What is the Stop Rebuilding the Same Engineering course about?
Every month, engineering VPs like Jesse pull together governance decks that summarize program health, risk exposure, and team velocity. But source data lives in silos, Jira, Teams, Excel, email, requiring manual consolidation. Formatting breaks when stakeholders edit, version control fails, and last-minute changes trigger rework. The process repeats identically next month. This isn’t strategy, it’s spreadsheet labor that steals time from real.
