Every team needs a Decision-Making Work Agreement that clearly defines how decisions are made and who makes them. Creating a general agreement and putting it into your team’s Operating System’s Business Plan as a team Work Agreement makes good business sense.
If you do not currently have a Decision-Making team agreement or you have not updated it recently, I highly recommend you do that as soon as it is practical.
Incidentally, Decision-Making is #18 in the Team Performance Factor Assessment that you will use every 90 days to keep your team focused and on track. See Team Operating System.
