| | | GO BIG OR EVOLVE AS YOU GO |
| In 2008, Tata Motors faced a critical decision: Should they acquire Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), a luxury automotive brand, or not? It was a bold, high-risk move, though it wasn’t a true one-way door decision. Given Tata’s vast resources and long-term vision, the billion-dollar acquisition was a “hybrid” door decision at best—challenging but not completely irreversible. They could adapt and adjust. Meanwhile, launching new JLR models or entering the electric vehicle space was a two-way door decision, offering flexibility to pivot. |
| To identify risks, always ask yourself: Can this decision be undone? One-way doors require careful planning, while two-way doors allow for flexibility. The hybrid door offers a balance—risky, but with enough room for adjustment. Many decisions, whether in business or personal life, involve this blend, where boldness meets adaptability. |
| Now that we are well into the New Year, embrace moments of risk. Whether one-way, two-way, or hybrid, make bold choices and learn as you go, turning this year into one of growth and success. |
|
| | | One-way doors challenge us to think, two-way doors empower us to evolve, and hybrid doors show us the art of balancing ambition with adaptability. |
|  BEHIND THE THEORYThe concept of one-way and two-way door decisions was popularised by Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon. In his 2016 annual letter to shareholders, Bezos explained how Amazon makes decisions using this framework. It has since become widely used in business and decision-making contexts. |
