Q of the Week: How can a decision matrix expedite my team's decision-making process?

A decision matrix can make the decision-making process more straightforward and standardized. The format of these templates can outline the acceptance criteria and the weight for each of the criteria. I’ve used Confluence to expedite the decision-making process. This tool provides decision matrix templates that make option evaluation and criteria weighting easier. Weighing the criteria is essential because some values may be worth more than others, and that difference should be accounted for. Options can then be laid out and evaluated using the criteria, leading to a simple decision.
