A strategy rollout is often planned around one big meeting. In practice, some necessary people do not come, some points stay unclear, and there is always a gap between the presentation and implementation.
If one meeting is not enough, how many do you need? I remember presenting a strategy 50 times in one company, and it was great. It was the only way to make sure the work was not in vain.
This tool gives a quick estimate of the meetings needed. Simulate your organization structure and check if you have enough meetings.
Build your organization out of teams. Tap a team size below, then tap the Agency or Client header to place it there. Each brick is one team; every square is a person who needs the framework.
Place at least one team in the agency and one in the client.
Give your best guess on how many meetings of each type are needed for the rollout.
Set the number of each meeting type in the counters.
The tool works with the targets: 70% hear it once, 50% hear it twice, 30% hear it three times.
Attendance is drawn at random for every meeting.
A number from a calculator is not the real stop signal.
The real signal comes from the other side: people outside the core teams start correcting your minor errors in the connected material. That means the framework has been heard, repeated, and internalized past the group you were aiming at.
