THINKING: There's an App for that! - 4D™
4D™ encourages smart thinking - it answers the critical questions for the 21st CENTURY ORGANIZATION. Quite simply it is a sequence of 4 Frameworks that ensure a leadership team thinks deeply - and in the widest CONTEXT - about what COULD, SHOULD and WILL be done to ensure the future it wants. It then sustains the OUTCOME through TOOLS and TECHNIQUES right across the enterprise. It’s PROVEN and UNIQUE
Discovering New Meaning
Discovery Asks what NEW meaning could we create? 4D™ Developing New Meaning
Development Discusses what NEW meaning should we create? 4D™
Deciding New Meaning
Decision Decides what NEW meaning will we create? 4D™ Deploying New Meaning
Deployment Ensures that the NEW meaning we created gets deployed 4D™ Go to: 4D™, The 'Pixar' Of Consulting, A Vision Model
4D™ is our approach to solving complex problems. It is an answer machine for every business problem or opportunity. We have designed 4 phases which are undergone in a variety of pragmatic ways. We deploy this with an extensive portfolio of skills to implement them
Given the agreement over the critical Exam Questions we the use the core skills of Conversations, Pattern Recognition,Facilitation, Visualisation, Design Thinking, Contextual Analysis, Systems Thinking, Integrative Thinking and Information Design - We then deploy through SVT Live™ and Vision Models
Explaining The Frameworks of 4D™
4D™ Explained
4D™ is quite simply the 4 phases of:
- Discovering - alignment of the key stakeholders - creating the right context for what is and what is possible. Do we all agree and share common ground and definitions of what we could do.
- Developing of what we have now uncovered/discovered in the Discovering phase and is understood to be required.We are now starting to create strategies, change scenarios - hard plans for the future.
- Deciding which then sorts all of the choices into a coherent set - a journey - a road-map that leads to the outcomes and finally
- Deploying which sustains the transformation or change program over the long term.
The Logic Frameworks
During each phase we use the following logical modules - visual frameworks - as complete sets of information. They are caused by dialog, followed by analysis, in order to create the widest context before distilling the knowledge into the key decisions. See Decision Manifesto
