What does a wrong decision cost?
More than the dialogue that would have prevented it. Someone saw it coming. But nobody told you.
What you don't hear still has a say.
In surveys, you tick what has been pre-specified.
Everyone answers alone. The result: averages and free text in the appendix.
Likes measure popularity.
They say nothing about what matters.
Workshops bring depth, for the twelve people in the room.
Everyone else stays silent.
Hierarchies filter a little at every level.
What arrives at the top is the tame version.
Large gatherings belong to the loudest.
The sharpest minds are rarely the loudest voices.
What holds up? What gets overlooked? What comes first?
A workshop with everyone at the same time.
1. Everyone contributes what they think. Their own words instead of checkboxes and scales. Anonymously, including for thoughts that otherwise never reach the top.
2. Everyone weighs up what is stronger. Every contribution competes against every other one on equal footing. See two contributions, choose the stronger one. One click, a few seconds, a thousand times over.
3. Everyone confirms what holds true. Duel by duel, a ranking of the ideas and arguments capable of winning a majority emerges. Including ones that nobody had on their radar.
4. You learn what nobody else tells you.

Before we start, you name six arguments you expect. You receive the complete ranking of all contributions. If at least five of the ten strongest are ones you did not name, we have at least doubled your knowledge. Otherwise you pay nothing.
The Idea Duel. Four worlds.
We develop the questions that are tested. We provide the communication you use to invite your stakeholders. We moderate daily and present you with the ranking.
