Document Your New Design

The general who wins the battle makes many calculations in his temple before the battle is fought. --Sun Tzu

Document the latest version of your redesign in an activity flowchart.  Omit details about who will do which tasks.  That information will come later.  For now, you want to present a relatively simple version of the process to stakeholders to invite their feedback and ideas.

Present the new activity flowchart--along with information about how you generated ideas for the proposed process--to key stakeholders.  These stakeholders will likely include your manager as well as others in the company who would be affected by the changed process.

ACTION POINT: Plan your changes and clarify them by writing them out.
