Introduction
Jake Knapp worked with Google and Google Ventures for over ten years before deciding to focus on writing full-time.
His book, Sprint: How to Solve Big Problems and Test New Ideas in Just Five Days, is the result of this transition.
As the title suggests, a sprint is a five-day business process – after it's complete, you'll have critical feedback about whether your ideas for marketing, customer experience, or product design will work.
Knapp designed this process while working on projects like Gmail or Google X, and has since run his 'sprints' with over 150 companies, ranging from Slack and Mozilla to KLM Airlines.
