AI+ Decision Making

Cut Through Complexity with AI-Assisted Thinking

Decisions that hold up. Reasoning you can defend.

You make decisions every day, but your process is probably inconsistent — thorough when you have time, rushed when you don't. This book gives you FRAME, a five-stage AI-assisted decision protocol that works for operational calls and board-level choices alike. You'll use AI to sharpen how you frame decisions, generate options you haven't considered, evaluate trade-offs systematically, and communicate reasoning clearly — across 32 extractable prompt templates. Built by an AI engineering firm that makes consequential decisions for a living.
