Explain the trade-offs you consid

April 1, 2026  ·  1 min read

Explain the trade-offs you considered when you choose a path; people respect decisions when they understand the logic, even if they don’t fully agree. Make the options and the pros and cons visible in a short memo so people see the thinking and can learn. Doing that turns every decision into a teachable moment.
