Principle: outcomes, not output

"Although it’s easier to manage to the launch of specific feature sets..."

Although "manage to" is technically viable phrasing, reading two tos so close together caused me to slow down and do a double take, which pulled me out of context cognitively for a minute.

Perhaps "easier managing to the launch" or just "easier to manage the launch"

Changing Culture

The items under "Changing Culture" aren't all of the same form. some verbs have 'ing' while a couple do not. It seems best to keep them without the 'ing' for clarity, but perhaps none of the items should have 'ing'... make them all calls to action by dropping 'ing' from the verbs?

2nd paragraph

"The world has changed: our organizations must change with them."

Should "them" be "it"?

Last paragraph

"Cross-team dependencies can keep progress to a crawl."

Should this be:
"Cross-team dependencies can slow progress to a crawl." or "Cross-team dependencies can keep progress at a crawl."?
