Operations

Map your weekly founder tasks, group them and spot where most of your time is draining.

Choose one routine task and document it step-by-step, ask someone else to test it.

Block one hour to build or refine a template you’ve been avoiding.

Ask your team to nominate the messiest process, lead a quick redesign sprint.

Pilot a short check-in focused only on operations, what’s working or breaking?

Conduct a task audit, highlight items to batch, drop, or streamline.

Decision-making

Keep a decision log for a week, note choices, reasons, and the outcomes.

Before your next major choice, write down at least three options beyond yes/no.

Run a quick “pre-mortem” with a peer, what could derail your current plan?

Ask two mentors for opposite views on one choice, reflect on the tension.

Lead a team through a structured decision matrix, compare weights and risks.

Force a decision today on one issue stuck for a week, commit and move forward.

Structure

Clarify who owns each of your top five launch priorities, list names or roles.

Sketch the escalation path for a risky task, who steps in if issues appear?

Hold a short workshop: “What’s working or broken in our current role setup?”

Draft a simple RACI map for one project, who’s Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, Informed?

Spot a task floating between roles, assign ownership and back them up.

Review your calendar, does it reflect your defined role, or hidden gaps?
