Your 24/7 team is just 24/7 chaos
|
You wake up to 50 new messages from your team in Europe. Your QA lead in India says the build is broken. Your US team hasn't even logged on yet. This sounds like you are running a 24-hour chaos-engine. Fluent PM Playbook #22: The Single Source of Truth Fix As a specialist in global and cross-functional teams, I see this all the time. The problem isn’t the time zones…it’s the lack of a Single Source of Truth. When a team is distributed throughout the globe, you can’t rely on synced meetings. You must rely on a crystal-clear written process. My playbook:
Stop letting time zones be an excuse for delays. Start using them as a 24-hour execution advantage. Clarity isn’t just about what you say in a meeting. It’s about what you write down so your team can win while you sleep. You're burning money on "wasted work." You feel the friction, but you can't measure the cost. Stop guessing. I built a 60-second calculator to find the real number.

You just discovered a critical bug in production. You ask your team: "Whose fault is this?" Three people point at the codebase and each other. You are not failing because of bad code -> You are failing because of shared accountability. Fluent PM Playbook #27: The Single-Point Accountability (SPA) Fix In execution, shared responsibility means zero responsibility. It’s a management structure designed for excuses. As a Professional Scrum Master (PSM), my job is to create accountability....
You have a $5 Million idea. Your tech team tells you it will take 9 months and cost $750k to find out if it even works. So you kill the idea. You choose inaction over innovation. You are not failing at innovation...you are failing at risk management. Fluent PM Playbook #26: The 7-Day Profit Test Fix As an MBA and a PSM, my job is to de-risk your big ideas. We don’t build the $750k feature to test a theory. We build a $10k experiment to validate the profit. My playbook: The 7-Day Profit Test....
You just left a strategy meeting. You used words like synergy, disruption and pivot. So what's the problem? Your execution team just heard: "Go waste 5 days figuring out what the boss meant." The space between the boardroom and the backlog is where the budget bleeds. Fluent PM Playbook #24: The Buzzword -> Blueprint Fix As a TEFL-certified communication expert, I don’t let strategy stay abstract. I force it into the Buzzword -> Blueprint formula. A buzzword is a vague wish. A blueprint is an...
