// CORE OBSERVATION
Unstructured giving is an operational leak. When an organisation “helps” clients or partners through unbilled work or scope creep without a formal trade, it creates an invisible deficit that eventually bankrupts the mission.
Pressure Equalisation. In fluid systems, energy flows from high pressure to low pressure until they are equal. Without a “check valve” (a contract or boundary), your organisation’s resources will naturally drain into the “lower pressure” of a demanding client’s needs until your own reservoir is empty.
The Resentful Helper. You see a team that is constantly “doing favours” for clients who never seem satisfied. There is a lack of clarity on what is a “product” and what is a “gift,” leading to a culture where being helpful is confused with being exploited.
Strategic Insolvency. The organisation loses its “power to choose.” Because so much energy is tied up in uncompensated labor, you lack the reserves to invest in your own growth or to walk away from bad deals.
Reversing a “Margin Collapse” requires an objective audit of your energy exchange. Order a customised Coherence Snapshot—an automated diagnostic delivered immediately—to indicate where negative net energy is obstructing your present and future. This diagnostic reveals the true costs of your work, allowing you to price for survival and growth.
