Decision Making
Decision Rights Mapping
Purposedifferent
In complex management decisions, clarity is often missing about who recommends, who agrees, and who makes the decision. RAPID creates this assignment and stabilizes decisions across several levels.The method makes visible why two seemingly incompatible demands arise and which assumption must be tested to resolve the conflict.In organizations with many stakeholders, it often blurs who actually decides and who is merely consulted. It separates options, evaluation criteria, and open risks. The result is captured as a Decision Rights matrix and an agreement.
