Sunday Solutions Stress Test

Most "production problems" are actually system problems.

When your team is frazzled, it’s usually because they are trapped in a cycle of last minute changes and "hero-mode" fixes. This leads to burnout and a service that feels like survival rather than worship.

This 2-minute diagnostic identifies the "leaks" in your process. It isn't about judging your talent—it’s about identifying where your systems are failing your people.
