Teams usually jump from names to confidence before they map readiness and gaps explicitly. Step 1: Pick three roles whose vacancy would hurt within 90 days. Step 2: For each role, count ready-now, near-ready, and future-bench candidates. Step 3: Highlight roles with single-name or no-name coverage.
