The Throughline

A 300-person logistics company, one quarter of calendar. Goals ring outward from the centre; meetings hang off the goals they serve. The cluster to the side is the third that hangs from nothing.

The org sits at the centre. Goals ring outward — company, then department, then team. Meetings hang off the goals they serve.

The cluster with severed threads is meetings that connect to no goal at all. Hover any node to trace its thread; click one for detail.

Operations is the story. Filter to it and the orphan cluster barely shrinks — most of what that team books connects to no goal on the board.

The biggest orphans repeat. The weekly all-hands and the ops sync are the two most expensive threads that go nowhere, every week, for the whole quarter.

Two goals are starved. Look for the rings with no threads at all — active goals nobody has met about once in twelve weeks.
