Run of show
A timed spine for the session, with speaker cues and one discussion prompt per movement. Overrun is normal; the clock just tells you where you are.
Now: Orientation
of 85:00 planned
Starts
00:00
Length
8 min
1. Orientation
Speaker cueFrame the stakes: capital decisions are consequential and intuition is not enough. State plainly that scores are directional inputs for human judgment.
Discussion promptWhere have you seen a good business fail to raise, or a polished one raise too easily?
Starts
08:00
Length
17 min
2. Concept lessons 1-3
Speaker cueLet learners run the sorting activity first. Do not lecture the 11 and 5 dimensions; ask them to pick the dimension they most often skip.
Discussion promptWhy does this framework weight Business Quality (IQS) at 70%?
Starts
25:00
Length
10 min
3. Stages and the 7:3 logic
Speaker cueDrag the CRS sliders live on the projector. Show that moving FRS a full point moves CRS far less than moving IQS.
Discussion promptHow does stage-based weightage prevent false confidence in mature startups?
Starts
35:00
Length
10 min
4. Read the matrix
Speaker cueMove IQS and FRS live. Let the room predict the cell and suggest the next action. Optional numerical scenarios are references, not case studies.
Discussion promptCan the same CRS conceal two different readiness patterns?
Starts
45:00
Length
22 min
5. Live scoring workshop
Speaker cueLearners enter values from their own startup evidence in real time. Compare scores and ask for the evidence behind each disagreement.
Discussion promptWhich score would you defend with a document, and which is a feeling?
Starts
67:00
Length
8 min
6. Knowledge check
Speaker cueRun individually, then review the two most-missed questions aloud.
Discussion promptWhat would a single red flag change about how you conduct the next meeting?
Starts
75:00
Length
10 min
7. Debrief and cautions
Speaker cueClose on cautions: avoid mechanical use, always interpret the pattern, and keep human judgment in charge.
Discussion promptCan founders use this on themselves? What protects against generous scoring?
Between cohorts, clear what the previous group left behind.
