Proposed pricing only. Final scope and fees depend on assessment depth and whether individual, team or enterprise reporting is required.

From score to action

What a paid assessment engagement can actually look like.

The standard assessment is a product; deeper evidence collection and custom enterprise analysis are additional services.

1. Select the assessment

Choose a standard CEO, team, board, AI, growth or scale-readiness assessment, or commission a custom assessment scope.

2. Scope evidence depth

Decide whether the engagement uses a questionnaire only, questionnaire + interviews, document review, data review, or a broader enterprise evidence pack.

3. Collect inputs

Participants complete the instrument. Optional evidence may include interviews, operating metrics, meeting packs, strategy documents, governance materials or customer/commercial data where relevant.

4. Analyse and prioritise

CEOBAL identifies patterns, contradictions, bottlenecks and priority actions. Any benchmark comparison is only used where a sufficiently credible comparison base exists.

5. Executive debrief

Findings are translated into decisions: what to stop, start, redesign, measure, delegate, learn or escalate.

6. Convert into a pathway

The output can feed a programme, private intensive, team lab, Corporate Academy pathway or advisory engagement.

7. Re-assess

Repeat after 3, 6 or 12 months to measure whether the intervention changed the targeted dimensions.

Example individual output

CEO scorecard + six-dimension commentary + top five constraints + 90-day action agenda + 60-minute debrief.

Possible add-ons
  • Additional stakeholder interview
  • Board/chair input
  • Monthly progress review
  • Private CEO intensive

Example team output

Team heatmap + areas of agreement/disagreement + role/decision issues + facilitated team discussion + adoption plan.

Possible add-ons
  • Individual executive interviews
  • Decision-rights workshop
  • Executive Team Operating System programme
  • Quarterly reassessment

Example enterprise output

Multi-cohort view + capability patterns + priority populations + learning recommendations + executive sponsor review.

Possible add-ons
  • Custom question set
  • Role/region segmentation
  • Private dashboard
  • Annual assessment licence
  • Corporate Academy integration
Recurring model

Measure again, not just once.

Assessments become much more valuable commercially when they establish a baseline and then support quarterly or annual re-measurement.

Baseline

Initial diagnostic establishes current state, priorities and recommended learning or advisory pathway.

Open full detail, examples & commercial setup

What this can include

  • Structured diagnostic questions
  • Evidence or interview inputs where appropriate
  • Executive-level interpretation
  • Action-oriented output and optional follow-up

Example applications

  • Individual CEO use
  • Executive-team use
  • Enterprise baseline and re-assessment

Commercial / delivery note

Standard products can use published pricing; custom enterprise versions require separate scoping, design and implementation fees.

Intervention

Programmes, coaching, enterprise learning or operating-system changes target the measured gaps.

Open full detail, examples & commercial setup

What this can include

  • Structured diagnostic questions
  • Evidence or interview inputs where appropriate
  • Executive-level interpretation
  • Action-oriented output and optional follow-up

Example applications

  • Individual CEO use
  • Executive-team use
  • Enterprise baseline and re-assessment

Commercial / delivery note

Standard products can use published pricing; custom enterprise versions require separate scoping, design and implementation fees.

Re-assessment

Quarterly, six-month or annual re-measurement creates proof of progress and a retention reason.

Open full detail, examples & commercial setup

What this can include

  • Structured diagnostic questions
  • Evidence or interview inputs where appropriate
  • Executive-level interpretation
  • Action-oriented output and optional follow-up

Example applications

  • Individual CEO use
  • Executive-team use
  • Enterprise baseline and re-assessment

Commercial / delivery note

Standard products can use published pricing; custom enterprise versions require separate scoping, design and implementation fees.

Bespoke design & setup revenue

Custom Academy work has a separate scoping and build fee.

CEOBAL should not give away curriculum design, solution architecture or platform setup inside the delivery price. When a client wants something bespoke, the discovery, design and build work becomes a paid product in its own right.

€1,500–€5,000+ proposed

Discovery & Scoping

Stakeholder interviews, problem definition, audience analysis, outcomes, constraints, delivery model and commercial blueprint.

What the client receives
  • Scoping workshop or interviews
  • Audience and capability definition
  • Recommended learning architecture
  • Indicative programme map and implementation assumptions
  • Written scope for approval before build

This fee can stand alone and protects CEOBAL from doing substantial pre-sales design work for free.

€2,500–€7,500+ proposed

Programme Blueprint

Detailed syllabus, module map, outcomes, assessments, activities, resources, faculty requirements and production specification.

Typical blueprint components
  • Module-by-module curriculum
  • Learning outcomes and assessment logic
  • Case/exercise specification
  • Digital vs live delivery design
  • Production and faculty plan

Useful when a client wants the design first and decides separately whether CEOBAL should produce/deliver it.

€7,500–€30,000+ / course proposed

Full Bespoke Course Build

Creation of a new client-specific executive course including content, exercises, templates, assessments and digital assets.

What drives the fee
  • Number and length of modules
  • Research and subject-matter depth
  • Video or multimedia production
  • Custom assessments, cases and simulations
  • Review and approval rounds

Specialist faculty, filming, translation, travel and third-party licences can be priced separately.

€20,000–€100,000+ proposed

Multi-Programme Academy Setup

Architecture and build of a wider leadership academy spanning several pathways, roles, programmes and reporting needs.

Example

A company might commission CEO, future-C-suite, regional-leader and board-readiness pathways with shared diagnostics and an annual progression model.

This setup fee is separate from annual licences, seats, live delivery and ongoing support.

€5,000–€30,000+ proposed

Portal / Tenant Configuration

Branding, user roles, pathways, content mapping, reporting, onboarding flows and enterprise learning-environment setup.

Possible additions
  • Custom domain or branded tenant
  • SSO/integration discovery
  • Role-based dashboards
  • Manager reporting views
  • Custom onboarding communications
Quoted separately

Localisation, Updates & Change Requests

Translation, country adaptation, client-specific cases, regulatory/context updates and changes outside the agreed baseline scope.

Why this matters

A course built once can become a recurring asset, but every new market, language or major client-specific revision consumes production capacity. CEOBAL should monetise that work rather than absorb it.

Commercial rule: setup/build fees are separate from recurring licence fees, per-seat fees, memberships, assessments, live faculty delivery, travel, events and ongoing support. Prices shown are proposed starting architecture and should be confirmed in a written scope before work begins. VAT applies where required.
