Relaxing standards

Limiting standards
Reducing standards

Description

Relaxing standards involves intentionally lowering or modifying established criteria, regulations, or expectations to address specific challenges or constraints. This strategy aims to increase flexibility, enable progress where strict adherence may hinder solutions, and accommodate changing circumstances or resource limitations. By easing requirements, organizations or systems can expedite processes, reduce bottlenecks, and foster innovation, while still maintaining essential safeguards to prevent unacceptable risks or negative outcomes.
