This scenario could be an action step that the problem presenter takes after the team has agreed on the problem. I could also see it being a way to facilitate questions about the relationships between elements in the mindmap. In any case, I would ask the team if the team wanted to proceed with the next steps, but ensure that the rules of action learning are followed thereafter.

I would ask the team about the 2 ground rules of Action Learning and how they plan to apply the mind mapping method while complying to the ground rules.

During an action learning session, visualization of the problem can be enlightening to arrive at solutions. If the team agrees to this and does not distract from the process we are working on, this can be used as a supplement.

From one side, it is highly important to follow to the gound rules. From another side, it can be used as a supplement, but in a way not to distract the AL process. For example, during the partm when the partcipants are asked to formulate the problem for later coming to an agreement or not, the participants can also draw the mind mapping re the problem. However, the coach should allocate the extra time for it.

Each additional action, the use of additional tools by the group in order to lead it to a solution – will be a plus. It is important not to forget two key principles in AL.

– What is the impact of creating mind maps?
– What will happen to the group if we create a mind map?
– What will the group decide to do next?

I would intervene by saying “Team, let’s have your team member explain what mind mapping is. Then, you as a team can decide whether you would like to use it during this session. If the team decides to use mind mapping. I’d ask the team “Team, what guideline would you suggest the team follow to ensure the 2 rules of AL is followed while enjoying the advantage of mind mapping?” After the response, I would say “Great! Let’s follow the guildine that you just came up with”.

When this comes-up I would ask each member for agreement and head-nods to using this mind mapping technique. Then if they are in agreement, I would ask “For how long they would like to work using this technique?” Then I would ask “How will the team keep track of their time during the mind mapping technique?” Finally, I would ask the group, “Who has the first question for our mind mapping leader?” This last question, is geared at trying to keep the group doing the mind mapping technique while still following the action learning rules. I would hope this sets up the team to ask the mind mapping leader to explain the process and how they participate. Hopefully, then the mind mapping leader ask the team if they have any questions. If not, then I may jump into and ask.. “As we are learning a new tool, does any have any question for our mind map leader?” I am still coming from a perspective where I am facilitating learning for the team even during this mind mapping exercise.
