## Resource

Pretty simple to make a hypothesis, right? If/Then statement, and boom, done. I already did most of the hard work in just having the framework. Not quite. A lot of work (and pre-work) SHOULD go into making a hypothesis, so that it can go from a "meh" but functional hypothesis, to a hypothesis that not only drives results, but trust in your experimentation program too! And bonus: Juliana "Run the Jewels" Jackson offers 2 columns / buckets of info you probably never considered which should be available for stakeholders to improve on the presentation of the hypothesis and test doc as a whole. We got into: - What exactly IS a hypothesis (good AND bad) - Why your hypotheses actually suck (and how to make it better) - Going beyond the hypothesis to make sure your test ideas are matching what stakeholders are looking for Timestamps: 00:00 Episode Start 07:24 Hypotheses Need to Reflect What the Business Truly Cares About 12:54 Example of a GOOD Hypothesis 20:21 Do Hypotheses Need to Be MORE Tactical?
