Visualization as a Tool for Solving Community Development Association 's Disunity . 

 CHALLENGE 

 I became a member of a Community Development Association ( CDA ) when I relocated to the area . The   members were not impressed with the activities of the Executive Committee ( EXCO ) members due to   financial misappropriation , lack of transparency , low level of developmental projects when compared to   financial contributions . This limited the members active participation and their financial commitment to   the Association . 

 SELECTION 

 Members of my street pulled out of the larger CDA to stand alone , and I was made the Acting Leader of   the smaller group . The tool I used was the tool of visualization to visualize the bad state of our   environment and the likely results if we co - operate to bring the needed development to our street to   serve as a reference point to other members in the larger CDA . The need to co - operate among members   and transparency on the part of selected leader(s ) . The visualization about digging of Alternative   drainage system to control the flood on our road whenever it rains and how to make the street a better   abode for the habitants . 

 APPLICATION 

 Members were given roles to play in the smaller CDA . Bank account was opened , and the signatories   were different from those who get transaction alerts ( both SMS and E - mail ) to serve as check and   balance and to bring about the transparency concerns raised in the larger CDA . 

 Developmental projects that were visualized at selection stage were embarked upon with members   actively participated both in financial commitment and physical involvement . The projects embarked   upon during the 13 - month tenure with various level of completion stage were : 

 •   Digging of Alternative Drainage system to control flood whenever it rains . 

 •   Provision of streetlight on the 13 electric poles on the street 

 •   Grading of the alternative road access as second entrance to the street 

 •   Numbering of each Building on the street including the vacant plots of land . 

 •   Mounting of Giant Gate at the entrance of the second road ( Ongoing ) 

 Also , individual members were assisted to get Prepaid meters for their building to relief them from the   menace of outrageous estimated bills from Electricity Distribution Company . 

 INSIGHTS 

 The visualization tool helped to increase the enthusiasm of members to participate effectively in   decision makings on steps needed to bring those itemized development to the smaller CDA . This showed   the larger CDA on how things could be done better as the smaller CDA became a reference point in the   community . Several donations were received from members outside their statutory levies and this   shaped my thinking that once members valid agitations are addressed in a peaceful manner , their no   limit to their co - operation and the multiplier effect can exceed expectation . 

 APPROACH 

 The visualization tool was very successful in addressing ‘ What is ’ , ‘ What if ’ , ‘ What wows ’ and ‘ What   works ’ questions in Design Thinking for Innovation . And I intended to sell this idea to the larger CDA for   emulation . 

 Though this visualization was largely successful , there might need to apply more than one approach as   few members of the smaller CDA recluse from active participation when the praises and ovation are   being showered on me as the innovator of the new development . It gave me an insight that individual   wants should not be subsumed into general evaluation no matter how laudable the result was . Other   tools like Mind Mapping or StoryTelling might be considered for those individuals who I considered   outliers .
