Decision Hierarchy

Decision Hierarchy is a tool to help individuals and teams focus on the most strategic decisions at hand in a project.  How often have you been in a meeting where the discussion spins off into some topic that is either already decided, or in reality something that can be decided later, or even just a hobby-horse of a single person in the room.  A decision hierarchy is a great way of separating these out and focussing only on the decisions that really merit the group’s time.  It is also a common step in structured opportunity framing of projects.

The app has a brainstorming mode with digital stickies on a whiteboard to quickly capture ideas and a clean tile display mode for the final hierarchy, with optional export to PDF incorporating a list of the strategic decisions.
