Challenge   In a strategic planning workshop for the IT division of my organization , we gathered our IT managers   to identify changes necessary for our division to deliver enhanced values to our organization as well   as plans to achieve them . We were to focus on five areas : Cybersecurity , Agile Transformation ,   Empower our Business , Future - Ready Workforce and Platform Strategy . By the end of the one - day   workshop , we were to identify and align common future - oriented visions in these areas and   concrete steps towards these visions . 

 Selection   This workshop was expected to require a lot of idea generation , exploration and pattern findings for   our task of “ designing ” our vision and workplan . As mentioned in the video lecture , visualization   allows us to access the non - verbal , creative part of our brains normally not used with just   conversation . With the advantage of a visual tool over plain discussion , we sourced for a visual   canvas tool : 5 Bold Steps Vision by David Sibbet of the Grove International to guide our flow of the   workshop . This tool serves as a template that through several rounds of collaboration , the canvas   was to be filled up while our visions and steps to achieve them are formed . The canvas template that   was used in our workshop is shown below . 

 More details about this tool can be found at this link : https://designabetterbusiness.tools/tools/5- bold - steps - canvas 

 Application   We formed our IT managers into 5 groups with 6 to 7 members each to focus each on our identified   areas of concern : Cybersecurity , Agile Transformation , Empower our Business , Future - Ready   Workforce and Platform Strategy . Each group went though three phases of ideation : Phase 1 –   Vision elements and Vision statement ; Phase 2 – the Bold Steps ; Phase 3 – Supports , Challenges and   Underlying Values . During each phase , members wrote their ideas into post - it notes and sticked   them to the canvas template provided . Members were also free to re - arrange and form cluster with   the post - it notes as themes and patterns emerged . 

 Upon the completion of the ideation phases , each group explained their canvas to the participants .   Participants were free to walkabout to examine other groups ’ canvases closely , ask questions and   give comments . Based on the questions and comments from the participants , each group further   refine on their canvas . The purpose of the workshop was met with the visions and steps ( workplan )   recorded in the five canvases produced . 

 An example of a filled canvas during the workshop is shown below : 

 Insight   During the workshop I observed how a visual tool can guide ideas generation effectively . I also   observed how post - it notes were re - arranged and themes were identified . The workshop will not be   as effective if conducted with only conversation and discussion without a visual aid . 

 The canvas also served as a great communication tool when group members explained their ideas to   the participants . Useful conversations were also sparked between group members and participants   which triggered even more useful ideas and insights . 

 Approach   The workshop was a success that met its objective of identifying a set common agreed visions for   our divisions and our work plans to achieve the vision . In future workshop we will definitely use   similar visual tool to guide our program flow . There are many similar visual tools for different   purpose and for example this site gives us a good repertoire of visual tools :   https://designabetterbusiness.tools/
