About Bess Obarotimi
Bess Obarotimi advises organisations and senior leaders on decision authority, governance execution and AI-influenced decisions. Her work examines why important decisions stall and where practical authority becomes unclear.
Through the Decision Environment Method, advisory work and speaking, she helps leaders clarify who can challenge, escalate, decide and accept responsibility when the stakes are high.
START WITH ONE IMPORTANT DECISION
You do not need to redesign your entire governance structure to begin.
1. IDENTIFY THE DECISION
Choose one consequential decision affected by delay, uncertainty or AI influence.
2. MAP THE ENVIRONMENT
Map who contributes evidence, challenges, escalates and makes the final judgement.
3. CLARIFY THE AUTHORITY
Identify what is unclear and what must change for responsibility to be exercised.
Enquire About Speaking or Advisory
Bess accepts a limited number of advisory engagements, organisational reviews and speaking invitations each quarter. Please share a few details about the decision, event or organisational challenge you would like to discuss.
