Jason Lewis Retention Review - Requested Written Impact Case
Situation
Paused final decision on Jason Lewis role and requested Steve write a formal case detailing the operational impact of Jason departure - specifically on ISO 27001/42001 certifications and CIQ Federal work.
Reasoning
Prior termination decision was already made, but Steve is advocating for reconsideration given recent improvement. Before overturning a decision, need documented evidence of operational cost - what specifically breaks if Jason leaves. This forces Steve to quantify impact rather than argue abstractly, and provides data for the final call. Willing to revisit decisions when new evidence emerges, but the bar is high.
Additional Context
Feedback on Jason: strong risk-profiler but poor thought partner, takes unbending stance prioritizing security over business trade-offs. Steve noted recent improvement after direct feedback. Jason involved in ISO certifications, CIQ Federal, and Texas Workforce Commission project.
