In fact, even before that, do we say, what's the purpose we're trying to achieve here with this change? And what's the purpose of this system? When we're clear on the purpose of the improvement or the system, we can then say, well, what are the ideal behaviours that we are looking for that will deliver that purpose? And when we clear our knowledge, then we can make sure we design the system that supports them. Now, will we get it right all the time? Probably not 100% right. Again, that's why we need to assess ourselves. Okay, well, we thought that that would drive X behaviour. It hasn't. Why not? Or it's not quite what we were looking for. Why not?
