Kira Troilo helps teams stop bracing and start breathing.

If “approved” keeps reopening, you don’t have a collaboration problem. You have an approval system that leaks truth.

I help teams stop late-stage vetoes, reopened approvals, and escalation weeks by installing Rehearsal Mode™ — a theatre-forged operating system for surfacing the real truth early, so decisions lock and work ships clean.

Perfect fit for: matrixed orgs (200–5,000+) with high-volume launches, campaigns, and content pipelines where “alignment” collapses at final review.

The pattern I fix: The Breath-Holding Loop

Polite “yes” in the meeting → real objections surface later
“Approved” reopens → revision loops + moving targets
End-stage panic → escalations + fire drills
Cost: cycle time expands, rework multiplies, stakeholders lose trust, teams burn out.

What changes after this talk

Teams leave with a shared system to:

lock decisions earlier (fewer late vetoes)
cut revision loops (fewer reopened approvals)
reduce escalation weeks (cleaner launches)
speed cycle time (more predictable throughput)
