Protocol Overview and Instructions: 
​
Speedboat is a short and sweet way to identify what your employees or clients don 't like about your product/service or what' s standing in the way of a desired goal. As individuals trying to build forward momentum on products or projects we sometimes have blind spots regarding what' s stopping us. This game lets you get insight from stakeholders about what they think may be an obstacle to progress. 


Speedboat Protocol Instructions

​

Educator Thoughts:
​
​This was a great protocol for students to thinking about things that are weighing them down and then work together to find a creative solution to bring their anchor back up. The visual was helpful for learners.


“This was a great visual for a reflection conversation- they know that they boat won’t go as fast when the anchor is going. Things get in our way…but that doesn’t mean we give up”

Student Quote:
​
​“This was awesome, I really liked the boat and talking about what to do next.”
