Planning as Designing

Design is about legacy leadership.
Design is not just crazy creative. It’s also detailed execution.
Opposable mind: liquid and crystal.
Designing is collaborative. Hot groups.
Say “Yes to the mess”!
Ideation and rapid prototyping.

DESIGN Phase #1: �Brainstorming "How Might We…?”

18 of 37

Brainstormer Rules (pg. 27)

Defer judgment—don’t criticize
Encourage wild ideas
Go for quantity
Be visual
Build on the ideas of others
One idea at a time
Shout it out so others can hear

19 of 37

Self-Management & Group Roles

Brainstorm Facilitator–Helps to uphold the brainstorming rules & raises questions to keep the brainstorming moving. Challenges the group to go for quantity; encourage all voices!�

Timekeeper – Keeps group aware of time left. �

Brainstorm Radical – Helps to challenge the group to contribute bold, wild ideas.

Step 2: Clarify for Prototyping

Sort and organize your brainstormer into themes
Prioritize ideas
Narrow down to 1 or 2 ideas to move forward for prototyping (use dots to vote if needed)
Record on a flip chart (or take a picture) of all your ideas so they are archived

23 of 37

DESIGN Phase #2: �Rapid Prototyping

“All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.”

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Rapid Prototyping Principles

Create a tangible representation of your initiative idea (consider the Anita Roddick story).
Make it visual: storyboard, diagram, model, chart, a mash-up, book, day in the life, etc.
You can mockup anything: educational materials, products, services, organizational designs, processes, spaces, experiences, partnerships, etc.
Go fast, avoid paralysis—you can always revise…No frills—don’t sweat the looks

Really… Don’t Sweat the Looks

Later iterations will refine it

Prototyping Guidelines: Page 28

Build the idea to life
Make it 3-dimensional
Use any available materials
Consider things like:

Drawings
Video or a skit— “a day in the life”
Storyboard
3-D model
Web platform (design it)
Business proposal
Resource (like a book…create it)

REMEMBER: YOU MAY BREAK INTO SUBGROUPS TO TO BUILD DIFFERENT DIMENSIONS OF THE PROTOTYPE.
