A three-session team workshop series that ends with a working decision charter — who decides what, in which mode, with a disagreement protocol the team actually agreed to. The sessions chain: session one maps the team’s real decisions and stall stories (artifact: the decision inventory), session two drafts the charter from that inventory (artifact: the draft charter), and session three stress-tests the draft against the original stall stories and installs it with a 60-day review (artifact: charter v1, adopted). Each module is a session-in-a-box — visible blocks can be screen-shared with the room; hidden blocks are facilitator-only. Run in order, one to two weeks apart; the artifact chain is the spine, so never skip a session.

Who Decides? Building Your Team’s Decision Charter — A Three-Session Series

Session one of the Who Decides? team series: a 75-minute facilitated session that maps every decision the team made, slow-walked, or stalled last quarter, clusters them into types, and tells the stall stories out loud — producing the decision inventory that session two drafts the charter from. Visible blocks screen-share to the room; hidden blocks are facilitator-only. Run first; the artifact chain depends on it.

Session one: map every decision your team made, slow-walked, or stalled last quarter — and capture the inventory the charter will be built from.

Map the Decisions (Who Decides? Session 1 of 3)

Session two of the Who Decides? team series: a 75-minute facilitated session that drafts the decision charter directly from session one's inventory — four decision modes taught, owners assigned by role for every decision type (painful five first), and a disagreement protocol the team words itself. Visible blocks screen-share to the room; hidden blocks are facilitator-only, including guidance for the power-shift moment. Requires artifact one; run second.

Session two: draft the charter from your inventory — a mode and an owner for every decision type, and a disagreement protocol in the team’s own words.

Draft the Charter (Who Decides? Session 2 of 3)

Session three of the Who Decides? team series: a 60-minute facilitated session that replays session one's stall stories under the draft charter, amends what bends, and installs charter v1 — where it lives, the say-the-type-out-loud habit, the first-failure protocol, and a 60-day review on the calendar. Visible blocks screen-share to the room; hidden blocks are facilitator-only. Requires both prior artifacts; run last.

Session three: replay your stall stories under the draft charter, fix what bends, and install v1 — with a 60-day review already on the calendar.
