πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’« The Problem: Kickoff Chaos

Team not aligned. Client unsure. Deliverables fuzzy.
Every PM has faced that painful moment during a kickoff when…
  • No one has read the brief
  • Roles are unclear
  • The first week turns into fire-fighting
I used to spend hours crafting kickoff notes manually β€” now it takes 5 minutes with ChatGPT and Notion.
