The Decision-Maker's Playbook Part 2: The Decision Framework

The Decision-Maker's Playbook Part 2: The Decision Framework

In Part 2 of the Decision-Maker’s Playbook, Hector and Alan explain why leaders struggle when they run every decision through the same process, either overthinking small calls or underthinking major ones.

They introduce a two-axis framework—stakes (low vs. high consequence) and reversibility (reversible vs. irreversible)—that creates four decision types with distinct protocols: Type 1 (low stakes, reversible) “fast call”; Type 2 (high stakes, reversible) “consult and decide” with 1–3 targeted inputs and a firm deadline; Type 3 (low stakes, irreversible) “pilot/experiment” with defined success and review; and Type 4 (high stakes, irreversible) slow, rigorous analysis reserved for rare, critical choices.

A case study shows a manufacturing firm cutting decision cycles from 18 to 4 days by classifying decisions first, improving trust and empowerment, and the episode ends with an assignment to post the framework visibly and use it before team decisions.
