@gervais Thanks for the question. Can you give a bit more background on Blue Ocean Strategy? The consulting firm, Monitor I think, had a guy who wrote a book of that title? I don’t remember the details. If you can provide a bit of background I could give a better answer.

For those interested, here’s an excerpt from my book showing some of these fast learning strategies across diverse settings--workplace safety at Alcoa, accelerated NPD for jet engines at Pratt and Whitney, stand up of the Navy’s reactor program, and the launch of an internet advertising pioneer..

@steve773, curious if you know how the navy decided on which problems to solve vs. other options?
