Indeed, often a mix of both types of processes is needed within a company.

For those who are not familiar with it, check out Jeff Bezos’ 1997 Letter to Shareholders on irreversible (Type 1) vs. reversible (Type 2) decision making.

Can you link to the letter you are referring to? The top few results of my search had no mention of reversible decision making.
