What is the Fix the Stakeholder Alignment Loop course about?

Every deal review triggers new feedback, misaligned expectations, and last-minute changes. The same points get debated repeatedly because there’s no shared reference point established early. Presentations are rebuilt monthly, not evolved. This creates a hidden tax on delivery speed and increases control risk when versions diverge. The cost isn’t just time, it’s credibility when execution appears reactive.
