Preview โ€” The Goal

๐ŸŽฏ The Goal: Two people on the team are at war โ€” passive-aggressive Slack threads, meetings gone icy, everyone else quietly picking sides. Left alone, festering conflict doesn't stay contained: it corrupts the whole team's speed and mood, and your best people start updating their resumes. The triage system: get it OUT of text channels immediately, separate the operational problem from the emotional one, and convert the fight into specific, dated commitments.
