So excited that this is now available to the community! Working through the Open Decision Framework as a leader has taught me how to fully think through the impact of each decision. And the suggestions it gives to participants in the process (to make positive assumptions, assume competence, and assume you're missing information) have helped me to more effectively communicate with the people making large-scale decisions, especially when I disagree.
