Design Thinking in Action This presentation will show you how to use Human Centered Design (HCD) to identify--and design for--critical moments in the employee experience that impact your customers' experiences. Learn how tools and approaches such as segmentation, persona development and journey mapping can help project teams improve employee engagement and the behaviors that drive customer satisfaction. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs. Each professional development activity yields one PDU for one hour spent engaged in the activity. Some limitations apply and can be found in the Ways to Earn PDUs section that discusses PDU activities and associated policies. Fractions of PDUs may also be reported. The smallest increment of a PDU that can be reported is 0.25. This means that if you spent 15 minutes participating in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.25 PDU. If you spend 30 minutes in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.50 PDU.

Design Sinking: How to Fail at Design Thinking - and How to Do It Better Design Thinking is ubiquitous these days. From developing new payment processes for car parks to optimizing the patient experience in public hospitals, from designing blockchain scenarios for savings banks to improving the employee experience at tech start-ups, from building intrapreneurial ventures for mobility providers to designing business models for aircraft parts logistics, from large-scale digital transformation campaigns on enterprise level to designing whole strategies of start-ups, SMEs and major corporations alike... Looking back to the last years as an innovation consultant and facilitator, the list could go on and on. Browsing all those cases one might easily get the impression that Design Thinking is some kind of 'magic wand' to just do it all - better, faster, cheaper and of course instantly ready for implementation, with a 100% guaranteed success rate. Germans would call it a 'Eierlegende Wollmilchsau' (engl. fig. 'egg laying wool-milk-pig'). Of course, it is not. Nevertheless, it has undoubtedly proven to be a highly important tool to master the transformations we're facing on so many levels.

You Design Think More Than You Know Today's world is very volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous. What used to work, seems to work less efficient or effective. The pandemic shows us that the consequences in daily life can be huge. For some of us, this means confusion and struggle to find solutions to problems. Others reflect on what is happening and reframe this VUCA world as an opportunity for creating new products, services of systems. Start to think as a designer. Designing solutions serves users and customers. Real human beings with names, moods, needs and problems. We sometimes forget, because while creating solutions we fall in love with them. Our attention focuses on the solution. Design thinking has made empathizing with the customer one of the main anchor points. You always remember for whom you are designing and creating. How many ideas would you need to find the one that fits the problem of your user? Ten, a hundred or maybe more? The answer is, more than you think now. Start with questioning the problem. Play and collect different perspectives on the problem. Every single perspective leads to different ideas. In this way you easily reach a great number of solutions. We will share a few relevant, creative exercises so you can challenge your own dominant reaction to solving problems. Having this personal experience will help you to adopt a design thinking mindset to help your clients.
