From Student to Consultant
03 / 28Three operating disciplines for ambiguous work
Week 1 set the expectation that you operate as consultants. Week 2 gives you the disciplines to manage a project no one has fully defined yet.
01
Direction
Where are we going?
A defined outcome the sponsor recognizes as valuable.
02
Execution
Where should our time go?
Deliberate allocation of scarce team capacity.
03
Inquiry
What do we need to understand?
Questions that improve the problem you are solving.
