Look at the evidence
Compare demand, conversion and capacity evidence.
Find where work or choices actually wait for the founder.
Check whether removing that wait would address the observed constraint.
A case to think through
An agency has spare delivery capacity but too few suitable enquiries. Delegation changes may help internally without solving the immediate demand problem.
This is a hypothetical operating example, not a client result.Avoid a misleading conclusion
Using a dependency score as a complete growth diagnosis can lead to changes unrelated to the actual commercial constraint.
Direction concerns shared priorities and the ability to make trade-offs. Compare what people say with where time and resources actually go. A clear document is helpful, but the stronger evidence is a real choice made coherently when competing demands arrive without the founder supplying the answer.
Your evidence check
Bring supporting and contrary examples. A self-reported answer is a starting point; these notes do not calculate or validate a score.

Will the Assessment diagnose every growth problem?
No. It highlights self-reported dependency patterns across five operating dimensions, not a complete commercial or market diagnosis.
