Does this sound familiar?

Innovationsideen bleiben auf der Konzeptebene stecken.
Sie wissen nicht, ob Ihre Annahmen bei Skalierung tragen.
Entscheidungen über neue Geschäftsmodelle basieren auf Bauchgefühl statt Evidenz.

What it's about

Generate decision-ready options where opinion currently dominates. Hypothesis-based testing of critical assumptions before scaling — with real customer contact instead of internal assumptions.

Who it's for

Teams that do not know whether their assumptions hold at scale
Leaders who need evidence instead of opinions as a decision basis
Organizations facing innovation decisions under high uncertainty

Process

Identify critical assumptions — what must be true?
Design minimal, realistic experiments
Conduct customer and market tests — validation through real contact
Synthesize insights and create decision documentation

Outcome

Evidence package per hypothesis — validated or falsified
Strategic recommendation: Build, Stop, or Pivot
6–12-month roadmap with milestones
Operating rhythm for the next phase

Format

Duration 3–6 Weeks

Participants 4–8 people (core team)

Setting Remote or hybrid

Cadence Weekly sessions, market and customer contact in between

Methods & Concepts

Hypothesengetriebenes Arbeiten

Annahmen werden als testbare Hypothesen formuliert: „Wir glauben, dass [X], weil [Y]. Wir testen das, indem [Z]." Macht Unsicherheit handhabbar.

Kritische Annahmen

Die Annahmen, deren Widerlegung das gesamte Vorhaben in Frage stellt. Diese zuerst testen — nicht die einfachsten, sondern die riskantesten.

Build / Stop / Pivot

Drei mögliche Ergebnisse jedes Experiments: Weitermachen, Stoppen oder Richtung ändern. Kein Pivot ist Scheitern — es ist validiertes Lernen.

Validiertes Lernen

Wissen, das durch echte Daten aus echten Experimenten entsteht — nicht durch Meinungen, Marktforschung oder Bauchgefühl.

The next step is a conversation.
