Chief of staff
Runs the loop: triage, assignment, the active-item budget and company memory.
The seats
21 seats around your table.
Each seat owns an area of the company, reads that area's data and is measured on it. You are the CEO: the one seat hlpr never fills. Rename any seat to fit your company, and turn on only the ones you need.
