INTERFACES
THE DOMAINS ARE DIFFERENT. THE GOVERNANCE LOGIC MUST CONNECT THEM.
PRODUCT↔RETAIL↔COMMERCIAL↔ORGANISATION↺
DECISION INTERFACES
THE HARD DECISIONS LIVE BETWEEN DOMAINS.
Product↔CommercialRange breadth, margin, demand and channel commitments must resolve as one decision.
Retail↔BrandNetwork growth must protect experience, price authority and the role of each location.
Commercial↔OrganisationGrowth commitments must remain within the capability, cadence and accountability of the operating system.
Organisation↔ProductDecision ownership must support development speed without compromising product intent or quality.
GOVERNANCE SPINE
EACH DOMAIN REQUIRES THE SAME GOVERNANCE QUESTIONS.
01OwnerWho owns the decision?
02DecisionWhat can be decided here?
03ValidationWhat must be validated?
04EscalationWhen does authority move?
05EvidenceWhat supports the decision?
06CadenceWhen is it reviewed?
OPERATING COHERENCE IS CREATED AT THE INTERFACES.
Optimising each function independently does not produce a coherent system.
