Institutional Framework
EDUCATE → ASSESS → IMPROVE
Programs can stop at education or extend into defined assessment and technical-assistance components. This allows an organization to commission a single workshop, a training series, a cohort program, or a broader initiative with documented outcomes.
EDUCATE
Build understanding of local visibility, customer discovery, representation, trust and contact pathways.
ASSESS
Where included, evaluate defined visibility conditions using an appropriate GIRI Local methodology.
IMPROVE
Translate findings into recommendations, technical assistance or separately authorized professional work.
Education explains public LBVM concepts and the eight GLVS™ dimensions. Proprietary inspection procedures, scoring mechanics, evidence thresholds and internal assessor rules remain protected.
