The 5-day Design Sprint process provides teams a structured approach to answering critical business questions. In the first day, teams map out the challenge by defining a long-term goal and target audience. On the second day, teams sketch rapid ideas and variations. The third day has teams vote on the best ideas to prototype. A prototype is created on the fourth day for user testing on the fifth day. This process gives teams a fast way to learn from users without fully building and launching a product.
It used to take companies weeks to brainstorm, write specs, publish RFPs, and get started on projects. With a design sprint, it’s possible to accomplish all that—plus sketching, prototyping, and validating big ideas—in just 5 days.
Sound too good to be true? We partnered with InVision to help teams learn how exactly to run their own design sprint. Follow these tips and by the end of your sprint, you’ll have live, targeted customer validation so you know exactly what to prioritize in your product roadmap.
New York Bestseller Jake Knapp’s book, Sprint, explores how companies and teams can replicate Google’s sprint process to solve a problem within five days.
So how does a design sprint actually work, and how can you use a sprint to devise effective solutions in such a short period of time?
Enhance your productivity through design sprints, you’ll learn:
- What is a Design Sprint
- Design sprint case studies and success stories
- How you can run a design sprint effectively

In this fun, hands-on workshop, I’ll lead you through a series of exercises which help you learn to draw good-looking, quick, useful, user interface (UI) sketches.
This class covers:
• Types of sketches
• Why sketch?
• Sketching materials
• Grids, containers and functional groupings
• Developing your personal UI shorthand
This workshop is appropriate for designers, product managers, Web developers, software engineers or anyone else who needs to think about or communicate concepts for digital products. No prior artistic or drawing experience necessary. If you can draw a circle, a square and a triangle, you’ve already got the basics covered!
Learning how to quickly sketch screen layouts and UI elements helps you think through design problems, communicate ideas to other people, collaborate, and reduce the need for pixel-perfect deliverables. Work through the exercises in this workshop and pick up some new skills you can use right away in your own projects.
December 2017 presentation covering: What is design thinking? What does it look like in practice? What are some case stories of design thinking being used in the real world? How can we use design thinking in our organization? Where can I learn more?
Design Thinking is a design methodology that provides a solution-based approach to solving problems. It’s extremely useful in tackling complex problems that are ill-defined or unknown, by understanding the human needs involved, by re-framing the problem in human-centric ways, by creating many ideas in brainstorming sessions, and by adopting a hands-on approach in prototyping and testing.
So the purpose of product discovery is to make sure we have some evidence that when we ask the engineers to build production-quality software, it won’t be a wasted effort.

Why are some designs better than others, and what can you do about it? (The workshop)
If you've ever described a poster as heavy, a website as dense, an app as clumsy or an object as whimsical, you probably already know the answer. Recent psychology research is showing that experiential metaphors are key emotional drivers that impact our perception of the world. Applying these findings to design confirms what designers have learned throughout their careers—good design is subconscious first and rational second. Michael will share stories from this research and the IDEO portfolio then share tools to help you be more consciously subconscious.

Light Weight Methods to Drive Your Designs ForwardNicole Capuana
Product teams these days need to be moving quickly and iteratively in delivering great products. At times though, teams can get stuck on how to move the designs forward. Sometimes it’s because of unexpected complexity and other times there are multiple paths to explore.
In this workshop, participants will experience a variety of methods that help teams gain a shared understanding through collaboration with clients, product owners, and key stakeholders. Each of the methods covered are light-weight and can be adopted by teams at any stage in the product design and development. Learn how to:
+ get started with user research,
+ define personas,
+ generate and turn ideas into solid solutions,
+ create low-fidelity mockups that can be tested with users immediately,
+ conduct a usability test,
+ synthesize your findings,
+ and gain focus for the product through games and structured discussion.
Every method covered will focus on designing a mobile app so that participants get the full experience of how each method fits into designing a product.
Don't worry if you don't have any UX background, this workshop will guide you through exercises. And if you're a UX rockstar, come flex your usability prowess with other professionals. Come learn and share tips & tricks! Everyone on a product team can benefit from this hands-on practice.
Design sprints can accelerate decision-making and development of your product or service. Remote design sprints are largely untried but we have found that it is still possible to conduct one virtually, using the right tools.
This guide outlines all of the steps involved in setting up and running a remote design sprint, detailing what is involved or required for each step as well as tips for optimising your sprint.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.

5. Why do a Design Sprint?
1. Get User Feedback Before It’s Too Late
2. Visibility & Alignment
3. Create an Innovative Culture
4. Less Risk, More Speed
11. 1. Map
● Structured discussions to create a path for the sprint
week.
● Start at the end & agree to a long-term goal.
● You’ll make a map of the challenge.
● Ask the experts at your company to share what they
know.
● Finally, you’ll pick a target: an ambitious but manageable
piece of the problem that you can solve in one week.
12. Why are we doing this project?
Where do we want to be six months, a year, or even five
years from now?
What needs to be done to reach that our long-term goal?
What could be possible failures?
What could cause those possible failures?
15. How to frame “How Might/Can We…” Questions
● Write in all caps with a marker.
● Only one question per sticky note.
● Questions should NOT be too broad or narrow.
16. Let’s make a map :
● List the possible users
● Write the ending
● Map each user’s journey
17. 2. Sketch
● Each person will sketch,
following a four-step process
that emphasizes critical
thinking over artistry.
● Lastly everyone votes and the
best of these sketches will
form the plan for your
prototype and test.
18. The 4 Step Sketch Process
1. Notes : Gather Key
Info/Inspiration
2. Ideas : Doodle Rough Solution
3. Crazy 8’s : Try Rapid Variations
4. Solution Sketch : Figure out the
details
19. 3. Decide
Collectively as a team,
vote for the ideas you
think work the best.
The ideas with the
highest votes would
make your final
prototype.
20. 4. Prototype
Clean up the final wireframes
and create a prototype. That
will be used for testing.
21. 5. Testing
Time to check whether
users are able to
understand and use what
you’ve created.
