A continuum is used to work with a team to see and discuss where they are on a question/topic.

Example: Ask the team how effective are the meetings they attend on a scale from 1-10

Input-Process-Output (IPO)• Top Tips for

Success• Start by engaging

people in defining the desired outcomes

• Give some real thought to the “P” and how you will help a group achieve their desired outcomes

• IPO only works if the team actually applies it during the meeting!

• IPO (Input-Process-Output) for meetings is a structured approach to ensure meetings are effective and efficient.

• IPO follows a simple process that starts with the outcomes we want to achieve, the process that will be used to achieve them and the inputs for each process step.

• By making visible the desired outcomes and process that will be followed, IPO improves engagement in the meeting creating clarity, alignment and results.

How to create an IPO

outputs?

(3) InputsWhat would be useful

to create these outputs?Decisions, PlansReports, Data

• A simple way to help teams identify the behaviours that will help and / or hinder achieving the desired outputs of the meeting.

• Ground Rules are agreed by the team at the start of the meeting to guide them on how they will work together to make them as effective as possible.

• They may cover processes, behaviours, values or attitudes that the team wants to promote and cares about.

• They provide a checklist for the observers and team members to watch out for

Examples / Tips for Success

• Start & finish on time

• All opinions are valid

• No side conversations

• Park anything not related to the agenda

• Minimize jargon

• Set phones on silent

• Close laptops

• Strong opinions, loosely held (be willing to let go if there is a better idea)

• One person speaking at a time

• Stay on topic

• Confidential issues remain in the room.

Fist or Five for Decision and Understanding

Top Tips for Success• Use fist or five regularly in your

meetings to test the extent of agreement to proposals – it’s not a ‘yes/no’ vote

• Clearly state your proposal and define what five fingers mean and what a fist means in the context of the proposal

• Only explore the issue further if someone holds up less than three fingers ; ask what it would take to get towards a 5?

• A visual tool to rapidly test and build consensus when a group needs to make a decision or choose a course of action

• A tool to ensure that the view of everyone in the group is included in the decision making

• A method to quickly assess the degree of agreement to a proposal so the team can move on, saving time-wasting circular discussions

• Use Skype poll for virtual meetings

Fist or Five Example

I vote no.

I need to talk more about the proposal and it will have to change before I agree.

I need to discuss

significant issues and

suggest changes

I’m not in total

agreement but can let

this decision pass without

further discussion

I think it’s a good

decision and I will support

it

I vote yes. Great idea! I fully

understand and

will support it

I would like to discuss

some minor issues

Ask: What will move you to a 3 or higher?

After Action Review • Key purpose is to help a team learn

and quickly apply the learning in real time to improve current performance.

• A quick and simple team learning process held while work is being performed, usually during a break in a process, activity or task.

• Intended to help teams “learn in the moment” as opposed to learning after a major project or activity has been completed.

• Designed to quickly identify lessons and immediate actions for the team and individuals and to build relationships, trust and confidence among team members.

Top Tips for Success

• Plan for an After Action Review immediately after a natural break in any work activity.

• It should not appear as add-on or extra work.

• Works best when there is a commitment to open discussion.

• Facilitator should ensure blame is not brought into the process.

• Only those involved in the event participate; no spectators.
