Sensemaking Session
Complex sustainability challenges resist simple analysis. Sensemaking helps teams work together to create shared understanding of ambiguous situations, building the collective intelligence needed for wise action. When to use: When the team faces complex, ambiguous sustainability challenges, when different people see the situation very differently, when decisions feel confusing.
