What problem does it solve?
Design Sprint teams often stall on Wednesday when deciding which solution sketch to prototype, defaulting to consensus averaging or endless debate instead of a clear Decider call. This Skill structures Day 3 of a Design Sprint so the team moves from Tuesday's sketches to a build-ready storyboard in one day.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Structured decision sequence: Runs the art museum layout, silent heat map dot-voting, 3-minute speed critiques per sketch, straw poll, and the Decider's supervote, plus the rumble-vs-all-in-one call.
- Storyboard production: Guides the team to a 5-15 panel storyboard covering the target moment plus setup and outcome panels, specific enough that Thursday's prototype build starts without re-debating design.
- Templates and worked example: Ships a canonical artifact template and a complete Brainshelf book-catalog example showing heat map results, critique notes, supervote rationale, and a 9-panel storyboard.
- Use Case: A product team finishing Tuesday's sketching session uses this Skill Wednesday morning to vote on four anonymized sketches, capture the Decider's supervote, and end the day with a locked storyboard that two builders can execute Thursday.
Quick Start
Run the Design Sprint Wednesday decide-and-storyboard session using Tuesday's four attribution-stripped sketches and produce the storyboard artifact from the template.
