#Shared Decision

A shared decision is the magical ritual by which a group gathers opinions to obscure individual responsibility and indefinitely postpone final judgment. It provides a perfect mechanism for participants to linger in discussion without anyone having to take the blame. By ostensibly respecting the majority while formally acknowledging the minority’s objections, it creates the illusion of unanimous satisfaction. In practice, the decision quietly rots in the swamp of so-called consensus. The only lasting legacy is meeting minutes that expire well before action ever starts.
