Conduct a Pre-Mortem
Story maps aren’t the only way to help us see our own assumptions. Gary Klein, a cognitive psychologist and author of several books on decision-making, flipped the idea of a post-mortem on its head.
Continuous Discovery Habits
Teresa Torres
Visualizations tend to open up strategy, making it not only more understandable but also more inclusive across the organization. Several techniques help illustrate strategy graphically. These include strategy maps, strategy canvases, the strategy blueprint, and the business model canvas and value proposition canvas. These tools complement and extend alignment diagrams.
Mapping Experiences
James Kalbach
Let’s fix it: Ask how they currently solve X and how much it costs them to do so. And how much time it takes. Ask them to talk you through what happened the last time X came up.
