Many times we don’t have the time or resources to conduct a full design sprint - and we spend too much time belaboring the prototyping phase when we could be utilizing tools to help us test quickly and  efficiently.

Build More, Faster - With Collaborative Prototyping

You don’t always have the time or resources to conduct a full design  sprint. But you do want to prototype and test your concept before fully  building it.

By using the right tools, your team can fly through your next prototyping phase and test more efficiently.

In this webinar, Douglas Ferguson (President of Voltage Control) will share collaborative prototyping techniques that bring teams together to build more, faster.

As facilitators, we just got everyone comfy using sticky notes and colored markers, but there’s more to teach.  It’s our goal to show you how, with forethought, conducting remote workshops can be as productive as running them in person.

Three Keys For Running Successful Remote Workshops

I just reserved my spot in this @MURAL webinar, Three Keys For Running Successful Remote Workshops with @JimKalbach and @MarkTippin https://mural.co/webinars/remote-workshops #MURAL_WEBINAR

Design workshops help companies frame challenging problems and find  optimal solutions - but what happens when you're on a globally  distributed team? The chops we've developed for running workshops and  meetings in a room together don't always map to online.

In this webinar, Jim Kalbach (Head of CX, MURAL) and Mark Tippin (Head of Facilitation, MURAL) will share insights from their new book, The Definitive Guide to Facilitating Remote Workshops.

 1. What the three critical elements are you must consider before planning your workshop. (The Three T's)

 2. How to create the flow that guides your participants through the discussions and gets you to the insights.

 3. Insights from industry leaders that are using MURAL to run remote design workshops.

 Plus, pitch your questions to Jim and Mark to answer in our Q&A session at the end of the webinar.

Design sprints allow teams to focus on a single problem over a few days, leading to breakthroughs that might otherwise take months. For teams that can’t get together in the same room, remote design sprints can reap the same or even better results.

Special Touches That Make Your Sprint Kickass

I just reserved my spot in this %40MURAL webinar, Special Touches That Make Your Sprint Kickass with @DhyanaScarano of @AJSmartDesign https://mural.co/webinars/kickass

You’ve read Sprint, watched the training videos, and practiced the exercises. You’re prepped and excited to facilitate your first (or second, or third) design sprint.

But perhaps what you haven’t learned yet is what comes from mastering the real-world sprint experience.

As a facilitator, you have the opportunity to create brief experiences to elevate/punctuate moments throughout the sprint.

These special touches are where impact is made, what clients remember - and what make your sprint kickass.

In this webinar, Dee Scarano (Lead Design Sprint Trainer at AJ&Smart)  will share insights from running hundreds of design sprints and  training people from some of the biggest and best companies in the  world.

Leading creative conversations means guiding them through the challenges of group dynamics. And there are simple ways to frame conversations large and small to navigate those challenges.

Conversations matter. We literally build our lives one conversation  at a time, but we're also defined by the limits of the conversations we  can and can't have.

Leading creative conversations means guiding  them through the challenges of group dynamics. And there are simple ways  to frame conversations large and small to navigate those challenges.

In this webinar, Daniel Stillman  (The Conversation Factory) will share some simple frameworks for  facilitating conversations, workshops, and meetings of all shapes and  sizes - drawing from research gathered on his podcast The Conversation Factory and his upcoming book: 9 Conversations.

Make Meaningful Progress Via Remote Design Sprints

 Right now you may be juggling multiple projects individually or with  your team - multitasking to the extreme - but none of them seem to be  making any meaningful progress.

A design sprint is a great way to  break this cycle by bringing your team together to focus on a single  problem - but what if your team doesn’t have the time or budget to fly  everyone to the same location to run a sprint?

In this webinar, Joe Lalley (Head of Product Management & User Experience at PwC) and Greg Smith (Sr Creative Account Manager at PwC) will share how their team broke the cycle by running a fully remote design sprint.

They’ll reference how they planned and ran the sprint - including the advantages, disadvantages, and surprises.

Does your team apply user insights toward each iteration of your product? Learn how IBM Design experts Eric Morrow and John Murray use a design tool called User Story Mapping to improve user research, team collaboration and product delivery.

How well do you think your product team takes what they learn from  their users and puts it into the next iteration of the product? How well  does your team come to a common understanding of what the next  iteration of the product will look like and then build a product that  reflects that common understanding?

These two  problems — improving your product with user research and effective team  collaboration — can both be solved with a design tool called User Story  Mapping.

After you register, make sure to check out their two part case study breaking down the high level strategy and the granular tactics of running a User Story Mapping workshop.

In this webinar, Robert Skrobe (Dallas Design Sprints) shares how the first global virtual design sprint began, what he learned to improve future sprints,  and how you and your team can run your own virtual design sprint using MURAL.

 If design sprints work well with everyone in the same room, could that same success be achieved in a virtual environment?  More importantly, could design sprint practitioners make the transition from a physical sprint to a remote one?

The first ever global virtual design sprint was done on a simple thesis: If design sprints work well with everyone in the same room, could that same success be achieved in a virtual environment?  More importantly, could design sprint practitioners make the transition from a physical sprint to a remote one?

Last November, we teamed up with design sprint master Robert Skrobe to run the first ever global virtual design sprint, bringing together practitioners, thought leaders and design sprint enthusiasts from Romania, Germany, China, Japan, Australia, South and North America.  Robert and his team organized and facilitated the virtual design sprint event towards a surprisingly successful outcome, allowing everyone involved to practice and apply various design sprint methodologies and processes for a broad variety of interesting ideas and challenges.

In this webinar, Robert Skrobe (Dallas Design Sprints) will explain how you and your team can run your own virtual design sprint using MURAL. We’ll share how the first global virtual design sprint achieved their success, and their plans for an even bigger event this upcoming April.  

Our 45-minute weekly demo gives you basic, hands-on guidance to using MURAL effectively. We cover a range of topics from the basics of adding content onto the canvas to common use cases, depending on the audience.

This session is geared towards new users, but will also include some advanced topics.
