This course immerses students in the practice of innovation sprints, a five-day process for rapidly solving problems and testing new ideas. Participants will learn to plan and prepare for sprints, utilize rapid ideation techniques, test prototypes with users, integrate feedback, and scale solutions post-sprint.
Imagine your team has been tasked with solving a complex problem or developing a new product offering. Instead of getting bogged down in endless meetings and discussions, you decide to run an innovation sprint. In just five days, you go from defining the problem to testing a functional prototype with real users. The insights you gain allow you to refine your solution and move forward with confidence, knowing you're on the right track.
In this course, you'll learn how to run your own innovation sprints. You'll discover how to plan and prepare for a successful sprint, including selecting the right challenge and assembling a cross-functional team. You'll gain hands-on experience with rapid ideation techniques that help you generate and refine ideas quickly. You'll learn how to build and test prototypes with real users, gathering valuable feedback to inform your solution. Finally, you'll explore strategies for integrating successful sprint outcomes into your normal business operations.
Don't let bureaucracy and indecision slow your innovation. Learn how to use innovation sprints to solve problems, test ideas, and drive results at rapid speed.
