The decision
What exactly are you deciding?
DEV Decision Brief
A free way to think more clearly before you make the call.
The DEV Decision Brief gives you a simple structure for working through an important business decision. Use it to separate what you know from what you assume, compare the options and identify what needs answering next.

The framework
Six useful questions before you make the call.
Write the answers down. Keep them specific. If you cannot answer one, that may be the next piece of work.
The evidence
What do you actually know?
The assumptions
What are you treating as true without enough evidence?
The options
What are the realistic routes?
The consequences
What changes if you choose each one?
The next move
What deserves to happen next?

When the framework is not enough
A good question still needs a decision.
If you are still circling after using the Brief, bring the decision to a 15-minute Fit Call. We can see whether the Business Decision Intensive is useful.
