Takes 5–7 minutes · Free · Designed for founders & executive teams.
If you feel busy, stretched and still unfocused - this is for you.
Most leadership teams don’t struggle because they lack ambition or effort.
They struggle because they’re committed to too many priorities at the same time.
That usually sounds like:
“We can’t prioritize.”
“Everything feels important.”
“We lack focus.”
“Execution discipline is slipping.”
“We’re doing a lot, but progress feels harder than it should.”
When this happens, the issue isn’t motivation.
It’s that the organization’s operating system is under strain — and leaders don’t have a clear view of where it’s breaking down.
What the Business Reality Check is - and what is isn’t
What is is:
A fast, self-guided current-state diagnostic
Designed for scaling founders and executive teams
A clear snapshot of how your business is operating today
A way to surface where execution discipline is holding — and where it’s breaking down
What it’s not:
A roadmap
A strategy plan
A prioritization exercise
A set of recommendations
This is about seeing reality clearly - not fixing it yet.
In minutes, you’ll gain clarity on:
Where your organization is strong — and where it’s strained
How Vision, People, Process, Technology, and Performance are (or aren’t) aligned
Why focus feels elusive even when goals are clear
Where execution discipline is being supported — or undermined
Whether your challenges are isolated issues or systemic patterns
This assessment helps explain why things feel harder than they should — without oversimplifying or pointing fingers.

Who this is for
This is for you if:
You’re a founder, CEO, COO, or senior leader
Your organization is growing or navigating complexity
You feel committed on too many fronts at once
You want an honest view of what’s actually happening — before making your next move
This is not for you if:
You’re looking for tactics or templates
You want a quick fix
You’re not ready to look clearly at how the business is operating today
What happens after the Reality Check?
For many leaders, the Business Reality Check confirms something they already suspected:
The challenge isn’t effort.
It’s alignment.
If the snapshot shows meaningful strain, the next step isn’t to push harder — it’s to diagnose root causes and decide what actually matters now.
That’s exactly what Day1’s Business Review → Roadmap (BR→R) engagement is designed to do.
No pressure.
No pitch.
Just a clear next step, when you’re ready.
