INSIGHT

The Power of the OODA Loop

  • The OODA loop, developed by Colonel John Boyd, is a powerful framework for decision-making under pressure involving Observe, Orient, Decide, and Act.
  • Success comes from cycling the loop faster and more accurately than competitors in dynamic, fast-moving situations.
ANECDOTE

Crowd as Real-Time Focus Group

  • Triple H and WWE use the crowd as a live focus group to test and refine moves or entrances in real time.
  • For example, Jey Uso's rhythmic bounce and "yeet" chant evolved by observing and building on crowd reactions.
ADVICE

Apply OODA Loop to Life

  • Start applying the OODA loop by choosing one area in your life to observe signals honestly about what works and what doesn’t.
  • Then orient, decide on one clear adjustment, act confidently, and repeat the process.
