Overview
Participants will select a product idea to explore and use it as a vehicle for the course. Starting with the formation of a product discovery team and proceeding through lean UX practices, participants design a product with measurable impact.
As part of the discovery process, participants use tools like opportunity mapping, collaborative framing, pragmatic personas, story mapping, and customer journeys to elaborate and visualize a product story. For people working with agile teams, this course helps build strong product backlogs with better stories as well as provides insights into continuous product discovery that feeds continuous product delivery and learning.
Note: When taken live, online, this class is delivered in three half-day sessions.
