The Afternoon Test
Decision latency diagnostic
Status reports show activity—not closure. Log the decisions your dashboard hides: when each call surfaced, how many alignment forums it consumed, whether it reopened, and how many days it took to close. Run the test on Wednesday afternoon or any cadence you can defend.
Vocabulary: Coordination Tax framework term.

About this tool
Measure closure, not activity
Coordination Tax accrues when alignment displaces decisions. Naming latency and re-decisions gives sponsors a fact base that slides and standups rarely surface.
Run it on a cadence you can defend
Wednesday afternoon works for many teams—the same window where high performers realize Thursday is already lost. Export a PDF for your sponsor readout or portfolio review.
