This page will walk you through how to create a Possibility for a Problem, that you can then define, validate and prioritise.
STEP #1
Now let's pick up from where you've just created the initial draft of your Possibility linked to the problem you are solving (see step #6 and #7 from this page, "I want to create a Problem"
- This is the tryble.io Innovation Management area of the Problem (a custom Jira issue type, see here for tryble.io Innovation Management for Jira terms and concepts
- This is the "Define" and "Validate" pages within the Possibility page, start on "Define"
- You can navigate within the app using the tryble.io nav bar, see this page for more details on the tryble.io Innovation Management for Jira nav bar
STEP #2
Similar working through a Problem, the simple tryble framework of "Define" and "Validate" will walk you through a process to think through your Possibility. Let's start with "Define"...
- What type of idea is this possibility?
- Select one or more options from this list that best categorises your idea
- Who is this for?
- Select one or more Personas that this Possibility will deliver value for
- How important is this?
- Relative to other Possibilities you might implement for Problems and the overall context of your organisation, select where this fits on the importance scale
- How difficult will this be to implement?
- If you were to move ahead this Possibility, provide a best estimate on the level of difficulty it would be to implement
- You may need to collaborate with others in the organisation to learn what this implementation look like at a high-level
- How likely is this to solve the problem?
- Remember you can update this as you progress and learn through out the ideation process
- What is the desired outcome?
- In simple words provide a "tweet" length description of what the outcome looks like when this Possibility is implemented successfully
STEP #3
Now that you have "Defined" your Possibility, let's "Validate" that it's a good fit to solve the problem.
- How are we going to validate this?
- Here you can select the method which you validated your idea to solve the problem
- Was it through: data analysis, customer interviews, observation, pilot, prototype, workshop or other method?
- Who are the sponsors?
- Ideas need executive sponsors
- What did we learn through the validation process?
- List anything you learned through this process (e.g. greater customer insight? any points on the desirability, feasibility or viability of the possibility?)
- Should we go ahead with this?
- This is an important question as it determines where this possibility is prioritised
- Should you
- "Proceed - implement now"
- "Proceed - implement later (backlog"
- "Don't proceed - Possibility doesn't stack up"
