Eckhart and I have been chatting for some time so it was great to finally speak to him about his Jobs to be Done canvas, The Wheel of Progress. Inspired by Bob, Moesta's Jobs to be Done frameworks (watch my interview with Bob here), the Four Forces and the Timeline of Progress, Eckhart has developed a process for structuring the analysis and information from customer interviews. Here's the full interview:
During the discussion there were a lot of questions and I mentioned many sources in the video. Here are the links:
