Are you in an independent organisation? 

What does that mean?  Try this test:

1)    Do you own your own Brand – or can a boss (politician, Group CEO) take it away?

2)    Do you have a diversified Income Stream  – or are your ‘customers’ all in one sector or even mainly from one organisation?

3)    Do you have a choice about how you organise internally – or is that dictated by Governance?

Whilst many achieve 1 and 3, number 2 is the fundamental basis of organisational independence.
