| 6/16/26 | ![]() When You Wanted It To Work | A concern was there before the contract was signed.Rob Broadhead had worked with the contractor before. The relationship was good. The project looked viable. The timing was right. And when the questions started showing up, he chose to trust rather than push harder.A few months later, the missing work surfaced.The result wasn't just rework. It became hundreds of unbilled hours, opportunity cost across the business, delayed growth, and a project that pulled people into work they never should have been doing.This conversation is about the window between seeing something and naming it out loud — and what it costs when the relationship makes that window wider than it should be.Guest LinksWebsite:rb-sns.comLinkedIn:linkedin.com/in/robbroadheadIf you recognized something in this episode — joesteele.com.Follow Decision State on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.Chapters00:00 — We Wanted It To Work01:02 — Trusting The Wrong Signals05:12 — Assumptions Create Expensive Problems11:04 — How The Opportunity Appeared14:20 — The Porsche Problem16:20 — Why He Never Pushed Harder19:48 — The First Real Red Flag20:53 — When The Team Found It22:33 — Realizing The Cost24:15 — Opportunity Cost Spreads28:14 — Looking Back33:41 — The Silent Failures36:14 — Where To Find Rob | — | ||||||
