Human-centred collaborative design series - session 1
Course description
Human-centred design (HCD) is a collaborative approach to problem-solving that puts the people we are designing for at the heart of the process.
Our Human-centred
design series includes four standalone, ½ day sessions that build on each
other. They are designed for leaders, change practitioners and individual
contributors who wish to develop capability in using human-centered design
methods and mindsets.
- Session 1 – Invite discovery and explore the system with collaborative design
- Session 2 –
Build empathy and define the opportunity with collaborative design
- Session 3 - Generate ideas and prototype opportunities with collaborative design
- Session 4 - Test assumptions and map actions with collaborative design
You are welcome to attend them all, or dip into the topics that interest you most.
