The first step, "Plan," emphasizes the importance of establishing clear objectives, understanding project constraints, and defining tasks and timelines. It also suggests selecting appropriate research methods and identifying sources for information. This foundational phase is critical for setting the direction of the project.

The second step, "Position," focuses on stakeholder engagement. It highlights the necessity of informing both internal and external stakeholders about the plan and securing their buy-in. This step is essential for ensuring alignment and support throughout the project lifecycle.

Moving to the third step, "Conduct," the slide stresses execution. It involves monitoring progress against the established plan, making necessary adjustments, and keeping the team and clients informed about findings. This phase is about maintaining momentum and ensuring that the project stays on track.

Finally, the fourth step, "Synthesize," is about analysis and reflection. It encourages teams to assess outcomes, identify key insights, summarize findings, and make recommendations based on the gathered data. This step is crucial for deriving value from the work done and informing future initiatives.
