The Why?

Describe the purpose of the session and the outcome it will yield for a team.

Have you heard of a Story Mapping Session? It's when a team gets together to make a visual representation of the user journey and what features the product needs.

Basically, it helps the team understand the user's point of view, pick which features are most important to them, and make a plan that works for the user's journey. With story mapping, teams can find the most crucial product features and break them down into smaller, easier-to-handle parts. It's a pretty useful technique!
