Trigger-Based Planning

Most Q4 plans fail because they are lists, not decisions. This 90-day plan turns September’s sponsor, evidence, and stay-or-go framework into trigger-based moves tied to sponsor behavior, workload drift, hiring signals, and evidence deadlines.

September 2026 still has a hires rate near 3.2% and a quits rate near 1.9%. The 90-day Q4 plan that works is the one built on triggers and decision gates, not on a wish list.
