🏠 Executive Summary - Your Delivery at a Glance

🧭 Overview

The Executive Summary is the default landing page in KnowHOW - designed to give leaders a single, unified view of delivery performance across their organization.
It highlights overall health, key trends, and improvement areas across Speed, Quality, Value, and DORA, helping decision-makers focus on where attention is needed most.

💡 In one view, you can understand how your delivery ecosystem is performing and where to act.
