SUMMARY:
In this episode, Aaron and Terryn tackle one of the most critical (and often overlooked) aspects of running successful operations: project plans. They share stories from launches gone sideways, explain why clear roles and timelines prevent chaos, and break down practical tools for keeping teams aligned—from simple Google Sheets to robust platforms like Asana. Along the way, they highlight the dangers of last-minute pivots, the importance of quality control, and why debriefs are essential for long-term success.
