• Apply Design Thinking principles to leadership and HR scenarios.
• Promote a culture of innovation within tech teams.

Overview:

The Design Thinking (DT) process consists of five distinct stages: empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test.

In today's increasingly complex landscape, organizations face challenges that often require specialized approaches. Design Thinking provides a framework for navigating these complexities. By mastering Design Thinking, individuals can tackle difficult problems more effectively, improve communication and persuasion skills, enhance business outcomes, and elevate both organizational culture and personal performance.

• Understanding DT: Learning from users and problems, identifying patterns, creating design models (accounting for model drift), testing the model, evaluating outcomes, and re-engineering solutions.
• Exploring the connection between DT, innovation, and entrepreneurship.
• DT methods and tools: utilizing personas, stakeholder maps, customer journey maps, service blueprints, and business model innovation techniques.
• Applying DT: Cultivating a design mindset, fostering disruptive innovation, adopting an iterative approach, utilizing agile estimation, sharpening critical thinking and problem-solving abilities, strengthening teamwork, leadership readiness, communication, technological fluency, forward-looking perspectives, intercultural and ethical competence, emotional intelligence, self-awareness, negotiation skills, and conflict resolution.

Objectives:

• To grasp the fundamentals and subtleties of DT.
• To explore key concepts, factors, theories, types, and models within DT.
• To experiment with, experience, and practice DT techniques.

Delivery:

This is a 1-day (4-hour) training course comprising:

• lectures (40% - presentation of theories, concepts, models, and interactive discussions),
• group exercises (30% - group dynamics, games, group discussions, and mock conflict resolution),
• individual activities (15% - writing, designing, and peer review),
• and supplementary materials (15% - videos, reading).

Note: Due to the interactive nature of this course, a minimum group size of 3 is required.
