RESEARCH REVIEW · Workflow idea

Help the right person review a defined business question, permitted market research, and draft strategy canvases before anything consequential happens.

For an authorized purpose, prepare an initial strategy outline with evidence and assumptions visible for an owner to challenge. Market research may be incomplete or stale, and a polished canvas is not evidence that a strategy will work. Protect confidential plans, respect source rights, verify material claims and assumptions, distinguish hypotheses from facts, and require accountable leaders to approve decisions and any external communication. Use only necessary information, explain retention, respect consent and source rights, verify material details, and keep external or consequential actions under accountable human approval.
