What was the impact?

Championed Systems
Thinking

Helped each team see the upstream and downstream impacts of their work on BOTH customers and neighboring teams

Shifted from Reaction
to Proactive Prevention

Uncovered leading indicators of customer friction and aligned teams around early intervention strategies

Established Single Source
of Truth

Integrated direct links to team workflows to ensure accuracy, ownership, and up-to-date resources all in one hub
how we approached each stage

Iterative 4 Step Framework

Extracting
artifacts

01

We treated documentation like a living reference: continuously requesting and reviewing everything from internal documentation to previous deliverables, to make sure each iteration of our map only became more grounded in truth.

Revising &
Reframing

02

With each new nugget of information, we revisited our model to pressure-test our hypotheses and refine it with fresh data.

Sometimes this meant adding milestones; other times, it required dismantling the entire structure to better represent the evolving reality.

Driving client
alignment

03

Each week, we held "micro-reviews" with our client’s main contact to share progress, gather feedback, and plan next steps. This created a constant stream of transparency, encouraged co-creation and client ownership, and provided guardrails for validating vision alignment at every step.

Co-writing with
Stakeholders

04

Our stakeholders were the authors, and we were the copywriters. To best capture their internal teams' experience, we leaned heavily into a constant loop of feedback and co-creation. We captured their stories and asked for both synchronous and asynchronous feedback on each hypotheses we had to ensure they felt accurately reflected in the map.
