Ramp-Time Diagnostic
Training completion is not job competency.
Use this diagnostic when new hires reach the same role at different speeds depending on the branch, manager, or acquired team.
The operating question
Can leadership see who is ready by role and location, or are managers still the only source of truth?
Diagnostic Questions
Find where ramp depends on local judgment.
01Which roles create the most operating drag when ramp is slow?
02How long does each role take to reach acceptable performance?
03Who decides when a new hire is ready?
04Is readiness based on time, manager judgment, or observable certification?
05Do all locations use the same first-week path?
06Do all managers inspect the same behaviors?
07What does a weak hire look like at day 14, day 30, and day 60?
08How quickly can leadership see which locations are falling behind?
