- 1
Before the session, prepare a 2x2 matrix on a large paper or whiteboard, with each quadrant representing: dislikes, likes, new ideas, and appreciated team members.
- 2
Distribute sticky notes and markers to participants, allowing 5-10 minutes for them to individually write down their thoughts for each quadrant.
- 3
Have participants share their notes with the group and place them in the appropriate section of the matrix.
- 4
Give participants 6-10 dot stickers to vote on the ideas they believe are most important, resolving ties through discussion or additional voting.
- 5
Reorganize the notes based on priority and discuss how these insights can be used to improve future iterations.
Conseils
Encourage continuous brainstorming even after initial ideas are posted to keep the discussion dynamic.
Ensure a neutral facilitator leads the session to maintain focus and comfort among participants.
This method works best when everyone feels safe to express their views.
Variantes
Consider using digital tools for remote teams to replicate the matrix and voting process online. You can also adapt the quadrants to better fit the specific context or goals of your project.
