Can't sleep so doing some light reading. Came across a framework that my boss likes to use and was referenced by Sahil Bloom (good follow) in his weekly newsletter.
Pretty applicable for sales, big cross department projects.
Simply, it's used by military and big corps to continuously improve the business through reflection on each completed action while distilling the relevant insights to inform future actions.
4 questions:
- What did we intend to accomplish?
- What did we accomplish relative to our intention?
- Why did it happen this way?
- What will we do to adapt and refine for an improved outcome?
Typically conducted after major project or action to assess performance of a team or individual, making adjustments prior to next project/action.
Why didn't that sales call go as intended? What changes can I make? What language could I use next time to help move deal forward?
Simple framework, immediate feedback. Happy hunting savages.
