How does something go from a design challenge to an actual user-centered product?

One way is through design sprints.

What is a Design Sprint

A Design Sprint is a unique five-day process for validating ideas and solving big challenges through prototyping and testing ideas with customers.

  5. Test. Get feedback from real live users.

Might ask

  • Which tools saved you the most time and effort?
  • When did you feel the most satisfaction?
  • What helped you make your best contribution to the team during this sprint?
  • What went wrong that caught you off guard?
  • Which problems came up the most often?
  • When do you think we experienced the biggest challenge as a team?
  • Did the team overestimate or underestimate the work required to complete the design?
  • Did an external factor derail（阻挠） your productivity?
  • And most importantly, does the final design actually solve the user problem?
  • What did you discover during the sprint that you’re still wondering about?

  • How could the current process be holding the team back from creating better solutions?


    Importance

    They can help you to work better as a team, improve how you communicate with clients, and even point out areas where you can grow as an individual. Retrospectives are all about empowering, not shaming.
