Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from PE Operating Partners, CEOs, and CHROs evaluating Steradian Insights.

Getting started

How long does the independent diagnostic take?

Each leader completes a brief independent assessment (91 questions · 128 ratings — most rated for today and for the next 12–15 months.). That diagnostic is the first step of a complete cycle that also includes a facilitated decision session and follow-through record. The diagnostic covers seven execution-capability domains plus industry landscape, and captures both Current snapshot and 12–15 months ahead.

Who is Steradian for?

Steradian is built for CEOs, boards, and executive teams who want a structured way to identify where leaders disagree, run a facilitated decision session, and keep a follow-through record before planning cycles, major initiatives, or strategic decisions.

How do we get started?

Get started — contact us for one complete cycle with first-cycle implementation and facilitation support included — or view the illustrative executive report.

How much does Steradian cost?

Plans start at $15,000/year. See our Pricing page for Team, Enterprise, and Enterprise+ tiers, get started — contact us, or view the illustrative executive report.

Cycle & outputs

What do I receive after completing the cycle?

You receive an executive-ready summary including your Steradian Score™, the leading discussion priority, category-level signals, confidence deltas (today vs. future), and discussion prompts — then a facilitated session records the outcome, owners, and follow-through checks.

What makes Steradian different from a typical survey?

Most surveys only measure the current state. Steradian runs a complete cycle: an independent diagnostic that captures current state and future confidence, a facilitated decision session, and a follow-through record — so teams see where expectations diverge and what happens afterward.

Can we run it more than once?

Yes. Many teams re-run the complete cycle periodically (for example, quarterly) to track alignment, confidence, and follow-through over time.

Security & privacy

Is my team's data confidential?

Survey answers are reported only in aggregate — individual answers are not shown attributably to colleagues, the CEO, or the board in standard report flows. Access is company- and role-scoped and logged. Written reasons appear unattributed — though in a small team, wording may be recognizable, so participants are prompted to write accordingly. Where team size makes aggregation insufficient, Steradian withholds detail rather than display it.

Steradian operations personnel retain role-restricted, logged access to systems for support and service operation; this access is not used to produce attributed reporting. For full details, review our Security page and Privacy Policy.

Is this validated?

Steradian is research-informed: the methodology is grounded in peer-reviewed team-decision research, and we document which design choices are evidence-based versus our own engineering judgment. We don't claim outcomes we haven't measured.
