Rita McGrath and Ian MacMillan introduced Discovery Driven Planning (DDP) in 1995 in a Harvard Business Review (HBR) article, and it has since become a classic methodology for planning innovation initiatives, even influencing the Lean Startup movement (Gallo, 2017) The first third of the article provides a background on how businesses often have faulty assumptions for new ventures, like Disney’s multi-fronted failure at launching Disneyland Paris. It also includes four areas where businesses do not identify or validate their assumptions. The remainder of the article demonstrates how DDP tools can be used retrospectively in a case study of a company’s successful entry into the floppy disc market in 1988. The focus to continue to test assumptions and look for areas to innovate parallels Miller and Wedell-Wedellsborg’s keystone of Focus from their book Innovation as Usual.
