Most Agile teams are excellent at managing the now, but struggle to look beyond the next three months. In an era of rapid technological shifts and unpredictable markets, a deterministic approach to roadmapping often leads to “more of the same” rather than true innovation.
Design Futuring – a discipline traditionally reserved for speculative art, urban planning, and high-level politics – offers a radical alternative. Instead of trying to predict the future, we use it to shape it. This hands-on workshop bridges the gap between speculative design and pragmatic backlog building. You will learn how to move beyond user stories for today and start crafting backlogs for tomorrow.
