The problem isn’t a lack of ideas or communication. The problem is everyone has a different framework. The same words mean different things.
You’re probably wondering how it works.
- You ask a framing question.
Example: “What kind of place do we want this organization to be? - Each participant answers the question by choosing images, arranging them on a background sheet.
- After 5 minutes, participants describe the images and their meanings.
- some use literal descriptions
- some metaphoric
- some describe individual images
others find meaning in the collection as a whole.
- You discuss the group’s responses and note connections, patterns, similarities.
- Together, you unlock insights it would have taken months to uncover with conventional methods.
Here’s why it works.
The bottom line? You don’t need to understand why it works to benefit. But here’s the short version.
- Participants feel safe because the focus is on images and meanings rather than on personal opinions.
- Participants engage a different, more creative part of their brains than they’re used to. They have fun.
- Conversations become meaningful and productive. Options become clear.
- Both the images and the process are extensively tested. Our images were whittled down from 20,000 to 200 through two years of testing with live groups.
