Event Storming

Big Picture Event Storming doesn’t end with the timeline. Learn how its outcomes - hot spots, pivotal events, swimlanes, actors, and systems - help assess project risk, define system boundaries, and decide which processes to explore next.

A successful Event Storming workshop is not about perfection. Learn how facilitators can focus on the most important events, manage discussions, capture hotspots, and ensure the workshop delivers real value.

Choosing the first event in Event Storming is harder than it seems. This article explores five practical strategies for starting the timeline phase, helping facilitators keep participants engaged and focused on the most important events.

Chaos turns into structure. By enforcing a timeline in our Event Storming workshop, we organize events chronologically, uncover relationships between processes, and identify pivotal moments that shape the business flow.

Let’s apply Event Storming in practice. Using a Training Center case study, we organize a Big Picture workshop, gather domain experts, and begin chaotic exploration to uncover events, clarify terminology, and build shared domain knowledge.

Big Picture Event Storming is a powerful way to explore a business domain. Learn the workshop structure, key concepts like events and hotspots, and the steps that help teams build shared understanding and identify important domain insights.
