About TALUS-2

A better question starts before breakdown.

TALUS-2 focuses on the strain that builds quietly, before it becomes visible breakdown. The work begins by asking what is carrying more than it can sustain.

TALUS-2™ is more than one framework. It is the institute behind Vulnerability Under Load™, with books, an audiobook, guides and tools, and Mapping work for people, organizations, data centers, and municipalities.

Vulnerability Under Load™ is the foundation: a plain framework that looks at four things, always in the same order: Load, Capacity, Compensation, and Consequence. When a person, a team, or a system has to work harder to produce the same result, the strain is already there, even if nothing has broken yet.

TALUS-2 was founded by Aurelio Jimenez, Founder and Chief Architect, who created Vulnerability Under Load™.
