Distribute one dot sticker of each of three colors to each participant, Red is five points, Yellow is three, Blue is one 2. Post list of options 3. Ask participants to place their red sticker on the area they feel most strongly about and the other two in decreasing order of priority 4. Tabulate the scores Tips: 1.

Okay to vote on individual ideas or categories – be clear when giving the directions 9 Workshop_Facilitaton_Tools Updated April 2023 GoFast!Dot Voting Tool Gallery of Issues Topic 1 Topic 2 10 Workshop_Facilitaton_Tools Updated April 2023 GoFast!In the Frame/Out of the Frame What is it? In the Frame/Out of the Frame is used to clarify the scope of the group’s initiative. It helps leaders and group members define parameters of what is in and outofbounds for the meeting or project as well as to sort ideas and identify those that fit within the scope of work. This gives guidance and direction for where the group should spend its time and energy. Why use it? This tool is useful during the scoping phase and at the beginning of the first working session to: 1. Enable the leader to define the initiative/project 2. Provide a framework for the group to clarify expectations and boundaries 3. Identify and/or clarify parameters of what is in/outofbounds related to this session 4. Look at aspects and plexities of an issue from different perspectives 5. Clarify the team charter and expectations Steps: 1. Draw a large square picture frame on a flip chart (or use tape on a wall) or on a large white board。 the frame represents the problem or issue that needs to be resolved 2. Explain we need to identify what falls inside the boundaries of the project and what falls outside 3. After reviewing the initiative and its objectives with the group, the leader and group members identify what is inscope and outofscope by identifying significant details or aspects of the issue 4. Discuss each idea and agree whether it is in or outofscope before placing it inside the frame for inscope items, outsidetheframe for outofscope items, and ontheframe for those items which need clarification 5. Discuss the ontheframe items once all the ideas have been reviewed 6. If there are any significant issues, details, or aspects that may be different from the discussions between the group leader, resolve them before working on a solution 11 Workshop_Facilitaton_Tools Updated April 2023 GoFast!In the Frame/Out of the Frame, continued Tips: 1. Using the aspects of the issue generated, ask the group where each falls。 engage in further discussion on ontheframe items 2. Leaders should think through possible examples of what is in/outofscope ahead of time 3. The leader may have to assert his/her view on what is and is not inthescope of the initiative。 group members may not all be in agreement 4. Keeping the scope focused increases the chance of successful implementation 5. Go to the appropriate level of detail on each issue or idea that passes through the frame 6. Remember to get consensus on what is in and outofframe 12 Workshop_Facilitaton_Tools Updated April 2023 GoFast!In the Frame/Out of the Frame Tool Instructions: 1. Have the leader and group list all potential aspects/ponents (., end results, timeframe, product lines, geographic, anizations/groups involved) of the initiative using postit notes 2. As a total group, place each idea either intheframe, outsidetheframe, or ontheframe (if uncertainty or disagreement exists) 3. Discuss ―ontheframe‖ items in more detail to reach agreement 4. Review the group’s understanding of the scope with the appropriate leaders 13 Workshop_Facilitaton_Tools Updated April 2023 GoFast!Fishbone What is it? Fishbone helps a group analyze causes of an issue or problem in a systematic way. Why use it? When group members are asked to determine the various causes for the problem/issue and remend solutions with action plans to address them, this tool is useful for detailing logical connections contributing to the larger problem/issue. It can also help the group prioritize the most likely causes and identify root causes. It categorizes and provides an open systems framework for discussing the problem. Steps: 1. Build the fishbone diagram on the wall using masking tape or draw on flip charts 2. Clarify and validate the problem with the group 3. Ask group members to identify things that are causing this problem through small group discussion or working in pairs 4. Collect their input and display the individual causes on the fishbone 5. Ask group members to cluster causes in ―related clusters‖ 6. Test for a logical connection with the problem and label each cluster 7. Select one cluster at a time to focus on for the next step of solution generation to eliminate these causes Tips: 1. Make sure that the causes are not symptoms 2. Take time to agree o
