CB.13:3 - Forces
| Force | Working consequence |
| Common work and local work overlap. | Allocate the shared question without absorbing choices that can remain local. |
| Participation and decision effort cost time. | Choose consultation, representation or direct participation to fit the consequence and available effort. |
| Formal authority and practical control can diverge. | Recover both the valid mandate and the means to carry a decision out. |
| Affected people may be quiet or absent. | Give them a usable way to contribute before treating the visible discussion as sufficient. |
| Stable decisions need correction. | Keep ordinary work possible while providing bounded amendment, recall and challenge. |
| A new arrangement must begin somewhere. | Its adoption needs an actual source of agreement or authority; the proposer cannot confer it by description. |
