    What makes a good Design Sprint Master

    The Certified Design Sprint Master is a facilitator/coach capable of achieving effective results by guiding the team through the 6-phase process while also managing the group dynamics.

    The Certified Design Sprint Master has both the necessary knowledge, plus the capacity to transfer that experience to others, and on the other side, the ability to facilitate the team discussions and dynamics and decide the best course of action when it comes to unique, distinctive Design Sprint scenarios.

    “Congratulations to all Design Sprint Facilitators and Design Sprint Masters listed above for successfully passing the DST & DSP exams and proving a high level of expertise when it comes to facilitating great design sprints.”
