Frame Your Design Challenge
Properly framing your design challenge is critical to your success. Here’s how to do it just right.
Process Phase
A design challenge articulates the problem you are trying to solve, and helps you define a scope that is neither too narrow nor too broad. The Frame Your Design Challenge worksheet will guide you through a series of steps to get the right frame on your challenge and get started on the right foot. As you do this you’ll ask yourself: Does my challenge drive toward ultimate impact, take into account context and constraints, and allow for a variety of potential solutions? You’ll dial those in, and then refine your challenge until it’s one you’re excited to tackle.
STEPS
Start by taking a first stab at writing your design challenge down.
It should be short and easy to remember. Try composing a single sentence
that conveys the problem you want to solve. We often phrase these as
How Might We questions to set our teams up to be solution-oriented and
to generate a lot of ideas along the way.
