Recently, John Zeratsky and I were on Lenny’s Podcast to talk about our book Click and our Foundation Sprint method. Lenny had a bunch of great questions that led to a deep dive into exactly how we use back-to-back sprints to help early-stage founders accelerate toward product-market fit in Character Labs.

We use Miro boards as a shared workspace to help founders identify an opinionated founding hypothesis, product strategy, and differentiation. On the podcast, we showed a bunch of examples of these boards from real portfolio companies. (I highly recommend checking out the episode on YouTube to see the boards in action!)

Now, for the first time, I’m sharing the Miro template we use to run Foundation Sprints and Design Sprints with founders in Character Labs. This template includes techniques and hacks that are not in our books Sprint and Click. It’s been optimized after hundreds of sprints with startups we have invested in, and we’re excited to make it available to all founders and product teams.

I hope you find it useful!
