A Decision Boundary defines the operational limits within which authority can act without escalation.
While the Strategic Decision Frame establishes high-level structural constraints, decision boundaries translate those constraints into executable limits at specific organizational layers.
Clear decision boundaries reduce friction, prevent authority overlap, and protect execution stability.
When boundaries are ambiguous, decisions spill across layers, escalation becomes reactive, and ownership diffuses.
Under pressure, unclear boundaries accelerate behavioral drift and degrade coordination.
Decision boundaries do not restrict intelligence; they protect coherence.
