You’re about to start a project in unfamiliar territory. What is your first instinct?
Neither is wrong. Both reveal how you navigate change. Data-gatherers reduce risk through analysis; experimenters reduce risk through action. The strongest teams have both — and know when to switch.

Test results come back and they contradict your expectations. What is your first move?
Both are valid scientific instincts. But most people default to questioning the data — because it's less threatening. The breakthrough usually comes from questioning your assumptions. That takes courage.

You’re kicking off an initiative with a blank slate. What would you rather do?
Planners avoid wasted effort. Prototypers discover what no plan could predict. In complex, uncertain environments, quick prototypes teach you more than detailed plans — because the world talks back.

Review recent feedback, data, or results. Find one thing that surprised you — and instead of explaining it away, spend 15 minutes exploring why it happened.
Before your next conversation, write down the one question you most want answered. Rewrite it twice — making it more specific each time. Ask the third version.
Take the newest idea on your plate. Write down the one thing that must be true for it to work. Now design the smallest, fastest way to check whether it’s actually true.
Share an early-stage idea and explicitly invite criticism. Say: “I’d love to hear what’s weak about this.” Notice how much easier it is to improve an idea when you’re not defending it.
Pick one assumption you’re making about your users, customers, or audience. Write down what data would prove it wrong. Now figure out how to get that data this week.
Reframe your best idea as a hypothesis: “We believe that [X] will result in [Y] for [Z].” Does it still feel as certain when you write it that way?
Before you test an idea, write down what result would make you change course. When the results come in, honour that commitment — even if it’s uncomfortable.
