proceduralization
Turning into steps
Proceduralization is the process of converting knowledge or skills into fixed procedures—step-by-step routines that can be followed without much thought.
In cognitive psychology, it describes how learning becomes automatic: Through practice, the proceduralization of driving skills lets you navigate traffic while holding a conversation.
Organizations proceduralize tasks to ensure consistency and reduce dependence on individual judgment.
