Decision Pathway
Decision-Research Matrix Research & Analysis Tools Slide Presentations Reading List: Decision-Making | Rough options are created working with the many opportunities found in step 1. Generation involves primarily creative and analytical thinking -- in teams, and individually -- using data and analysis already at hand. To generate exciting and challenging strategic or tactical options, we examine the combination of external market opportunities with the internal capacities and drivers. Here we build rough scenarios that involve assumptions about market penetration, adoption rates, repeat purchase rates, strategic implications, and gross margins. For the most promising at the rough stage, additional information is developed.
