Pick a bounded process
Choose a single flow with a clear start and finish. Use a recent example instead of trying to map the whole operation at once.
See the work between the handovers.
Map a process with the people who know it. Bring planning, production and support perspectives together to discuss delays, rework and improvement ideas.
Hosts sign up. Guests join with a name.
Make one process visible enough to improve.

Agree what to investigate
Select one friction point, identify the evidence needed and name who will check it.
An example session
