Check-in with team dynamics and emotions during a sprint.
Why the Emotional Rollercoaster?
In a design sprint, a group of experts is brought together and tasked with solving a complex challenge. Getting this diverse group of people to achieve synergy in a very short amount of time can be a bumpy ride, with many ups and downs and heated moments. As design sprint Facilitators, you need to know how and when the human dynamics will shift and guide your team through the storm.
