Unlocking Alignment and Action: How to Run an Effective Inception Workshop
When launching a new project or initiative, teams often struggle with misalignment, unclear priorities, and slow decision-making. An Inception Workshop provides a structured approach to defining a project’s core ideas and goals, ensuring teams start with clarity and alignment.
Join Xiaodan Wang, a seasoned design and tech leader, for an insightful webinar on how to design and facilitate an Inception Workshop that fosters collaboration and accelerates execution.
In this webinar, you will learn how to:
-
Define the purpose of an Inception Workshop and why it’s valuable for cross-functional teams
-
Structure key discussions to clarify scope and align priorities
-
Facilitate decision-making that turns workshop insights into concrete action
Whether you’re in product, design, engineering, marketing, or leadership, you’ll walk away with practical strategies to apply this framework in your own organization. A live Q&A will follow, and a recording of the webinar will be shared after the event.
