• Notice the make-it-better gap between the spec and the shipped thing

What You'll Bring

• Enough Negotiation to be dangerous, enough Organization to be trusted

• Manager-caliber judgment about when to upscale and when to absorb
• Comfort defending a recommendation in front of skeptics
• A warm-yet-rigorous bias toward action, balanced by knowing when to wait
