June 5: Document Your Decisions

Undocumented decisions fade into confusion.

Documentation transforms individual decisions into organizational learning. Clear records of what was decided, why, and how it will be implemented create accountability, enable consistent communication, and provide valuable context when questions arise. This discipline separates strategic leaders from reactive managers.

Take Action: After your next high-impact decision, spend 15 minutes creating a one-page summary including the problem statement, options considered, selection rationale, and implementation plan.
