Ship with confidence
Almost done is not done. This checklist helps us turn “I think it’s ready” into “yes, ship it.” Use it to align expectations, catch loose ends, and avoid the quiet “almost done” feeling. Before you ship, share, or hand something over, take a moment to run through it.If every box is ticked, you’re good to go.
