Strategic execution for high-potential professionals.
More Rigor. Faster Output. Happier Teams. Stronger Careers.
You have more data, tooling, and AI than you know what to do with. But when faced with ambiguous strategic questions, it’s still easy to solve the wrong problem, get trapped in analysis paralysis, run ineffective meetings, miss critical sanity checks, and more that ends up limiting your potential and wasting time.
All because you did not have a model for what excellent structured problem solving looks like. Until now.
Amplified Output Training Program
Objective
Solve the right problem by defining the context (e.g., audience, action) and the problem (e.g., terms, time periods).
Nine steps to structured problem solving.
01
Key Questions
Break down the problem into helpful pieces that are MECE, 80/20, and specific enough to begin execution.
02
Data Selection
Gather evidence by creatively triangulating across data types (e.g., historical, benchmarks) and ensuring strong logic.
03
Hypothesis
State the emerging answer, even with incomplete data including strong storyline mechanics, sanity checks, and notes for further investigation.
04
Outline
Build the wireframe of final outputs including key frameworks, million-dollar materials, and a broader outline.
05
Executive Summary
Write the one-page executive answer with strong storyline mechanics and packaging to get the the main messages across in 30 seconds or less.
06
Final Output
Get complexity and errors out of the way of your message including the basics (e.g., headline, units, labels), design standards (e.g., visual guides, consistent themes), and messaging standards (e.g., parallel structure).
07
Delivery
Tailor your communication for your audience including a targeted pre-read, controlled delivery, and inviting specific input.
08
Feedback Loop
Reduce wasted effort by engaging your manager (and team) effectively including setting expectations, bringing solutions (not problems), and owning the answer.
09
The Difference
Personalized training to maximize learning
No “self-guided” lessons
No click-through video trainings
No “peer-feedback”
Tactical checklists for each stage of problem solving
Note: Each one of the 9 steps is delivered around a specific checklist (examples below.)
