Sharpening the decision. Setting up the dialogue together.
Beforehand we analyse your situation and develop a first proposal for the questions, the hypotheses, the stakeholder group and the way people take part.
In the workshop we sharpen the concept with you and record the six assumptions per question that the dialogue is to test.
Afterwards we work the dialogue concept into final form. You decide whether a pilot dialogue or a dialogue mandate follows.
The concept is yours, even if no dialogue follows.
Scope and fixed price are agreed before we start.
Experience the Idea Duel on a real decision.
A clearly limited run on one question from the workshop.
It shows which arguments your stakeholders support, which assumptions hold up under scrutiny and which topics have not reached you so far.
We write the communication, moderate the dialogue and present the ranking together with a results report.
Scope and fixed price are agreed before we start.
Running the dialogue in full.
We run the dialogue with your stakeholders, moderate it, analyse the results and present them to you.
You receive priorities, consensus, a decision matrix, blind spots, segment analyses and a comprehensive report for your executive board, your governing body or the public.
The scope depends on the number of questions, the size of the stakeholder group, the segmentation you want and the languages.
Before we start, you receive a proposal with a binding cost ceiling.
A basis for comparison, for everyone who needs to decide regularly.
For organisations that prepare decisions repeatedly and want to observe change over time.
We repeat dialogues at fixed intervals or whenever a decision calls for one. This gives you a development over time.
Because the concept, the activation and the question structure are already in place, every follow-up dialogue costs less.
You set the standard yourself, before we start.
In the strategy workshop you record six assumptions that you expect for each question.
We feed them in anonymously, indistinguishable from the contributions of your stakeholders.
At the end there is a complete ranking, often several hundred ideas and arguments. Whether your knowledge doubles is measured against the top ten.
There we guarantee you at least five topics that were not on your radar. Measured as an average across all questions. If we do not achieve that, we do not send an invoice.
You keep the complete analysis in every case.
No consultant commits in advance to how much new ground they will cover. We do, and we put our fee behind it.
What it takes on your side
Three hours in the workshop. One sign-off on the communication. Everything else is ours, from moderation through to the report. Your participants need ten minutes. We can be ready to start within 48 hours.
Open questions and the hypotheses to be tested.
Texts and communication concept for your stakeholders.
With your logo, in your design.
For three weeks, with no effort for you.
So the dialogue stays factual and safe.
Visible daily, which topics dominate.
By the criteria you define.
One results report per question and one one pager.
Ready for your stakeholders.
























Do we end up with a wish list?
No, because nobody can only wish.
Every participant has to choose between two contributions, a hundred times over
What ends up at the top has prevailed against everything else, and you see how many people stand behind it
What if too few take part?
Communication is half the battle, and it is our job.
We do not invite people to a survey. We put into words what is at stake, specific to your question
From experience we know what works
For participants it takes ten minutes, anonymously and at any time of day
Are you a software or a consultancy?
A consultancy with its own instrument.
We take on the work from the question to the basis for decision
Like a classic consultancy we hold conversations and analyse them. We just hold a thousand at once, digitally
You acquire no licence and set nothing up
Can we see this beforehand?
Yes. We show you a completed dialogue with real results.
In the twenty-minute intro call we go through your question
If a dialogue does not serve your decision-making, we tell you
What sets the Idea Duel apart from a survey?
In a survey, people tick your predefined answers.
In the Idea Duel they write their own
Everyone else weighs them in direct comparison
That is how you also learn what nobody would have asked about
