Imperatives of a Decision

The four questions that must be answered for a decision to be complete:

• what/what not to do (P)

• how/how not to do it (A)

• when/when not to do it (E), and

• who should/who should not do it (I)

The sequence in which these four imperatives are defined is determined by a hidden fifth imperative, which is why/why not, also a component of (E).
