## What to expect from a Business Sprint

Copy Link

Sprints are six-hour courses you can complete any time over a 30-day period. This on-demand learning "box set" can be completed spread out over a month to fit in with your personal and professional life.

\

You may be familiar with sprints as a term used in Agile product development, defined as a set duration of time during which specific work must be completed and made ready for review. With these new on-demand courses from MIT Sloan Executive Education, we are inviting you to think of your *Business Sprint* in a similar way, as a set time period in which to work, experiment, solve a challenge, and share your results.

\

When you participate in a *Business Sprint*, you may also recognize research and development patterns from product development domains. We are translating these concepts into a business context where we can employ key elements of a sprint cycle to help solve complex business challenges and turn them into opportunities.

\

Your *Business Sprint* will begin by defining a sprint goal—the business challenge or opportunity you will break down, work on, and then reassemble in the four stages of our sprint relay. During these relays you will be provided with course content in the form of written content, videos, and podcasts that present the specific course frameworks and share examples of how these frameworks have been applied to solve real-world business challenges.

\

After you have completed the four stages in your course workbook, you'll submit your sprint review, which will capture the insights and the progress you've made. As a final step, we'll provide you with a retrospective sprint in the form of an audio podcast that captures and reinforces the key inputs and outputs of an MIT Sloan Business *Sprint* .

\

At MIT, our motto of *Men and Manus* (mind and hand) means that applicable education is our objective—and we think it's yours, too. We hope this learning experience will give you key foundational insights and frameworks that can be applied in your teams and organizations today. This sprint and potentially those to follow you will help you accelerate digital transformation in your company by building the ability to resolve complex business challenges and the confidence to do so.

***"The course on Generative AI was effective and efficient. The sprint relay format helped to build on concepts discus sed in previous sprints. The additional references to other insights reinforced the concepts. Being exposed to and working with real-world implementations was invaluable. The course flowed well, and the interactive content was perfect."***

***“The course presentation style, a perfect blend of clarity, simplicity, and engaging communication with real-life scenarios and practice sessions with AI, made learning and assimilating the concepts covered a delightfully fun experience for me! The explanations about the AI personas helped me understand what was happening during my negotiation sessions with the bots during the course. Getting immediate AI analysis, feedback, and tips for improving my negotiation skills after each negotiation attempt was exciting!”***
