Short learning huddle script — turn findings into tests in 20 minutes

Use this facilitator script after the audit to convert observations into prioritized experiments and learning actions.

1. Set the tone (2 minutes): Remind the group the purpose is learning, not blame. Share one quick positive observation to start.
2. Review top observations (5 minutes): Each observer reads their top 1–2 findings (30–60 seconds each). Stick to facts: what was seen, not who did it.
3. Prioritize (5 minutes): As a group, pick up to three items that should be tested first. Use this quick rule: pick items that mix high risk and reasonable ease of testing.
4. Design the test (5 minutes): For each selected item agree on owner, what change will be tried, how long the test will run (1–4 weeks), and one simple verification check.
5. Close and commit (3 minutes): Confirm owners and deadlines, schedule a 15-minute review huddle at the test end, and thank people for honest observations.

Facilitator tips: Keep the meeting time-boxed. Capture actions in the prioritized controls worksheet. If people raise blame, steer the conversation back to system causes and what the team can change tomorrow.
