4-week determination of whether your governance can still say "no"—or if irreversibility is already imminent.
You did not install a goal achievement or measurement system.
You installed theater—OKRs artifacts that circulates, numbers that change, reviews that occur, without the specific preconditions that make measurement matter.
Not whether your system is "good" or "bad." Theater is theater.
The Audit determines:
Duration: 4 weeks
Outcome: Determination of whether the capacity to stop survives; if not, whether OKRs Audit is required
Constraint: Involvement Ends. No ongoing services. No optimization. No transformation.
Entry Condition: Theater recognized, mandating authority verified, readiness to hear that the system cannot be improved, only stopped or survived.
Twelve failure patterns from two hundred documented cases.
Each pattern: specific elimination observed, not theatrical methodology taught.
