Your goal is to complete a plan for your project.

1. Organise a meeting with all your team members.

2. Beforehand, ask each member to think of all the actions that will be required to create the value you have defined for your customers, in your value proposition.

3. Draw a picture similar to the following on a wide sheet of paper. Display it on a wall and tell team members that the goal of the meeting is to reach agreement concerning specific tasks, required to create value for your customers.

4. Write the tasks to be discussed in the first column.

5. Go through every project and agree on the action required to accomplish it, recording this on sticky notes.

6. Based on the projects and action you have listed, agree a timeline and write the milestones in days, weeks, or months along the top row.

7. Assign responsibility for projects and actions to individual team members.

8. As you post the sticky notes, ask yourselves challenging questions about your plan: Does this have to happen first? Can we combine these two actions? Do actions in one project affect the progress or outcome of another?
