Talk : Make it Happen!

Let’s face it, Design Sprint is still new, looks risky and there are millions of good reasons NOT to run a first 5 days in an organisation. Together, we’ll see how we convince our corporate clients to finally get excited, roll up their sleeves and take the plunge.

Tomomi Sasaki is a partner at the Tokyo & Paris based design studio AQ, leading projects that deliver useful digital products and services for clients around the world. In the past few years, she’s extended her design research and facilitation skills to take on challenges like organizational culture change and transforming the employee experience. Say hi on Twitter @tomomiq.

Talk : Orchestrating multiple design sprints

Most design sprints aren’t run in isolation. What does it look like when we want to run a series of sprints? Run sprints in parallel? Launch a program of sprints? In this short talk, Tomomi will zoom out from our tendency to focus on the next design sprint, to open up a conversation on the possibilities and what it takes to orchestrate more than one.

Rémi Rivas is a consulting designer, cofounder of Ignited Kingdom.

His mission is to help organizations define, organize and implement their innovation projects. His purpose is to improve the performance of innovation methods, systematically debunk the risks and shorten the time to market thanks to design thinking, lean startup and outcome-driven innovation.

Talk : Design Sprint not by the book

Beyond the rigorous methodology, let me show you how we twisted and adjusted the Sprint philosophy in order to :
– accelerate the conception of digital tools into corporate cultures,
– align the key stakeholders on ambitious innovation projects,
– build startups essential value propositions
– teach the basics of Design Thinking to 500 students at once !
This talk is about how we didn’t follow the recipe at all but learned some cool stuff in the end anyway.

Fabrice Liut is cofounder of Les Comptoirs, Sprint master community leader is a Systemic & Regenerative Designer. I solve problems with the Design Sprint recipe. I talk about life, I make fast prototypes and music.

Talk : Systems thinking to improve transformational design sprint

Jake Knapp’s design sprint is great to learn and launch digitals and start-up products and services. likewise, his recipe is useful to transform complex organisations ! But in a complex system, you need more than design thinking tools, you need systems thinking tools to improve the design sprint recipe !
I’ll show you how I adapt design sprint tools to make design sprint awesome to solve problems in complex playgrounds.
I’ll show you how systemic design and macro-facilitation can help our society’s transformation.
