Work through each of the questions on the Super Hunch Sketch Pad.

You will not have all the information you need, so make note of additional information necessary to answer your questions.

Then, time to test your hunch:◦ How much impact will you have on the problem?◦ How feasible is this idea likely to be?

Identify the hunch you’ve been considering What is your assessment of this idea’s impact

and feasibility? What do you need to better understand in

order to further test your hunch?
