the model: scan, focus, act model

The
model may be employed as a design template or a diagnostic tool.
Design Template
Facilitators and Transition Managers both use Scan Focus Act as a
quick way to design events like DesignShop¨ processes. Keep in mind
the six strategies--it may be advantageous to open a DesignShop event
with an Act exercise, and then step back into Scan.
Usually DesignShop events have the goal of taking the participants
through one complete cycle of the model. Typically day 1 is Scan,
day 2 Focus and day 3 Act. Additionally, each day represents one complete
cycle, recalling the fractal nature of the model. Any project can
be designed using the model as a template. Most Enterprises have certain
stages they like and ones they don't. Some can't stand to Scan, for
instance.
Using the model as a template forces the designers and planners to
build in a proper Scan. It brings some discipline to the effort.
Diagnostic Tool
The model can also be used in after-action reviews to look for holes
or gaps in the planning and implementation process.
