  • SituationalYou're a product director. A weekly retention chart shows a two-point drop over the last three weeks — not dramatic, but your instincts say something's real. Your PMs are focused on launches. What do you do this week?
  • SituationalYou're a VP sales. One of your strongest AEs has missed quota for two quarters in a row after years of top performance. No obvious life changes, no customer complaints. You have a 1:1 Monday. How do you walk into it?
  • SituationalYou're an eng manager. A code-review bot just flagged 30% more comments from a specific reviewer on a specific junior engineer's PRs. It could be many things. What do you do over the next week?
  • SituationalYou're head of CS. Three mid-tier customers in the last 10 days have independently mentioned the same concern about a product edge case. None have escalated. What do you do with this signal?
  • SituationalYou're a design lead. Your engagement metric for a flagship feature dropped 8% last week. Product analytics says nothing changed; your designer thinks a new competitor may explain it. What do you do before your next review?
  • SituationalYou're a policy lead. A watchdog just published a critical blog post about your product with two misleading claims and one fair one. Social is picking up. What do you do tonight?
