Executive Summary
A synthesis of the main patterns, risks and learnings about decisions under responsibility and decision error.
Section 1 — Context
Most failures in critical decisions do not stem from intentional negligence, but from the absence of processes that neutralize blind spots. Even movements based on clear purposes and good intentions fail when the decision support structure is insufficient to validate fundamental premises.
Section 2 — Recurring patterns
Three patterns stand out in the origin of unsuccessful strategic choices: overconfidence in personal intuition, speed pressure that compromises analysis depth, and acceptance of fragile premises without a second layer of technical verification.
Section 3 — Evidence
Market indicators show that up to 70% of high-impact strategic decisions fail to achieve original objectives. The cost to correct mistaken budgetary or contractual premises can be up to three times greater than the investment needed for adequate preventive analysis.
Section 4 — Implications for the decision-maker
The consequences transcend immediate financial damage. Reputational impact, loss of authority before the market and erosion of internal team trust are assets difficult to recover, putting the manager's institutional responsibility at risk.
Section 5 — DomniQe's role
DomniQe acts as a decision support system, designed to organize scenarios, identify inconsistencies and provide a second layer of objective intelligence. Instead of replacing human judgment, the system strengthens it, ensuring that the final choice is based on mapped risks and validated premises.
