Workshop Format
Everyone is talking about processes. But hardly anyone has the same idea of what they are.
The Umantis Metro Map makes HR processes understandable and tangible for everyone involved. Using the metaphor of a light rail map, we take a look at your HR processes together—with a focus on the users.
- A Visual Roadmap for Your HR Transformation
- All Perspectives: Applicants, Employees, HR, Line Management, Committees
- Critical junctions and priorities become immediately apparent
- Result: documented, immediately actionable solutions
What to Bring
Common Understanding
All stakeholders develop a shared understanding of how people and processes interact and where complexity arises.
Documented & Ready to Implement
The results are documented. Using the Umantis Metro Map as a basis, you will develop solutions that can be implemented immediately and identify specific next steps.
Guidance for All Involved
The Umantis Metro Map illustrates processes in a way that makes them easy to understand—for HR, IT, leadership, and committees.
Making Complexity Understandable
HR calls them competencies. IT calls them data fields. Nursing management calls it a duty roster. The Umantis Metro Map brings these perspectives together and visualizes, step by step, how people and processes interact across different levels of the organization.
The results of collaborative efforts are documented in a structured manner and serve as a guide and working basis for further development and implementation.
From the Vision to the Project Plan
Traditional process workshops end with a document. The Umantis Metro Map ends with a collaboratively developed visual representation that has the same meaning for everyone involved—and that is directly translated into a configurable system. This significantly reduces misunderstandings between HR, IT, and leadership.
Frequently Asked Questions About the Umantis Metro Map
How long does an Umantis Metro Map workshop last?
A typical Umantis Metro Map workshop lasts half a day to a full day. For more complex organizations with multiple locations or pay grades, we occasionally schedule two days. The scope depends on how many process areas are to be covered.
Who should attend the workshop?
The focus is on the users of your HR processes: applicants, employees, HR (Services, Recruiting, Payroll), line managers and executives, as well as committee members (e.g., the works council). The goal is to incorporate the relevant perspectives in a way that truly brings to light the connections between people and processes.
Do we need any prior knowledge of the method?
No. The Umantis Metro Map uses the metaphor of a light rail or transit map, which is familiar to many and easy to understand. The connections are explored and visualized step by step, so everyone involved can easily get started.
What are the specific outcomes of the workshop?
You’ll receive an Umantis Metro Map that visualizes processes, highlights connections and interactions, identifies critical nodes, and helps set priorities. In addition, we’ll develop solutions that can be implemented immediately and outline next steps—tailored to your specific situation.
What sets Umantis Metro Map apart from a traditional process workshop?
Traditional process workshops end with a document. The Umantis Metro Map ends with a collaboratively developed visual representation that has the same meaning for everyone involved—and that is directly translated into a configurable system.
