Two Big Challenges


Build and deliver software efficiently !

Create innovative solutions !

Reality Check


Efficiency: Agile and Lean Methods & Principles

Eliminate waste

Build quality in

Learn constantly

Deliver fast

Engage everyone

Keep getting better

Timeboxing

Increments

Scrum

Test-driven development

Continous integration

Refactoring

....


How does Innovation get into the Backlog?


Design & Design Thinking

Design:

A process of designing

objects and systems.

(„gestalten“)

Design Thinking:

A process model and a

cmprehensive body of

knowledge to solve problems

and generate innovative

ideas.

8 Agile Breakfast Bern, 28.5.2014, Design Thinking

Design Thinking is a non-linear Process


Iterative Approach: From Challenge Space to Solution Space

Starting the Process: Empathize


Empathy is the heart of a human-centered design process

The Design Thinking Process starts with empathy not with specifications or market data research

Tools of anthropology and ethnography

Studying users and their behaviours

Not an attempt to find THE solution, but a way to open up a deep understanding

Without the understanding of what others see, feel, and experience, design is a pointless task.

12 Design Thinking for Mobility International AG 17. Juni 2014

Empathy = Co-Design++

Beyond the more traditional methods associated with user-centred and participatory design

Greater understanding of the scope of the situation by bringing real users inside the design process rather than reaching out to them through interviews or focus groups.

Immerse

The problems you are trying to solve are rarely your own.


Engage


Observe


Perception is (our) reality!

The fresh eye problem: Our own filters


Define


Define

Synthesizing empathy findings into compelling needs and insights

Scoping a specific and meaningful challenge.

Reframing the Original Question

Design Thinking for Mobility International AG 22 17. Juni 2014

Ideate


Team Creativity


Prototype and Test


Why Prototype?

Instead of thinking about what to build, build it in order to think.


Prototypes have three important roles within the Design Thinking process.

I Explore Ideas II Evaluate Ideas III Communicate Ideas


Design Thinking meets Lean/Agile

Similar mindsets

Radical customer orientation

Incremental and iterative development

Prototyping

Constant learning

Fast Delivery

Self-organization

Continous improvement

…

Excellent Base for an integrated approach


Agile Development + Design Thinking = Better Requirements Analysis


Requirements Engineering

Elicitation Documentation Validation Management Communication

Discover needs Share Findings

Validate Solutions

Combining Design Thinking and Lean/Agile


Design Thinking

provides

innovative ideas and

better requirements

Lean/Agile Methods

help build and deliver

solutions

more efficiently

DEVIATION

Integration of Design Thinking into Agile Projects

Design Thinking as an initial phase before implementation

DT helps teams to find problems worth solving and create effectively innovative solutions.

Agile techniques help teams to build these solutions efficiently.


Vision

Initial Backlog

Prototypes

Integration of Design Thinking into Agile Projects

Design Thinking as an ongoing activity in agile projects

Projects with changing or not well understood requirements (eventualities of unknown unknowns)

Scrum Master as Design Thinking moderator

Project Lifetime relation of Product Owner and Team


Summary

Promising combination of two complementary approaches

Fast track to innovative customer-centric solutions

Reducing risk (diverging from a fixed path further down the development process leads to increases in time, effort and costs compared with the identification of alternative routes and potential obstacles during the initial design phase)

Establishing a guiding vision

Enabling powerful and creative development teams

Re-aligning Business and IT
