Design Thinking Workshop: Experience Based Roadmap
Date: 22nd May 2020
A discussion took place among the members of the Accord Project in which we brainstormed features for the AP Word add-in, and then sorted them by whether we want the feature to be available to users in the short term vs long term.
We then further divided the features into three categories:
Stage 1 - short term - we know we will build this
