One workflow. One confirmed problem. Fixed scope.

When the Bottleneck Map is clear enough to act on, the Fix Sprint stays narrow on purpose. It repairs one workflow problem without quietly expanding into a broader transformation project.

Clear findings, clean priorities, and a sensible next move.

Sales workflows

For bottlenecks in deal movement, target quality, proposals, proof assets, and next-step discipline.

Customer success workflows

For bottlenecks in handoffs, activation milestones, account rhythm, retention visibility, and growth triggers.

Operations workflows

For bottlenecks in payment follow-up, escalation, project ownership, status visibility, and delivery cadence.

The Bottleneck Map chooses the workflow worth fixing first. The sprint then stays locked to that workflow until the agreed output is finished.

Start with the bottleneck, not with the sprint.

The cleaner starting point is still the Bottleneck Map. It keeps the sprint tied to a confirmed workflow problem instead of a guess.
