What is the tool about?
The Readiness Toolkit is used to structure the discussion of defining a way forward for a transition path building on the results of the conducted Readiness Assessment. You should therefore, prior to this exercise, have finished Circular Readiness Assessments on the ready2LOOP platform.
The valuable outcome
Prioritisation of which focus area to proceed with to craft your transition path.
Preparation for use
Preparation time: 1 hour
Competencies involved: Business development, business innovation, innovation management, organisational change management.
Tool kit: Print (A3) as many downloadable Prioritisation Matrix as there are groups (3-5 per group). Also, print and cut out the Readiness Dimension Bricks (A4) relevant for your layer.
Make sure to have made a readiness assessment before starting this exercise.
The steps to take
Step 1: This is the readiness prioritisation exercise where you will set your focus for your circular transition. Prior to this prioritisation exercise, your team should have conducted the Circular Readiness Assessment on the ready2LOOP platform.
Step 2: Identify the layer relevant for your organisation and print the dimension bricks. The Readiness Dimensions represent the key business areas for starting the transition to Circular Economy.
Step 3: Next, check out the Prioritisation Matrix and familiarise yourself with the scales (download it from the tool page). Choose a suitable timescale for working with Circular Economy in your organisation. Insert the time values on the horizontal axis.
Step 4: One by one, discuss and place each of the Readiness Dimension Bricks on the matrix based on how important it is to start working on and how soon this should be done. This can be done in several groups or in one group.
Step 5: When all Dimension Bricks are placed, document the team-decision with a photo of the Prioritisation Matrix. It is further recommended to add notes on the post its during the exercise.
Step 6: If more than one group have filled-out a prioritisation matrix, compare, consolidate and discuss priorities with the other group(s), and decide on a final priority. This priority will be the kickstart of your transition path.
