30-minute weekly review

A weekly ops meeting should be a control mechanism, not a status meeting.

A decision-first weekly operations review agenda for founders and COOs.

Minutes 0–10: exceptions

Review only the highest-severity or highest-exposure exceptions and anything overdue.

Minutes 10–20: KPI and controls

Review red or amber KPIs, weak controls and new failure patterns.

Minutes 20–30: decisions

Assign owners, approve corrective actions, choose what to automate and escalate only what truly needs leadership.
