Who it is for

Anyone commissioning or running a strategy engagement who wants an outcome rather than a deck.

What is in it

  • Five stages: diagnosis, ideation, business model design, market testing, initial offering
  • A gate per stage listing what has to exist, not what has to be discussed
  • How each stage usually goes wrong, and the tell
  • A worked example in which the diagnosis changes the engagement and a segment is dropped before money is spent on it

What it will not do

This rests on method rather than on a dataset, and the worked example is invented. It is how the work runs, not evidence that it works.
