Ding ding ding!
This thread is cargo culting hard. This is just a tool for making decisions in stressful situations buy forcing a separation of planning and acting so you don't flop around frantically. It's not a tool for organizations or your startup. Maybe it works for that but its applicability to you're startup should be proven independently.
- Jtsummers 6y agoOODA is related to other feedback-loop ideas like PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act, Deming/Shewart Cycle) which works at both a tactical and strategic level (but at obviously different tempos, if that's not obvious I don't know what to say). It should be seen primarily in contrast to two other options: Haphazard ad hoc, primarily reactive, approaches; long term commitments to plans that turn out to produce the wrong thing (because they lacked feedback, aka classic Waterfall).
