Why Monderman
Q²-SODI™Beta
Q²-SODI is advanced organizational diagnostic software that gives you a clearer picture of how responsibilities, decisions, everyday work and delivery operate across your organization. Bring participant perspectives into structured reports, choose where to focus improvement, and return to compare results on the same basis.
The premise
As organizations grow and change, work can collect more approvals, handoffs, reports, and unclear boundaries. The effects may appear as delay, rework, frustration, or higher cost. Those outcomes alone do not identify what should change.
Employee feedback can show where people report strain. Workflow data can show where recorded activity slows. Leaders may still need a structured way to examine ownership, authority, handoffs, routing, and recurring process work.
Q²-SODI examines that part of the organization. Each Diagnostic turns submitted answers about a defined scope into a score, result band, and Executive Report. The same structured answers receive the same score when the Diagnostic and scoring versions are unchanged.
The purpose is not to treat all administration as waste. Reviews, controls, and reporting can protect important work. Q²-SODI helps leaders identify where further investigation may be useful.
Organizations deliver at the speed of their administrative reality.
Monderman’s operating thesis.
How it differs
Different tools answer different questions. Q²-SODI provides a scored, versioned record based on structured answers about a defined organizational scope.
What each category provides
Show how people describe their experience at work, including strain, confidence, or engagement.
Show recorded activity within a process, including what moved, waited, or repeated.
Can support exploration or provide a tailored judgment. The method and output may vary between uses or engagements.
Produces a scored result from structured answers. When the Diagnostic and scoring versions are unchanged, the same structured answers produce the same score. A later run with matching scope and settings can show whether the answers and score changed.
Q²-SODI does not replace employee listening, operational data, or advisory work. It adds a structured diagnostic record that can be repeated on the same basis after action. A changed result does not, by itself, prove what caused the change.
Basis of the method
Twenty-five years of organizational practice since 2001.
Experience across the Department of Defense, the intelligence community, technology startups, and consulting firms.
MS in Organization Development, Pepperdine University.
Jason Adamson is the author of Governance, Bureaucracy and Organization.
The author’s book is separate from Monderman’s software and does not validate its scoring or financial scenarios.
The scoring engine is versioned and deterministic.
When enabled, AI helps explain a completed Diagnostic or Synthesis result; it does not calculate or change the score. Generated interpretation requires review. The current Diagnostic uses guided questions; interview mode is not available.
Assumptions and economic-model boundaries are disclosed.
Different perspectives
People doing, managing and overseeing the same work may describe different conditions. Those differences can identify questions worth investigating. Q²-SODI keeps participant perspectives distinct rather than hiding them in one average.
When it fits
Q²-SODI is designed for leaders who can define a specific scope, review the submitted evidence, and repeat the same Diagnostic after taking action.
Strong fit
You want to examine ownership, authority, handoffs, decision flow, or process load before choosing what to change.
Strong fit
You want to save the first result and compare it with a later run that uses matching scope and settings.
Not sufficient alone
A Diagnostic can organize reported information about a defined scope. It cannot substitute for leadership judgment, negotiation, or sustained implementation support.
Not the right category
Use a sentiment platform for reported experience and an operational system for workflow telemetry. Use Q²-SODI when the question concerns the administrative system beneath them.
