5-D Cycle

The 5-D Cycle is a process used in strategic planning and problem-solving, involving five key phases: Define, Design, Develop, Deliver, and Drive. It helps organizations systematically identify goals, create solutions, implement them, and then evaluate and refine outcomes. Think of it as a continuous loop where you clearly understand the challenge (Define), plan solutions (Design), build or execute them (Develop), put them into action (Deliver), and then assess their effectiveness to improve further (Drive). This cycle ensures ongoing improvement and adaptability, aligning efforts with objectives efficiently.
