• When you need a verdict• When you need alignment• When you need a new direction• When a team needs to gel• When you need to take a step back
When to sprint?
@docket @darwin PILOT WORKS35
When not to sprint?• When you have no insight• When the solution is clear• When stakeholders aren’t interested• When you need quantitative data
rather than user feedback
@docket @darwin PILOT WORKS36
Recap• Deciding what to build is hard• Discovery is needed• But classic discovery falls short• Need shared understanding• In tune with business cadence• Try Design Sprints!
