Lighthouse Selection Checklist (Goldilocks Gate)
10-point Goldilocks-Zone filter. Three parts: Value (does it matter?), Feasibility (can we build it?), Ecosystem (can we protect it?). Verdict: 10/10 Green Light · 8-9 Amber Light · <8 Red Light. The book is explicit — "If you cannot check all 10 boxes, choose a different project."
Checked / 10
Tick every check that truly applies, then score the gate.
The Goldilocks Zone: small enough to ship, big enough to matter, decoupled enough to deliver, and protected enough to survive.
Agile Data Readiness Assessment
The "Green Light" Detector. 15 weighted questions across Data (30%), Delivery (30%), and Culture (40%). Pierces "Transformation Theater" via two non-linear modifiers: Manual Drag (Q9 = 1 → Delivery × 0.8) and Safety Veto (Q12 ≤ 2 → score capped at 40). Answer how things are today on a busy Tuesday morning, not how you wish them to be.
Answered / 15
Answer all 15 questions, then score your readiness.
A toxic culture (Q12 ≤ 2) caps your final score at 40, regardless of how good your tech is.
Cultural Debt Audit
5-question diagnostic. 1 = "describes us perfectly" (high debt) · 5 = "not true at all" (Agile culture). Total 5–25 → Toxic Debt / Transitioning / Agile Culture.
Answered / 5
Answer all 5 questions to score the cultural-debt audit.
Bilingual Executive's Compass
How is your time split across the four cardinals? N Value Creation · S Operational Excellence · E Innovation Velocity · W Risk Intelligence. Be the Needle — oscillate. Stuck SW = Trad Banker trap. Stuck NE = Reckless Fintech trap.
Set your time allocation across the 4 cardinals (must sum to 100%) and read the Needle.
Agile Talent Radar
5-axis spider chart. Hire for SPIKES, not flat 3/5 generalists. Score the candidate against the role's target shape. Rule of Spikes: a Product Owner can be 2 on Tech if the Tech Lead is 5.
Score the candidate on each of the 5 canonical axes, then check spike fit.
Middle-Manager Reinvention
3-step guide for VPs / Directors who want to move from Gatekeeper to Value Enabler. Approver→Designer · Controller→Blocker-Buster · Hoarder→Connector. DBS RED benchmark: managers who killed stupid rules saved 260M customer hours.
Score yourself honestly on each shift, then audit.
Storyboard Audit
Storyboard the customer journey frame-by-frame. Surface the "broken frames" where the dashboard says Green but the customer feels Red. Brian Chesky hired a Pixar animator (not a data analyst) — same pattern.
Storyboard at least one frame and audit.
3 R's Workforce Transition Planner
For each role, decide: Retrain (high-empathy → Customer Success), Redeploy (Excel macro builders → Low-Code), Release (manual data entry — generous exit), or Keep (low automatability).
Add affected roles and plan their 3-R transition.
Six-Page Memo Enforcer
No PowerPoint. 6-page narrative memo required for decisions. The rule (adopted by JPMC and Capital One): full sentences expose Black Box thinking. This tool grades length, bullet density, narrative paragraphs, jargon, and decision anchors.
Paste a decision memo (or load the sample) and grade.
Mystery-Shop Test
Open an account on a leading fintech app (Revolut / Wise / Nubank). Count the clicks. Then try the same on YOUR bank's app. The difference in friction is your "Burning Platform."
Fill in both apps' click counts and tag the friction. Then compare.
Regulatory Sandbox Shields
Three named shields a Lighthouse pilot uses to negotiate regulator waiver: Volume Cap (fiduciary shield), Manual Fallback (compliance shield), Parallel Run (core-system shield).
Configure all three shields and score them.
Reskilling Program Planner
Plan an OCBC-style reskilling program. Benchmark: $20M, 29K staff, 1,300 redeployed. Pick modules from the canonical curriculum (Data Storytelling, HCD, Cyber, AI Literacy, Low-Code, etc.).
Configure the program and pick modules, then plan.
Vested Outsourcing — Bonus / Malus
Restructure a vendor contract from T&M (Mercenary) to Outcome-based (Missionary). Three canonical clauses: Agile Capacity · Upside Bonus (15% pool) · Stability Malus (5% / Sev-1 hour, capped 50%). Vendor keeps half the automation savings.
Configure the contract, KPIs, and parameters, then calculate.
PII Cost-of-Carry Calculator
Quantify the expected annual loss of holding PII you no longer need. Equifax baseline: $700M settlement for 147M records ≈ $4.76 per record. Toxicity = volume × retention × governance gap.
Configure the dataset and quantify the carry.
Omar 2015 — Friction Sim
You are Omar, a small business owner. Your supplier offers a 20% inventory discount expiring Friday. You need a bridge loan from your bank. The "Wet Ink" branch process is between you and the cash. Can you beat Day 23?
Tuesday, 2:00 PM. You\'re in traffic. You arrive at the branch at 2:15. Ticket #142. You forgot the stamped tax return. The discount expires Friday EOD.
A modern fintech (Wise, Revolut, Kabbage) would have funded this in ~4 minutes. You took — that is slower.
Working Software vs Documents
You chair the steering committee for a $32M / 8-quarter outsourced build. Each quarter, choose how to review project health — status reports, slide-deck QBRs, or live working-software demos. Will you spot the Watermelon before it bursts?
8 quarters. $32M budget. The vendor pitches "85% complete" status reports. The truth lives in the live demo. Pick wisely.
Q review — pick your approach
Next-Best-Conversation Planner
Plan an AI-augmentation program along the CommBank CEE pattern (157B data points, 35M decisions/day, hundreds of millions saved in churn prevention). Pick conversation triggers, project the churn-reduction lift.
Pick triggers, set program parameters, plan.
Digital Eagles Ambassador Program
Design a Barclays-style program: branch staff become voluntary "Digital Eagles" who TEACH (not sell). Their job is to walk customers through digital fluency — defusing the "job killer" narrative.
Configure parameters and skills, then design.
Clap for Red Light — Board Ritual Sim
You are the new CEO. The bank lost $17B. Every BPR (Business Plan Review), VPs present statuses. Will you flip the Watermelon culture by clapping for the first honest Red — or punish it and entrench the lying?
5 Business Plan Reviews. Every reaction shifts the bank's psychological safety. The first VP who tells you the truth deserves something — applause, silence, or punishment?
National Rails — Leapfrog Sim
The Central Bank just announced a national instant-payment network goes live in 12 months. It will eat your fee revenue. Each quarter, choose how to position. Fight the regulator? Become the default channel? Or quietly become the Post Office of the rail era?
$100M of fee revenue is at stake. The rail will happen with or without you. Your only real choice is whether YOU become the default interface to it.

