Barrier Buster Tracker: Themes → Sessions → Action

Ten Tiger Teams each own a barrier surfaced at the Great Gathering. This tracker maps the common root themes found across every session to the sessions where they showed up, and shows what work is underway to close each gap. Click a theme to filter, or click any row to see details and log a new update.

Cross-cutting flag (Jul 1): Lack of documentation — specs, SOPs, training material — is the single most common pain point across every Tiger Team. It's affecting new-hire ramp, the sales process, and product alignment. Ask to leadership: status on the technical writer/trainer hire, and reconsider prioritizing it this quarter.

The 7 common root themes

Independently identified across the Jun 10 – Jul 1 Tiger Team sessions.

No single source of truth · 8 sessions

Information scattered across Slack, Notion, Confluence, and tribal knowledge with no centralized, searchable home.

Ownership / role clarity gap · 3 sessions

"Who do I go to for this?" comes up repeatedly, especially on the R&D/engineering side.

Documentation debt · 4 sessions

Missing specs, SOPs, and training material is the root cause behind most other barriers — escalated directly to leadership.

Product readiness / MVP vs. MLP ambiguity · 3 sessions

Sales doesn't reliably know what's ready to sell; Product/Eng is actively closing the gap.

Desire for AI-assisted workflows · 3 sessions

Multiple teams independently proposed Claude/Granola/Gemini to auto-capture and surface notes and docs.

Standardizing Jira/Confluence as the backbone · 3 sessions

Templates that force structured data entry came up in at least three teams as a lightweight fix.

Low bandwidth / inconsistent attendance · 2 sessions

Some kickoffs struggled with attendance, suggesting a few teams may need re-energizing or consolidation.
