What is the Production-Grade Conflicts Management course about?
In high-growth environments, misalignment between engineering, product, and operations often escalates into recurring conflicts. Without formal systems, leaders spend disproportionate time firefighting instead of advancing strategy. Ad-hoc resolutions create inconsistency, eroding psychological safety and slowing down execution velocity.
