The SCORE framework can help you to brainstorm your current situation, define possible options and courses of action, then define your response and actions.
This Inspiration mind map template will help you brainstorm ideas at each stage of the process, and keep track of the thinking, decisions made, and progress on actions.
AI Generated Description:
The mind map illustrates the SCORE Framework, a structured decision-making and planning tool that helps assess strategic situations and identify effective actions. It is divided into five key areas:
1. Strengths – Focuses on analysing the current situation, identifying organisational advantages, and spotting opportunities.
2. Challenges – Considers internal weaknesses and external threats that may hinder progress or success.
3. Options – Evaluates possible courses of action (e.g. Response A, B, C), each with a comparison of pros and cons to support better decision-making.
4. Response – Details the chosen course of action and breaks it into implementation phases, making the execution plan more manageable and trackable.
5. Effectiveness – Defines objectives, key results, and success metrics to ensure accountability and assess impact over time.
How it can be used:
The SCORE Framework can be applied in strategic planning, problem-solving, project development, or change management. Teams can use it in workshops to brainstorm, analyse scenarios, and align around actionable steps.
Who might find it useful:
- Business leaders and managers making strategic decisions
- Project teams assessing options and risks
- Consultants guiding clients through structured planning
- Educators teaching decision frameworks
- Startups prioritising actions in uncertain environments
It's especially valuable for collaborative planning and visualising a path from analysis to execution.
