Activity guide

Picking a direction to take is possibly the most challenging point of any project. This activity uses evidence and co-design to efficiently align all team members and stakeholders on what an opportunity (and possible solution) might look like.

What’s it for

Moving from divergent to convergent thinking and working in the early phases of delivery, and updating the direction of a project when new evidence emerges.

What you’ll get

A succinct package that wraps up everything you'll need to justify and align on an approach to delivering your project outcome.

When to do it

At the end of the Discovery phase or when you are wanting to transition from research to build phases.


How it works

Before you start

Step 1: Generate Opportunity statements

Step 2. Build out Opportunities

Step 3. Turning Opportunities in to solutions

What’s next

Once you’ve completed this activity:

  • Share back your opportunities and evidence with stakeholder or the wider team using the Project update presentation
  • Identify the best place to start using the Prioritise customer opportunities activity, which then forms both a program plan for your team and a first opportunity to start designing.
