STEP 1 · CENTURIO PASSAGE ASSESSMENT
Read the situation.
60 minutes · CHF 500
Receive a human-reviewed CPA Coverage Finding that clarifies your responsibility situation and the next step supported by the evidence.
Structure First. Not AI First.
PRIVATE-PAY EXECUTIVE ASSESSMENT
The fixes helped. Why does the responsibility still land on you?
New tools, rules or change programmes may have improved the service. Yet critical decisions, exceptions or accountability may still come back to you.
Before you invest in another fix, find out what you are actually carrying, what your mandate covers and what options the evidence supports.
Centurio Passage Assessment (CPA)
60-minute confidential remote assessment · CHF 500 · Human-reviewed CPA Coverage Finding
The Fit Check is free. The paid CPA is a separate assessment after personal fit confirmation.
No score. No automated diagnosis. CPA fit is confirmed personally by Tom Kostrzewa.
Your answers stay in your browser unless you choose to share them.
The Mandate–Service–Liability Knot becomes visible at the point where consequences land.
01 / WHAT KEEPS RETURNING
You have tried to fix it. What keeps returning?
You may already have invested considerable effort in improving the situation. Some of those improvements may be real. But if the same critical responsibility still returns to you, an important part of the problem may remain unresolved.
- Better tools.
- Yet you are still the one catching critical exceptions.
- More governance.
- Yet accountability still exceeds your decision authority.
- Another transformation.
- Yet the handovers still depend on you.
- Higher adoption.
- Yet more edge cases and consequences reach your desk.
- Leadership coaching.
- You handle the pressure better, but the same responsibility remains.
Maybe the next step is not another solution.
Maybe it is a more accurate reading of the responsibility you are expected to carry.
These approaches may be valuable. The question is what remains unresolved when personal compensation is still required.
02 / YOUR PERSONAL DECISION
What you receive for CHF 500
A concise, human-reviewed CPA Coverage Finding that helps you distinguish:
- What responsibility you are actually carrying.
- Where your mandate and the organisational structure provide support.
- Where structural coverage may be incomplete or unclear.
- What is evidenced, what is inferred and what is not yet visible.
- Which responsible next step the available evidence supports.
You do not receive a generic leadership score or another list of improvement ideas. You receive an evidence-based first reading of your responsibility situation and a clearer basis for deciding what to do next.
Know what you are carrying, what the structure covers — and what options you really have.
The CPA may reveal overlooked options. It does not guarantee more authority, more freedom or an immediate organisational change. It is not a complete organisational diagnosis or sponsor-ready evidence.
Evidence Contract · Human Diagnosis Gate
The finding separates evidenced, inferred and not-yet-visible information. Tom retains responsibility for diagnosis and the evidence-dependent next state: Interpares Passage · Revisit / HOLD · No-Fit.
For your decision first.
Your organisation may own the operational problem. But the decisions you face, the responsibility you carry and the consequences for your professional position also concern you personally.
The CPA is designed to give you a confidential, evidence-based understanding of your own responsibility situation before you decide what, if anything, should be taken further.
It is a personal responsibility assessment — not an HR appraisal, performance review or organisational audit.
Employer or sponsor involvement is not automatic. Any subsequent disclosure or organisational engagement must follow the applicable confidentiality, consent and data-handling arrangements agreed for the engagement.
Clarity first. Action where warranted.
STEP 2 · INTERPARES PASSAGE
Clarify the mandate.
8 weeks · CHF 2,200 · Separate engagement
Where the CPA finding supports further work, Interpares Passage helps you develop your personal mandate position and test a responsible change in a real decision, boundary or escalation.
The outcome is an Interpares Mandate Boundary Map and an evidenced minimum effect in real action.
Passage is optional and separately commissioned. The CHF 500 CPA fee is credited towards Interpares Passage when Passage begins within 30 days.
03 / THE FREE FIT CHECK
What the CPA Fit Check helps you decide
The free, five-question CPA Fit Check takes 3–5 minutes. It helps exposed service leaders and service buyers consider whether a separate, paid CPA may be the right next step. Tom Kostrzewa confirms CPA fit personally before an assessment is booked.
What it looks for
Pressure where mandate, service boundaries, decision rights and accountability no longer move together.
What it is not
Not an AI maturity test, leadership score, organisational diagnosis or automated acceptance into CPA.
What may follow
Orientation, a Centurio Briefing, personal CPA-fit confirmation or no action—depending on the situation.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the CPA Fit Check?
It is a short, non-diagnostic decision aid that helps you consider whether the Centurio Passage Assessment may be an appropriate next step.
Who is the CPA Fit Check for?
It is for service leaders and service buyers carrying decisions, approvals, escalations or consequences where formal structure may no longer provide equivalent support.
Does it assess AI maturity?
No. The Fit Check focuses on responsibility exposure under AI visibility and related organisational pressure—not on tools, readiness or maturity.
What happens after the Fit Check?
Your suitable route may be orientation, a Centurio Briefing, a request for personal CPA-fit confirmation or no action. Tom confirms CPA fit personally before an assessment is booked.
Why is the CPA positioned as a private-pay executive assessment?
The CPA is designed for executives who want a confidential, evidence-based understanding of their own responsibility situation and available options. It is commissioned as a separate personal assessment, not as an automatic HR review or organisational programme. The fee is CHF 500 for a 60-minute remote assessment and its human-reviewed CPA Coverage Finding. Confidentiality and disclosure are governed by the applicable agreed terms.
04 / THE STRUCTURAL QUESTION
Responsibility Exposure
Responsibility Exposure arises when a person becomes accountable for service impact that is not equally covered by mandate, service definition, decision rights and structural support.
It becomes more visible when responsibility grows faster than the mandate, decision rights, service boundaries or structural coverage supporting it. Repeated decisions, approvals, escalations, exceptions, service failures, personal workarounds or denser evidence requirements may make that relationship recognisable. One indicator alone is not a diagnosis.
Centurio
The exposed service leader at the point where decisions, service impact and operational consequences meet.
05 / THE VISIBILITY CONTEXT
AI Visibility
AI is not automatically the problem. AI, automation, vendor change, digitalisation, reorganisation and rising auditability can make contributions, decisions and consequences more attributable before supporting structure catches up.
The structural question is whether decisions, explanations, exceptions or accountability now land differently while mandate, decision rights, service boundaries and structural coverage remain unclear or lag behind.
