What OHI Measures

  • 01Turnover rate of high performers vs average performers
  • 02Frequency of informal 'backchannel' approvals

  • 04Variance in process execution across shifts/teams
  • 05Time required to onboard a new employee to full autonomy
  • 06Volume of undocumented 'tribal knowledge'
  • 07Severity of behavioral shift when a manager is absent
  • 08Consistency of formal feedback vs informal correction
