Decision Authority Map™

Defines how decision authority actually operates under pressure.
CONCEPT TYPE
Primary Impact
Reveals who actually controls decisions under pressure.

Full Definition

The Decision Authority Map™ reveals how authority functions in real execution environments, not how it is formally defined. It identifies authority diffusion, overlapping decision rights, informal overrides, and escalation behaviors that bypass established structures. Under pressure, decision authority often shifts away from designed governance, creating hidden control dynamics that destabilize execution.
