Unveiling the 7+ Index: The Ultimate Framework for Organisational Growth

In today’s rapidly changing business landscape, organisations often find themselves grappling with hidden inefficiencies, misaligned teams, and stagnant growth. Leaders struggle to pinpoint what’s working, what’s not, and how to fix it—leaving potential profits untapped and teams underperforming. Recognising this universal challenge, we’re thrilled to announce the launch of the 7+ Index: a revolutionary framework designed to transform the way businesses operate.

What Is the 7+ Index?

The 7+ Index is more than just a tool; it’s a comprehensive framework that provides leaders with a complete overview of their organisation. It identifies areas of strength and highlights where inefficiencies are holding you back, enabling you to align your team, processes, and strategy for maximum growth and profitability.

Over the last 30 years, Kara has worked with 200+ companies—from startups to global brands—refining a framework to identify and solve organisational challenges. Through this experience, we’ve created the 7+ Index, a proven tool designed to help businesses pinpoint blind spots, align teams, and unlock growth opportunities.

At its core, the 7+ Index is built around seven essential pillars that underpin every successful organisation:

1. North Star: Your vision and purpose—the ultimate guide for your business.
2. Culture: The values and behaviours that define your organisation.
3. Strategy: A clear and actionable roadmap to achieve your goals.
4. People: The talent, leadership, and engagement that drive performance.
5. Customer Connection: Strengthening relationships and delivering value.
6. Proposition: A compelling value proposition that differentiates your business.
7. Execution: Ensuring consistency and efficiency in delivery.

Together, these pillars create a holistic approach to addressing organisational challenges and unlocking your full potential.

Why Businesses Need the 7+ Index

Many organisations operate with blind spots, unable to see the root causes of their challenges. The 7+ Index bridges that gap by offering a clear, structured evaluation of your business. It helps leaders:

• Uncover Hidden Inefficiencies: Identify and resolve barriers to growth.
• Align Teams: Ensure every department and team works toward the same goals.
• Improve Decision-Making: Gain clarity on what’s working and what’s not.
• Maximise Profitability: Tap into unrealised potential and drive sustainable growth.

The 7+ Index is an assessment tool that evaluates critical aspects of organisational performance, including culture, strategy, leadership, and execution. It provides a personalised report with insights and strategies to help businesses address weaknesses and leverage strengths—leading to improved alignment and profitability. As we like to say, "Common sense is not always common practice."

Proven Results from Industry Leaders

The framework has already delivered incredible results for some of the world’s top companies. For instance, our work with Selfridges saw their profits grow from ￡45 million to an astounding ￡250 million. By leveraging the 7 steps to profit, we helped align their strategy, improve team engagement, and optimise their customer connection, paving the way for exponential growth.
