I've recently become interested in Stripe after noticing that a bunch of their people (Patrick Collison, Claire Hughes Johnson, Zack Tratar, Jeff Weinstein, Patrick McKenzie @ ~46:55) talk about the practice of decision making and a specific framework: Barbara Minto's Pyramid Principal and SCQA framework for effective communication.
You can copy my template here: Greg's Simple SCQA
Here is a short primer 👇
SCQA Framework
S = Situation
What is the state of affairs? (fact-based, uncontroversial)
C = Complication
What is changing to make things harder?
Q = Questions
What is the question that naturally falls out of S & C?
Almost always the question is, “What should we do?”
A = Answers
What are you going to do to resolve that complication?
What arguments and evidence support that answer?
[make sure this resolves C 100%]
