What does it do?

Assumption Outcome Cards are the currency of your entire innovation process. They document ‘what you know’ and ‘how you know it’. They provide objective evidence based decision making to innovation and business design teams.

These are the most important reporting-out tools as they document new knowledge about what to do next such as pivoting, killing projects or continuing.

  • Report outcomes of your innovation testing phases
  • Creates validated learning evidence to present to management
  • Allows you to make decisions about what is working or not

When to use it

Use this vital tool once you have run an experiment on a critical leap-of-faith assumption (LOFA).

Once decided the team can move forward with confidence on to the next most critical assumption to test.
