Bureaucracy Pruning Audit

What it is

Review meetings, layers, reports, approvals, policies and legacy commitments for current decision value. Ask what problem each mechanism still solves, what risk it controls and what would become worse if it disappeared.

How to use Accelerators

Use an Accelerator when the institutional problem is visible but hard to act on. The tool earns its place when it makes a consequential choice, resource tradeoff, succession risk, governance gap or obsolete mechanism easier to see and manage.
