75-90% of products fail* because:

They do not solve the right problem, ...

They do not solve the problem right, ...

Or they struggle to navigate the system.

The VIC triangle combines all essential disciplines for high impact into a systematic, iterative approach.

VIC triangle Venn diagram

1

Vision and leadership

Product managers and executives

Strong visionaries are inspirational, supportive and confident on the outcomes they pursue. When you combine the right culture with the right techniques, you create a version of leadership that empowers everyone around you to pursue those outcomes.

2

Integration and performance

Team members and leaders

Performing integrators are driven, focused and aware of the environment around them. When you mix invaluable principles with the best practices, you become an unstoppable asset everyone trusts.

3

Cultivation and growth

Coaches, people managers and Scrum Masters

Impactful growth agents are supportive, affirming and challenging to the individuals they partner. The proper mindset of exploration and empowerment to those you cultivate, sustained by a truly transformative process is the key factor to success.

Good product teams understand and implement both principles and practices, founded in outcomes and simplicity.

Practices alone are uninformed. Principles alone are inconclusive.

Combined, they are profitable.
