Rituals
The Monday fifteen
How a fifteen-minute weekly ritual replaced three recurring meetings on our calendar.
Every Monday at 9:00 we spend fifteen minutes on exactly three questions: what moved last week, what surprised us, and what one thing gets our focus this week.
The constraint is the feature. Because the slot is short, nobody prepares slides, nobody performs, and the discussion goes straight to the numbers that changed.
Three standing meetings quietly disappeared within a month. Nobody asked for them back.
