I help product and engineering teams that are behind schedule and can't figure out why.
When leadership has tried everything – hiring more people, bringing in agile coaches, implementing new frameworks – and nothing works, I spend two weeks doing comprehensive forensic analysis to find what's actually broken.
I observe meetings, analyze communication patterns, investigate work management data, and interview team members. Then I combine what people say with what the data shows to reveal root causes invisible from inside the organization.
You get a detailed diagnostic report and a step-by-step blueprint to fix it.
At Stride, an 80-person product team was five months behind schedule with an 80% defect rate. Leadership had tried everything. Nothing improved.
My two-week diagnostic revealed the actual problem. 90 days after implementing the blueprint:
Productivity tripled – same people, 3x output
Cycle time dropped from 4-6 weeks to 5-7 days
Defect rate fell from 80% to 30%
Same people. Same budget. Completely different system.

Teams can't diagnose their own systemic problems. It's like trying to read the label from inside the bottle.
I've spent 20+ years leading product and engineering teams across technology, education, healthcare, fintech, and media. I've seen these patterns dozens of times. I know what to look for and what actually needs to change.
Most teams aren't failing because people are incompetent. They're failing because the system is broken and nobody inside can see it.
Learn to recognize what's actually breaking your team's delivery before it costs you months of missed deadlines. See patterns invisible from inside your organization.
