Impact Mapping
Purposedifferent
When goals are formulated too generally, it brings measurability, direction, and timing into shape. It prevents intentions from staying without clear verification.Knowledge Mapping makes knowledge, gaps, and transfer paths visible across a field. It fits when expertise should not just exist but also be findable and transferable.When a goal needs to be connected to several possible paths, it shows chains of impact instead of feature lists. It connects business goal, behavior change, and measures.
