What is the Production-Grade Change Management course about?

High-performing teams are expected to move fast, yet most change frameworks were built for slower cycles and rigid controls. This mismatch creates friction, innovation gets delayed, compliance becomes reactive, and teams burn out navigating ambiguity. The pressure grows as stakeholders demand both speed and auditability.
