Same company.Two stories.

Morellius, by The Brand Building Shop, measures the distance between what leadership says and what people understand, and shows exactly where it opens.

Leadership says

“We’re becoming the most trusted partner for mid-size manufacturers.”

The team hears

“We’re cutting costs and chasing bigger clients.”

62Credibility Gap · HighIllustrative example · 0 = no gap, 100 = maximum gap

The story travels down. It doesn’t arrive intact.

Each level retells what it heard from the one above. Morellius reads every version against the original and scores the drift.

  1. C-suite“We’re becoming the most trusted partner for mid-size manufacturers.”12
  2. VP“We’re moving upmarket, toward bigger manufacturers.”31
  3. Manager“We need bigger accounts and tighter margins.”54
  4. Staff“We’re cutting costs and chasing bigger clients.”69

Illustrative example. The real report traces each gap by level, area and generation when enough people answer.

A gap is a distance you can measure.

Each gap compares the story leadership intends with the story people can retell, on one scale from 0 to 100. Zero means the message arrived; the higher the number, the more was lost on the way.

    The report

    Each gap scored from 0 to 100, where the message breaks by level and area, and what to address first.

From one company to a whole network.

One organization

Leadership, team and market, read against the same foundations. For a raise, a pivot or a strategy that has to land beyond the leadership team.

Franchise networks

The brand sets the foundations; each unit and its team answer for themselves. A General Report shows where the brand promise holds across the network and where it breaks.

Anonymous by design. No answer is shown with a name or role, quotes become themes, and small groups are never singled out.
