Why it reads better

Commercial pressure points surfaced early

The first stage identifies the decisions, constraints, and team tensions that are slowing momentum.

Working sessions built for decisions, not theatre

Leadership sessions are framed around alignment, trade-offs, and ownership rather than abstract facilitation.

Clear next moves and operating follow-through

The work ends with a practical direction for the team, not a deck that dies in the inbox.
