  1. 1

    Draw a large 2x2 matrix with a central square labeled 'Actions' for committed changes.

  2. 2

    Label the four quadrants as 'Appreciations,' 'Puzzles,' 'Risks,' and 'Wishes.'

  3. 3

    Distribute pens and sticky notes, assigning a color to each quadrant. Allow participants 5-10 minutes per category to write down their thoughts.

  4. 4

    Have participants post their notes on the chart, then group similar ideas together.

  5. 5

    Discuss the feasibility and impact of the ideas, focusing on developing practical actions for improvement.

Conseils

  • Encourage open sharing by framing 'Risks' as opportunities for improvement.

  • Introduce each quadrant just before it’s time to focus on it to maintain concentration.

  • Create a relaxed atmosphere to promote candid discussions and innovative thinking.

Variantes

You can adapt this method for virtual environments using digital collaboration tools to simulate the physical chart and sticky notes. Adjust the time for each segment based on the group's engagement and discussion depth.
