Solutions Navigator Workshops

Game Board
A key resource used by Innovation Services is the award-winning Solutions Navigator™ game-board planning tool. This tool allows cross-functional teams to quickly complete a variety of planning exercises in a fun, interactive and objective manner. This data-driven planning process maximizes stakeholder involvement and helps build consensus and accountability within the team. During the past two years, thousands of people from hundreds of organizations have participated in Solutions Navigation sessions all around the world.

Workshops typically go through two exercises. One that assesses a customer’s organizational needs and another that assesses their current practices. The end result being a prioritized list of the needs the organization identifies as important but need improvement on and a prioritized list of best practices that can be fine-tuned or implemented to satisfy the needs that were identified. The summary reports are easy to read and help your organization take action. Click to see a sample report.
