I’m going to make you a professional mapper
Wardley Mapping is like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
When you use it for yourself or in a small group of mappers, the conversation flows, the benefits show up, and u feel you are thriving.
Suddenly you try to use it outside that safe space, and the worst face of Wardley Mapping is shown.
Nobody understands the model, there is frustration in the workshops and u ended pointed by promoting something that is seen as counterproductive.
That’s not all
You are surrounded by consultant firms and providers telling you what to do, while they do not see the whole picture of the context. They solve single complicated problems, but they do not tackle the complex problem you have.
You have pressure to solve these challenges ASAP, and Wardley Mapping seem to have some answers, but that’s not enough.
Wardley Mapping is a complex model, you have learn about it, but there’s no way to learn how to use it, so when thinking about using it in your organization you do not want to expose yourself to show something that cannot be immediately understood and you are seen as a promoter of an useless tool. Your reputation is being exposed.
Wardley Mapping is a pragmatic way to do strategy. Years looking for something like this and now it’s in front of you. There should be a good way to use it in my organization.
We have been there
