|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | When growth ideas surface quickly, the temptation to build immediately instead of learning is high. A Growth Experiment frames an assumption so target group, lever, and measurement are clear before the first deployment. | When a group needs a solid decision without outvoting individual factions, a Consensus Workshop creates a negotiable common ground. It makes agreement, reservations, and open tensions discussable at the same time. | When demand only needs to be roughly verified, it tests interest with minimal effort. It measures whether people would take a next step at all. |
