Chapter 12: Making it Work: Implementation

Summary:

We are now into the third and final stage of the 3-I pattern of effective decision-making and implementation, implementation.

Investigation -> Interpretation -> Implementation

The important behaviours to develop for this stage are:

  • Consensuality
  • Communication
  • Accountability

And we saw that it was the Synergist’s job to draw out these behaviours from the V,O and P in the group rather than let them retreat to their natural stance.

The resources for this chapter will help you assess your team’s strength in the implementation stage, create an action plan to improve that help your team stay focussed on the right stage in the process at the right time.

FLASHCARDS: 3-I Flashcards

Cut out these flashcards and give them to everyone in your team. Have everyone display the appropriate flashcard when you are in that phase of the process.

Eg When you are investigating have everyone display the investigation card.

Only when everyone has agreed that you can move on to the next phase should you do so. At the same time have everyone display the appropriate card for that phase
