How to Stop Reopening the Same Decisions

If you keep reopening decisions, you are not making decisions. You are debating. Debate is useful early. It becomes expensive when it replaces commitment. Teams reopen decisions for predictable reasons. The decision was never recorded. The criteria were vague. New stakeholders appeared. Or the decision did not connect to a plan. The fix is to record decisions with context. What was decided, why, and what it affects. Then link the decision to the work it unlocks.If your decisions keep looping, read Decision Frameworks Prevent Rework.
