THINGS

Day 1 you understand your problem, decide what part of the problem to solve and decide what solutions to test
Day 2: design prototype versions of your solution and test with real users to get their feedback
End of every session we need a summary and we bring that back

Josh

Often, you’ll find opportunity in disaster when looking for sprintable problems – times when there’s been an acute failure doing things the old way. Or when a team is called to act on a long-standing problem.
Outside those opportunities, you want to talk about risk.
Most of our senses are meant to perceive forms
Eyes, mind’s eye, hands
Dan Roam’s six ways of seeing and showing
Who/what is a portrait
How many is a chart
Where is a map
When is a timeline
How is a flowchart
Why is a multi-variable plot
Really about trust in the unknown “or lack thereof”
Describe the destination (outcome) and urgency
Show the route (process)
Then, be bold. Ask for trust.
The analytical barrier
Analysis is dissection – it cannot take apart what’s not already put together
Questions are most often analytical
Analysis is comfortable – demolition is the easiest part of a renovation (the oh shit moment)
Prototypes are mirrors that allow us to reflect and analyze – it’s helping you see what you’ve already intuitively put together
So just put something out there
Expertise is our memory of past experience
Sometimes valid, sometimes not
Multiple perspectives
Sprinters learn through experience, not expertise
Use expertise well
Blind spots
Interpretation
Lightning talks
End of every session we need a summary and we bring that back
