8 Decision Modes
Choose the right method for every topic
Rhizome offers nine scientifically grounded decision methods: from qualitative modes like consent, consensus and consultation to quantitative methods like majority vote, ranking or resistance polling.
The choice of mode depends on the stakes, urgency and complexity. Rhizome is methodically flexible, not dogmatic.

Organizational Decision Records: What Applies – and Why
With a single click, an important decision becomes an Organizational Decision Record (ODR) – a brief document for each decision that includes the context, the decision itself, and its consequences. It records what applies, why, who made the decision and how, and whom it affects—including any objections. ODRs are visible organization-wide. Even two years from now, if someone asks, “Why do we actually do it this way?” If a decision is revised, a new ODR replaces the old one. The old one remains accessible, and anyone who opens it can immediately see what applies today.
Hybrid work: two shared office days per week
Context
Office days were coordinated ad hoc. Hybrid meetings became the norm and onboarding suffered.
Decision
From April, everyone is in the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The other days are free to choose; teams may agree on exceptions.
Consequences
Desk sharing replaces fixed desks. People & Culture reviews the arrangement after six months.

Co-creation
Develop ideas together
In the collaborative live editor, your team develops ideas, solutions and concepts together – within your own team or cross-functionally. In real time during meetings, or asynchronously whenever there's a moment.
Different perspectives flow in, blind spots become visible – and the result is a proposal that is also supported by those who will later implement it.
Engineers don’t apply to companies they’ve never heard of. Let’s show how we actually work.
Three pillars? Engineering culture, team moments, product thinking.
+1. And onboarding stories – that’s where culture shows first.
LinkedIn employer branding – content pillars Georg
We show how we work instead of buying reach. Each pillar gets one article per quarter.
Content pillars
- Engineering culture: how we decide, ship and learn
- Team moments: offsites, retros, onboarding and first weeks Ela
- Product thinking: why we build what we build
Network View
Decisions are connected. Rhizome shows them that way.
Decisions are never isolated – they build on each other, influence one another, create precedents. The network view makes these connections visible.
All decisions are archived with full context – text, chat, references. The archive becomes your organisation's institutional memory.
Chat & Tasks
Chat and tasks right at the topic
Every topic gets its own chat and task list. You stay focused on the topic without detours – and everything is documented directly. Nothing scrolls away or gets lost.
For teams that use few other tools, this is often enough for collaboration. For everyone else, Rhizome offers seamless integrations.
Let’s test LinkedIn articles before we pay for reach. Less risk, more to learn.
Checked the idea against our records: ODR 9 · Social media guidelines requires a review by Communications before anything goes live. I added that as a task: Review by Communications
Good catch – I’ll take the review and loop in Communications this week.

Integrations
Fits into your tool landscape
Many teams already use other communication and productivity tools. Rhizome is not a silo. From the start, we built APIs and interfaces into our thinking.
Whether you use Rhizome as a central platform or as one more tool – both approaches are equally valid. Your data stays yours, always exportable.
