How to convince business and IT to value design?
One of the biggest outcomes of the technology consumerization trend is how it has driven the importance of design. There’s no “waiting out” this trend – an unstoppable wave of interest in design centricity is hitting the business world, shifting the focus in product and service development from features to experience. But why? What is the real value of design? Why is it worth the investment?
Return on Design: The business value of design for servicesCsilla Narai
Service design is at the forefront of innovation and customer-centered business value generation. This deck explains how we, service designers approach problems, what tools we use and what exactly you, as a decision maker gain from working with us.
Presentation given at August 2015's Ignition, the Decision Lens' internal speaking event.
A look at the value of design inside enterprise applications, specifically here at Decision Lens.
From systematic studies over the decades, the smart home’s main functionalities have evolved from home automation to remote monitoring and controlling, then to context awareness. All the smart home products have a mainstream type in a certain period. However, have these mainstream functionalities covered all the needs of the users?
Through 3 rounds of research conducted across 3 different markets (China, EU, and Bay Area in the US) during a two-year span, Veronika and her colleagues at frog have found some new surprising uses and work-arounds that users invented, which have definitely inspired them in surfacing the hidden and essential needs in smart homes.
Fancy to know what kind of uses and work-arounds users have created?
In this talk, through some research finding anecdotes, Veronika will lay out 3 key lenses that were used to uncover the hidden needs and JBTDs in the smart home space, and talk about how to transfer these hidden needs into some new smart home product and service design opportunities.
Undeniably 2020 has been an unpredictable year. This originated some creativity for innovation as much as adaptation and acceleration of existent ideas.
Every so often at Cocoon we feel the need to review these technologies and approaches and filter what we feel is relevant for us and our clients into a document that we share internally and externally.
This year we gave this document a linear context: Digital Global Humanism.
Up until recently people were the central focus in digital businesses and ecosystems.
Businesses started by embracing humanism to achieve their results and to enable clients to access their products in the easiest ways possible.
But now we also need to remind people about their own responsibility for the Earth. We added this to our process of business transformation.

Agiles Leadership, transformatives Leadership, komplex-adaptives Leadership und Andere sind in erster Linie eine Beschreibung von individuellen Fähigkeiten und Verhaltensweisen wie soziale Kompetenzen, emotionale Intelligenz, systemisches Denken, Vision und Mut.
Leadership dient dazu, weiter als Geschäftsziele zu erreichen, eine bessere Zukunft zu schöpfen, wo es darum geht, Widerstände, Ungewissheit, Zweifel und Angst entgegenzutreten. Diese Art Leadership braucht sicherlich etwas mehr als gute kommunikative Kompetenzen, die in einem 3-tägigen Kurs erworben werden.
Dann stellt sich die Frage: woher kommt die Energie für solche Herausforderungen? Wie können wir, als normale Menschen, unseren Geist (und Körper) entwickeln, um zur Evolution unserer Firma – Gesellschaft – Menschheit beizutragen? Wie können wir unsere universelle Verbundenheit und die Macht unseres Geistes mobilisieren, um Wert für unsere Gesellschaft zu schöpfen? Und wie sollen die Leader der Zukunft ausgebildet werden?
