Getting Grounded

Before we move into reflection, we’ll take a few moments to breathe together. This practice helps us arrive fully in the space, reset our energy, and open up to deeper listening and insight.

Design Group Time

Feedback Exchange

Take in all of the designs; give feedback to strengthen each recommendation

“Alone, we can do so little; together, we can do so much.”

- Helen Keller

By the End...

Each design group will have filled flip charts with feedback from their peer teams.

this design would be stronger if...

what works well about this plan? what do you like? what should be kept in future iterations?

what assumptions do we make that enable success?

Gallery Walk

Step 1:

Review a peer design. On sticky notes, share your feedback (one idea/sticky) in the given categories. Repeat for each design.

Remember - this is about making all recommendations as strong as possible.
