Purposedifferent
When research notes, feedback, or observations sit unconnected side by side, affinity diagramming sorts the raw material into solid themes. Many individual points turn into patterns that make decisions and opportunities clearer.It separates true priorities from noise so it becomes clear what should be done now, scheduled, delegated, or dropped.
