Mini scenario
A: The issue affects scope, resources and the delivery plan.
B: Let us compare the options before we commit.
A: I need the technical and commercial impacts confirmed.
B: I will update the stakeholders after the review.
Move one level up
Repeat the scenario, but add one wider consequence: schedule, cost, quality, risk, customer impact, team workload or another stakeholder. Notice how the language changes when you must explain not only what happened, but also what it means and who owns the next action.
Your turn
Give a 60-second update from this role. Include the current status, one issue, its impact, the action owner and the next review time.
