OODA Loop

The OODA Loop is a decision-making process developed by military strategist Colonel John Boyd. It stands for Observe, Orient, Decide, Act. First, you observe the situation to gather information. Next, you orient yourself by analyzing that information and considering your options. Then, you decide on a course of action. Finally, you act on your decision. This loop can be repeated, allowing individuals or organizations to adapt quickly to new information and changing circumstances. It emphasizes agility and responsiveness, making it valuable in various fields, from business to sports and military strategy.
