Visual Strategy and Priority Setting with 3D Worlds
An innovative prioritization and teambuilding strategy in English
Join us for a dynamic 1-day workshop where business professionals from diverse companies will explore the innovative "3D Welten" method. This hands-on workshop is designed to help you structure complex information, set clear priorities, and enhance team collaboration using a unique three-dimensional approach. You’ll learn how to visually map projects, identify key connections, and prioritize tasks in a way that makes complex topics easy to understand and discuss. By the end of the day, you’ll walk away with practical tools for simplifying complexity, fostering better team communication, and creating adaptable project plans.
Key Takeaways:
- Create a 3D visual representation of your project.
- Learn to prioritize tasks using height, space, and color.
- Gain tools for effective communication and decision-making.
- Experience a new way of collaborating with diverse perspectives.
The "3D Welten" (3D Worlds) method is an innovative team-building and priority-setting tool that uses visual and spatial techniques to facilitate complex discussions and decision-making within teams. Here’s a breakdown of what this method involves:
Key Concept
The "3D Welten" approach involves creating a three-dimensional representation of a project or topic, often using physical or digital tools to visually structure information. It’s designed to make complex content more understandable and interactive, allowing teams to engage with topics in a visual, tactile way.
How It Works
- Content Mapping: Information and topics are transferred onto flexible cards, which can be arranged and moved around. These cards act as the foundational pieces of the "3D World."
- Topic Islands: Related pieces of information are grouped into "topic islands." These islands visually represent key themes or categories, allowing team members to see how different areas are connected.
- Distance as Meaning: The physical distance between the islands represents the relationship between topics. Closer islands indicate closely related subjects, while more distance suggests less direct connections.
- Priority Heights: The use of different heights in the 3D representation is a way to set priorities. Higher elements indicate higher priority, while lower ones suggest less importance. This visual differentiation helps teams focus on the most crucial elements.
- Flexible and Adaptable: The 3D setup can be easily adjusted to reflect new priorities or changes in project parameters. Different colored tokens or markers can be added to signify specific interests, perspectives, or project elements.
Benefits
- Enhanced Visual Understanding: By seeing relationships, hierarchies, and priorities visually, teams can better understand complex information.
- Facilitates Discussion: The visual nature of the method helps facilitate conversations, making it easier to address complex interactions between topics.
- Reduces Complexity: The method simplifies complicated projects by breaking them down into visual elements, reducing cognitive load.
- Engaging and Interactive: Unlike traditional methods, this approach encourages active participation and engagement, making workshops and meetings more dynamic.
- Adaptability: It can be adjusted easily to reflect changes, ensuring that the project’s visual representation stays relevant.
Use Cases
"3D Welten" is especially useful for:
- Project Planning and Review: Visualizing project stages and priorities.
- Team-Building: Helping team members understand each other’s perspectives by creating a shared visual context.
- Problem-Solving: Structuring complex problems to identify priorities and relationships.
- Strategy Development: Laying out strategies in a tangible way that allows for better evaluation and adaptation.
This method goes beyond traditional flat presentation tools like flip charts or whiteboards by creating an engaging and memorable experience that helps teams navigate complex topics with clarity.
