Description

There seems to be a universal iterative cycle that complex systems take in decision making. Understanding each stage can help you make better, more accurate decisions.

This is the Simon Wardley strategy cycle:

  1. Purpose (why we do what we do)
  2. Landscape (where we’re acting)
  3. Climate (what trends and forces are occuring)
  4. Doctrine (apply universal patterns to orient ourselves)
  5. Leadership/Gameplay (decision for action)

Originates from Simon Wardley’s work, which is a combination of multiple sources, including Sun Tzu’s Art of War, and John Boyd’s work on OODA loops.
