Scoring

One number, three inputs, reasoning on the record.

A decision earns attention when the upside is real, the downside is understood and the work is proportional. Move the inputs and watch the score and the recommended move change.

Worth doing on a normal schedule. Assign it, then keep the record open until the outcome is checked.

Weights are fixed and published so a score can be argued with. Opportunity 45 percent, risk 30 percent, effort 25 percent.

Why a score and not an opinion

It can be reviewed

A number with named inputs can be checked later against what actually happened. A hallway opinion cannot.

It ranks honestly

Two decisions competing for the same crew are compared on the same three inputs, not on who asked louder.

It learns

When the outcome comes in, the gap between score and result is kept. That gap trains the next reading.
