How Atlas works in practice
What you provide
- The plan you want to test: strategy, goals or OKRs
- Roles and team structure for the people involved
- Who takes part, and when
What participants do
- Each person takes the Atlas assessment, about 20 to 25 minutes
- A one-to-one feedback session on their own results
- A short Clarity Survey, about 10 to 15 minutes, on how well the plan is understood
What you receive
- Personal Collaboration Playbook (In the platform)
- AI assistant answering questions from your own data (In the platform)
- Team Report and Execution Forecast (Reviewed by Atlas experts)
- Match Report for a hiring decision (Reviewed by Atlas experts)
- Recommendations and follow-up (With Atlas expert support)
The Clarity Survey repeats on an agreed cadence, typically quarterly, and Atlas updates the read when the plan, the team or the evidence changes. A person makes every decision.
Scenario simulation and organisation-wide forecasting are in development and are not part of Atlas today.
