Have a framework for decision making
- Identify what the criteria for success are. These are what you’ll measure your various options against.
- Map out all the various options that you can think of. If you struggle to find options and can only think of one, think again.
- Assess your options against your criteria. Write a clear explanation of how each option meets your criteria.
- Use 3 colors, red, green, and amber. Make sure that green means good across all criteria, otherwise it’s hard to read.
- Make a decision, just do it. Make a recommendation based on the colors you identified. Is there a clear decision with all greens?
