Pass the Paper

Collaborative brainstorming is an excellent method to facilitate a group of individuals in generating a diverse range of innovative concepts related to a specific problem. By encouraging participants to build upon each other's ideas, the process allows for rapid evolution and unexpected transformations. This collaborative approach, known as Round Robin, emphasizes collective authorship, with each person contributing their unique perspective. The ultimate outcome is a collection of ideas that surpasses the imagination of any individual.

Visual Prototyping Template

Visual and emotional aspects play a vital role in determining a product or service's usability and user experience. To evaluate these aspects of your proposed solution, consider using the Visual Prototyping Template. By creating a model that closely resembles the real product or service, and gathering feedback from key stakeholders, you can assess whether the form of your creation is advantageous or detrimental.

Storyboard Template

While storyboard is typically associated with planning out scenes for a movie or TV show, it’s been widely adopted throughout the business world. A storyboard is a sequence of illustrations that are used to develop a story. You can use the Storyboarding template anytime you’d like to really put yourself in a customer or user’s position and understand how they think, feel, and act. This tactic can be especially useful when you know there’s a problem or inefficiency with an existing process. You can storyboard existing processes or workflows and plan how you would like them to look in the future.

When you’re working on a new feature that solves a problem for your users, it’s easy to dive right in and start looking for solutions. However, it’s important to understand the initial user problem first. Use the Feature Canvas template to do a deep-dive into the user’s problems, the context in which they will use your feature, and the value proposition you will deliver to your users. The template enables you to spend more time exploring the problem to anticipate any potential blind spots before jumping into solutions mode.
