When the Decision Matrix helps
Compare two choices against the factors that matter to you. It works best when you already know the basic facts and need a clear way to arrange them.
- Comparing two job or service options
- Making the most important trade-off visible
- Finding an assumption that needs more evidence
How to use it
Name both options and the factor that matters most.
Score each option using the same scale and current evidence.
Use the result as a prompt to investigate, not as an automatic verdict.
What the result cannot decide
One factor and two scores cannot represent every consequence. Add professional advice, written terms and more criteria when a decision has legal, health or financial impact.
