Barrier Resolution	What are the issues or barriers which could prevent your collaboration from fully attaining its intended outcomes? What hidden barriers are preventing you from achieving your desired results? Barrier Resolution is a straightforward and powerful three-step process for safely and fully surfacing the issues and dynamics present, and designing valid mitigations. Barrier Resolution provides a safe way for all participants in an activity to contribute their views, thoughts, and opinions - particularly those that are difficult to discuss in the regular business environment - in order to optimize the activity's outcome. By leveraging our private, web-based SP/Solve™ software to surface issues and directly transform them into solutions - which in most cases become innovations to the existing business processes and relationships - maximum commitment to the activity can be created or restored.
Rich Scorecard Assembly	While almost everyone in business will agree that scorecards are conceptually and logically the right way to proceed, in practice they are often burdensome and time-consuming. Using SP/Perform™, SchellingPoint's lightweight, fully-featured web-based scorecard management tool, an existing template can be adapted to the client's unique situation, or the goals, objectives, and indicators of success endorsed during an Alignment Assessment can be imported. Solutions designed using SP/Solve can also be imported and therefore the scorecard accommodates the unique programs designed for that activity. SP/Perform allows any project, initiative, program or relationship to enjoy the management power of a right-sized scorecard. The difference from traditional scorecards, beyond the speed and completeness of assembly, is that the ability-to-execute is designed in when driven by the inputs from SP/Align and SP/Solve.
Team Compatibility Analysis	Successful execution in business is controlled by several relationship dynamics, of which the three most essential are: The ability to produce and remain in alignment The ability to collaborate fully and to discuss difficult topics as well as the easy ones The ability to balance the need to act on decisions and to progress down new paths with the appropriate levels of path selection and rigor In commercial operations success rarely comes from 'me', but rather from all of 'us'. As a complement to individual assessment tools, the Team Compatibility Analysis (TCA) uses SP/Team™ to provide team members with an explanation as to the group's abilities and challenges with alignment, collaboration and decision-making based upon the intersect of members' individual styles. The intent is not to suggest to individuals how to change their behavior but to inform the group of proactive measures it can take to be most effective in coordinating their actions - thus maximizing the sustainability of their collaboration and diminishing rework.
