What is the Fix the Stakeholder Alignment Loop That’s course about?

You send a draft, then wait. Some stakeholders reply late, others not at all. Then, two days before the deadline, conflicting inputs flood in. You rework slides, reset timelines, and absorb the cost. This isn’t about buy-in, it’s about process failure. The loop wasn’t designed for how people actually respond. And because it’s not codified, every engagement repeats the same friction.
