Improving Decision Quality for Better Business Outcomes

I explore how businesses can leverage data, analytics, and digital systems to make tradeoffs explicit, strengthen decision-making at scale, reduce risk, and make outcomes more predictable — helping leaders focus on the decisions that matter most.

The problem

Every business makes ongoing resource allocation decisions — automation, pricing, technology, new capabilities — based on incomplete information and outcomes that can't be fully validated in advance. When decisions miss targets, the cost isn't just financial; it's lost opportunity, momentum, and stakeholder confidence.

The questions that matter

Better decisions connect directly to outcomes and answer:

  • Is the ROI realistic or optimistic?
  • Which assumptions could break?
  • How does this affect margin, not just revenue?
  • What's the downside if we're wrong?
  • Is this the best use of capital right now?
