What is an outcome review?
TL;DR
An outcome review compares what happened with the assumptions and signals recorded when a decision was made.
Result
Comparison
Lesson
An outcome review closes the loop between intention and reality. It asks what happened, which assumptions held, and what the decision-maker should carry into the next call.
Outcome is not the same as decision quality
Luck, timing, and outside events influence results. Review both the reasoning process and the result before judging the choice.
Keep the review focused
Return to the original signals and assumptions. Record the most important surprise and the lesson it creates.
