Phase 4: Embed

Move from optional to required

Require the standard, not the keystrokes.

Before you require anything, the process should be documented, the quality loop running, and training tested on someone outside the pilot. Then give notice with a real date and hold to it.

Require the outcome, not the specific tool. Expect three kinds of holdouts and treat them differently: a skills gap (coach it), a real constraint (adjust or grant an exception), or a genuine objection (listen first, since they may have spotted something). Repeat your pledge at this moment, without being asked.
