Ignite Methodology

Five phases.
One direction.

PRISM is Light Craft Labs' proprietary facilitation framework — a structured, five-phase approach to taking leadership teams from scattered AI priorities to a committed strategy they own.

P R I S M

P · R · I · S · M

Five structured phases. Each one builds on the last.

P
Phase 1
Probe & Prime
Set the conditions for real alignment.

Deep-dive diagnostic into your AI landscape. We surface where you stand, where competitive pressure is building, and where the critical strategic gaps lie — so your leadership team walks in informed, focused, and ready to decide.

Stakeholder interviews Context synthesis Session design
R
Phase 2
Reflect
Surface what's really going on across the organization.

Cross-organizational process that surfaces competing priorities, hidden tensions, and untapped momentum — building genuine alignment across your leadership before a single strategy is written.

Cross-org interviews Tension mapping Alignment baseline
I
Phase 3
Imagine & Ideate
Generate possibilities before narrowing to priorities.

Structured ideation sessions grounded in design thinking. A wide field of strategic bets — where the strongest strategies emerge from unexpected starting points. We create space for creative thinking before judgment begins.

Use case generation Design thinking facilitation Divergent exploration
S
Phase 4
Synthesize
Converge on what matters most.

A rigorous evaluative lens mapping opportunities against user impact, strategic value, and organizational readiness — bold choices backed by clarity. The team converges on a shortlist they can defend, with a rationale for what's not on it.

Prioritization framework Decision criteria Aligned shortlist
M
Phase 5
Magnify
Leave with a plan you're ready to own.

Rapid prototyping and iteration sprints that turn your highest-priority strategic bets into tangible, testable concepts. You leave with a path forward — not just a slide deck.

Sequenced roadmap Owners & milestones Committed next steps

Built for transformation

Designed for Senior Teams

Built for decision-makers with real accountability. Not a training program — a structured decision environment for leaders who need to move fast and move together.

Independent of Any Vendor

PRISM produces a strategy your team owns — not one that's optimized for any single technology provider's roadmap. You walk away free to execute how you choose.

Conviction, Not Just Consensus

We design for genuine commitment, not polite agreement. The output is a strategy the team will actually execute — not a slide deck they'll revisit in six months.

Ready to run PRISM with your team?

Ignite engagements run 4–6 weeks. We work with a limited number of leadership teams at a time.
