LEADERSHIP DECISION-FLOW DESIGN 

Command Cadence and Decision Rights Architecture 

What Is Leadership Decision-Flow Design? 

Leadership Decision-Flow Design is the architecture and design of: 

  • decision rights 

  • escalation rules 

  • cadence and operating rhythm 
    so leadership decisions align with execution timing and capacity. 

It is used when leadership decisions exist but do not translate into controlled execution. 

Why This Is Needed 

This service is used when: 

  • decision paralysis or decision churn exists 

  • conflicting directives destabilize execution 

  • escalations do not resolve quickly enough 

  • managers override each other informally 

  • initiatives stall because authority is unclear 

  • execution timing does not match decision timing 

How TJEG Designs Decision Flow 

  1. Decision Topology Definition 
    Define the recurring decisions that govern stability (not one-off strategic debates). 

  2. Decision Rights Architecture 
    Define who decides what, at what threshold, and with what inputs. 

  3. Escalation Design 
    Define escalation triggers and time limits so stalls do not become systemic damage. 

  4. Cadence Design 
    Install operating rhythm: daily/weekly decision windows, thresholds, and enforcement points. 

  5. Integration with Execution Controls 
    Tie decision flow to SOP architecture, interface controls, and variance containment triggers. 

What This Delivers 

  • Decision Rights Matrix (operational) 

  • Escalation Rules + time limits 

  • Operating cadence blueprint (rhythm, triggers, agenda structure) 

  • Override control logic (prevent directive collision) 

  • Implementation-ready rollout plan (client-executed) 

Engagement Characteristics 

  • Executive-facing and enforceability-focused 

  • Often paired with Decision Latency Mapping 

  • Deployable standalone or embedded into Turnaround/Fractional command 

Cost & Commercial Structure 

Fixed-scope architecture engagement. 
Typical range: $25,000 – $85,000 (scope-dependent). 
No contingent fees. No success fees. 

Compliance Boundary 

Operational decision architecture only. 
No legal advice. No board governance roles. No fiduciary/officer-of-record functions. No financial/valuation analysis. 
No outcome guarantees.
