Bimodal
Bimodal describes two separate but similar work processes: Mode one focuses on predictability. It's a work style that focuses on repeating an organization's past achievements. For example, an organization might re-release its most popular product onto the market. Mode two is more exploratory. It's a work style that attempts to solve new problems. For example, organizations might release a new product with basic features to test customer responses for future product development.
