Selection strategies

Learning objective

By the end of this lesson, you will be able to:

  • Define a selection strategy and its three components
  • Explain the difference between item-level and strategy-level eligibility
  • Identify the three ranking method options a selection strategy can use

Materials needed

  • 12 playing cards (Jack, Queen, King from each suit)
  • 12 sticky notes, filled with both attribute name and values from previous lessons

Lecture

During this lesson you’ll apply two full selection strategies (a collection + a ranking formula together) against sample profiles, removing ineligible or out-of-collection phones first, then ranking what’s left.

Key takeaways

  • A selection strategy applies a ranking method to a collection of decision items, plus optional strategy-level eligibility
  • The three ingredients of every selection strategy: a collection, eligibility, and a ranking method
  • A ranking method can be original priority scores alone, a ranking formula, or an AI model
  • Strategy-level eligibility layers on top of any eligibility already set at the decision item level
