Three things before you start. First — like a company's quarterly financials, this score is a snapshot in time. It's your score today, and only today. Second — tomorrow it can change, fast. Telling your Teammates your Why tomorrow takes that score from 0 on up. Third — your trend over time matters more than any single score. Increase your averages every quarter. That's the game.
Take your Scorecard quarterly — alone or with a Teammate, ally, mentor, or coach. Be honest: an inflated score only cheats you. Don't understand a concept yet? Keep reading the book, learn it, retake it.
So your results reach you — and so a coach running a full team can see the whole roster.
Use an email you actually check — a copy of your Assessment results will be sent there.
Two scoreboards, kept separate on purpose. Your PROCESS SCORE — the six Inch Blocks. What you control. THE score. And your RESULTS SNAPSHOT — wins, accolades, depth chart. It lags your process, sometimes by seasons. Young or early? It'll be low by definition — that's not a problem. Watch it chase your Process Score up.
Each block ends with The Four: your Weapon, your Limiting Factor, your Move, and the Price. Type them out. If you can't write it, you don't know it yet — and now you know what to work on.
Nobody builds a champion alone. Score every cell — each Block's three cells count in that Block's average.
Mentor: 10 = have one, connect weekly · 8 = monthly · 5 = quarterly · 0 = none. Ally: 10 = review results weekly, enforce a carrot/stick, adjust · 7 = monthly, sometimes enforce · 4 = quarterly · 0 = none. Kaizen: 10 = improvement process, adhere without fail · 8 = mostly · 5 = occasionally · 0 = none.
What the scoreboard says — last season / last three months. NOT part of your Process Score. Complete it anyway, every quarter.
Pretender is a mode, not a person. Anyone in pretender mode can exit it today — by taking one step forward. That's the whole exit.
