An Ignite is much more than a collaborative planning workshop. It is the start of the exciting journey where the transformation of a team begins. There are what I call Four Magic Moments that occur in an Ignite that demonstrates the transformation has begun. Here is the first one: We bring together the leadership of different teams with different skill sets, different priorities, and different goals. Then we try to mash them together into a single list of prioritized work. Many struggle to see the logic of combining such disparate teams and often can be quite resistant to it. However, by the end of the Ignite, they would have come together as one to all agree on what outcomes need to be achieved for the betterment of the greater good, sometimes at the expense of their personal goals. They would have had an exciting and passionate debate and asked the tough questions in order to get the right answers. This presents itself in the form of a combined Top 20 across the leadership team. From this point forward, they are now committed to working together to ensure the Top 20 is delivered. And the probability that the most important business outcomes being achieved increases significantly. And that is a Magic Moment. #200Ignites AdaptivOrg + Seisma SEISMA GROUP Follow me on LinkedIn: https://lnkd.in/gz8dkuhU
