Planning

Maintain a startup decision log

Record decisions, supporting reasoning and review dates from approved notes so future work can trace why a choice was made.

Start with the right context.

A decision log preserves reasoning that is easy to lose in conversation. Record what was chosen and why, including assumptions that might change. Keep unresolved suggestions separate from confirmed decisions.

Prepare a result you can use.

Have your chief produce entries with a date, owner, decision, alternatives and supporting sources. Add a review trigger such as new customer evidence or a changed budget. Save the log as a shared document during computer-enabled work.

Review before the next step.

Check that the owner actually approved the decision. Do not rewrite earlier reasoning to match later outcomes; add a new entry when a choice changes. The log is a record, not an automatic enforcement system.

What to bring to your chief

  • Confirmed decisions and source notes
  • Decision owner and date
  • Rationale, alternatives and review conditions
