@Alex Carmen no worries about my sanity haha. No netflix here. A lot of reading though. What I do is apply what i know from other projects, experience and readings into the sprint framework. Not to brag but over the years I have learned how to learn and somehow it comes to me very easily to turn complex concepts into simple easy steps for participants. Its a matter of understanding the principles, turning everything into a workshop and F***n it up many times haha (I f'd it up big time with Microsoft)
Great feedback from a "surprise" hybrid workshop
A painstakingly planned in-person strategy and design workshop turned into an impromptu hybrid workshop when I discovered 8 of 18 participants would be joining remotely TWO DAYS prior to start. We scrambled to make sure the online experience was engaging and that we were bringing the room and the phone together to collaborate and discuss. Over three days of workshops, we had consistent feedback that it was the best part of their days, the funnest meetings they'd had, really engaging, and—my fav comment—they were doubtful at first but learned a lot about the process and the topic area. They key for us was just committing to making the online experience first class instead of trying to pull them into the room, so we did a lot of group activities where one group was online with an online facilitator and the another group was in the room. I'm really glad we leaned into online activities for our remote participants. Not only did we get a ton of fantastic outputs from the workshop, the participants were really clear that their experience was stellar as well.

@Austin Govella Peeled off is the right way to describe it. Curious, though, as to why the client didn't foresaw this coming or was it just a matter of "chance"? How did the present participants took it? Great decision on going "remote first"!!
Are you putting AI into Design Sprints?
Guys, I found this super cool website filled with AI tools for basically everything. No surprise that there's a lot on marketing and content but has anybody started experimenting with Ux/Ui GPT? I found this text to image from https://uizard.io SUPER COOL!! Then I came up with a group of guys that are using ChatGPT to create some kind of APIs for e-commerce here wondrai.com and automate everything from ideas to shipping products. What kind of AI are u using? How are u using it? Has it helped you speed up validations or prototypes to MVP?

Top questions from potential clients
Hello everyone, I'm thinking about what I'm likely to be asked once I start putting myself out there as a potential facilitator. In order to be prepared, what are your top questions people ask? ("How much does it cost?" is a given, as is, possibly, "Why so much?") Thanks everyone!

- How much time will it take? Can we hip in and out? We're over our heads now - The decider can come for 1 hour, will it work? - 3 of us will be on premise and 2 more will join on teams. (not a question. This was for real 5 minutes before we got into mapping)
Newbie question: how does size/type of organisation change things
Hi All, I'm just in the process of working through a lot of content and working out who I might want to work with. My background is mainly in medium-large corporate organisations but smaller creative organisations have recently been a much better fit for me in my project management work. Does anyone have experience of working with smaller organisations? If so, do you have any insight into how needs and appetites of the different organisation types/sizes differ so I can try to direct my messaging in the right way to those smaller, more creatively driven organisations? Thanks so much!

it's quite the same. Let me explain... Working with small groups in startups, SMEs and huge corporations has the same principles. Its all about agile collaboration and get things going. In a small team its a game of survival, in a legacy corp a small team that can move swiftly its all about executing so fast that no one in the bureaucratic structure can catch them (so they are the first ones that are showing up with solutions that can be launched). With small groups communication is easier and responsibilities area easily assigned. With large groups its just a mess. My number is 7. Some how this number works on big corps and SME to get shit done and also start building momentum. In startups you might have to rollup your sleves but it's still under the same principle of agility and execution.
