Investor update
Each month or quarter, the founder gets a drafted update for investors: the headline, key figures against plan and last period, cash and runway, wins, problems told plainly with what is being done, and specific asks. Every figure comes from the company's own reports. The founder approves and sends it.

Your chief executive gets a proposed calendar of leadership forums and written reports, built from today's meetings and the decisions left waiting: each forum with its purpose, inputs, attendees, frequency and one decision owner, and the hours it gives back.

Premortem before a decision
Before your team commits to a plan that is hard to undo, such as a move, a launch or a new system, a short workshop pictures it a few months on, already failed. The record ranks the reasons, turns each top risk into a check, a warning sign and an owner, and leaves the go decision with the owner.
