Decision Objects
All patterns
Decision sandbox
Some decisions must be tested safely before they can propagate through the wider organisation.
Decision cache
Repeated decisions should be cached so the organisation does not resolve the same question repeatedly.
Decision factory
Organisations need a consistent mechanism for creating decision objects with the right authority and scope.
Decision termination as a structural property
Decisions must have a defined termination point or they circulate endlessly through the organisation.
Decision objects and the shape of organisational systems
Organisations behave like systems of interacting decision objects rather than hierarchies of job titles.
