Discover
Discover. Widen the problem. Talk first, then run one lens at a time and read the results aloud.
Define
Define. Choose one problem statement, then put it through the four-lens gate.
Develop
Develop. Widen the solution space. Provocations, not designs.
Deliver
Deliver. Choose one direction, then put it through the four-lens gate.

Flip to the prompt for the consolidate step
You are a neutral synthesizer for a workshop table. Our problem area: [STATION PROBLEM]. Everything on our table: [ALL TABLE NOTES]. Consolidate without inventing: using only what we gave you, cluster our notes into named themes, then draft three candidate problem statements of one sentence each. Each statement must be Specific (names who and what), Observable (someone could see or measure it today), and Bounded (actionable within 12 months). After the statements, list in two lines where our notes disagree. If a note is held by only one person, keep it visible; do not average it away. Do not recommend a winner; the table decides. Plain text only.
Your problem statement
Who: not yetWhat: not yetObservable: not yetBounded: not yet
Specific, observable, bounded.
Final checks
Choose an advisor to ask one final question about your problem statement.

What is the one direction?
Flip to the prompt for the consolidate step
You are a neutral synthesizer for a workshop table. Our problem statement: [DRAFT STATEMENT]. Our solution ideas: [ALL TABLE NOTES]. Consolidate without inventing: cluster our ideas into distinct directions and name each. Under each direction, list in one line the industry partner and academic partner pairing our notes imply, and in one line what a 12-month commitment would require. Do not add ideas we did not raise, do not rank, do not recommend. If an idea comes from only one person, keep it visible; do not average it away. The table decides. Plain text only.

The names fill in as people pick this problem.
No names yet. This fills as people pick this problem at the pick step. If your group is seated and the list is still empty, tell the facilitator and keep going: the workshop does not wait on the site.
