Overview of Design Sprint X
Hi there
I’m Steve, the co-founder of Design Sprint X. I'd love to briefly share the story of how dsx was born.
it all started back in 2016 when the design sprint book was released. Luke, DSX co-founder, ordered it just two days after it came out. I picked it up in 2017 and that’s when things clicked. Fast forward to 2018, we actually met while consulting for the same organisation;. we hit it off immediately, shared values, shared frustrations and the same question on both of our minds: what if we built something better together?
So in June 2019, we founded Design Sprint X, just the two of us with a big belief in changing the way people work. Early on we launched tools like the crazy 8s timer, shared our sprint deck publicly that got over 2000 downloads.
Then came the pandemic. In 2020 we had big plans, but like everyone else covid hit and those plans had to shift overnight. We adapted, took our sprints remote, kept pushing. It wasnt easy but it made us even clearer on our misson. By 2022, we were finally back in the room again, running live workshops with teams like BP and honestly the energy was off the charts. Since then we’ve grown every year. In 2023, we celebrated 5 years of DSX with a brilliant team of 10 expert facilitators. Now, in 2025 here we are. Still sprinting , still solving, still helping teams work better faster and together. This course you’re about to take its build from everything we learned along the way, successes, failures and all the hard earned clarity in between. we genuinely hope you enjoy this course and it brings real value to your and your team.
