The Transcript:
This is 60 Seconds of Writing in Public with Johanna Rothman for July 31, 2026, where I read an excerpt of just a minute of some writing in progress.
This is from the Continual Planning book.

But the opportunity cost does not cost real money. Opportunity Cost reflects the choices an organization makes.
But the Cost of Delay does represent several literal costs. Real money that the company could use in other ways.
