INSIKTER FÖR INNOVATION
In the course INSIKTER FÖR INNOVATION you will deepen your knowledge of the first half of the Design Thinking process where focus lies on learning more about your users and the problem that you want to solve.
During two days you will learn the mindset, methods and tools that will help you to understand your challenge better – to empathise with your users, map out relevant dependencies and stakeholders, structure your findings, and analyse them in order to develop solutions that meet real needs.
You will be working with easy to grasp exercises and as well as real cases taken from your own organisation and context. Our experienced coaches will equip you in how to set off in the right direction from the very beginning.
You work in interdisciplinary teams together with professionals from different backgrounds in this course. We encourage you to bring more people from your organisation if possible, as you will test applying your knowledge in your own organisation between course day one and two.
The course requires some previous knowledge of Design Thinking or Service Design.
You will learn:
• The mindset and the skills that will help you to empathise with your users and understand their needs. • Tools to map and understand the relation to other stakeholders and the surrounding systems. • Helpful methods and tools for mapping what you already know, what you need to learn more about, and how to structure your findings and stories. • Practical tools and skills such as empathy mapping, personas, and user journey mapping. • An analytical systematic thinking to define what to focus on, i.e. to synthesise the findings and go from insights and learnings, to opportunity areas.
