Narrative Driven Development (NDD): The method that drives collaboration of teams for impactful software delivery
Narrative Driven Development (NDD) is a proven time-based modeling approach that unites product, design and engineering in a human-centered way. Whether you're using a whiteboard, a diagramming tool like Miro, or using the Narrative Studio, NDD provides the principles and techniques to transform your collaboration into cohesive, outcome-driven narratives that represent a universal understanding which place you in the “pit of success” for your users, customers, teams, and business sponsors.
At its core, NDD bonds the social and the technical aspects of software delivery. Narratives create unity in user outcomes and journeys, through organization of your project's requirements, specifications and queries. Narratives pave a clear path to success, by enabling you to brainstorm, plan and execute your projects in the most natural and human-centric way; which means more accessibility of information, clearer specifications, and higher quality outcomes that deliver software in half the time.
