Meet Your Brain’s Imaginary Quality Assurance Manager:
Madeline Montgomery
Catchphrase: “Because someone has to remember what we did last time.”
Madeline is the team’s reflective thinker. She tracks progress, notices patterns, and helps the team avoid repeating mistakes. She excels at keeping everyone accountable and ensuring lessons from past projects guide current decisions.
Madeline’s personal life is busy, too, and sometimes her own mental load makes it hard to notice everything, but she always comes back with insights that save the day. When Madeline is focused, the office learns from its mistakes; when she’s off her game, small errors can quietly creep back into workflow.
Madeline’s skills represent the executive function skills of metacognition and self-monitoring. Sign up for our newsletter to learn more about how you can strengthen these and other executive function skills. Learn how to honor your brain and work with it, never against it.
