Brainstorming - Wonder, Invention, Discernment
Brainstorming meetings involve generating ideas, where wonder, invention, and discernment play key roles. Wonder prompts questions, invention provides solutions, and discernment evaluates ideas. While brainstorming is engaging for WID geniuses, GE&T geniuses may find it less exciting. Understanding each genius's contribution enhances brainstorming effectiveness.
Decision Making - Discernment with Some Ideation and Galvanizing
Decision-making meetings mainly involve discernment but may include elements of ideation and galvanizing. Discernment evaluates options, ideation introduces new perspectives, and galvanizing helps unify decisions and engage others. Having the right mix of geniuses improves decision-making efficiency and clarity of direction.
Launch - Galvanizing, With Enablement and Discernment
Launch meetings focus on initiating projects with galvanizing at the forefront, supported by enablement and discernment.
