Example Reflection – Visualization & Storytelling 

 Challenge & Selection 

 I am a lawyer , in my work I mainly use a storytelling tool , because in order to resolve any legal   issues , you need to understand the situation and the possible consequences of a particular   decision . But it happens that with colleagues we also resort to such a tool as visualization ,   although in these matters it may not seem entirely appropriate . 

 The problem that I want to describe concerned a group of displaced people who were refused   to pay social benefits . The problematic issue was the ambiguous interpretation of the law . To   resolve the issue , an integrated approach was required , obtaining information from displaced   persons , employees assigning social benefits and studying judicial practice . Studying the   situation from all sides allowed us to find an acceptable solution for all participants . 

 Selection 

 With team we decided to use two tools - Visualization & Storytelling . Storytelling was needed to   get information from all participants in the process . Since there was a lot of information and   participants , we decided to visualize it on our work board and update / supplement as we   receive it 

 Application 

 For the beginning , with colleagues we collected information from all IDPs , studied legislation   and judicial practice , and also held several meetings with social service department . After all   meetings and discussion a gap in legislation regarding this issue was identified , and request for   clarification was send to the Ministry of Social Policy . Also , claims were filed to the court , since   the court 's decision was determined by all parties as an acceptable option in resolving this   issue . 

 Then , upon receipt of the information , we visualized it , made a “ map ” of receiving these   payments and marking participants , institutions and problematic zones . We tried to find   meeting points and ways to resolve the issue . 

 Insight & Approach 

 Judicial practice in such cases was positive , representatives of the social protection service   began to refuse to assign payments much less often , since they also received the necessary   clarification and justifications for them to assign payments in specific cases that were not   mentioned in regulatory legal acts . The social service department began to receive fewer   complaints and lawsuits , and IDPs received their payments on time . It took more than 6 months   to resolve this issue , but an integrated approach still allowed us to find it . 

 I like to use the visualization tool where it seems unacceptable , and I find the tool storytelling   very useful and informative , people without knowing it themselves can offer a lot of interesting   ideas or directions in their search in a conversation .
