Working in a rapidly growing startup like Woovi requires you to adapt quickly to the market and customer demands. This environment often demands rapid decision-making. Being able to make decisions quickly, learn from them, and course-correct is crucial for us.
To make things easier, we document every single type of decision we take, showing both the tradeoffs of different approaches, and what we have learned from them. This way we take away some of the cognitive load, by making a map of our past mistakes.
For example one of the documented decisions we have is When to create a new Component. With a pretty small document we managed to save a lot of time from future decisions.
But while this helps in a lot of cases, everyday at Woovi we're presented with new challenges. These unexpected situations might seem daunting as they often necessitate quick decisions in the face of uncertainty.
To be able to move quickly in these scenarios, you need to understand and accept that not every decision you make will be the best one at first. Getting things right, especially on the first try, is extremely hard, if not impossible.
It's better that you fail as fast as possible and learn from it, rather than avoiding decisions due to fear of failing. Rather than seeing it as a failure, see it as an opportunity to learn, see what went wrong, and why, share with your team your discoveries. This mindset of 'failing forward' not only accelerates personal growth but also drives the evolution of our team and the entire organization.
