Talk description
Title:
Deep Democratic software modelling where no knowledge goes to waste.
Short synopsis:
The power of collaborative modelling comes from having a diverse group of people who, together, have a lot of wisdom and knowledge. You would expect that all this knowledge will be put to use co-creating and to design a model. In reality, we don’t actually listen to all the available input and perspectives due to cognitive biases and ranking. Because not everything that needs to be said has been said, we will end up with a sub-optimal model. Even worse, people won’t feel part of the solution and won’t commit to it fully. There’s a risk they will start to react with sabotaging behaviour; from sarcastic jokes to verbal and nonverbal toxic behaviour or even ending up not willing to talk or even leave the session. Join me in this talk where we will explore how we can improve our facilitation skills and focus on neuro inclusiveness. We will dive into techniques from Liberating Structures, Anthropology and Deep Democracy the Lewis Method. We will demonstrate how you can combine these inclusive techniques with well known collaborative modelling tools like EventStorming, Example Mapping, Impact Mapping, and User Story Mapping. We will let you leave with the knowledge on how to observe sabotage behaviour, battle suppression, and to create safety in exploring alternative models. We will show you how you can really let the group say what needs to be said and take a collective autocratic decision in designing your software models.
