Diagnostic clarity is immediate. Most teams feel cleaner conversations within days. Sprints deliver direction, message frames, and a 90–120‑day plan inside 10–21 days so momentum shows up in the next cycle.

What changes first

  • Decisions get easier: you know what to say, show, and stop.

  • Fewer price debates: conversations shift to timing and scope.

  • Meetings shrink: pre‑reads and examples replace long explanations.

Diagnostic timeline

  • Day 0–1: 90‑minute session → Clarity Map and decision rules.

  • Day 1–2: 90‑day roadmap (priorities, owners, acceptance criteria).

  • Week 1: cleaner conversations, tighter answers to “what do you do?”

Sprint timeline (10–21 days)

  • Week 1: Learn — workshop, diagnosis deck, decision shortlist.

  • Week 2: Think — direction deck, message frames, examples of “good.”

  • Week 3: Execute — blueprint, acceptance criteria, 90–120‑day plan.

What affects speed

  • Decision access: founders and leads in the room.

  • Proof at hand: believable examples we can place quickly.

  • Scope discipline: fewer high‑impact assets, done right.

Indicators it’s working

  • Faster approvals from senior buyers.

  • Fewer “send more examples” replies; more specific next steps.

  • Your team reuses the same language and examples without prompts.

Common delays (and fixes)

  • Late approvals → book short review windows with acceptance criteria.

  • Missing proof → use credible, anonymized examples now, replace later.

  • Scope creep → stick to the roadmap; add phases, don’t bloat.
