Every data flow tells a story.

Every data flow tells a story. Not about systems. About people.

Who trusts whom. Who still talks. Where ownership stops and waiting starts.

You don’t need a meeting to see it. Just look at the flow. Where things pile up, people disagree. Where nothing moves, no one owns it.

Architecture is rarely the root cause. It is a mirror.

Fixing pipelines without fixing communication is like painting over cracks in concrete. The structure still moves.

If you want to understand your organization, stop reading org charts. Read your data flows.
