About this workshop:
Summary
Google Ventures has famously developed their "Design Sprint" methodology to take teams from idea to tested prototype in just one week. In practice, it is often difficult to schedule a team to focus on nothing else for an entire week, and even more so on a regular basis. Adapting GV's approach and other design workshop methodologies, Jackson has developed a hyper-condensed process to effectively help teams go from vague idea to a vetted, buildable design in under two hours. He calls this workshop a "Microburst".

Takeaways for campers
This isn't just for designers. Microburst participants can be anyone involved in product creation. Get a quick overview of Google's one week Design Sprint methodology and how it can be adapted to design solutions extremely quickly. Learn techniques to tease multiple creative solutions out of your team's heads and onto paper where they can be explored and vetted. You will be surprised what is possible in just a couple of hours.
