Unleash is a program where 1,000 talents from all over the world came together to create real, scalable solutions to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
In 2018, it was held in Singapore. The talents goes through a facilitated process of innovation, uniquely tailored by UNLEASH and Deloitte. They form teams and work together on various solutions to solve the SDGs.
There is a very interesting approach brought by Unleash.
Here are a few things which I like about Unleash 2018.
1) Very Structured Program.
The program has a very detailed playbook on how to:
a) Form Teams.
b) Create Journey Map
c) Frame the Problem
d) Brainstorm Solution
e) Prototype
f) Test
g) Implementation
2) There is also a “Gate” structure built in to allow facilitators and experts to validate the different phases of the teams. I like this way of validation as it is easy to have the wrong problem or solution when there is lack of experience. Validation is a good way to move between phases so the teams can get feedback and iterate for better insights and understanding.
