High-agency professionals don’t just need better ideas—they need those ideas to turn into motion quickly. The silent killer of leverage isn’t bad strategy; it’s decision latency: the lag between when you know enough to act and when you actually pull the trigger. This episode introduces a practical lens for spotting and shrinking that gap across your work. You’ll learn a simple three-move model—Define, Decouple, Deploy. First, define what “enough information” looks like for different decision types so you stop over-researching. Second, decouple micro-commitments (emails, briefs, small experiments) from big, irreversible moves, so progress starts sooner. Third, deploy AI as a latency reducer—drafting options, surfacing trade-offs, and preparing next steps the moment a decision is made. We’ll walk through concrete examples across hiring, product, and internal ops. By the end, you’ll have a reusable way to notice decision drag, set sharper thresholds, and turn clarity into immediate motion. Clarity is leverage; this is how you compress the distance between the two.
