How we used design facilitation to understand incident management

Before designing a new product feature, it is crucial to align the team by addressing key questions such as the problem to solve, the target users, and the steps required to address the issue. The Monitor group recently conducted a facilitated design session in Berlin during a Fast Boot, focusing on incident management, which allowed them to collaboratively answer these questions. The session involved three exercises: defining the problem through a boundary critique and the 1-2-4-All technique; building empathy with users by creating empathy map canvases for operational personas; and brainstorming product features based on user needs, culminating in a dot-voting process to prioritize features. The session, which included engineers, designers, and product managers, leveraged diverse perspectives and resulted in a shared understanding and commitment to the project. This participative approach not only facilitated alignment but also encouraged ongoing enthusiasm and commitment to the development process, prompting consideration of how to incorporate this energy into their regular, asynchronous workflow.
