Interpretation
Several outcomes are still aspirations rather than owned commitments.
Recommended action
Assign owners and review cadence for the 4 uncovered outcomes.
Why it matters
This metric helps leaders see whether the ownership layer is healthy enough to support execution and AI readiness.
What it reveals
Whether strategy and transformation work can be traced to accountable owners.
Manual assessment method
List priority outcomes and confirm whether each has a named owner with authority, accountability, and review cadence.
Lapemo calculation path
Supported by outcome records and ownership records; this replaces the less precise phrase initiative owner coverage.
Interpretation Bands
Healthy
85-100%
Strong enough for normal operating review.
Watch
70-84%
Usable, but gaps should be assigned owners.
Risk
50-69%
Weak enough to slow execution or create risk.
Critical
<50%
Do not scale the related workflow without intervention.
