Course 2 Lessons DESIGN DESIGN the path forward based on the learning and analysis that you’ve done. Your solution should be the best path forward and it should encompass scaling for growth and future changes caused by the unknown.DESIGN the: to be solution, will be solution, and should be solution Design, focusing on Outcome Attainment […]

Course 2 Lessons DEFINE Clearly Define all of the criteria for design and implementation, based on the actual needs for satisfying our objectives.We’ll need to include the definition for solving and not solving the unknown and part of our overall path to success. How we will Define the scope of delivered value Problem scope can […]

Course 2 Lessons Define and Design In this module we’ll be starting the process of creating the view of the future deliverable. At this point we have a clear view of the needs for value creation, now we will develop the definition for Dark Data utilization of both internal and external data as well as […]

Course 2 Lessons ASSESS Assess if there are any roadblocks in moving forward and which way you need to go. Is the path forward clear enough to start the design.Assess the need to revisit requirements and impacts consistently. Needs Analysis There are many things that we’ll need to assess before we move into the Design […]

Course 2 Lessons EVALUATE EVALUATE what you’ve understood and what you’ve learned and analyze the alignment with the impacts and results needed. You need to EVALUATE what you know, what others know, how accuracy of the assumptions and the challenge of the unknowns GAP Analysis Gap analysis is a tool that is used for the […]

Course 2 Lessons Understanding What/How to Target Our primary objective with Dark Data is delivering VALUE, which is done through Impact-Centered Design Earning the Right to Design So far we have made progress towards, “earning the right to design.” Below is what we have done in the previous two lessons. It is important to not […]

Course 2 Lessons LEARN LEARNING what is actually needed, and the actual impacts is critical to being able to begin the evaluation process. You need to LEARN everything about the project constraints and the people that you’re working with. We believe we know what we know, we believe we know what we don’t know, we […]

Course 2 Lessons UnderstandAn in-depth UNDERSTANDING of the expected outcomes, impacts and results at the onset of a deliverable.Asking questions is critical and identifying the reasons behind what’s being delivered. (Who, What, When, etc.) Our competitive advantage resides in our ability to rapidly learn the unknown and the ability to create value from it. How […]

Course 2 Lessons A strategic approach to positioning yourself and organization for handling Dark Data more successfully To position yourself for success with Dark Data, you must be both PRAGMATIC and IDEALISTIC. Benefits of ULEADD There are many project and process management frameworks that have been tested and have been in use through over many […]
