The 4 Quadrants of Organizational Structure
If you’ve read Gary Harper’s book RISE, you got a great look at the RISE Business Framework. Now it’s time to implement it into your business. Here’s how RISE works.

Resources
Time • Money • People
An idea becomes a business when time, money, and resources are dedicated to bringing it to life. The research quadrant is complete when a business is self-sustaining, can pay its own expenses and makes a profit each month.
“The P&L statement is the financial MRI of your business. It scans for strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities, helping you diagnose and treat financial health.”Gary Harper

Inspiration
Values • Purpose • Goals
If we make it through the research quadrant, we then measure profits, implement a business framework, and clearly define our purpose as a business beyond just making money.
“Core values are the soul of your organization. They dictate your company culture, hiring choices, and leadership style.”Gary Harper

Systems
Process • Procedures • Policies
Our innovative business is now ready to turn into a streamlined machine. We focus on documenting processes, creating procedures and instituting policies. We focus on the right systems and the right process.
“KPIs act as a company's pulse, signaling the health and areas of concern.”Gary Harper

Engagement
Brand • Succession • Automation
Some businesses should stay in the streamline quadrant, others can expand. To expand we must be willing to leverage the profits we made in the previous quadrants and invest it in brand, talent succession planning, and automations.
“A strong brand isn't just recognized; it's trusted.”Gary Harper
What does working with a RISE Certified Coach look like?

Simple.
Working with a RISE Certified Coach is simple. Find and hire the right Coach for your business.

Fast.
Unlike other business frameworks you’ve tried, RISE Coaches won’t waste your time or their own. They are obsessed with getting fast results for clients.

Effective.
After you work with a RISE Coach, your business will generate revenue and help you accomplish your purpose.
Finance, built in
Most operating systems stop at the scorecard. RISE runs the numbers.
Money is one of the three Resources, so finance is part of the framework from day one, not something you hand off and hope for.
“A pro forma is your financial crystal ball, offering a glimpse into tomorrow’s success. The budget, its trusty companion, turns those visions into reality.”Gary Harper, RISE Business Framework
Pro forma and budget
Plan revenue and expenses for the year, then track actuals against them month by month.
P&L review
Read your profit and loss like a diagnosis: strengths, weaknesses, and what to treat first.
Variance reports
Catch the gap between budget and reality early, while it is still easy to fix.
Quarterly reflections
Financial KPIs reviewed every quarter so the business stays on course.
RISE vs. other operating systems
Most operating systems give you meetings and scorecards. RISE covers the whole business, from finance and people to purpose, brand, and sales.
