SolutionsMapping helps leaders of sustainability & resilience initiatives unlock the power of tacit knowledge so that they can create high-impact, highly-effective solutions for people and the planet.

We help you gain access to the deep knowledge, know-how and insights of your team, your stakeholders and subject matter experts so that the solutions you design are adaptive and smart. Working together we integrate multi-disciplinary knowledge and know-how into one visual knowledge model so that everyone can see the forest and the trees – the big picture and the details of how everything connects.

The visual knowledge is your SolutionsMap – a tool for sense-making and meaning-making. A tool for team and stakeholder alignment. A tool for integrating local knowledge with institutional knowledge. A tool for capacity building. Because of the clarity it provides, your SolutionsMap can be used as a decision-support tool.

Your SolutionsMap enables you & your team to deliver smarter, more effective – and more cost effective – solutions because you will “get it right the first time” and avoid costly errors, false starts, and “redos”.

Level I Knowledge Capture for Inter-disciplinary Teams is a productive cost-effective way to experience the power and clarity you gain from involving your team or workgroup to capture, and reach consensus on, their collective knowledge in relation to a Focus Question of importance to the team.
