Coherence Mapping Matrix

ACTIVITY 1 Accelerating Knowledge Sharing
Each Catalytic Thinking Lab is supported by a WindTunneling project. WindTunneling is a systemic methodology to accelerate learning and knowledge sharing. Share what you learned from the lab transparently and anonymously. Compare your thinking and respond to the ideas of others. Everyone gets to see every idea; no one knows who shared which idea.
Go to WindTunneling. Use Project Code 77NCAC to record your insights.
ACTIVITY 2 Synthesis
Spend 10-30 minutes quietly reflecting on Coherence Mapping and the Coherence Mapping Matrix. Consider the ways you could use these systemic techniques in your work. What would be different from the way you work now? What would have to change within your organization to make these techniques a part of your working culture?
ACTIVITY 3 Practicing Coherence Mapping Matrix
Continue with your team on the activity you started above. The first draft of your matrix you made assumptions on behalf of the players that you identified. Now, go to the players directly and ask them what they need. Document their needs in the matrix making changes as you go.
Once you have spoken to all of the players, what new picture do you see? What is different from your draft? Do you have new recommendations based on the updated version of your matrix?
