technology, and the requirements for business success.”

Composite Sketch

• Semi-Fictional

• Give them a Name, Age, Gender, etc

• “Enough” detail for empathy

• Get Team Buy-in for Target User

• Initially *only* focus on Target User


Point of View statements (POV) – Mad Lib

Isolate:

• USER• NEED• INSIGHTInto:

• [USER] needs to [USER’S NEED] because [SURPRISING INSIGHT]

“Semi-Pro Drummer needs portable, silent drum kit so he can practice while travelling on business to keep up his skills.”


How Might We (HMW)

• Create a list of HMW based on POV• USER + NEED + INSIGHT

1. How to create/produce lighter weight Drum Stands?

2. How to create portable/folding drum kits?

3. How to create a quick set-up drum kit?

4. How to reduce the volume of drum kit?

5. ….

Brain Storming Rules

1. One Conversation at a Time

2. Go for Quantity3. Headline!

4. Build on the ideas of Others

5. Encourage “Wild Ideas”

6. Be VISUAL…

7. Stay on Topic

8. Defer Judgment – No

BLOCKING(http://dschool.stanford.edu/wp-content/themes/dschool/method-cards/brainstorm-rules.pdf)


“Stickies” Grouping & Voting

• Start to Group & Categorize

• Focus on Quantity and Quality

• Look for “Patterns”

• Employ Group Voting


Double Hump of Ideas

Point of View statements (POV) – Wanted Ad

• Think Craigslist or Kijiji

Drummer Wanted. Any skill level. (Newmarket)Two guitarists seeking drummer with small portable kit for ambient space rock jamming/song-writing collaboration.

We're both in our early 40's, pretty easy-going intermediate level players, hoping for about a session per week in a moderate-volume home rehearsal setting in the Newmarket area.

Any skill and experience level, but must be comfortable with jamming and into being a part of a ground-up creative process.
