Description

There and back: the road of product discovery

Product strategy is evolving and becoming less clear, as is the ‘product roadmap’. Requirements, business needs and user expectations are changing at a rapid pace. This session focuses on the process and thinking of product discovery and exploration to inform your product roadmap by running multiple projects that are all connected to the problems that need to be solved.

This case study will cover:

  • brainstorming and idea generation
  • understanding and getting team alignment on the problem
  • executing a high tempo prototyping process to develop ideas
  • learning from the prototypes with real humans to get feedback in user testing
  • incorporating what was learned in the product roadmap
  • success stories and project examples
  • dual track scrum to maintain discovery as a routine part of your process • leading a cross-functional team of designers, engineers and product managers
