How did design achieve such a
  primary role at Samsung?
What is ‘design’?
Design is the application of creativity to planning
  the optimum solution of a given problem and
    the communication of that plan to others
                           (Douglas Wright 2005)

 'making things better for people'. It emphasizes
       that design activity is focused first and
    foremost on human behavior and quality of
                         life.
(Richard Seymour during the Design Council's
  Design in Business Week 2002)
Good design begins with the needs of the
user. No design, no matter how beautiful and
  ingenious, is any good if it doesn't fulfil a
          user need (Design Council)
The 1st design revolution:

 “An enterprise’s most vital assets lie in its
design and other creative capabilities….Let us
focus our strength in developing unique
designs that reflect the Samsung philosophy
and soul ”(Kun-Hee Lee, Chairman of Samsung
1996).
Implications
• Hired university advisors and foreign
  consultants to stimulate the role of design and
  to develop partnership in design activities.
• Recruited     designers     worldwide        and
  strengthened training programs to the
  managers in order to adopt a “designer’s mind
  ” and broaden their concept of product
  development
The 2 design revolution
              nd


…Design is not simply a way to express identity,
 but rather must be seen as a communication
 channel between a business and its customers
 that is capable of drawing all of society closer
 together. (Kun-Hee Lee, Chairman of Samsung
 2004).
Implications:
• Create remarkable design and establish a user
  interface (UI) identity.
• Recruit and secure world’s best designers.
• Design helps Samsung to become close to
  their customer, they able to create products
  which able to equip their customer’s life for
  today and in the future.
• Moreover this factor will lead Samsung to
  enhance their image in front of the customers
  as well as to gain customers satisfaction.
As the results of their revolution:
• world’s 1st in the memory, mobile phone, and
  TV business
• world’s 1st MP3 phone
• world’s 1st thinnest phone
• The highest mega pixel phone
