Work With Ken

Find the right way to diagnose the ceiling.

Most organizations don’t arrive at Circularity Edge because they need another sustainability framework.

They arrive because something feels unresolved.
The reports exist.
The targets exist.
The initiatives exist.
The effort is real.

Yet progress still feels insufficient.
The question is why.

The answer varies for each organization, which is why the work begins with understanding the situation before recommending a solution.

The Circularity Edge Pathway

Circularity Edge offers several ways to examine why credible sustainability or circularity work is not yet changing the decisions that matter.

Some leaders need a first look.
Some need a review of AI-supported sustainability work.
Some need a full diagnostic.
Some need to bring the leadership team into the room.
Some are facing a broader institutional ceiling.

Start with the path that fits the question in front of you.

Not Sure Where To Begin?

Book a Ceiling Conversation

A short fit conversation with Ken to discuss where your sustainability work is hitting a ceiling and which diagnostic path is most appropriate.

Best if:

  • you are not sure which offer fits
  • you have questions before purchasing
  • the issue is still forming
  • you want to test whether there is a real ceiling worth examining

Ceiling Snapshot

A first look at what may be limiting the work.

A focused entry diagnostic for leaders who suspect hidden assumptions, responsibility boundaries, or market dependencies may be limiting their sustainability work.

Includes:

  • one 45–60 minute confidential conversation
  • transcript review
  • concise written Snapshot
  • 3–5 ceiling signals
  • recommendation on whether a full Diagnostic is warranted

Best if:

  • you want to try the method before committing to a full Diagnostic
  • you have one live issue, project, or decision point
  • you want a first read on where the ceiling may be showing up

Price: $750

The Ceiling Snapshot

AI Sustainability Assumption Audit

Before AI accelerates the work, audit the assumptions.

A focused review of AI-supported sustainability outputs to identify inherited assumptions, missing questions, and risk areas before the material is used in strategy, reporting, claims, or leadership decisions.

Includes:

  • review of up to 10 pages of AI-supported material
  • written audit memo
  • 45-minute review call
  • recommendations for better prompts, review criteria, and decision safeguards

Best if:

  • your team is using AI for sustainability strategy, reporting, claims, or board materials
  • you want to know whether AI is reproducing consensus thinking
  • you are preparing public or leadership-facing materials generated with AI assistance

Price: $1,500

The AI Audit

Sustainability Ceiling Diagnostic

A full map of the ceiling beneath credible sustainability work.

A deeper diagnostic for leaders whose sustainability or circularity work is credible but not yet changing the decisions, obligations, budgets, or business model required for real transition.

Includes:

  • two confidential conversations
  • transcript and recording review
  • AI-assisted analysis
  • confidential Belief Gap Map
  • closing working session

Best if:

  • the issue is important enough for deeper examination
  • the ceiling appears to involve assumptions, responsibility boundaries, or business-model limits
  • you need a serious diagnostic before more strategy, investment, AI work, or public positioning is built on top

Explore the Diagnostics

Leadership Team Diagnostic

Diagnose the decision logic around the leadership table.

A defined diagnostic for four to six executives who sound aligned on sustainability but still make decisions from different assumptions.

Best if:

  • the team agrees in language but diverges in decisions
  • functions assess risk differently
  • sustainability commitments are not changing capital allocation
  • the team needs to understand why execution keeps slowing down

Explore the Team Diagnostic

Institutional Diagnostic Pathway

Diagnose the operating system beneath the institution’s sustainability work.

A broader pathway for companies, coalitions, boards, funders, or institutions where the ceiling is embedded in governance, capital allocation, procurement, policy, market dependencies, or business-model structure.

Best if:

  • the issue is larger than one person or team
  • strategy exists but decisions do not change
  • implementation depends on institutional commitments that are not yet governing
  • the work may require multi-quarter diagnostic engagement
