The Scenario
An experienced engineer misses a key delivery deadline for a client-facing feature. There was no prior warning, and stakeholders are now chasing for answers.
What to Do Next
- Start with a calm 1:1: “Walk me through what happened.”
- Identify where things slipped: estimation, prioritisation, or unexpected complexity
- Clarify expectations on raising risks early
- Reset delivery plan with clear checkpoints
How the Companion Helps
Provides structured reflection prompts to unpack what really caused the miss. Helps track recurring delivery risks and builds a habit of surfacing blockers early.
