Process
The five moves we practice in every program
Whether you join the intensive or a single workshop, the room follows the same sequence. CTA: pick a program and tell us which move you need most.
01
Frame the question
We agree what decision the analysis must support before diagrams appear. Ambiguous asks get rewritten into scope, constraints, and acceptance cues.
02
Collect signals
Observation first: interviews, logs, release notes, support themes. Each signal is labeled as fact, inference, or open question.
03
Map constraints
What the system cannot do cheaply, safely, or soon becomes a register with evidence—not a complaint list.
04
Compare options
Criteria are defined before scores. Rejected paths stay visible so future analysts do not reinvent them.
05
Brief the ask
A short finding memo: evidence, risk, recommendation, and the decision you need. Practice happens in the room, not as homework theater.
