Post Text (Key Excerpt)
I’m a few days into my first project coordinator role and feel like I’m drowning a bit.
Everything happens in Slack threads, quick calls, side discussions, and by the time I try to make sense of it, I’m already behind.
People reference past decisions like everyone remembers them clearly, but for me it’s just a blur of conversations.Why It Matches Ryva ICP
This is explicit decision-loss in Slack inside a product/engineering workflow. The pain is operational, frequent, and tied to context recovery rather than lack of effort.
Underlying Problem
Team decisions are made in chat but never converted into a durable, shared execution record.

This is a classic team-memory failure, not a personal onboarding issue. If decisions stay in Slack threads, new people and even current teammates end up rebuilding context every week.Suggested DM Idea (Copy)
Your post described exactly what many small product/dev teams hit: decisions are clear in the moment and gone a week later. If useful, I can share a lightweight decision-log format that captures outcome + owner + why in under 60 seconds.Snapshot
