Overview

This intensive Bootcamp will guide you through the design and innovation cycle in four fast-paced days. Each day will focus on a specific stage so you’ll build up your knowledge progressively and learn new tools. Together with your course team, you’ll work on a real-life challenge. Throughout, our coaches will be on hand to inspire, support and stretch your thinking.

Program Objectives

We strongly believe in ‘Learning by Doing’, so the DesignThinkers Bootcamp will be a high energy and hands-on event. You’ll be challenged to work in small teams on a real case and learn to work with Service Design and Design Thinking tools like Personas, Cultural Probes, Customer Journey Mapping, Stakeholder Mapping, Value Network Mapping, Prototyping, Business Modeling, Road Mapping and more. Moreover, a focus of this program will be on exploring the questions how to integrate these tools in an organization and how to create buy-in within an organization and with your sponsors.
