Challenge : 

 We wanted to some strategic value add for our Client for quite some time . We had been doing small   improvements here and there in the application in the Environment , Health and Safety Domain area for   the Discrete Manufacturing Giant but were not able to showcase something disruptive and game   changing . Then it occurred to me that we could suggest a solution which would help the Client take   strategic decisions for the future . The only way to do that was do a predictive analysis of environmental   and health - safety data parameters for the next few years to guide the Client to take strategic decisions for   the firm ’s success . However the Challenge was to find appropriate environmental and health - safety   parameters on which this predictive analysis experiment could be done . 

 Selection : 

 Since I had around 5 Consultants available to work on this initiative , I felt the best tool to solve this   challenge will be Mind Mapping . We felt mapping the minds of 5 Consultants who come from different   domain backgrounds will give us enough common insight to select the best parameters for the predictive   analysis . We gave the Sustainability reports for 5 top firms from different domain areas like Banking ,   Power Generation , Insurance , Auto , Telecom to each of these Consultants and asked them to study the   parameters ( Environmental and Health - Safety ones ) these firms had declared in the report as per the GRI   ( Global Reporting Initiative ) guidelines . 

 Application 

 Each Consultant took the Sustainability Report assigned and studied the parameters declared by the   respective firm and studied them . And each of them shortlisted some of the parameters on Environment   and Health - Safety as per their understanding and analysis of the report and their belief as to which   parameter mattered most to that firm in today ’s market scenario and feasibility of implementation . Once   all the Consultants were able to shortlist their parameters , I called a meeting involving all of them and ask   everyone to present to the others their shortlisted parameters and their reasons for doing so . By getting   each Consultant to speak , I was able to achieve a meeting of the minds and we were able to determine 4- 5 commonly agreeable important environmental and health - safety parameters of GRI that could be   utilized for predictive analysis for our Discrete Manufacturing Client 

 Insight 

 The insight that I gained from the application of the Mind Mapping Tool was that usually to solve a   problem , you need existing data t understand the current situation and from that data we can determine   what is to be done to arrive at a solution for a better tomorrow . But the existing data usually exists in   different forms and can mean different things to different people based upon the person ’s background .   So as to get the best deal , it is always better for a group of people to analyze and collate the existing data .   Then a meeting between those people can lead to the meeting of the minds and can also establish some   common themes and patterns in the data which can then be leveraged to arrive at a solution 

 Approach 

 The next time , I am thinking , that we may experiment with the Visualization Tool . I will encourage my   Consultants to start with the problem statement and draw a visual sketch of the Customer pain points and   all the related dependencies pertaining to it through flow diagrams . Then based on the individual sketches   we might again try to do a meeting of the minds through Mind Mapping and try to find a common root   cause and base our solution to address that root cause . Experimentation is a key and I certainly believe   that with a combination of Visualization and Mind Mapping we could get better insights and answers
