This course will give you all the concepts, tools and techniques of design thinking together with the user manual to apply them successfully to your own work !

In this course you will learn everything that makes up the entire Design Thinking process ; a methodology which is fundamental to ingraining innovation and user-centricity within your company.

For every tool I teach (what), I share the best practices on its application (how) and highlight its purpose and benefits (why). I illustrate each one of them using practical cases and homework for you to learn, practice and reflect in a safe trial environment.

You will also learn that, beyond adopting a process, applying design thinking means adopting a new mindset and new ways of working which will shake up your established organization in its management and leadership models, culture, skills and processes.

This will give you a head start on the understanding and identification of the many challenges and changes your company will need to be managing to optimize the benefits of its design thinking projects.

This course is divided into three major parts:

1) Understanding design thinking’s core principles and key benefits

2) Mastering the process by learning its concepts, tools and techniques

3) Creating new ways of working to ensure a successful application of the process and the adoption of the right mindset

This design thinking course is designed as a comprehensive course together with its user manual. By the end of the course, not only will you be able to run the entire process on your own but you will also get to grips with the many organizational and human dynamics at play within your core cross-functional project team and with their internal stakeholders. The combination of both learnings will set you up for success.
