In one action-packed day you'll experience an entire 5-day Design Sprint. You'll get to try the exercises, ask questions, build confidence, and develop muscle memory for running your own sprints. You'll laugh. You'll high-five. You'll leave with new and powerful ways to do better work, faster.
John is a former design partner at GV, where he worked with Jake Knapp to develop the Design Sprint process. Since 2011, he has run more than 150 sprints. John co-authored the Sprint book and he's the editor of Sprint Stories, where hundreds of teams share their experiences with the sprint process.
This Bootcamp is All About Action
John won't just talk at you. During the Design Sprint Bootcamp, you'll put pens to paper, sticky notes to whiteboards, and hands in the air as John leads you through the full 5-day sprint process. And there will be plenty of time for Q&A, so you can learn from John's experience running sprints with Slack, Blue Bottle Coffee, Flatiron Health, Uber, One Medical Group, and many many more.
One Bootcamp, Two Experienced Sprint Leaders
John will be joined by Maicol Parker-Chavez of EMsprint, LA-based Design Sprint facilitator and design strategist. Not only will he be our host for the day, but Maicol will also be available to answer questions and share stories from his sprint experiences.
