Governance & Accountability Systems

Clarify who decides, who owns, and what happens when issues stall.

When authority is unclear, execution slows.

Decisions bounce between departments.
Managers improvise.
Escalations happen late.
Accountability appears only after failure.

What looks like a people issue is often an operating design issue.
