The four heights

The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

Execute — do the immediate task

A salesperson locked out at 8:20am — reset Cameron Li's access and password and get him back in by 9:00am. Verify multi-factor is re-enrolled, confirm he can access his open Opportunities and Dashboards, and notify me and his manager, Rachel Stone, when done.

Improve — make it easier to accept

Before I call support for another password reset, make the self-service flow simpler for reps — surface where they commonly fail MFA, show which users get locked out most often, highlight which org policies cause forced resets, and propose small changes so a manager can approve a reduced-lockout configuration.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment

Become — change the pattern

We do emergency password resets every week.

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
