What problems do your products solve for your customers? Do they want more than you’re delivering?
Does everyone understand what matters NOW? Do you have the will to say “no” or “not yet”?
How does work get done? Is it both efficient and effective? Is it continuously improved?
Have you created an environment that draws on every team member’s skills and creative potential?
