# DeadReckon

> DeadReckon helps leaders and teams see what is actually happening, make better decisions under uncertainty, and move when established playbooks stop working.

DeadReckon is a leadership and organizational development practice founded by Brent Weber and Jeremiah Gardner. Tagline: When the Map Runs Out.

Its discipline is Diagnostic Leadership. Understand what is happening before deciding what to do. The practice is built around three questions:

1. What do I see?
2. What is driving it?
3. What does this moment need?

Diagnostic Leadership is introduced in the book *The Read* by Jeremiah Gardner (February 9, 2027 · Halocline Press).
