AGILE Workshop Outline (Crazy 8’s/Sketches/Wireframes)
<aside>
💡 Using the FigJam embedded timer + lo-fi tunes is super fun!
It is possible that you may not get through all of these steps in one sitting - splitting this agile workshop into 2 days could be helpful or also doing the lo-fi / hi-fi designs async & assigning flows to pairs / individual apprentices will provide a sense of ownership & accountability.

Prep: All will need blank paper for Crazy 8s

Step 1: Critical Thinking - 5 min
- Discuss identified gaps in each User Journey Map.
Step 2: Decide - 5 min
- Everyone gets 2 votes each.
- Pick a point on each User Journey Map you think is most important to focus on.
Step 3: How Might We’s - 10 min per User Journey (5 min writing, 5 min affinity mapping)
- Rephrase potential failures into a positive design challenge or opportunity.
- Example: “Artists might not want to go through all the steps to get started making investments” → ”How Might We make it really easy and fun to get set up with all the info RH wants from them to get started?”
- Affinity map the HMW’s to see what the team is aligning on.
- Agree on which group we want to tackle —this should be fairly obvious but will discuss if not.
- Agree on a team-approved HMW — pick one winner or rewrite to summarize!
Step 4: Crazy 8s sketch! - 8 min per User Journey
- Sketch out 8 ideas in 8 minutes per HWM question.
- Sketches can be UI, stick figures, multi-screen, etc. this is all about getting concepts down!
Step 5: Vote - ASYNC
- Pick your favorite 3 sketches/ideas and walk the team through your thinking:
- Upload to Figjam area.
- Vote on 3-5 concepts to build into low-fi wireframes.
Step 6: User flows - 15 min
- Start ideating upon a happy path for your user flows (as many as you’d like). Everyone picks one to work on and then we can evaluate and refine async?
