Decision delegation criteria: explicit structural filters
Decision delegation criteria: explicit structural filters that sort decisions into three categories: those you must make yourself, those you should delegate to others, and those that should be automated or defaulted
Why This Is a Definition
This definition names the term 'decision delegation criteria,' identifies its genus as 'explicit structural filters,' and specifies its differentia as 'that sort decisions into three categories.' It precisely captures the concept as presented in the lesson and distinguishes it from other decision-making frameworks by emphasizing the structural, systematic nature of the criteria.
