Matrix

Concept mapping go-zone: importance and feasibility

Sort every rated statement into four zones for action

Matrix of importance against feasibility for group concept mapping ratings, with the go-zone of important and feasible actions highlighted.
Plot every statement by importance and feasibility, then start in the top right

A two-by-two matrix for reading group concept mapping ratings in a programme review. Statements rated above average for both importance and feasibility fall in the go-zone and make the first actions, while important but hard items become long-term goals. Programme teams can use it to turn a concept map into an action plan. Koji can test the go-zone statements with the whole cohort through AI interviews.

What's in this matrix

Vertical axis: Importance (Low to High). Horizontal axis: Feasibility (Hard to Doable).

  • Long-term goals (High importance, Hard feasibility): Important but hard to do. Plan these across review cycles and name who owns them.
  • Go-zone (High importance, Doable feasibility): Important and doable. Start the action plan here.
  • Leave for now (Low importance, Hard feasibility): Neither important nor easy. Record them and move on.
  • Easy extras (Low importance, Doable feasibility): Doable but less important. Fine to do if they cost little, but they are not priorities.
