Direction, purpose, and priorities are connected so teams can decide more coherently.With a confusing workflow that has many handoffs, the method makes the actual process visible. It shows where work is passed on, delayed, or duplicated, so improvement targets the right spots.PESTLE Analysis makes political, economic, social, technological, legal, and environmental influences visible.
