“I knew we needed a roadmap or a scaffolding to help frame everything out – so that is what the design sprint project did for us. We knew it would give us an idea of what to focus on first because we want our team to be as efficient as possible. As a result, we identified 30 key processes to focus on that, when optimized, will have an outsized and positive ripple effect throughout the organization.”
