How design thinking, lean, and agile work together
- 1. HOW DESIGN THINKING, LEAN, AND AGILE WORK TOGETHER @Jonnyschneider LONDON 2019
- 3. The problem with the hexagons is that they’ve created THE design process, and that sounds grand and all encompassing, but in reality they are just a suggestion for how to get started. —Carissa Carter @snowflyzone
- 4. navigate ambiguity empathetic learning synthesise information fast experimentation concrete and abstract learn from others craft things intentionally communicate deliberately Design is an ability. Process only helps with getting started.
- 5. Manage flow to optimise value Quality is a outcome, not an activity Empower people. Happier. Better outcomes. Outcomes over outputs Learning and adapting over analysis and prediction Lean optimises systems of work

- 7. Individuals and interactions over processes and tools Working software over comprehensive documentation Customer collaboration over contract negotiation Responding to change over following a plan Agile optimises software delivery

- 11. 1 Continuous learning is the new competitive advantage.
- 12. Cost of creating software Reduced over time Complexity/uncertainty has increased over time THEN NOW TIME

- 14. @Lissijean, inspired by @realmikerother
- 15. Aspirational Narrative Product Hypotheses Design Experiments User Story Map Data/feedback
- 16. 2 Design the right experiments, to learn the right things.
- 17. evolved version of hypothesis template 30 AWARE, INFORMED AND ON-BOARDED We believe that Better informing travellers about Tax Free Refund steps and process ! Will result in an increase in repeated usage of the Global Blue app We will know we’ve succeed when IN PROTOTYPE REAL Number of ‘active/engaged’ users increases by Accuracy of submitted forms increases by PLAN Acquisition 6% 30%

- 22. 3 Measure only things that contribute to decisions.
- 23. MEASUREMENT COMMENT Customers will be delighted Too vague Net Promoter Score (NPS) will increase Subject to external factors, hard to attribute to a specific initiative 6 customer features completed Measures output, not outcome Conversion from results page to product detail page increases by 3% month-on-month Good! Basket-size for returning customers increases on average from quarter-to-quarter Good! Average time-on-site per item purchase reduced by 6% quarter-to-quarter Good! GOAL→ Customers can easily find what they are looking for.

- 34. 2 Design the right experiments, to learn the right things. ‣ Define your beliefs and assumptions ‣ Decide the most important thing to learn ‣ Design experiments that can deliver the right learning ‣ Be stubborn on the vision, but flexible on the details. ‣ Create the conditions for teams to learn their way forward. ‣ Focus on confidence, not certainty. 1 Continuous learning is the new competitive advantage.
- 35. 4 Solve next-order problems ‣ Zoom out ‣ Work together at the intersections ‣ Try new ways of doing ‣ Adopt the things that work ‣ Learn from the things that don’t ‣ Can it be measured? ‣ Does it inform a decision? ‣ Do y’know when you’re done? ‣ Is it aligned to your goals? 3 Measure things that matter
