The Delphi Method

"Carry out operations only after having first determined your
strategy. One must have clear awareness of the capabilities
of one's forces, the vulnerabilities of opponents,
and the lay of the land."
Sun Tzu, the Art of War

 

The "Delphi Method" is a technique for problem solving and decision making. It was originally developed during the cold war by the U.S. Intelligence think tank, the RAND Corporation. It was designed for use on complex or ambiguous problems that exceed the capabilities of a single person.

It permits you to harness the knowledge, expertise and abilities of an entire group of disparate people - each with unique perspectives and knowledge: marketing & sales, engineering & production, customer service, and purchasing.

It is especially well suited for strategic business planning in uncertain and fast moving environments.

This business guide includes an example - how you would use the method if you were responsible for leading your company in a rapidly changing market place against intense competition.

This 11 page business guide provides a condensed discussion of the use of the "Delphi Method" for strategic planning.
