What is the Stop Control Fatigue course about?

Each cycle, control owners submit fragments in different formats. You pull logs, reformat inputs, reconcile version mismatches, and rebuild dashboards from scratch. The report you deliver is already outdated, and the feedback loop starts again. This isn’t strategy , it’s spreadsheet debt. The cost isn’t just time; it’s credibility when exceptions pile up not because controls are weak, but because reporting is.
