millions of people engaged in this work all over the
country
• These are all experiments – experiments should
have a hypothesis, and test that hypothesis over
and over
• Total buy in and support of a dedicated team are
vital
• Results are not always what we hope they will be,
that’s okay and necessary

55. Action Items
• Develop a code of honor for your team
o Define patterns of conduct for both yourselves and your clients
ahead of time
o Be sure everyone is on the same page before you begin the
process
• Create a clear mission for the project
o Will we seek to provide simple solutions to meet immediate needs
or will we provide a more transformational approach
• Design a road map for your work
o The road map will guide what experiments get performed first
o The road map will provide a platform for reporting outcomes and
defining a go/nogo threshold for the continuation of experiments
• Have fun!
