Where decisions actually sit
Every organization has two versions of itself. One is in the org chart, the approval rules and the reports that travel upward. The other is where decisions actually get made, by whom, with how much time, and on what basis. Most of the trouble lives in the gap between the two.
I work on that gap. I analyze how decisions really move through an organization, and I help leadership teams redesign the routes so that the person who signs is also the person who could judge. That has always mattered. Since AI started producing drafts, rankings and assessments in quantity, it matters more, because producing got cheap and checking did not.
Online, in English, for leadership teams anywhere. On-site work I offer in German-speaking countries only.
Three ways in
Read. My book Cheap to Make, Costly to Check follows one contract award through a mid-sized manufacturer and asks who owns the checking that AI leaves behind. The books →
Subscribe. Before It Counts is my newsletter: every two weeks, one case about where things actually get stuck. Before It Counts →
Look at your own organization. The Checking Load Assessment measures what your systems now produce and who is expected to check it, from data you already have. The work →
What people usually ask first
Do you only work on AI? No. AI is the current reason the question has become urgent. The question itself, who decides and whether they can, is older, and most of my work on it predates the current wave.
Why online only? Because the analysis runs on data and on conversations with the people who decide, and both work well by video. What does not work at a distance is facilitating a large workshop in a room. I offer that in German only.
Who do you work with? Owners and leadership teams of organizations between roughly forty and six hundred people, boards and advisory boards, and occasionally the people inside larger companies who have to make a new rule work.
