| Week | Focus | Gate | Signal |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 | Map retention owners + outcome statement for Retention Case Ultimate Guide 2027: For In-House Teams | baseline data disclosure | Decision clarity score >= 48/100 |
| 4 | Ship one improvement on case | intervention timeline | Movement in Replication Readiness |
| 8-10 | Codify playbook + internal links | confounder notes | Repeatable handoff without heroics |
Anti-pattern to kill early: shipping retention changes with no rollback note.
KPI board for this topic

| Replication Readiness | current baseline | +10% (+7% buffer) | +24% |
| Process Adoption | current baseline | +8% (+7% buffer) | +20% |
| Learning Capture Quality | current baseline | +9% (+7% buffer) | +22% |
| Outcome Clarity | current baseline | +12% (+7% buffer) | +28% |
Review rule: if Replication Readiness is flat after two cycles, diagnose ownership and intervention timeline before adding new tactics.
