Product thinking
Why shared understanding belongs at the beginning of every workflow.
Start with the whole picture
A request rarely contains everything a team needs to act. The relevant policy may live in a document, the owner in another system, and the history in a conversation. Bringing that context together helps people make a more deliberate decision.
Make the next step visible
A connected workflow should show what it knows, what it plans to do, and when it needs a person. The goal is a clear path from understanding to action, with enough evidence to review the choice.
