Remote Sprint Playbook
Think of this as the instruction manual of your Remote Sprint. It breaks your sprint down into 6 manageable phases, coaching you step-by-step through each task so that you can facilitate with confidence. It does all the heavy lifting, freeing you up to focus on what matters most: your team.
Remote Sprint Plan
A 5 day sprint structured to accommodate the slower pace of remote work, with a modular format that allows you to adjust your sprint period to suit your teams availability.
Includes alternating sessions of online and offline activities to keep your team comfortable and focused.
"The preparation was stellar, with multifaceted design activities that kept us on track towards our goal."
Katie Lernihan - Business Development & Pre-Sales
Digital Sprint Room
A complete digital workspace made up of 12 interlinked boards set up and ready to go. What's more is that we've designed our boards so that they double as both activity and presentation boards, meaning you don't have to switch between apps.
- Boards for each sprint day & session
- Tasks laid out chronologically
- Think-spaces for each team member
- Boards for house-keeping, on-boarding and user testing
- Mural & Miro versions
"Excellent experience despite the challenge of being remote. First time using Mural templates and loved it! Simple and very effective."
Ronan O'Connell - Senior Director of Advanced Analytics
Remote Sprint Brief
A detailed brief template that frames your sprint clearly and keeps everyone tightly aligned with objectives and outcomes right from the start.

Checklists
Staying organised and detail-focused can be a challenge when conducting the "big picture" work of a design sprint. With this in mind, we created 19 detailed checklists, conveniently organised according to the phase of your Remote Sprint. Makes staying on top of your tasks a breeze!
Sprint Replay Report
Wondering how best to share your sprint results and explain your solution to stakeholders? Look no further.
The Sprint Replay Report is a comprehensive 50 page report that allows you to document your design sprint in detail so that anyone external to the process can easily understand your process, its outcomes and next steps.

Preview > Planning & Onboarding
In our webinar: "How to run remote design sprints" we are sharing ways to structure and plan the sprint to accommodate busy schedules and different time zones, as well as best practices for onboarding the sprint team members.
You asked. We answered.
Can I use this kit if I’ve never run a design sprint?
No. This kit doesn’t teach you the design sprint process. It provides those who are already familiar with the process with the right tools to explain the concepts, conduct the exercises and structure the sprint within a remote context.
How do I receive my Kit?
Once you've purchased your Kit, you will be taken to a download page. Your Kit consists of two components: A Remote Sprint Playbook, along with a number of supporting materials. Download the Playbook first, and read the Orientation chapter, which will tell you in detail how to download the rest of you Kit.
What if I don’t use Mural?
It's no problem if you've never used Mural before. We provide you with clear instructions on how to download and install your Mural boards. We also include Mural tutorials and on-boarding exercises in our Facilitation Guide in case you or your team need further assistance.
Will there be a Miro version available soon?
Yes! On August 1st we launched the MIRO version of our digital workspace.
Why does the Kit contain digital boards for each work session and not each Sprint day?
For two reasons. Firstly, while it is totally possible to put all the activities for one day on one board, we found that many elements on one board make Mural and Miro more prone to freezing and crashing. We therefore broke each day up into work sessions, with boards for each. Secondly, as we designed our Sprint Plan to be modular, having boards for each session allows you to easily split your sprint over a longer or shorter time period, rather than having to come back to the same board a few times.
Surely I can find these templates online for free?
Unfortunately not! Every part of our Kit has been built from scratch based on our years of experience as facilitators and educators, and tried and tested with real clients. It is possible to find other guidelines and articles that give suggestions for how best to run a remote sprint, as well as some elements that will help you. But there's nothing that lays it all out, paint-by-numbers style as we do. For a full comparison between our Kit and other guides on the market, go here.
