Summary
Do you have a product that needs improvement, or a process to define? Is your team looking for a way to generate and test new ideas quickly? The Design Sprint process, created at Google, is a structured way to explore a problem, create a solution, and get user feedback, all in five days or less. Join Kai Haley (https://twitter.com/kaihaley), who teaches sprint facilitation at Google, and Zeke Binion (https://twitter.com/ebinion), who has run many sprints, as they show Noel Rappin (https://www.twitter.com/noelrap) how to use Design Sprints.
