Method / Decision Thread

Keep the reason connected to the work.

A durable thread joins the question, evidence, human decision, work and what returns.

The through line

A decision is useful when its next reader can continue

  1. 01

    Basis

    Question, evidence and alternatives.

  2. 02

    Owner

    A person makes or confirms the choice.

  3. 03

    Return

    Evidence reaches the next review.

Where it meets your work

A thread keeps four things together.

The question

What decision is the work meant to support?

The basis

Which evidence, constraints and doubts matter?

What returns

What should change the decision next time?

A useful next step

Start with one decision people need to carry forward.

Use permitted examples from the real workflow.
