Workshop: Design Thinking for Innovation

Today innovation is everyone’s business. Whether you are a manager in a global corporation, an entrepreneur starting up, in a government role, or a teacher in an elementary school, everyone is expected to get lean – to do better with less. And that is why we all need design thinking.
At every level in every kind of organization, design thinking provides the tools you need to become an innovative thinker and uncover creative opportunities that are there – you’re just not seeing them yet.
In this workshop, we provide a high level overview of design thinking and work with a model containing four key questions and several tools to help you understand design thinking as a problem solving approach. We will practice a set of essential methods and create a prototype.
After the workshop you will have an overview of what design thinking is, ground knowledge of where can be applied and several ideas where to get started when deploying design thinking in your organization.

Participants:

  • Business Analysts and Innovation Managers
  • Project Managers and Product Managers
  • Marketing and Sales Staff
  • Executives and HR Staff
  • Anybody willing to learn how to create innovative ideas and creative solutions
