Speed Boat
The Speed Boat method helps teams identify obstacles that hinder progress towards a goal or the development of a product or service. By using a metaphorical boat with anchors, participants can visually represent and discuss these obstacles, facilitating a focused discussion on potential improvements.

- 1
Draw a boat on a whiteboard or flip chart, label it with the product, service, or goal in question, and add anchors to represent obstacles.
- 2
Pose a question related to the challenges faced, such as 'What features of our product are not well-received?' or 'What barriers are preventing progress?'
- 3
Ask participants to write down these obstacles on sticky notes, mentioning how much faster the 'boat' could go without each anchor.
- 4
Have participants place their sticky notes near the corresponding anchors.
- 5
Facilitate a discussion around the sticky notes to uncover insights and identify recurring themes.
Conseils
Keep the session focused on identifying obstacles rather than solving them.
Encourage open dialogue and ensure every participant's input is considered.
Remind participants that the goal is to gather data for future problem-solving efforts.
Variantes
You can adapt the metaphor by using a different vehicle, such as an airplane with luggage, to better fit your context. This can make the exercise more relatable and engaging for participants.
