How can a weekly review show what a team learned?
Sejal Amin described a shift from asking what a team shipped to asking what it learned, with one condition: write the hypothesis down before testing it. Without that record, a team can mistake a busy week for evidence that its plan was right.
Pick one assumption behind the work underway and make it specific enough to challenge. A team might believe customers abandon a request because the instructions are unclear. Assuming a chatbot will improve the experience is a different claim.
Write what you expect to observe and how you'll check it, using information the team is allowed to collect. Name what evidence would make you reconsider the explanation as well as what would support it.
At the review, compare the expectation with what happened, and keep observation apart from interpretation. Three people asking the same question is an observation. Concluding that every customer needs a new interface takes more evidence.
End with a decision about the work. You may need a smaller test or a revised explanation, or the plan itself may change. Write down why you chose that next step so the following review can examine it.
The review is there to notice when the evidence no longer supports what the team intended to build.
