The document provides advice for implementing new ideas at educational institutions. It suggests that good ideas often get watered down or ruined at the middle management level due to fear and inexperience. It also notes that new ideas do not happen often enough and there is a tendency to only do things that others are already doing. The document advocates for being the change that is sought rather than waiting for others to create change. It promotes treating the institution like a business with a focus on areas like sales, support, costs, leadership, and accountability.
This document provides several tips for conducting projects ethically:
1) Treat financial decisions as if it is your own money to ensure you make the best choices for clients.
2) Consider how projects affect diverse stakeholders, including families and communities, and understand how to explain projects to others.
3) Account for the full product lifecycle from sourcing materials to disposal to understand true ownership costs.
This slide deck accompanies a workshop I ran at Agile India in March 2017. The majority of the audience were scrummasters, agile coaches, team managers etc.
It leans on the Heart of Agile meme.
The workshop focused on two activities;
1. thinking about better than best practices so that we can escape the tyranny of other people's patterns.
2. Getting people to reflect on the experience of telling/being told versus collaborating on a problem.
How the Best Design Leaders Get to the Top: Insights into the Top Design Stud...fresh tilled soil
What makes a leader of a digital design team successful? How do they build the best possible team? What was their journey? What is their approach to culture, process and management? What are the core factors that influence their decisions? For a long time Richard Banfield has been fascinated by Digital Design Leadership, so he made it the focus of a two-year long study. The objective of the study was to gain insights into what makes leaders of successful digital design studios and digital product companies different from the rest. He is half-way through the study and so far and has interviewed 50+ studio founders, digital product company CEOs, and product leads. The interviews have already taken him to Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto, Portland, Boulder, Denver, NYC, Austin, Philadelphia, Portland, San Francisco, Jacksonville, Bristol, Boston, London and Madrid. In this talk, Richard will share what he has learned so far and will begin to reveal the patterns of how we can all mimic this success.
Great Talks Start with Great Proposals: An IA Summit Virtual WebinarRuss U
This document summarizes a webinar about brainstorming ideas and writing proposals for conference presentations. The webinar covers brainstorming big ideas, writing titles and abstracts for proposals, and the proposal review process. Attendees are guided through exercises to come up with potential presentation topics and ideas within time limits. The composition of a successful proposal is outlined, including writing an engaging title, detailing the presentation in the abstract, and including a bio. Common questions about the blind review and selection process are also addressed.
This document discusses leadership and creative problem solving using design thinking techniques. It begins with introductions and then poses the question "What is the problem in business?". Common business problems are identified such as cultural barriers and miscommunication. Design thinking is presented as a way to simplify complex problems through reflection and establishing a common mindset. Two exercises are then described to practice ideas generation using techniques like "yes, but" and "yes, and" responses as well as silent brainstorming. Leadership principles are discussed as acknowledging ideas, getting involved, and creating common ground. The document concludes by reflecting on how design thinking can foster leadership, problem solving, and adaptability for innovation.

It’s not just enough to hire talented people and hope for the best. Innovation and complex problem-solving requires teamwork, so we need to pay attention to how people work together. Building great products means creating the best environment for teams to thrive.
Finding the right balance between individual expertise and collective effort, while tricky, is possible. In this talk, Alison will share her insights on effective collaboration, the habits of successful teams, and principles for designing an outstanding team culture.
This document outlines techniques for effective collaboration, including brainstorming and consensus building. It discusses the importance of collaboration for benefits like team building, communication, and gaining different perspectives. Effective brainstorming requires preparing the right people, having rules like deferring judgment and building on others' ideas, using tools like sticky notes, and appointing a facilitator. The KJ method is presented for building consensus, with steps of sorting ideas into groups, naming groups, voting on importance, and ranking. Examples are given of collaborating on developing a concept for a pizza restaurant's iPhone app.

Redesigning the Table: The Case For Organizational DesignAdam Connor
As design talent becomes more sought after and designers achieve higher levels of leadership in organizations, it's becoming more and more apparent that having design talent does not ensure design success. An organization's culture - its shared beliefs and behaviors - have a tremendous effect on how that company utilizes and capitalizes on design talent. If we want our organizations to make the most of not only designers, but the creative talent and innovative ideas of all and any of it's people, then we must make a focused effort to change our organizations culture and the various aspects and facets of an organization in which culture manifests. This is Organizational Design, a practice focused on optimizing the structures of an organization to achieve a desired outcome.

How can good design be integrated into your business profitably? Jane will answer this question by considering the ‘anti-problem’. She will share 10 ways designers and business people can guarantee their behaviours and activities will ensure they never see eye-to-eye, their efforts will be wasted and everyone involved will know it is not their fault. You will probably recognise most of these techniques in action in your own organisation. That is the anti-pattern.

Culture Eats Strategy for Breakfast - Dealing with Cultural Differences in Ka...LitheSpeed
This document summarizes a workshop on dealing with cultural differences in agile environments. The opening discussion defines culture and explains why it matters, providing several statistics about employee engagement. Common cultural challenges for agility are presented, such as different measurements of success between departments. Participants then selected a specific cultural challenge to discuss at their tables. They analyzed the current and ideal states and generated concrete strategies to transition from the current to the next target state, adding measures if time allowed. The document concludes with contact information for further information about the workshop.
Presenter: Hira Javed, Service Design Lead, Canadian Broadcasting Corporation
Solving meaningful problems requires collaboration across multiple disciplines. Adaptive and learning oriented organizations actively work towards breaking down silos, in order to enable a culture of collaboration. Their nimbleness becomes their super power when it comes to creating exceptional user experiences. Achieving true collaboration though, is hard work. The journey towards it is akin to therapy for the organization. It requires deep reflection, courage to accept challenges, commitment to work on them, and most of all, embracing vulnerability.
This talk will focus on how service blueprinting can be used a therapeutic tool to kick-start these conversations, and help an organization reflect, learn and grow.

