Build the Right Product - Innovation through Collaboration & Design Thinking

This is a 2 Day training where you’ll learn how to work hands on in an human centered process for innovation where Design Thinking (research), Lean UX (hypothesis driven ideation and continuous validation) and Agile development (Scrum) fits together. With collaborative work in a cross functional team you will go from business problem to impact goal, to learning about the users, to exploring ideas and designing paper prototypes and validating your assumptions and prioritizing continuously. In the end of the two days you will have created a sliced user story map with your MVP strategy and you are ready to start delivering and validating your product in your Agile scrum team. This is modern product development.

This training is suitable for teams. We speak Swedish or English depending on the audience – let us know your preferred language upon signup.

In this training, you and your team will get a defined process and a powerful toolbox for innovation with short feedback loops and a clear connection to Scrum and Agile product development. If you do this continuously in your organization you will have no more handovers, short time to market, very little waste, great possibilities to improve and adapt the process over time. It will be the easiest and cheapest way to innovate and test new strategies and products.

The training is also suitable for teams who want to become more T-shape and learn how to better collaborate and work together in an efficient and structured manner.

• What earlier students say about this training

  “Gick kurs som du höll på Crisp en gång i tiden (Product discovery med Lean UX) och vill bara säga att jag hittills inte gått en kurs som gett mig sån konkret utväxling efteråt. Den förändrade både mitt sätt att jobba och mitt team. Så tack!”
  – Jonna Samuelsson
  Agile Change Management, Max Mathisen

  “Det var en toppenkurs som gav mycket inspiration och många handfasta tips! Bra med ett case att följa och göra övningar kring genom hela kursen. Härligt med så få slides och att vi istället gick runt i rummet och pratade kring utskrivna bilder. På så sätt blir det mer dynamik och man somnar inte i stolen. Du är en duktig utbildare, både pedagogisk och kompetent inom ämnet.  Stort tack!”
  – Catrine Björkegren
  Agil Consultant, Frontit 

  “The training gave me a lot of inspiration and creativity with help by goals, personas and workflows without not designing anything. Focus is on how the design can support different customers key goals, behaviors and feelings dependent on where they are at the moment. A true a-ha experience but at the same time so obvious. Two really interesting days with a lot of different workshops. This training took me and my employer a big step closer to the customer. I truly recommend it!”
