Name Your False Prophet · Decision Gospel

When a hard truth arrives, what happens next?

It is named carefully, documented, and then abandoned. Someone asks whether we can take a step back. A demo is scheduled before the decision is named. A roadmap with phases appears within the week.

What does the room treat as proof?

A title and a citation. A newsletter pull quote. A binder and a badge. Velocity and a well-groomed backlog.

Which sentence sounds most familiar?

We can finish this inside the quarter if we cut scope. They will never use anything that ambitious. I have to push back on slide three. Who else is in the evaluation?
