30 Collective Decidement Projects for Innovation and Transformation

A collection of focused projects for discovering meaningful opportunities, diversifying ideas, evaluating innovation concepts, and scaling change. Each project activates collective intelligence across the organization and its ecosystem so that innovation and transformation decisions are grounded in real needs, evidence, and implementation conditions.

01

Prototypes, Pilots, and Learning

16What is the smallest prototype that could test the solution's most important assumption?

Project task: Contribute ideas on the simplest prototype format, target situation, and interaction that would provide sufficient evidence about the critical assumption.

Digital Transformation and Artificial Intelligence Adoption

21Which tasks should be digitized or automated, and where is human judgment essential?

Project task: Contribute ideas on task characteristics, exceptions, risks, and the value of human judgment so the boundaries of technology use can be set responsibly.

The catalog helps identify a starting point

The project questions do not promise a predetermined answer. They precisely define a shared challenge that requires knowledge distributed across different parts of the organization.

How many people take part?

The practical minimum for one problem area is eight participants with relevant knowledge. The method is most reliable with 15–20 or more people whose experience and expertise complement one another.

Which question should be addressed first?

In a short conversation, we can assess the situation, identify the right participant group, and determine how the project fits into a broader decision-making sequence.
