How it Works
Hands on, fast, immersive, and actionable
In two days, we take participants from hearing about design thinking as a concept to having used it in several fast-paced interactive exercises and a design project, making them ready to bring it back to their organizations. We bring in leading design thinking practitioners to coach participants in teams on their project, to lock in specific learnings. The last section of the course focuses on helping each participant build a specific plan to incorporate learning into their organization in the days that follow. The course applies to our Certificates in Strategy and Innovation and qualifies as an elective for Leadership and Excellence in Business Certificates.
