The Sacred Ceremony of the kickoff meeting. 

A beautiful ritual where everyone nods… 

And no one says what they’re actually thinking. 

In this episode, we take a hard look at what kickoff meetings are supposed to be—and what they usually turn into: 

• The gap between optimism and execution reality 

• The risks nobody wants to bring up in the room 

• How misalignment gets baked in on Day One 

• And what contracting professionals are really listening for during the meeting 

Because kickoff meetings don’t create clarity. 

They expose whether clarity already exists. 

If you’ve sat through one of these sacred ceremonies… you’ll recognize it immediately.
