Standards fail most often at the seams—when responsibility is assumed, muddled, or left unpaid. The Quiet Handoff is a compact, repeatable protocol: a single‑sentence transfer that names the task, the desired outcome, and the modest next step so work or care moves cleanly between people without drama. James explains why clean handoffs protect reputation and margin, offers three precise one‑line scripts for work, family, and daily logistics, and teaches a 60‑second nightly routine to close the day with tidy responsibility. You’ll get tonal coaching so the line lands steady not sharp, a three‑day micro‑trial to prove the practice reduces follow‑ups and friction, and a simple measurement method (fewer renegotiations, calmer replies). Practical, low‑ego, and immediately usable: learn to transfer responsibly so your standards travel with the task instead of being negotiated away.
