| Week | Focus | Gate | Signal |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | Map product-led owners + outcome statement for Product-led growth loops 90-Day Rollout Plan: Startups edition 2027 | budget variance alerts |
Decision clarity score >= 70/100 |
| 6 | Ship one improvement on growth | capacity planning checkpoint |
Movement in Decision Cycle Time |
| 8-10 | Codify playbook + internal links | weekly KPI review ritual |
Repeatable handoff without heroics |
