Four interdependent domains that enable people and organisations to flourish and perform sustainably
The Organisational Vitality Index (OVI) is a developmental organisational diagnostic designed to assess the conditions that support or constrain sustainable human and organisational performance. It examines vitality as a multilevel phenomenon rather than as an individual wellbeing issue alone.
The diagnostic is organised around four interdependent domains. Together, these domains assess whether people have the personal capacity to engage and adapt, whether leaders create enabling conditions, whether teams function through healthy relational patterns, and whether the organisation has designed systems that sustain performance over time.
The structural and systemic conditions that shape sustainable performance, including strategic coherence, work design, fairness, resources and organisational renewal.
The capacity to engage fully, realise potential, adapt and sustain performance.
| Domain | Dimension | Score | Interpretation |

Scores are linearly transformed from the five-point response scale to 0–100. Reverse-keyed statements are recoded before aggregation. The overall OVI score is reported alongside domain balance because an arithmetic mean can conceal a critical weakness in one part of an interdependent system. The current scoring thresholds and profile labels are developmental defaults for this prototype and should be recalibrated using empirical norming, reliability analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, measurement invariance testing and criterion-validity evidence before high-stakes or comparative use.
