Authority Gap Diagnostic (tool)

The Authority Gap Diagnostic is a 5-minute self-assessment for experienced professionals whose work isn't earning the recognition their expertise warrants.

You'll score yourself across the three dimensions of professional authority:

1. Substance (the depth of your expertise),
2. Signal (how visible your expertise is to the wider market), and
3. Social Proof (third-party validation from media, peers, and platforms).

Your results reveal where the gap sits between how your clients see you and how the broader market sees you, your matched pattern from five common authority archetypes (Hidden Expert, Visible Expert, Perceived Expert, Aligned Authority, Aligned Builder), and a clear priority for where to invest first to close the gap.

Built for: Experienced professionals, solo practice owners, and expert founders with at least five to seven years in their field who suspect their reputation isn't keeping up with the depth of their work.
