Golden Opportunities · Qualifying · Component

The authority

Who can decide, and up to what commitment — because a small opportunity requiring a board decision is a declined opportunity.

What it is

The size of the decision and the seniority required should be proportionate. Where every opportunity requires the same authority, the small ones are lost to process.

The limit should be agreed in advance and be genuinely usable, which means the person holding it can commit without consulting.
