It’s Thursday evening, and you’re staring at a blank PowerPoint slide, yet you need to deliver a presentation by Monday that will help a steering committee make a decision worth millions. This book reveals the techniques that major consulting firms have used for decades to convince executive boards—the pyramid principle, action titles, storyline architecture—and makes them accessible to anyone who creates decision-making documents: executives, in-house consultants, and project managers. Written based on extensive hands-on experience at the F1 level, it includes a comprehensive reference deck, five review checklists, and an honest exploration of what AI is truly changing in this context.

«L'AI mi ha confermato X» usato come prova di X. Output che suonano brillanti ma non reggono a una rilettura severa. Una "AI policy" di tre pagine che nessuno legge.

Non prompt engineering: il metodo per non farsi rispecchiare.

Many businesses say that lean failed to meet their long-term objectives and that the improvements it brought about were only temporary. When businesses utilize lean as a toolkit, copying and pasting the methodologies without trying to adapt the employee culture, manage the improvement process, maintain the outcomes, and grow their leaders, 7 out of every 10 lean projects fail.

What wasn't made obvious was that Toyota would need to invest heavily in personnel development and training throughout a protracted leadership development process. An issue with management and leadership, as well as an incorrect understanding of human behavior and the necessary culture for success, is the failure to achieve and sustain improvement.

"Theory of Change, the Right Way" è il metodo pratico per partire dal futuro che vuoi creare e lavorare a ritroso fino alle azioni di oggi. Con il backwards mapping, le assumption nascoste e le sentinel metrics, imparerai a progettare impatto misurabile invece di sperare che le cose migliorino.
