“Bias for action” is a nice catch phrase and not bad to get people out of paralysis.
The other successful thing to add onto it, is to tell people what you’re going to do (ex, a high level 3 step plan, not more than 5), then do it. If there are objections, ask [what can be done] to mitigate the issue instead of arguing the points.
Don’t “bias for action” and do something w/o setting expectations first.

Many decisions and actions are reversible and do not need extensive study. We value calculated risk taking.
