The model
List recurring forums, the decisions they can make and the preparation each requires. The envelope compares the resulting workload with the people who actually prepare it. Membership overlap matters: five committees staffed by the same six people are one overloaded delivery team with five names.

In practice
A program adds a weekly risk council to address late decisions. Its members already attend the delivery board and prepare the same evidence twice. Consolidating the decision into one forum creates more capacity than renaming the council as a huddle.
