Overview
Learn how to apply Design Thinking methodology to address your business's challenges.
Organisations face many challenges in an increasingly dynamic and volatile landscape, including cut-throat competition, surging costs, and tight budgets. To survive, organisations need to adapt and reimagine their business models through innovation.
This interactive course will equip you with high-quality, cost-effective techniques to solve complex challenges, seize new opportunities, and expand your service offerings. You’ll address a real-life organisational problem using Design Lab – an approach to creative problem-solving popularised by IDEO, Google and IBM – plus you’ll receive a one-hour post-course individual coaching session to follow up on how you’re applying what you have learnt.
Through the application of design-led methods, this course allows professionals and teams to resolve corporate challenges and create opportunities for success.
