About DIAL Lite Framework The Book
DIAL Lite · Dual Integrity Assessment Lab · Free

Where is the load
actually going?

Forty-two statements. About 6–8 minutes. A directional reading of your Formation Integrity, your Structural Integrity, and the gap between them.

What this is — and is not. DIAL Lite is a structured self-assessment using rational cut-points and weights. It is not a validated instrument, not a diagnostic tool in the clinical sense, and not a personality test. It gives a directional reading you can act on today; the full DIAL Leader Assessment™ is being built to empirical norms, with published reliability and validity required before any certified use.

Your DIAL Lite Reading

A signal, not a sentence.

Do not turn a low score into shame or a high score into proof that no repair is needed. Ask where Formation is holding, where Structure is holding, where the gap is widest — and who or what is compensating.

The Five Pillars — Formation

The Four Lanes — Structure

Where to look first — your three lowest Gates

Preliminary Profile Reading — DIAL Leader Profiles™

How you instinctively carry load, read from your Pillar pattern. This is a preliminary Top Trio; the full DIAL Leader Assessment™ develops it in depth, with the weighting the Lite tier cannot reproduce.

Reading this honestly. This is a structured self-assessment — a directional reading, not a validated or diagnostic result. Scores between 3.0 and 3.4 sit in a drifting band: the system is moving toward the nearest pattern, and Gate-level precision requires the full instrument.

Your reading shows where your load is going. A Team Story compiles individual readings — with consent recorded first and individual scores withheld below a minimum group size — into a shared picture: where weight is concentrating across the team, what the team is signaling, and which repair conversation should come next. It runs on DIAL Community, the free assessment we build for organizations through Global Mission Support.

Help Validate DIAL

DIAL Lite is a structured self-assessment, and we are building the published evidence behind it. You can contribute this reading to the validation study. Your item answers and scores are submitted with a consent record; your email is optional and is used only to link a future retest and to honor deletion requests. We never store your raw IP address (only a salted hash, for abuse prevention), and study reports only ever use de-identified, aggregate data.

Re-Measure, Don’t Guess

A single reading is a snapshot. Retake DIAL Lite in about 30 days — after working one repair move — and compare the two readings instead of relying on impressions.

Lite is the first rung, on purpose.

Releasing a transparent free tier first — and validating the full instrument before certifying anything — is itself part of the method.
