System Scan & tools

HSP — PRACTICAL

Practical tools for making visible what appears to be happening in a concrete situation, pattern or team.

The tools are not diagnoses and do not define who you are. They help you observe, organise and ask better questions.

Choose the tool that fits your question

HSP tools

The tools are not tests that determine who you are. They help you examine what is happening now and where influence may exist.

The HSP Core Protocol defines the route. The tools support specific stages within that route — for example observation, pattern mapping, input inspection or rollback review.

HSP System Scan

A snapshot of the layers where your system currently appears most constrained or under pressure.

In the HSP Core Protocol: ORIENTATION → likely bottleneck

HSP Observation Map

Map what you detect, what happens internally and what output follows.

In the HSP Core Protocol: OBSERVE → MAP

Use the Observation Map →

HSP System Map

Place the main system elements of one concrete situation next to each other.

In the HSP Core Protocol: MAP → CONDITIONS

Use the System Map →

HSP Pattern Map

Examine a pattern that keeps returning across different situations.

In the HSP Core Protocol: MAP → FUNCTION

Use the Pattern Map →

HSP Trigger Map

Examine which signals trigger activation and what changes afterwards.

In the HSP Core Protocol: OBSERVE → MAP

Use the Trigger Map →

HSP Input Filter

Examine which framing, assumptions and other input gain influence before you respond.

In the HSP Core Protocol: OBSERVE → CONDITIONS

Use the Input Filter →

HSP Rollback Review

Review a relapse without treating it only as failure.

In the HSP Core Protocol: VERIFY → ROLLBACK

Use the Rollback Review →

Which tool, when?

Practical choice

I do not yet know where I get stuck

Start with the System Scan.

I want to unpack one situation

Use the Observation Map or System Map.

The same thing keeps returning

Use the Pattern Map.

Something activates me immediately

Use the Trigger Map.

I am questioning the input itself

Use the Input Filter.

I fell back into old behavior

Use the Rollback Review.

For teams and Agile/Scrum

Team tools

A team is not the sum of individual scores. Team tools are used to make patterns in collaboration, pressure, rules and capacity discussable.

For Agile and Scrum teams there is the Agile/Scrum Quick Scan: a short snapshot that can be used for intake, workshop opening, pre-retro reflection or before-and-after comparison.

A tool is a starting point, not a conclusion

No diagnosis

A score or map does not define who you are and does not prove a cause.

Use the result as a working hypothesis: which layer appears to have influence now, what do we see in concrete situations and what happens when we change something small?

Not getting further on your own?

WHEN A TOOL IS NOT ENOUGH

A tool does not have to produce an answer. Sometimes it mainly makes a better question visible.

If you want to investigate that question further, you can begin with the concrete situation that is now clearer.
