What's Inside
Refined over twenty years of writing status reports that get read by leadership instead of skimmed.
One format that adapts across the executive one-pager, the detailed program team report, and the risk-focused steering update. RAG, key updates, blockers, next steps, in the order leadership scans for them.
The common mistakes that lose your reader by paragraph two. What goes in, what stays out, how to write so the next step is obvious without a follow-up email.
Drop in your project name, set RAG, fill the sections. Your Monday status report is done before standup.
Most of us got promoted into program management without a starter pack. So every project opens with the same blank spreadsheet.
The format takes longer than the writing. Same tool, every Monday, every project.
The exec one-pager isn't the program team report. Most templates pretend they are, then nobody reads either one.
New project, new team, same scramble for last quarter's report to copy from.
One page, free. Use it on Monday.
Sixteen tools covering the program lifecycle from kickoff through retrospective. Status report generator, RAID, risk register, charter, pre-mortem, post-mortem, first 90 days kit, and more.
