Brain region
Decision Cortex
Turning information into consistent executive and operational decisions.
Purpose
What this region does
Most organisations have more information than decision capacity. The Decision Cortex defines who decides what, on which evidence, with which thresholds, and what escalates to a human. It is the region that converts analysis into movement.
Questions this region helps answer
- Who decides this, and on what evidence?
- Which decisions should stay human, and which can be delegated to a system?
- How do we make the same quality of decision twice?
