To deal with these challenges and remain competitive in this ever changing environment a business requires a new toolset. At its core, it must be a problem solving framework which has the ability to even the playing field by reducing “context bias” as well as providing structure to the solutioning process as a whole.
This is where the Phoenix Checklist comes in, rumored to have been originally developed by the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency). The “Checklist” provides a structured means of applying a detailed set of challenge and response questions to help define the problem and than create a plan for a solution.

Once complete, the same focus is then turned to the questions which provide the solutioning for the “Plan Phase” of the Checklist.
