|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | When strategic direction needs to become measurable, it connects ambition with checkable results. It makes goals connectable to focus and review. | When size or effort can only be estimated roughly, Dot Estimation condenses the group's experience into a quick range. It turns individual contributions into a visible selection. The result is captured as an Effort Heatmap, Risk Signals, and Discussion Targets. | When assumptions still sit unordered in the room, it weighs uncertainty against leverage. It makes visible which hypotheses should be checked first. |
