THE OUTCOME-DRIVEN APPROACH TO MANAGEMENT
Attendees will learn how to solve real challenges by defining the necessary outcomes first and working backwards to tackle the obstacles and assumptions that normally prevent success. The approach uses Lean Startup style experiments to reduce the risks and Six Thinking Hats® techniques to maximise collaboration. It challenges old-fashioned approaches without involving Lego®!
