Exploratory Product Development: Executive Version
This executive version examines the organizational constraints imposed by a standard phased-and-gated product development process. We discuss why those constraints are a problem for organizations operating in today’s complex and changing world. We then look at the lessons of the Manhattan Project, a highly successful historical project, and introduce Exploratory PD (ExPD), an adaptable and flexible approach to developing products.
