    About this ebook

    In today's fast-paced world, it's tough to find the time to read. But with Joosr guides, you can get the key insights from bestselling non-fiction titles in less than 20 minutes.

    When businesses develop new products or working practices, they face huge risks. They must invest time, money, and personnel in something that ultimately may not work. However, the sprint process allows you to fast-forward through traditional, inefficient working methods to discover whether it is truly worth taking a chance on the new venture.

    Sprint provides techniques that have been tried and tested in over 100 companies, from start-up to multinational business, and shows how your own business can tackle a major challenge within just five days. If starting a new project is like setting off on a voyage into unknown territory, then using the sprint process is like being able to send out a scouting party first. Before you commit your entire expedition force to travelling down a path, the scout will have already discovered whether that path leads to quicksand or treasure.

    You will learn:

    · How to build a team of people who will then focus and collaborate on a single worthwhile goal

    · How to identify the most important challenges and goals within your organization

    · How to create a prototype to show customers within just five days.

      takeaways

      What’s it about?

      In many large organizations, the route from ideas phase to prototype can take years and cost millions. Smaller businesses and start-ups simply cannot afford such time or funds to commit to this phase, and large businesses must often play safe rather than risk wasting resources. But what if there was a quicker way to solve your business’s problems and bring ideas to fruition?

      The sprint methodology provides the means to condense these drawn-out timescales into an incredibly short period, so you can begin profiting from a successful idea more quickly than ever before. Activities that previously took many months can now be compressed into just one working week, and at the end of that week not only will an actual prototype have been created, but customer feedback data will also have been gathered. Just as importantly, sprints allow you to identify flawed ideas and reject them within five days, instead of risking years of money, time, and resources on a project that was doomed to fail.

      Whether your business is just starting out or is fully established, the potential benefits of the sprint approach are significant. In Sprint, you will learn how to put together a team who will immediately focus on identifying the biggest problems and challenges within your organization. You will also discover
