Synergy, our framework (and the book of the same name, co-authored by Charles Follett and Ray Scott), maps organizations along two axes — Resilience and Ingenuity — to reveal one of four Operating States: Synergistic, Insular, Pluralistic, or Tumultuous. From there, we look at Vision/Strategy/Culture alignment, the Accelerators and Arrestors shaping momentum, and the strong/weak tie structure carrying information through the organization. Natural Synergy doesn't replace the leadership and culture frameworks you already use — it tells you whether your organization is built to let that leadership actually work. We put the framework into practice through Edgy, our diagnostic product suite: ExoScan / ExoAnalysis — fast, externally-sourced diagnostics for portfolio screening and first-look assessments OrgScan / OrgAnalysis — deeper diagnostics built on proprietary internal survey data, for organizations ready to act The framework has been field-tested with Fortune 1000 clients by co-founder Olga Stephan, and is endorsed by Geoffrey Moore.
