7 Ps
The 7 Ps can be used to understand and unpack the components of the THING (the WHATs - what people need to do differently). It helps define the WHATs, illustrating the different forms that the WHATs can take.
Note that sometimes we call it the 6 Ps when talking to an audience (like schools) where “pills” don’t seem appropriate.
