How to shape an idea using Shape Up tutorial: Problem Framing [Part 1/3]

Shaping is all about developing our ideas from abstract to concrete.

In the Shape Up process it’s the stage when we define the key elements of a solution before we consider it ready to bet on.

In essence it’s a design exercise where we go from understanding the problem at hand and defining it, to ideating possible solutions and designing a high-level proposition. This includes defining boundaries and risks!

In this 3 part series we go through the whole process with @Juncal doing a real-life shaping exercise. In this first part we will take you through our process of:

• Analysing the problem space
• Narrowing down the problem
• Defining our target users
• Working on a problem definition using How Might We questions, making sure we cover all the W questions: why, who, when, how
