In this solo episode, Clara breaks down her go-to, battle-tested framework for launching any new project or program—from billion-dollar acquisitions to scrappy product rollouts. If you’ve ever been handed a vague assignment and wondered, “Where do I even start?”—this one’s for you.

You’ll learn:

• The 5 essential steps for kicking off a successful project

• How to define the “why,” “what,” “who,” “when,” and “how” of your work

• The underrated power of delivery structures and how to create one

• Why timelines should start high-level—and how to pressure test them

• The only meeting you really need to succeed and tools to keep everything on track

  
  

Plus, Clara shares a consulting story that started on the back of a napkin, the surprising value of a giant paper timeline, and her favorite project planning tools (spoiler: Excel still wins sometimes).
