The Stop Light Report is a way to communicate in writing (post on communication boards) how the ideas/concerns harvested in rounding are dealt with. Green Light items are things that have been addressed and are complete. Yellow Light items are things in progress. Red Light items are those issues or ideas that cannot be done with the reason why.
