CLARIFY

  • C – Components: What are the key variables and how do they interact?

  • L – Leverage: Which variable or combination of variables that we can control are most likely to deliver the desired impact?

  • A – Assess Resources: How much time and resources do we have, and are they proportionate to our needs?

  • R – Results Expected: What outcomes are we expecting – directly and indirectly?

  • I – If Things Go Wrong: What’s our backup plan if things go off-track?

  • F – Facilitating: Who is involved, and how will we communicate?

  • Y – Yields: How will we measure progress and monitor outcomes?

A BUILDABLE WORKFLOW

PRISM is a 'skeleton' framework that effectively translates the scientific method for broader application in (non-scientific) complex problem solving and strategy design scenarios.

 

Simple and pointed enough to stand alone for high-level applications while also agile to grow and support bigger challenges for more experienced or specialized practitioners. Get started with foundational understanding and then customize and refine with more advanced applications that layer supplementary processes & methodologies, including:

  • Root cause analysis

  • SWOT analysis

  • Stakeholder analysis & RACI matrices

  • Statistical forecasting

  • Systems thinking

  • Project management, including PMI frameworks

  • Change management, including PROSCI methodologies

  • ISO standards

  • Failure Modes & Effect Analysis (FEMA)
