Behavioral Measurement for AI Competency

$ cat range/overview.md

RANGE measures what people do with AI, not what they say. Five behavioral dimensions that capture real AI competency — observable, measurable, and research-backed.

$ cat range/dimensions/*.md

$ cat range/reach.md

## Reach

How far into unfamiliar territory can you extend AI-augmented work?

Measures willingness and ability to apply AI beyond comfort zones — new domains, novel problems, unfamiliar tools. High Reach means you don't just use AI where it's obvious; you find leverage in unexpected places.

$ cat range/autonomy.md

## Autonomy

How independently can you close AI-augmented loops?

Measures ability to move from prompt to outcome without external scaffolding. High Autonomy means you can identify the right tool, craft the right approach, evaluate the output, and iterate — all without hand-holding.

$ cat range/navigation.md

## Navigation

How well do you orient in ambiguity and choose the right path?

Measures judgment under uncertainty — knowing when to use AI, when not to, which approach fits, and when to pivot. High Navigation means you read the terrain before moving.

$ cat range/generalization.md

## Generalization

How well do you transfer AI skills across domains and contexts?

Measures portability of AI competency. Can you apply what you learned in marketing to operations? In writing to analysis? High Generalization means your AI skills aren't siloed — they compound.

$ cat range/execution-fidelity.md

## Execution Fidelity

How reliably do you ship quality outcomes with AI?

Measures consistency and quality of AI-augmented output. High Execution Fidelity means your AI-assisted work is indistinguishable from (or better than) expert manual work — every time, not just sometimes.

$ diff self-report.md behavioral-measurement.md

## Behavioral Measurement vs. Self-Report

Most AI readiness assessments ask people how confident they feel. RANGE watches what they actually do. The gap between self-reported confidence and observable competency is where organizations get blindsided. RANGE closes that gap.

- Self-report: "I feel comfortable with AI"

+ Behavioral: "Given an unfamiliar problem, they reached for AI, selected an appropriate tool, iterated 3 times, and shipped a quality deliverable in 40 minutes."

$ cat range/training-progression.md

## How Training Maps to RANGE

Every Catalyst training program is designed to move specific RANGE dimensions. Intensives build Execution Fidelity and initial Reach. Foundations develops all five dimensions through progressive challenges. Coaching deepens Autonomy and Navigation through sustained practice.
