Organizational Decision Systems glossary
The terms we use, in plain words. Each has its own link, so you can point someone straight to it.
Organizational decision system
An organizational decision system is the set of decision rights, routines, information flows and feedback loops through which an organization makes, carries out and corrects its decisions. It settles who may decide, what they know, how groups reach a choice and how quickly errors surface. Klose Coaching helps leaders measure and redesign that system. More on what an organizational decision system is.
Who may decide
Decision rights and escalation paths, how strategy turns into real commitments, how incentives pull on choices, and the meetings and hand-offs a decision has to pass through.
How the organization thinks it through
The skill of the people deciding, the way groups combine what each person knows, where expertise can be trusted, and where technology and AI take part in the reasoning.
How it notices it was wrong
How warning signs travel to someone who can act, how fast mistakes are caught and reversed, and whether lessons turn into changed routines.
How decisions move
Running through all three: how long decisions wait, where they queue, and how often they come back for rework.
Decision intelligence
Decision intelligence usually means using data, analytics and AI models to support particular decisions.
Decision science
Decision science studies how to make good choices under uncertainty.
Organizational decision support system
"Organizational decision support system" is an older information-systems term for software that helps an organization make decisions.
