As digital learning developers, my team and Iusuallyspent most of our working time behind a screen at our desks.This is great as it allows us to experience the flow of different digital artefacts creation. However,the stories that we want to share with our learners are not laying there. They are created, happening, exposed and shared where our customers are, where the products are produced, where the sales experts who are going to use our e-learning coursesare operating. Thus, it is important that we start “…immersing ourselves in the place of most potential, in the places which matter most to the situation we are dealing with.” (Scharmer und Kaufer 2013, p.21).So, based on the belief that the best learning solutions cannot be found in a manual

The Project Team who is leading this process needs to be connected to the system of the different stakeholders who take part in the process and to their stories as well.The members of the Project Team, who are responsible for the storyboards creation, and the Subject Matter Experts, are playing out the dialogues, as role-plays, in our working lab. By recording this experience with both audio and visual methods, we are able to provide the e-learning Design and Programming Team with a very realistic view of how we would like them to transformand build the digital version of the
