Short journal · Original editorial · Thinking in sequences
A decision keeps returning to the person who requested it.
A process is easier to discuss when its transitions are visible. Name what arrives, what changes, and what the next person needs. Test the sequence with one concrete example; a tidy diagram alone does not show that it works.
Clarify who can decide and what evidence they need.
You can stop after one small attempt. The purpose is to make a particular choice clearer, not to create a new obligation.
Try a question
What would you notice after trying this in one small, real situation?
