When your data is incomplete and time is ticking, decisions can’t wait; but they can be made smarter. In this episode, we move from intuition to infrastructure and explore how high-impact leaders and organisations build decision systems to act with clarity. From Gary Klein’s pre-mortems to decision journals and Amazon’s “two-way door” principle, this episode dives into rituals that build strategic momentum even when the data doesn’t have your back.
