Reflection – Visualization

Challenge

I am a member of my organization’s management department. Me and

my team were working on the steps that need to be taken to increase our  business and presenting them to our investors. We had created a proper  presentation on how we were going to upgrade our marketing strategy and  also on how to develop and maintain relationships with our customers as well.  Just explaining these steps would not be of any help, so in order to help the  investors get a better idea we worked on the presentations, graphs, future  planning etc.

Selection

It made our work easy as we were sure of what we had planned to

presenting them and were confident about it as well. Our team has gone  through several design thinking activities and tools as well. Learning about  design thinking helped us understand on how to implement these things for  success. We also had heard about how this tool of design thinking helped  many great businesses achieve success.

Application

We made use of charts, tables, graphs and dashboards. This tool helped

us to keep the investors attention glued to us. Also this gave them a better  understanding of what we were going to do, how we are going to do and what  is going to be the result of taking these steps. The investors agreed with us and  gave us a go for implementing these steps.

Insight

This approach using visualization gave us a broader perspective of how

to achieve things differently to get better outputs. It also made our work easier  by creating a better environment. We also implemented brainstorming which  helped us share ideas and what can be achieved by implementing design  thinking. There was even better co-operation and collaboration between the  team. Design thinking helped us in achieving the team’s goal. In short design  thinking worked for us in a completely astonishing way.

Approach

Next time we would implement some different strategies, for different

goals in order to achieve them. Visualization is a great tool and we will  continue using it and working on it even more and try upgrading it in more  ways. We would probably even use the tool of storytelling which may help in  visualization as well.
