Underlying our ability to provide needs-driven solutions is our comprehensive diagnostic capability. Bridge Avenue Partners has developed a proprietary set of diagnostics, known as BridgePointSM. BridgePointSM is thorough, yet can be conducted in less than one week. BridgePointSM covers topics from governance to culture; from leadership to organization design; from management team dynamics to executive psychometrics. The BridgePointSM diagnostic tools correspond to our Alignment Framework:
BridgePointSM provides your leadership team with data that is not readily available through any other single source. We provide insight on issues such as:
Leadership Effectiveness: what leaders are doing well and what they should do more of (and less of) to get the most out of their people.
Board Culture: the degree of candor among Directors and other key indicators of Board "health."
Organization Culture Disconnects: aspects of culture that impede work force motivation and performance.
Strategic Alignment: the extent to which managers and staff support the companys strategy and understand their role in executing it.
To ensure the integrity of the data that is collected through BridgePointSM, we make three requests of client leaders:
To make themselves available for interviews and assessments.
To publicly and privately express their support for the initiative and encourage the rest of the organization to be responsive to requests to complete surveys, participate in interviews and attend focus groups.
To meet with Bridge Avenue Partners in a timely way to discuss the results of the Diagnostic in a candid, constructive dialogue.

Specific questions
Timing
Administration procedures
Reporting/feedback process (as long the as the third condition listed above is met)
BridgePointSM is an audit which gives leaders a snapshot of today and a clear guide for planning what they need to do in the future to keep:
