Activity continues, nothing is decided. Detail is explored, then explored again.
Pressure builds, progress stalls. No one owns the risk or the delay.
Delay becomes the decision.
Sein makes a choice unavoidable. Proceed, stop, or wait, but chosen.
Commitments exceed capacity.
Most organisations don't fail in delivery. Too much is committed.
Backlog balloons, WIP takes-off, nothing is explicitly stopped. Delivery clogs up and slows.
Sein changes how work moves. Things stop, WIP falls. Flow improves.
Structures exist, but outcomes are poor.
Forums run. Papers move. Decisions get recorded. But commitments carry on.
Sein builds in challenge. The answer holds.
