What is the Faster path from policy intent course about?

Even senior-level practitioners face invisible drag: ambiguous handoffs, revision spirals, and unstructured feedback that stretches timelines. The cost isn’t just time, it’s lost momentum and diluted influence when leadership expects crisp output on tight windows.
