High-quality, high-velocity decision-making - Deepstash

High-quality, high-velocity decision-making

Bezos offers a set of guidelines for how to make decisions at high-velocity:

  • Understand that decisions can be reversed: 
  • Bias towards action: Most decisions should be made with close to 70% of the information needed. Waiting for 90%+ information will slow you down.
  • “Disagree and commit”: When consensus is not possible but you have conviction in a particular direction, “disagree and commit”. 
  • Recognize when an agreement isn’t achievable: Sometimes different teams have different objectives and see the world differently. No discussion will change these views.
