What is the Operational Self-Assessment Design course about?

Most self-assessments fail not because of poor intent, but because of weak structural design. They lack alignment with operational realities, governance expectations, and user behavior patterns. This leads to low adoption, repeated revisions, and diminished credibility , even when the underlying analysis is sound. The gap isn't knowledge, it's framework integrity.
