Focusing on middle-management decisions can help you scale
A company's decisions don't always come from the top. In fact, most of the actual decision-making happens in the middle of the organization. Jason Warner's Diamond is a framework that can help bring more clarity to organizations by showing us what kind of decisions are being made at the different job levels.
The Diamond challenges the notion of "tops down" and "bottoms up" decision-making. It can be hard to accept a structure where decision-making isn't always coming from the top, but if there is an immense amount of trust, it can work well. When everyone understands the company's decisions and why they're being made, it creates alignment and clarity throughout the organization.
If you're struggling with decision-making in your organization, take a look at the Jason Warner Diamond. It just might help you bring more clarity to the process.
