We will never say that just running a Design Sprint will solve all your challenges. We are true believers of the process because it gets you started with a solid base. It is a pressure-cooker that boosts a project or challenge forward.
For the Design Sprint process to truly prosper, proper preparation is needed in the weeks before the Design Sprint. The better prepared you are, the more valuable and most likely validated your outcomes will be. These outcomes will be the start of your next steps towards a final (live) solution.