Leaders are encouraged to create opportunities for conversations and sharing. The goal is to make connections that bring clarity to enterprise chaos through a continuous effort to
The document discusses building team culture and relationships for remote teams. It addresses challenges like being left out of meetings and decisions as a remote employee and building trust with managers. Solutions proposed include overcommunicating, scheduling social meeting time, getting in-person face time occasionally, and using tools like Cloverleaf to gain insights into team members. The presenters advocate for clear goals, understanding strengths, and creating shared values, norms, and artifacts to develop cohesion for remote teams.

Design thinking is a process that focuses on empathy, collaboration, and experimentation to solve problems in a human-centered way. It begins with deep understanding of users' needs through observation and engagement to gain insights. Teams then work together to synthesize learnings and define the key issues to address. The process is iterative, testing ideas and getting feedback to develop better solutions. Design thinking provides optimism that positive change is possible through a creative approach.

Using Design to Understand Your School's Pandemic ExperienceDavid Jakes
This document summarizes David Jakes' presentation on using design thinking to understand a school's experience during the pandemic. The presentation introduced design thinking and ethnography tools to collect stories about a school community's remote learning experience. It demonstrated paper and digital tools for workshops and interviews. The goals were to learn from the complexity, engage participants, synthesize data, and develop a point of view to guide future efforts. Key takeaways included embracing design, providing time/funding, connecting/listening to stakeholders, iterating solutions, and using design for visioning.
This document discusses the importance of creativity in education and how technology can foster creativity. It notes that creativity is as important as literacy and numeracy. While people understand creativity is important, they don't always understand what it is. The document outlines how digital tools can encourage production skills and creativity in instructional environments. It also discusses using failure and diverse instructors to promote creativity. Courses at Seton Hall University focus on innovative student-created projects and encourage risk-taking without fear of failure to develop creativity.
From 2002 - Motives and Methods forParticipatory Web Designwith At-Risk TeensPaul Treadwell
Paul Treadwell conducted a participatory web design session with at-risk teens. The session revealed mismatches between the motives of the teens, project staff, and designer that hindered success. Follow up sessions incorporated lessons learned, using digital photography to engage teens before introducing web design. A skills assessment tool and focus on collaboration aim to better support teens in developing technical skills through relevant, playful activities.

The document outlines a child education initiative in rural Bihar called Pick Me, Click Me, Educate Me. It describes the inspiration and motivation for the project, which was to spread education and prevent dropouts. Research was conducted through contextual inquiries, interviews, literature reviews and surveys to gain insights. A design concept was developed to create a platform for collaboration between various groups like photographers, writers and donors. The concept was tested with users and future plans include solidifying the business plan and implementing the project while continuing to measure its impact.
Early Childhood Building +Talking = Engineering + DesignGabrielle Lyon
Design meaningful block play with intentionality to foster STEM learning in early childhood settings. This talk, presented at the Opening Minds Conference in Jan 2016, reviews research about the importance of talk for brain development, developmental block play and how these two ideas are critically important as precursors for the development of STEM & science thinking for young children. The talk describes activities at the Chicago Architecture Foundation designed for young children and families grounded in research about talk, block play and early childhood science literacy.
In April 2015 the University of Salford successfully implemented askUS, a new student-facing ‘one stop shop,’ taking just 14 weeks from project launch to service inception. Bringing together teams from three disparate locations with very different ways of working, the askUS project co-located a range of services including Finance, Visas & Immigration, Registration, Counselling & Wellbeing, Careers & Employability…and many more! The success of the askUS project was co-creating with students, and working with operational colleagues to design how the service should work, what it should look like and how it should feel. This session will explore our experiences of getting things done in just 14 weeks, including how we adapted existing building layouts and student systems, and how we changed our ways of working and dealt with any challenges.
This document summarizes the Design for Change program, which empowers students to enact positive change in their communities. It describes how students in one school felt they didn't have enough time for play and organized themselves into football teams to practice and teach other schools. Their initiative expanded to coaching teams in 7 other schools and training additional coaches, bringing about revolutionary change through the students' imagination and enthusiasm. The program teaches 21st century skills like leadership, collaboration and problem solving to help students believe in their ability to create change.
This document discusses using co-creation workshops to enable higher education institutions to collaborate more effectively and create better student experiences. It provides results from interviews at Aston University acknowledging the need for digital change and more joined-up efforts across departments. Examples of existing co-creation include blogs and student takeovers. Design thinking and co-creation tools can help structure ideas to solve problems. An activity had teams build with Lego to reflect on collaboration, behaviors, and insights for everyday jobs. Research methods to map the student journey include interviews and online ethnography.
The document discusses digital storytelling and engagement in museums. It emphasizes that every story begins with a question and encourages seeking answers together with an audience. Storytelling starts by asking questions and going on a journey to find answers. Engagement is a process that can bring audiences from simply visiting a museum to becoming more involved with the institution. The document provides questions to guide developing an identity, projects, social engagement strategies, and business models for museums.
This document provides an introduction and overview of Appreciative Inquiry (AI). It discusses how AI takes a strengths-based approach to change by focusing on what is working well rather than problems. The objectives are to showcase AI to participants and allow them to embark on their own AI process focused on facilitation. It outlines the AI process which includes Discover (learning about past successes), Dream (envisioning potential positive futures), Design (developing plans to achieve dreams) and Destiny (sustaining momentum for change). Examples are provided of provocative propositions that inspire change by describing an ideal future state in affirmative terms. The document aims to introduce participants to AI and guide them through an initial AI process focused on facilitation
The document outlines an agenda for a workshop on personal and professional development.
