Canonical relationships
4 outcomes within this goal
Goal-specific framing appears here; reusable editorial guidance stays on the canonical outcome route.
Delegate low-value work
Delegate a well-defined task with a clear outcome, fair authority, training, resources, access limits, decision boundaries, support, review, credit, and safe escalation—not merely unwanted work.
Open outcomeAutomate repeatable tasks
Automate a stable, low-risk, reversible task only after documenting inputs, rules, exceptions, data authority, approvals, monitoring, fallback, incident response, and an accountable owner.
Open outcomeOutsource strategically
Outsource a bounded capability when the external fit, total cost, worker terms, customer impact, data/IP/security controls, continuity, review, and exit plan are stronger than keeping or eliminating the work.
