Three things to do right now
This is how you turn the report into a clear picture of where your company stands — in about 30 minutes.
Read the Key Findings first
Page 3. Six findings in under two minutes — from POC contamination to the platform consolidation premium. Each one names a root cause, not just a symptom. Start here before the data slides.
Score yourself on page 12
Six dimensions. Score each one from 1 to 5. Takes about ten minutes. Built for cybersecurity motions — not generic SaaS. Most cyber companies between £5M and £50M ARR score between 12 and 18 out of 30. Be honest.
Find the dimension that's dragging
Your lowest score is rarely the root cause. It's usually a symptom of a break further upstream. Page 10 shows the dependency chain using a real $14M ARR cloud security company — win rate dropped from 22% to 11%. The fix was not more SEs.
Scored below 20 out of 30?
Email your six scores to Michael with the subject line 'L2O Self-Assessment — Cybersecurity'. Within 48 hours you'll get a free Dimension Dependency Brief. It tells you which dimension is dragging the rest down — and whether it's something you can fix yourself or something that needs a deeper look.
Score each of 6 dimensions 1–5 on page 12
