"We already know our biggest bottleneck"

That's fantastic, it could save a lot of time.

• How well do you understand what's causing it?
• What are your biggest obstacles to addressing it?
• Have you convinced leadership?
• Have you convinced your team?
• Have you measured a baseline?
• Do your new hires know?
• Do other teams you depend on and that depend on you share your view?
• Have you made progress you can measure?

How clear are you on your focus? Have you prioritized:

• Aligning stakeholders?
• Going faster?
• Teambuilding?
• Justifying budget?
• Delivering more predictably?
• Breaking dependencies?
• Tackling SLAs?
• Shrinking WIP?
• Sharing visibility?
• Governance and accountability?
• Agile documentation?
• Data-driven decisions?
• Onboarding new staff or partners?
• Learning culture?

How would you rank those concerns?

If you can answer those questions with confidence, you may not have to map. 

Hell, you can take the day off, because you're ahead of everyone I've ever talked to ????

For everyone still reading, is it worthwhile to have dramatically more clarity and confidence than you have right now?
