Consulting · The Audit

A focused diagnostic for the leader who wants to know where to spend the next 90 days.

The P.A.T.H.S. Audit is a paid consulting engagement where I work directly with you on your business or organization, scoring it across the five letters and producing a written diagnostic with three interventions for the next ninety days.

What it is

Not coaching. Not ongoing advisory. A finite engagement with a clear deliverable.

The Audit is the consulting equivalent of a deep check-up for your business or organization. We score it across P.A.T.H.S., find the weakest letter, and design interventions for the next ninety days.

You know exactly what you are buying before you buy it: a defined start, a defined finish, and a defined output.

01

A 90-minute discovery session

Direct work with me. Your scoring is reviewed, pressure-tested, and the texture beneath the numbers comes out.

02

A 10-12 page written report

Diagnostic summary, dependency map, three specific 90-day interventions, and one longer-term watch item.

03

A 30-day follow-up

Included. We meet 30 days after delivery to review what stuck, what didn't, and adjust where needed.

04

Audit member access

Quarterly access to a private channel where past Audit clients can submit one question to me.

Who it's for

Built for serious operators. Not for everyone.

Below is who the Audit is designed for and who it is not designed for.

Built for

  • Founders running 10-100 person businesses who sense something is structurally off but cannot name it.
  • Senior pastors of mid-size ministries with complexity outgrowing team capability.
  • Family-business stewards navigating succession, governance, or scale.
  • Department heads and VPs inside larger companies with budget authority for external diagnostics.
  • CEOs of post-product-market-fit startups who have grown the team faster than the systems.

Not for

  • Solopreneurs and very early-stage founders (under 5 people). Start with the book and newsletter first.
  • Leaders looking for therapy, life coaching, or career counseling. The Audit is structural, not personal.
  • Anyone wanting ongoing consulting. The Audit is finite by design.
  • Organizations looking to validate decisions already made. The Audit calls things as it sees them.
The methodology

Four stages over four to six weeks.

Every Audit follows the same shape and depth, calibrated to your complexity.

STAGE 01

Pre-call self-audit

You and 2-3 key team members independently score your organization across 16 prompts in the P.A.T.H.S. instrument.

Week 1 · Async
STAGE 02

Discovery session

A 90-minute call to pressure-test scoring, surface what sits beneath it, and identify what is weak and why.

Week 2 · 90 minutes
STAGE 03

Written report

A 10-12 page diagnostic PDF with summary, scoring chart, dependency map, and three 90-day interventions.

Weeks 3-4 · PDF
STAGE 04

30-day follow-up

A 30-minute call after delivery to review what stuck, what didn't, and what to adjust next.

Week 6 or 8 · 30 minutes

Frequently asked

The questions I get most.

How is this different from regular consulting?

Regular consulting is open-ended. The Audit has a defined beginning, end, and deliverable you can keep and use long after the engagement.

What if my organization does not fit cleanly into a tier?

If you sit between tiers, we discuss on the qualifier call and scope accordingly.

Can my whole team be involved?

Yes. Up to 8 team members can participate depending on tier, and score gaps are usually the richest signals.

What happens after the report is delivered?

You implement on your schedule, then we review progress on the Day 30 follow-up included in the engagement.

Do you work outside Nigeria?

Yes. International clients are supported remotely, with in-person options for complex engagements where needed.

Apply
