Resources: True North
As featured in the book and in our transformation strategy workshops, our True North statement, released under a Creative Commons with-attribution (CC-BY-SA) licence to enable its adaptation and wider use:
As text (the "Imagine..." is optional):
Imagine...
Everyone able to work consistently at their best:
- Individuals, teams, between teams,
across the organisation and beyond- Right conversations, right people, best possible moment
- Needs anticipated, met at just the right time
Chapter 1 of Agendashift: Outcome-oriented change and continuous transformation (2018) describes the True North used in conjunction with 15-minute FOTO, our coaching game. Instead of a lecture on Lean and Agile, we like to start with the True North as a jargon-free invitation that engages the imagination. Then (describing the process in brief):
- What's that like? What's different?
- What obstacles are in the way?
- What would you like to have happen?
- Then what happens?
This powerful workshop or coaching exercise is the start of a generative process that encourages meaningful participation and co-creation.
