Doing design before development is a clearly understood common sense principle. Unfortunately in practice, design is often cut short to leave room for development within a sprint. As a result, the rush to complete a given story within the timebox of a sprint often leads to suboptimal outcomes. In this discussion we will cover the benefits of using a rolling wave approach where by understanding is front loaded / completed before development on a story begins in subsequent sprints.

Learning objectives include:
The benefit of front loading understanding (business, technical, user)
How envisioning and engineering work together (rolling wave theory)
The importance of creating good outcomes and not simply output.

Discussion Format:
Presentation style with examples
Room interaction thru simple online polling (http://slideo.com)
Case Study outlining how an Envisioneering approach improved the outcome.
