CORE DEFINITION

Clarify the five roles in decision-making: Recommend (recommender), Agree (approver with veto power), Perform (executor), Input (provider of input), and Decide (final decision-maker, only one).

SCAFFOLDING EFFECT

psychology

Reduce cognitive load

Clear division of responsibilities. Meetings often become chaotic because people cannot distinguish between I (who only provides suggestions) and A (who has veto power). Clarify who D is, and others perform their respective duties.

Anchor fast decisions

Decision-making chaos often stems from role misalignment: who proposes, who vetoes, and who decides are conflated. RAPID distinguishes five roles: Recommend (R, proposes solutions), Agree (A, has veto power), Perform (P), Input (I, provides information), and Decide (D, the sole decision-maker). Clarify that D is unique, and others perform their respective duties, so meetings are no longer chaotic.

MINIMUM ACTION

In progress 0/5

Practice this model in one real situation:

For each key decision, designate D (the sole decision-maker).
Designate R (who proposes the recommendation).
Designate A (who has veto power and needs to agree).
Designate I (those to consult) and P (executors).
Prepare before the meeting and make decisions during the meeting according to roles.