Zombie Room Escape
Five Scrum ceremonies have been zombified -- they look alive but produce nothing. Enter each room, diagnose the dysfunction, and prescribe the fix before the 3-minute timer expires.

Audit Quest
Auditors arrive in 8 weeks. Zero documentation. You must balance audit readiness, delivery velocity, and budget across 8 turns. Each choice has consequences. Automation investments compound over time.
Docs: +audit, -velocity | Ship: +velocity, -audit | Automate: costs budget, compounds value
Turn 4: Surprise scope change -- be ready
Random auditor personality each game
Governance Tightrope
Six technology decisions. For each, choose Light, Medium, or Heavy governance. Too light and risk collapses. Too heavy and innovation dies. Consecutive same-direction choices build drift -- and opposing drift costs double.
Light: +15 innovation, -20 risk
Medium: +5/+5, reduces drift
Heavy: -15 innovation, +20 risk
Game over if either meter drops below 30

Strangler Fig Migration
Migrate 6 banking capabilities off a legacy vendor before budget runs out or the contract expires. Manage dependencies, parallel risk, and vendor cost bleed. Every quarter the vendor charges maintenance on unmigrated capabilities.
Budget: $100M | Vendor base cost: $60M/quarter (decreases as you migrate)
Dependencies: Risk Engine needs KYC | Reporting needs CRM
Parallel migrations increase risk event chance (1.5x)

Lighthouse Scaling
Scale from 1 lighthouse team to 10+ teams over 6 quarters. Each quarter, choose how many new teams to add (0-3) and their training level. Too fast degrades quality. Too slow loses executive patience. Cultural resistance grows with scale.
Training: Low ($5M) | Med ($15M, +8 quality) | High ($25M, +15 quality)
Exec patience decays -15/quarter; milestones give bonuses
Cultural resistance grows with total teams
Win: 10+ teams at >70% quality with patience remaining
