Weekly leadership sync
Purpose: One leadership-level forum for delivery each week — surfacing cross-account risk, capacity, and escalation before issues become sponsor-level fires. This is the default replacement for a portfolio-wide daily CSO+SL status round-robin.
Outcomes (30–45 min)
- Top 3 risks across the portfolio (client, technical, people).
- Escalations triaged with clear owners (supports Q2 KPI discipline: early, structured escalation vs surprise).
- Decisions Head of Delivery needs to make or delegate this week.
Non-goals
- Ticket-by-ticket status (belongs in Linear and account channels).
- Deep technical design (spin out focused session with SL + ICs).
Suggested agenda
Use agenda-template.md.
Inputs
- CSOs: client sentiment deltas, slip risks, sponsor asks.
- SLs: technical debt spikes, dependency blockers, quality concerns.
- Head of Delivery: priorities vs capacity, standards changes.
