Explanation

A Readiness Assessment evaluates an organization's preparedness to implement a strategic change by addressing four key questions: if the change should be made, when it should occur, what specifically will change, and how the change will be executed. This is distinct from a Gap Analysis, which compares current state to desired future state to identify deficiencies, and from Change Analysis, which evaluates the nature and impact of a change. The 'if, when, what, and how' framing is the defining characteristic of a Readiness Assessment in portfolio management.
