Instructions

操作步骤

When asked to document a pivot decision, follow these steps:

Summarize Current State Document what you're currently doing, how long you've been doing it, what you've invested, and what results you've achieved. This grounds the decision in reality.
Present the Evidence Compile all relevant data: metrics, user feedback, experiment results, market signals. Be comprehensive.include evidence that supports both staying and changing course.
Review Hypotheses Revisit the original hypotheses that justified the current direction. Which have been validated? Which have been invalidated? Which remain untested?
Define Options Articulate at least three options: persevere (continue current direction), and two or more distinct pivot options. Describe each option concretely.what would change?
Analyze Each Option Evaluate options against key criteria: market opportunity, competitive advantage, team capability, resource requirements, and risk. Use evidence, not opinions.
Make the Decision State the chosen direction clearly. Explain the rationale, acknowledging trade-offs. If the team disagrees, capture dissenting views.
Plan Implementation Outline what happens next: immediate actions, resource needs, success criteria for the new direction, and communication plan.

总结当前状态 记录当前正在开展的工作、已持续时长、投入资源以及取得的成果。让决策基于实际情况。
呈现证据 整理所有相关数据：指标、用户反馈、实验结果、市场信号。确保内容全面，同时包含支持坚持现有路线和调整方向的证据。
回顾假设 重新审视证明当前方向合理性的初始假设。哪些已被验证？哪些已被推翻？哪些尚未验证？
定义选项 明确至少三个选项：坚持（继续当前方向），以及两个或更多不同的转型选项。具体描述每个选项：会有哪些变化？
分析各选项 根据关键标准评估选项：市场机会、竞争优势、团队能力、资源需求及风险。基于证据而非观点进行评估。
做出决策 清晰说明选定的方向。解释决策理由，同时承认权衡取舍。若团队存在分歧，记录不同意见。
规划实施 概述后续行动：即时措施、资源需求、新方向的成功标准，以及沟通计划。
