(No) Canvas
Although I am usually posting in German it feels unpolite as my sources are in English.
I recently discovered the Problem Framing Canvas of the Griffith Centre for Systems Innovation.
Very interesting and exciting – but not a canvas.
The setting is intelligent and picks up various concepts such as 5-Whys, Framing, How might we or working with hypothesis and validation – but it is is not a canvas.
A canvas offers us room for projection. We can project our topic on a canvas. Here we are having disjoint single fields of a formula. Although the concept is still inspiring, it is not a canvas.
Closest to a canvas ist he first box in the second row: Draw out the problem – create a rich picture.
Yes, that ist the idea of a canvas. Fields on a canvas are just ledger lines. They want to help us to draw a picture, but here weh have a checklist or a survey.
Still ok, but not a canvas.
Is there a relation between the Cynefin-diagram and working hypothesis? Why are we talking of 3 hyothesis? Not 2 or 5? This scheme seems to be arbitrarily.
Within a canvas we do have the freedom to draw over ledger lines, move objectives or connect objects.
So no canvas.
But still a recommendation.
