We tend to treat workflow issues as operational problems.
But clunky systems and unclear roles donโ€™t just slow things down.
They wear people down.

People start to question their managerโ€™s priorities.
They wonder why no one is fixing what clearly isnโ€™t working.
And eventually, they stop speaking up altogether.

These arenโ€™t just inefficiencies.

New hires canโ€™t get the tools or access they need for days or even
weeks.
Approvals stall because no one owns the final decision.
People feel punished for doing โ€œthe right thingโ€ outside a rigid
process.
Role candidates are ghosted when theyโ€™re not selected and never hear
back.

Over time these gaps send a message.

Ask your team what one process theyโ€™d change or eliminate if they
could.

When you hear frustration, donโ€™t dismiss it, translate it into a fixable
insight.

Map one recurring task from the peopleโ€™s point of view and look for
hidden friction.
