A strategic decision commits the organization to a direction with material consequences. The process should make the question, alternatives and important assumptions clear before resources are committed.
Compare realistic options using customer value, capability, cost and risk. Invite evidence that challenges the preferred choice. Identify which uncertainties can be reduced through a smaller experiment or additional research.
Document the choice and the conditions that would justify reconsidering it. Connect the decision to an operating plan and review its outcomes. Avoid measuring success only by whether the original proposal was followed.
