What is a decision: Irrevocable commitment of resources

What makes decisions difficult: Uncertainties

Decision Quality is a discipline/methodology intended to help folks make good decisions

Stanford SDG (Strategic Decision Group) has done some great work in the field

6 elements of decision quality: 1) appropriate frame(What am I deciding?) 2) creative, doable alternatives(What are my choices?) 3) meaningful reliable information(What do I know?) 4) clear values and trade-offs(What Consequences do I care about?) 5) logically correct reasoning(Am I thinking straight?) 6) commitment to action(What am I going to do?)

Decision Process: Have separate roles for “Decision Board” and “Project Team” even if informal, avoid dependence on “Advocacy” or “Approval”-based decisions, watch for biases at every step!
