I had the pleasure of working with Reimo when the research department of the Estonian National Museum enlisted his expertise to facilitate a design sprint aimed at developing a prototype for our website. The site has to cater to a diverse array of functions, services, and roles that the museum fulfils as a cultural, social, and economic institution, foregrounding particularly the academic research results and impacts. One of the unique challenges we faced was the varied audience we serve, ranging from the general public to scholars in specific academic fields. Unlike research teams in universities, whose primary focus is often academics and students, we needed a solution that could effectively resonate with both general audiences and fellow scholars. Reimo crafted a two-part workshop that fostered an open and participatory problem-solving process. Instead of just drafting potential user needs, design sprints are designed to collaborate in designing the solution themselves by merging a variety of perspectives. In his role as facilitator, Reimo skillfully navigated discussions, ensuring that ideas flowed freely while guiding us toward productive outcomes. His ability to facilitate discussions around alternative pathways and streamline ideas was valuable. The result? A prototype, which is ready for the next stage: user testing and finally, integration into our broader institutional web, standing as a distinct and visible unit. I can recommend Reimo to any team seeking a facilitator who can guide the design process and empower teams to collectively craft innovative solutions.
