Guides teams through the complete Google Ventures Design Sprint process — from sprint planning and recruitment through the 5-day structure (Map, Sketch, Decide, Prototype, Test) to post-sprint synthesis. Covers all core exercises including How Might We, Lightning Demos, Crazy 8s, solution sketching, storyboarding, realistic prototyping, and 5-act user testing, with adaptations for remote/hybrid formats and compressed sprint variations.
