The temptation is to make a visioning script too long. Twenty minutes is probably too long; 15 is preferable. Inexperienced practitioners tend to rush visualizations, perhaps because they are uncomfortable or are being hurried along by others. It’s important to provide enough time without losing your participants in the future! It’s often difficult to keep calm when those who are uncomfortable with this way of working seek either to help or to sabotage our efforts. In a corporate visioning process for an organization experiencing a great deal of stress in a highly competitive environment, Yollana and I developed a script that allowed staff to experience working collaboratively and with confidence. In a room of 40 people sitting with their eyes closed, I looked up from my script to see the manager giving me the ‘wind-up’ signal. I glanced at Yollana, who shrugged her shoulders. I ignored the manager. The next time I looked up, the manager was standing outside speaking on her mobile telephone!
