For example, the stakeholders that David advocates putting into that room are the people who have the vision about "what the organization needs to achieve." It's probably part of their daily conversations and I would expect it to emerge as part of the brainstorm (probably the part where people explain their ideas, after the idea generation phase). If it doesn't, then you've probably put the wrong people in the room. Likewise the gap between the current and the aspirational should be obvious to everyone. If they're not intimately familiar with the current then again they probably aren't part of this exercise.
So, if I understand correctly, you're speaking in an ideal world, where everyone already has the data they need when they walk in the room and everyone is on the same page with that data. Did I get that right?
Because, I've never stepped into that world. The world I live in has stakeholders who have no clue what's happening with their designs outside their perceptions of mythical users with mythical scenarios.
