Chris Broderick led us through a scientifically proven process that helps us break through barriers, remove blind spots, and unlock innovation. During our hands-on program, we tapped the wisdom around us to uncover what we don’t see (We don’t know what we don’t know.). The process was introduced by Hal Gregersen – Executive Director, MIT Leadership Center.
We modeled the program first (which you can watch in the recording) and then each participant went through it in breakout groups. It was a powerful experience and we all were able to uncover a few unknown questions to help us breakthrough.
The Process (6 minutes):
- Pick ONE challenge or opportunity and share it with your group
- Your group needs to ask any questions that come to mind that they would want to pose – questions you should be asking yourself to successfully tackle/overcome the challenge or opportunity.
- You are not allowed to respond, just write down the questions. (You should end up with 15-20 questions.)
Post-Process Reflection:
- Study the questions you’ve been given
- Group questions along with common themes
- Identify one or two that create new pathways to explore your problem
- Commit to pursuing at least one new pathway
