Deadlines slipped. The team stopped communicating openly. Scope grew without anyone deciding to grow it. You're not sure if the project can be saved, but you're not ready to kill it either. Reset gives you an honest picture of what went wrong and a structured path to get it back on track.
A two-phase engagement — diagnose first, then facilitate recovery.
We start with structured interviews with your sponsor and team members individually, review your project artifacts, and build an honest diagnostic of what actually went wrong and what's recoverable.
Then we run a facilitated reset session that re-establishes scope, ownership, and commitments — and closes with a realistic path forward.
If any of these describe your situation, Reset is the right fit.

Yes. The diagnostic report is honest — that's the whole point. We identify what actually went wrong, not what's convenient to hear. Then we help you decide what to do about it.
If the diagnosis indicates that, we say so. But most projects in trouble can be recovered — they just need honest assessment and structured intervention. The diagnosis determines your path forward.
Interviews can be remote. The reset session works best in-person if possible. We can facilitate hybrid, but in-person tends to produce better outcomes with troubled teams.
Typically 4–6 weeks from discovery through follow-up. Depends on team availability for interviews. We'll nail down a timeline on the discovery call.
