Decision Rights
Authority Boundaries
Governance Discipline
Institutional Direction

Authority is exercised within defined boundaries. Decision rights, approval thresholds and escalation parameters establish where authority begins, where it ends and when higher authority is required.

Escalation is governed by authority, materiality and consequence. Decisions exceeding established boundaries are elevated to the appropriate governance level rather than executed beyond mandate.
