The Develop stage include creative methods develop blue sky-ideas, visualize new service, prototype it and test. Through visualisation you could synthesise often complex ideas which will help you with communication and understanding with users and other stakeholders.
To do this you can adopt for example:
- Popcorn Ideas, Six Thinking Hats, That is Impossible!, Provocation, Fresh Eyes and Brainstorming to produce a lot of creative ideas,
- Voting and Clustering, and Affinity Diagram to select the most prosperous ideas,
- Service Blueprint, Poster, Service Image to visualise the new service and
- Prototyping and Experience prototyping to prototype the new service.
