What is the Operational Clarity for High-Growth Technical course about?

When technical systems grow beyond a few core people, decision fatigue sets in. What worked informally breaks. Leaders end up firefighting, reinventing responses, or overloading on oversight. Without a repeatable framework, every escalation feels like a first-time problem , even when it’s not.
