A company was experiencing a crisis due to a market change. The situation triggered an internal crisis and the board put up a task force to prepare a plan to be presented at the next board meeting .
Following Applied intelligence Atelier's recommendation, the task force prepared an iWorkshop™ meeting in an isolated and well equipped place. A knowledge faciitator and a computer loaded with IDEAprocessor connected to a large screen projector was provided by AiA.
They sat down in front of the large screen, paperless, and started to describe the actual situation. They brain stormed about the different elements that characterized the crisis using the graphical language K-language from [a-i-a.com], included in IDEAprocessor™. Upon describing the components of the crisis and their relationships to each other, a diagram emerged on the screen that clarified the cause of the problem (This is a task which is the basis of IDEAprocessor's functionality). They were able to 'see' the problem as a diagram which helped them put together ideas to plan a new strategy. Being as everybody's insight was used, consensus came naturally and an action plan was prepared, using K-language easy planning features.
The task force expected to have to work all night but with IDEAprocessor's new approach, the crisis was solved in about three hours. It was not necessary to make a write up of their plan since IDEAprocessor's working diagrams or schema serve this purpose. A plan was ready to be presented at the next management meeting.
