Directed output-based management approach for underperforming engineers

Directed Chris Wolford to shift from activity-based to output-based management for engineers Kyle, Thomas, and Cole. Set ambitious goals (2x output), measure only results, give underperformers a short window (2 weeks) to meet targets, and replace them if they miss. Guaranteed headcount back for every open chair for the next 6 months.
