Turn 'too many ideas' into one clear plan

A day with your senior team. With the evidence to back the decision.

In-person 'first move' workshop

First Move

Concrete next steps in a day £1,500+VAT

Most innovation meetings end up circular. Real prioritisation needs structured criteria and the right people in one room.

First Move brings together two of Thunk’s most experienced partners and up to ten of your senior team, turning competing ideas into one ranked plan, backed by evidence instead of opinion.

All in one working day.

For when the room can't agree which idea to back

Backlog overload

A pile of good ideas, no clear way to pick the right one.

Stakeholder split

Different views on where to invest next, no shared criteria.

AI mandate

A new direction from the top, no consensus on the first step.

BAU squeeze

Pressure to innovate while keeping the day job running.

The day, in two sessions

Morning

9:30am - 12:30pm

Set the stakes

Agree what we're actually trying to decide.

Open the field

Six to ten opportunities on the table.

Score against criteria

A shared scoring model and every opportunity rated against it, no more competing gut feelings.

Afternoon

1:30pm - 5:00pm

Pick the top two or three

Shortlist with rationale and decision confidence.

Map the blockers

The constraints that quietly derail good ideas.

Plan the first 30 days

Concrete next steps on the winner.

Outcome

A named decision, its blockers mapped, and a 30-day plan the team can start on Monday.

So much research underpinned their challenge that the project decided to take it on. It helped narrow the scope, so we could deploy limited resources for the highest impact possible.
