Situational awareness dashboard guide: what to scan and what to verify

A situational awareness dashboard is most useful when it helps you ask better follow-up questions quickly: What changed? Where is it happening? Could it affect my plan today? What official source should I verify next?

Without a workflow, dashboards can become either overwhelming or too easy to ignore. A simple scan pattern keeps attention on changes that may matter.
