Hi both, I'd like to run a session on what we fix first. It would need…
A doc with the times added up by hand, and the pitch still in drafts. One sentence becomes the pitch.
Say what the day has to change. Out comes the email, a rehearsal of the pushback, and a straight go or no-go.
The agenda times itself.
Drag exercises and breaks into order. The arc shows where the afternoon dies.
Graded before the room sees it.
A second opinion on the shape, not the content.
The pitch
I'm running a 2-hour session for the product team, so we can decide what to fix first.

A phone timer, and notes on the back of the printed agenda. The timer, the script and the room, on one screen.
Participants react and answer polls from their phones, and every reaction lands against the item that caused it.
For the minute it stalls.
Intervention cards: one tap, one thing to say next.
