What is the Fix the Stakeholder Alignment Loop course about?

Every funding cycle, the same thing happens: after initial approval, legal flags a compliance nuance, ops pushes back on integration scope, and suddenly the timeline slips. The deal doesn’t die , it limps. You end up re-running impact assessments, re-presenting business cases, and chasing sign-offs that should’ve been locked. This isn’t risk management , it’s rework caused by misaligned assumptions baked into.
