Readiness Index
Ignite Change
Readiness Index
A practical view of how ready your
organisation is for change.
The Ignite Change Readiness Index assesses six organisational
conditions that shape how well people and teams can learn,
adapt and deliver through change.
It helps identify where the environment is supporting progress,
where friction may be getting in the way, and where deeper
conversations are needed to understand what is really happening.
Research and practice informed
The Index draws on established research into organisational
learning and learning agility, combined with practical
experience of how change plays out inside organisations.

About Ronan
I founded Ignite after more than 20 years working across technology, financial services, organisational learning, leadership and change.
I’ve worked with senior leaders and teams on leadership alignment, decision making, capability development, knowledge sharing and helping new ways of working take hold.
That experience shaped the thinking behind Ignite. I’ve seen that organisations often already have talented people, good ideas and sensible strategies. The challenge is creating the environment where people can learn, adapt and deliver as the organisation changes.
Experience grounded in
- 20+ years in complex organisations
- Large-scale technology & organisational change
- Working across Technology, HR, Risk, Operations and senior leadership
