Workshop

Discover and address fundamental predicaments in shipping products.

You will work with a team to deliver a product to market that has more value than your competitors. Parts of your product work as designed: Other parts are defective. You must remove defects, but if you spend too much time removing them, the value of your product will decline.

We will debrief how teams dealt with these predicaments. We will explore how to make more effective trade-off decisions throughout the product development process.

Objectives

  • Experience the interplay logic and emotion brings to tradeoff decisions
  • Discover patterns for how teams make tradeoff decisions
  • Formulate strategies for making more effective tradeoff decisions
