    Inputs & Outputs

    What the assistant has to know about the learner's case, asked outright or picked up from the conversation, and what the learner leaves with.

    • Target market - the country and segment in view
    • Risk appetite - how much the firm can afford to lose
    • Existing capabilities - what the firm already has on the ground

    Outputs: Recommended entry mode, Rationale

  3. 3

    Logic Structure

    The questions you'd ask, in your order. The assistant takes the learner through them one at a time.

    Does the firm need tight control of how the product is sold?
    • YesCan it commit capital for three years or more?
      • YesWholly owned subsidiary
      • NoJoint venture with a local partner
    • NoLicensing agreement

Type your analysis…

Start with context

The learner picks their course's assistant and describes what they're working on. Nudge starts by gathering context.

Work each stage

Decision checks and structured questions at every stage, held to the criteria you set for when a stage is done.

Reach a decision

Finish with a recommendation, plan, or checklist the learner can defend, because they built it step by step.
