Let’s start with a story “Our design-led approach has taken the complexity of clinical care and presented it to nurses simply, humanly and intuitively. Nurses learn to use Healthforce in less than 45 minutes. In turn, this has opened many opportunities with business owners who appreciate that the solution will actually be used.” Saul Kornik CEO

- 37. Ways to make space for design to happen in your process ● Draw up and agree a new process with the whole team that includes discovery and design. Expect to have to tune it a lot. ● Make discovery an explicit thing. Discovery docs. Discovery artefacts. Discovery tickets. ● Have discovery workshops for epics, where the whole team can hear the insights, sketch ideas. ● Deluxe: Build a discovery room where people can stick things up and debate.
- 38. Managing dual track discovery and delivery ● Hard for one designer to handle both tracks on their own: not enough time! ● Discovery tickets move slowly, go backwards or sometimes reproduce ● Measurement often takes many sprints. How do you keep track and remember to measure after release?
