Collaborative, engaging and outcome-focused team meetings

A collaborative and unifying way to create effective strategies.

Develop clear vision statements and behaviours that are aligned with your organisational values to build an effective team culture. By being able to safely share strategies without bias, the team can prioritise and discuss what are the most important, rating them based on the level of impact, how it can be achieved or the degree of change needed.

Deep dive conversations allow you to really flesh out strategies and create realistic actions that everyone has visibility to and become vested in. Break down your vision into relevant mission statements that can be realised, or prioritise key behaviours for your organisation and create signature behaviours that represent this.

Continuous improvement with engaging effective retros

Build great teams, achieve sprint goals and explore potential opportunities with a range of retrospective meeting templates that quickly bring teams together in an engaging way. GroupMap has simple and quick templates that let people easily share their ideas and prioritise the key points for discussion. Action items can be created as you go with due dates and owners.

Retrospective templates include the agile retrospective, 4L’s, start-stop continue, DAKI, starfish and many more. You can also create your own unique set of questions that fit your team culture to include shout outs, appreciations and gifts. GroupMap also includes a quick polling tool that lets you check in on team health.

Bring people along the journey of change

In order to effectively create change, you need to include stakeholders in the journey and manage the transition. Templates like the force-field analysis, conflict map or value proposition canvas help with your consultation process to ensure ideas and perspectives are shared, discussed and agreed upon in taking next steps. Ideas can be anonymous to allow for more honest responses and you can assess current buy-in to see if people are aligned.

GroupMap helps you reveal perspectives that may not have been seen, harness feedback and build support for changes and to build appropriate transition policies. By giving people a voice, helping them understand the need and to manage the change in a collaborative, consultative way.

Focus on strategy, not sticky notes.

From SWOT analysis templates to creating a strategy template to a PEST analysis, GroupMap’s range of customisable strategy planning templates brings a space for ideas to be shared, explored and discussed.

Whether at the business unit, department or organisational level, GroupMap lets your team work together to identify strategies linked to goals and objectives. Categorise strategies, prioritise by level of impact or difficulty and add “meat to the bone” with deep dive discussions.

Clear, evidence-based decision making

Need to choose a new vendor, project or program? GroupMap lets your team rate each alternative against criteria (weighted or unweighted) across multiple dimensions along with comments to bring clarity, evidence and efficiency to the group decision making process. Use perceptual sliders or scoring mechanisms that also captures comments to help evaluate a range of alternatives with criteria that you can set. GroupMap automatically tallies up and calculates the results and provides you with the data for making evidence-based decisions.

Identify the risks, rate them and discuss effective mitigation strategies.

Create a risk map based on the level of impact and likelihood for your project, company or strategy to adequately address t. Identify risks, position on the chart and discuss strategies that can be put in place to mitigate and address them. This becomes a collaborative exercise that builds accountability and helps teams better manage risks.
