What a matrix is.
A matrix puts related items into a structured grid so you can compare them on the same dimensions. A two-by-two matrix is common: each axis represents a criterion, and the item’s position shows how it compares.
The right matrix depends on the decision. Use impact and effort to prioritize work, urgency and importance to plan time, or market growth and share to review a product portfolio.
