Comprehensive Decision Chain

You need the ability to make timely and consistent assignment decisions, with clear line of sight to business priorities and strategies. You should also be able to make trade-off decisions whenever roadblocks or unexpected events threaten your plans. You also need conflict resolution mechanisms. And that process should be communicated and accessible to all.
