The Three Phases
Either change or become irrelevant!
If you are not disrupting yourself, you will be
playing by someone else's rules
“In times of change, learners inherit the earth, while the learned are beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists!”

Everything goes through a lifecycle

The Three Phases
We can’t do everything we want, Right?
Attitude of EMPATHY
1: Empathize – Develop an understanding of the users and the job that the product, service, or solution does for the users.
Design Thinking (Systems Thinking)
Analysis “Understand”
2: Define – Combine data, explore users’ problems, and investigate “what is”. (Form, Fit, and Function)
Attitude of EXPERIMENTATION
3: Ideate –
Generate wild and crazy ideas of “what if” and “what wows.”
Value Engineering
Problem Solving “Explore”
Attitude of EMBRACING AMBIGUITY
4: Prototype – Build prototypes, simulations, trial-anderror, and find “what works.”
5: Testing – Show, demo, work with and get feedback from the users.
Attitude of CREATIVE CONFIDENCE
6: Implement – Put vision and solutions into action.
Implement “Materialize”

The Four Phases of Project Management (Traditional/Agile)
All the lifecycles for both Agile and Traditional PM can be divided into 4 phases.
1. Concept Phase
2. Planning Phase
3. Executing or Implementation Phase (Agile includes many cycles)
