Discovery Team is also known as the core team. It's really 3 key people. The product owner officially responsible for the functionality, what product does, the lead designer which is usually an interaction designer responsible for the usability of the product, and the lead developer responsible for the feasibility. Is it possible to do what you'd like it to do?
產(chǎn)品探索團(tuán)隊又被稱為核心團(tuán)隊。團(tuán)隊里有三個重要角色:產(chǎn)品經(jīng)理定義產(chǎn)品功能、交互設(shè)計師負(fù)責(zé)產(chǎn)品的可用性、主程序員決定產(chǎn)品的可行性,最終判決你的產(chǎn)品構(gòu)想能否實現(xiàn)。
The three of them together are working identify the minimum viable product which is really the smallest possible product that people will choose to buy, can figure out how to use, and you can deliver it when you need it.
三者協(xié)同合作,定義基本產(chǎn)品。一款用戶愿意購買并明白怎樣使用,而你也有能力開發(fā)出來的產(chǎn)品。
Now, those three people work together very closely. The product manager and designer are typically side by side full-time. The lead developer is more consulting his part-time 'cause their regular day job of course is to write software. Now even though officially product owner is responsible for functionality, the designer on usability and the engineer on feasibility the little secret in software teams is that (the truth is) usually the best innovations actually come from the lead developer. The reason for that is the lead developer typically knows what's possible better than anyone else.
開發(fā)過程中,他們應(yīng)該像桃園結(jié)義的三兄弟般親密合作,特別是產(chǎn)品經(jīng)理和交互設(shè)計師,應(yīng)該如影隨形。作為參謀的主程序員偶爾會缺席,畢竟他的主要工作是編程。雖然名義上產(chǎn)品經(jīng)理負(fù)責(zé)產(chǎn)品功能設(shè)計、交互設(shè)計負(fù)責(zé)可用性、程序員負(fù)責(zé)可行性??捎袀€秘密一般人我不告訴:好點子通常都是主程序員想出來的,因為主程序員更清楚什么可行。
So while officially you all have those responsibility. Really what's going on is all 3 of you trying identify that minimum viable product.
因此,雖然角色不同,但每項任務(wù)大家都有份參與,共同打造出基本產(chǎn)品。
One last point in terms of location. But at all humanly possiblely you wanna keep those 3 core located right in the same location, and if you have to, have somebody remote, uh... the product manager and designer should absolutely be setting side by side.
最后強調(diào)一下,三種角色的辦公位置。既然是產(chǎn)品"三兄弟" 把他們放在一個"桃園"里辦公 再合適不過了,即使有角色要變動工作地點,也不能拆散產(chǎn)品經(jīng)理和產(chǎn)品設(shè)計師。
