The 5 days of the sprint have the great advantage of allowing focus on a complex challenge, bringing stakeholders and decision-makers together, and enabling strategic alignment.
If you have the opportunity to run it within a single week, don’t hesitate. However, if that’s not an option, we can always adapt the sprint structure to ensure the key people are present.
