| Criterion |  Engineering Golden Path |  Operations Failure Mode and Effects Analysis |  Operations Eat the Frog |
|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | When teams need a reliable default path for frequent use, sprawl quickly emerges without any guiding logic. Golden Path bundles the preferred path so good practice becomes easy and deviation becomes deliberate. | For a process, product, or service with noticeable failure risks, the method assesses possible failure modes in advance. It directs attention to combinations of occurrence, effect, and detectability. | The method protects energy and attention for the task that creates the largest progress and is often postponed. |
