Cluster Touchpoint
How cluster leads use StartConsole to coordinate across squads and surface cross-squad issues.
The Cluster Touchpoint operates at a level above the individual squad. It brings together the leads of all squads within a cluster to align on shared initiatives, surface cross-squad dependencies, and resolve capacity conflicts before they escalate. Where a squad meeting focuses on one team's deliverables, the Cluster Touchpoint focuses on what spans multiple squads.
Before the Meeting
Squad leads should have updated their deliverable statuses before the Cluster Touchpoint begins. The cluster lead should open StartConsole and filter the Initiatives view to show all initiatives touching this cluster.
