Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• People drop new "can you reprioritize this" requests on my team all week long and whoever asks loudest or latest wins
• Every time an urgent little task lands on my team there’s this awkward pause where nobody’s sure whose job it is, so it either drops or whoever’s least busy gets stuck with it again
• My weeks get hijacked by whatever lands in my inbox first thing Monday, and by Friday I’ve just been reacting the whole time
• The long-term work my team needs
• Every week starts with me reacting to whatever hits the inbox first, so by Friday I’ve been slammed nonstop yet the few things that actually mattered never got touched
