Summary

What happens when good intentions collide with finite capacity? In many law practices, it shows up as overload, missed deadlines, and promises that quietly slip through the cracks. In this episode, I’m introducing the idea of a promise-keeping machine and explaining why making work visible is the first and most important step toward building one. You’ll learn how simple visual systems like Kanban help lawyers see their true commitments, protect capacity, and make more credible promises to clients, colleagues, and themselves.
