Friday afternoon chaos doesn’t actually start on Friday.
It starts Monday, when the week is designed in a way that guarantees last-minute emergencies. If your team is piling on questions at 4:47 PM Friday afternoon, it’s not because they’re disorganized. It’s because you’ve built a system that rewards procrastination and punishes planning ahead.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why your calendar is training your team to procrastinate.
- The mindset shift that turns you from firefighter to system designer.
- A simple AI-powered framework that eliminates last-minute scrambles.
