COURSE OVERVIEW
In this Design Sprint course, you will learn how to run, work in and facilitate the five days of a design sprint to develop customer-validated solutions. If you haven’t used Design Sprints before, this becomes a crash course in how to use them in your organization to solve big problems in just one week by putting together cross-functional Design Sprint groups and create crucial product and marketing innovations and get them validated through testing with real customers.
Design Sprints, or Innovation Sprints as they sometimes are called, is a leading methodology in reducing time to market for new Customer Experience and product development. They are also a key tool to increase the level of innovation in an organization, as well as to speed up the pace of innovation. From identifying a problem on Monday, you deliver new and validated customer value by Friday. Design Sprints are an excellent format for the Agile Release Trains to perform their continuous exploration during the Innovation Iteration. Especially since the method is based upon and thrives in a multi-role setting with built-in ways to handle stakeholder integration within the format.
The expert trainers leading the course will go through different facilitation techniques for each step in the Design Sprint flow, reaching from the start of the double diamond all the way to the end where you will have a validated prototype or even a working solution in the hands of your customers.
- Unpack and map the problem
- Develop ideas
- Choose a solution
- Build the prototype
- Test and validate
Execute a whole Design Sprint 100% online! The course will help you choose the right techniques for in-room workshops as well as for running design sprints online. With these, you can turn the remote working conditions into an advantage and deliver higher and more competitive customer value now when all teams have become distributed by necessity.
During the course, we will use a real-world case as an example to help us understand the design sprint flow, and if you sign up three or more participants you are welcome to bring your own case to use during the course.
