You’re deciding what to build.
You’re going into a new market.
You need to get people on board.
You decided months ago but nothing has moved.

The first step

Conversations with the people involved, across functions, plus the outside view. You get clarity as a written read: where it’s stuck, what has to be decided first, who needs convincing and what that rules out.

I work with companies where the individual decisions are good and the sum doesn’t hold. Best with people who would rather hear what doesn’t work than a story that sounds better.
