Quadruple-Loop Product Management

a multi-layer-iterative Product Management process of Thinking in Bets

Sept'2022 version:

  • the Jan'2022 loops aren't right, because not everything business-level is slower than everything product-level. (Also rotated the OODA labels.).

  • then 2 layers for the Opportunity Solution Tree
  • every Action is a Bet (Thinking in Bets)
    • some times there are little bets (tests) you can make to generate/validate data/hypothesis before "building"
  • inner loops repeat more often than outer loops

  • each loop has it's own kanban board (when it's active)?

Jan'2022 version: framing as 4 nested OODA loops:
