What Is Trend Spotting?
Apply trend spotting deliberately to the situations in which that capability is relevant, with attention to the decisions, behaviours, or outputs that trend spotting directly affects.
Why Does Trend Spotting Matter?
Trend Spotting matters when the outcome depends on doing more than the broad task itself; the specific capability described by trend spotting can determine how accurately, clearly, efficiently, or appropriately the work is carried out.
What Does It Look Like?
Someone applying trend spotting may:
- •uses trend spotting deliberately rather than treating it as an automatic habit
- •checks the part of the result most affected by trend spotting
- •adjusts the approach when the situation changes what trend spotting requires
