How-To #1• Supplies matter: Have a lot of regular size stickies &
fine point Sharpies. (limits the number of words per sticky)
• Write one idea per sticky.
• Create as many stickies as you can, quickly. (10-30mins)
• Each person makes one big pile of stickies without regard for whether they’re right, good, cohesive, or useful.
• THE RESEARCH QUESTION IS... “Write down everything you know about the company’s strategy.”

How-To #2
• Together, sort all of the stickies into clusters. (ideal group size is 3-4)
• Talk a lot.
• Name the clusters. (Use a different color sticky.)
• Look over the whole the story created by the clusters. Notice gaps, trends, disagreements.
• Talk a lot.

What we’re doing
• Extracting from people the beliefs, ideas, and instincts about the business,
• ...So that we can deconstruct them,
• ...So that we can identify patterns and recognize gaps and disagreements,
• ...In order to see the storyline clearly.

Facilitator
• Encourage a lot of stickies.
• Encourage fewer words per sticky -- if it doesn’t fit, it’s more than one idea.
• Encourage discussion during clustering -- this is the real value-creating activity.
• Put multiples together, noting the agreement.
