Prioritization is a team skill; it is not just a leadership responsibility. It requires a human skill AI isn't replacing, yet—good judgment.


But when it comes to prioritization, many orgs still run the same pattern: teams escalate, managers pass it up, and leadership becomes the place where everything gets sorted.


Prioritization is not just ranking. It is judgment. If people below the top don't clearly understand how to classify work, assess impact, and make tradeoff recommendations, leadership ends up doing far more intake management than actual leadership.
