How it works
Bring the evidence. Keep the reasoning open.
Three steps, repeated as often as the work needs. The consultant stays responsible for the context, the judgment and what is presented to the client.
01Bring the situation
Start with what is happening.
Describe what is happening, what needs to change and what stands in the way. Add the material you want the analysis to consider.
02Examine the diagnosis
Look at the reading and its support side by side.
Look at the proposed explanation alongside the evidence that supports, challenges or limits it.
Observation
Priorities change after work has started.
supports
Working interpretation
Unresolved intake decisions may generate interruptions and rework downstream.
leaves open
Open question
Does demand also exceed the team’s capacity?
New evidence starts a new analysis round. The earlier round is kept.
03Revisit the analysis
New evidence, a new round.
Bring new evidence or a different interpretation into a new analysis round, rather than treating the first result as the final word. Earlier rounds are kept.
Let’s talk about the work you do.
Tell us a little about your consulting work and where Phaseplane might fit. The first conversation is an introduction, before any case session or pilot.
