Time to innovate? Let's Dezy it!
A Design Sprint is a unique five-day process by Google Ventures. It is the key to success for many Start-ups while validating ideas and solving big challenges through prototyping and testing ideas with real users. To put it simply, a Sprint is a quick way to build and test ideas and thoughts with users while innovating. The various steps involved in a Design Sprint are:
Mapping - It involves working with experts across the organization to map out the problem and determine the overall goal of the Design Sprint. It is important to understand your users and their problems via customer journey maps and empathy maps.
Ideation - Exploring feasible solutions and sketching them through examining various sources of inspiration.
Storyboarding - Going through every solution, using storyboards and listing the pros and cons of each, thereby collectively narrowing down the solutions to the most attainable one.
Prototyping - Constructing a working prototype of the selected solution using the storyboards finalised on the previous day.
Testing - User testing of the finalised prototype on at least five users. This is one of the most important steps as it ensures whether the solution attained is a workable one or not.
