Purposedifferent
With high tempo and many parallel topics, the method makes status, deviations, and priorities visible at a glance. It reduces search effort and prevents what matters from getting lost in daily work.When an early product bet still has too many open points, it brings target group, problem, and assumptions into a single view.
