1. Brainstorm question: “How Might We”
69
WHY
•The HMW question purposely maintains a level of ambiguity, and opens up the exploration
space to a range of possibilities.
WHAT
•It's a re-wording of the core users, their needs and your insights about them, that was
uncovered in the Empathise and Define stages.
•“How" suggests that we do not yet have the answer. “How” sets aside prescriptive briefs
and explores a variety of endeavours instead of merely executing on what we “think” the
solution should be.
•“Might" emphasises that our responses may only be possible solutions. It also allows for
exploration of multiple possible solutions, not settling for the first that comes to mind.
•“We" immediately brings in the element of a collaborative effort. It suggests that the idea
for the solution lies in collective teamwork.
HOW
•Begin with your outcome statement or problem statement. Start by rephrasing and framing
your outcome statement as several questions by adding “How Might We” at the beginning.
•Break that larger outcome statement challenge up into smaller actionable and meaningful
questions. Five to ten “How Might We” questions for one outcome statement is a good
starting point.
•Look at your “How Might We” questions and ask yourself if they allow for a variety of
solutions. If they don’t, broaden them. If they are too broad, narrow them down. Aim for a
narrow enough frame to let you know where to start your Brainstorm.
Outcome statement: Minimise
the time it takes to get the songs
in the desired order for listening
How Might We … reduce the time it
takes to curate music?
How Might We … create a framework
for selecting predefined music order?
How Might We … use song selection
history to suggest music order?
How Might We … provide alternative
platforms to make songs available?

2. Generating ideas
70
APPROACH
•Creativity comes from a blend of individual and collective ideation (Alex Osborn,
1950)
•Switching between the two modes of individual and collective ideation sessions
can be seamless—and highly productive.
•Creative thinking techniques help to approach problems from new perspectives.
WHY
•To sit the team down with a blank pieceof paper and ask them to come up with
ideas will likely result in failure. Likewise, to have everyone shout out their own
ideas is likely to result in failure.
BEST PRACTICES
•Set a time limit
•Start with a problem statement, outcome statement, possible questions, a plan, or
a goal and stay focused on the topic.
•Defer judgement or criticism, including non-verbal.
•Encourage weird, wacky and wild ideas
•Aim for quantity
•Build on each others' ideas.
•Be visual.
•One conversation at a time.

Technique: Brainwalking
Idea Card 1
Idea Card 2
Idea Card 3Idea Card 4
Idea Card 5
WHY
•Brainwriting serves as a means to maximise the initial braindump, or as a way to
refocus if other ideation methods go haywire.
•Brainwalking gets people out of their seats, gets them moving, keeps energy
levels up and mixes things up enough so that the group as a whole does not get
stuck.
WHAT
•Brainwriting involves participants write ideas onto cards and then pass their
idea cards on to the next person. The next person builds on the ideas of the
previous.
•Brainwalking is similar, but participants have to get up from their seats and
move to another spot around the brainstorming table.
•Participants perform this technique in complete silence, building on instead of
criticising, other’s ideas.
HOW
•Brief participants on the problem statement, goals and important user insights.
•Jot down ideas on their idea cards for 3-5 minutes.
•Move on to the next seat or table to continue writing down their ideas on the
other participant’s idea card. Ideally repeat 3-10 times.
•Write as many ideas as possible to maximize the output and variation.
•Afterwards, each participant briefly presents the thoughts on the idea card
he/she ends up with, to spark new streams of thinking or combinations of ideas.
71
72. Copyright © 2018 IQbusiness
3. Evaluating and eliminating ideas
GOAL
•Ideas are evaluated, compared, ranked, clustered and ditched in an
attempt to pull together a few great ideas to act on (‘convergent stage’)
•The aim is spotting potential winners, or combinations of winning
attributes, from a number of ideas.
WHY
•At some point in your ideation session, you’ll have reached a critical
mass of ideas, and it will become unproductive to attempt to keep
pushing for more.
•This is different from the natural creative slumps that teams experience
throughout ideation sessions, and means it is a good point to stop and
focus on pruning.
TECHNIQUES

4. Selecting ideas
WHY
•To choose ideas which fit into your goals, your research about your users, their needs,
and your insights about them which you’ve condensed into your problem statement—
which is also called your outcome statement.
APPROACH
•Ensure that ideas that have made it elimination exercises are evaluated based on
selection criteria.
•Rank ideas according to how they meet these criteria.
SELECTION CRITERIA
•Does it fit with people's needs? Is there demand?
•Does it really meet the goals set initially?
•Does it meet the requirements in our problem statement/outcome statement?
•Does it answer our “How Might We” questions in a satisfying way?
•Is it different enough from what exists to add additional value?
•Do we have access to the budget—enough to implement even partially?
•Will we be able to roll it out with the available resources?
•Can we get approval from decision makers?

Prototype guidelines
Design-thinking is all about action. Once the
team has discussed the basic concept, get
building.1 Just start building
2 Don’t spend too much time
The longer the amount of time spent on building
the prototype becomes, the more emotionally
attached the design team can get to the solution.
Test the prototype against the user behaviours,
expectations and needs.4 Build with the user in mind
All prototypes should have central testing metrics.
The prototype was built in a specific way, to test
and get feedback on the presented solution.
3 Remember what is being tested

Evaluation of possible solutions that were
developed based on the customer value
propositions in order to:
• Gather user feedback
• Identify limitations and constraints
• Incorporate feedback into next iteration
89. Copyright © 2018 IQbusiness
…continued
Metrics can be
quantitative or
qualitative
The type of metrics
that should be used
are dependant on the
nature of the solution
Metrics have the
ability to show you
what works and what
does not work
A metric is an
actionable unit of
measure that is used to
decide how the next
version of a prototype
will be iterated
How?
Establish clear and measureable metrics
90. Copyright © 2018 IQbusiness
Testing methods
A/B Testing
A/B testing is type of method
where 2 variants of a
prototype are sent to users.
They both fulfil the same
function but do so in a
different manner.
Observation Testing
Observation testing is a
method where users are
observed when they are
testing the prototype.
Live Testing
Live testing is a method
where one version of the
prototype is sent to the
public and users interact
with the prototype.
90
91. Copyright © 2018 IQbusiness
Best practice tips for gathering feedback
Tailor the feedback according to your prototype
Test your prototypes on the right people | extreme users
Ask the right questions & keep an open mind
Be neutral when presenting your ideas | refrain from trying to sell your idea.
Adapt while testing | if you think that your planned script for the testing
session does not work well, feel free to deviate from it and improvise during
the testing session
Let the user contribute ideas | ask your users how the product or service
could be improved for them
