What is the Masterclass about?
Innovation work is hard. Given the the pace of change in business, the complexity of company environments, and the diversity of teams, we need new ways of working. In this masterclass, designers will become familiar with two well-proven tools that enrich their design repertoire. Deeply rooted in human-centred design, these tools increase agency and allow everybody to be an active contributor to the innovation process. Its inclusive, non-competitive nature makes it a perfect fit for every team that wants to level up their innovation game.
Presented at UXIstanbul 2016.
When designing new services / products / experience, designers often start with the user needs or technical feasibilities. When designers ask “why are we doing this”, we often shy away from the business reasons. If we try to design with a holistic view of everything, shouldn’t we understand the business needs as well?
Taking a step away from the traditional design thinking, this session will dive into business design and stretch our design thinking muscle to business thinking. Business design brings in the commercial prospect to form a more complete approach to solving complex problems.
In this session, we will look at examples of hands-on case study of how to integrate commercial thinking into design projects. How to balance the different requirements and needs from all angles? What are the different toolkits that can be used for designers to start thinking about business more? And maybe most importantly, how can designers stop being scared of numbers.
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?

Challenges and opportunities for service design in organisations shifting to agile
Abstract:
To keep up with the ever faster rate of change in the world, more and more companies are adopting agile ways of working. For service designers working in organisations that are shifting in this direction, this presents opportunities, but also challenges. What is the role of service design in an agile organisation and how can it provide the most value? Which methods work well and which need to be adapted? And what tools and techniques can help facilitate collaboration and co-creation? During this interactive workshop, we will take an in-depth look at these emerging issues and opportunities. The presenters will share their own experiences, problems and solutions and attendees are invited to do the same, so we can jointly identify patterns, discuss solutions and learn from experiences.
Innovation:
With service design becoming increasingly part of the “business as usual” of organisations, it’s also becoming more important to integrate it with the practices of the rest of the business. An ongoing trend is a shift to more bottom-up and agile ways of working. This opens up great opportunities for designers, as it makes it easier to respond to customer insights, but it also presents new challenges. At Aegon, we started this shift over a year ago and have learned a lot along the way. We’ll share our experiences and solutions and:
* How we combine traditional methods with iterative working
* How we approached the transition (traditional & agile working side by side)
* How we direct insights to teams that need them, using dashboards etc. to encourage serendipity
* What we haven’t solved yet

Getting everyone on the same page is vital for the success of any agile effort. Systematic, visual representations – maps of the user experience -- help align team towards a common goal. You’re probably already familiar with mapping techniques already out there: journey maps, experience maps, user story mapping and more.
But how do we apply these techniques in remote teams? The shared understanding that visualizations offer seems to get lost when interacting through Slack, Skype and the like. For sure, better tools can help remote collaboration, but ultimately distributed UX design requires a new set of skills.
Any kind of remote collaboration is hard. But it can seem nearly impossible when you are working with a design team. The visual interaction and open environment needed for great creative work can be tricky to achieve when your team doesn’t sit in the same room. But effective remote design and collaboration is possible.

"Innovate or die” is the mantra of successful companies. So how can we build innovation into our product development process? By combining design thinking, lean startup and agile we get a recipe for repeatable innovation: lean UX. Lean UX and lean startup methods are being used today by many startups and innovation labs to take a learning approach to discovering and building the best product for customers.
But what does repeatable innovation look like scaled across an enterprise? This talk will share how to apply lean product practices as a continuous process across multiple products and agile development teams in an organization. With real examples and artifacts you will learn how to manage - and thrive - in uncertainty to create awesome products.

By 2017, IBM had trained 50 000 of its employees in design thinking. Big players across all in- dustries are bringing the design mindset and design thinking tools into their ranks. They are motivated by the challenge of gaining competitive advantage and looking for sustainable models
to innovate. Creative sales pitches from marketing wizards will make design thinking sound very easy, but that is one of the many misconceptions in this field. However, starting with the right expectations and following tested implementation tips can help bring very tangible benefits to BPO organizations.
Reimagine your enterprise: Make Human Centered Design the Heart of Your Digit...Kenneth Kwan
Companies in every industry are trying to find new sources of value
through digital technology. But most of their efforts have not translated
into enough market impact and growth. They need something bolder
and more disruptive, but still very simple. They need reimagination.
Reimagination means putting the user at the center of everything
your company does — strategy, product development, operations,
marketing, sales, and customer service. It means using the full power
of digital media and technology to build empathy with that user, and
weaving that relationship into the fabric of your company. This practice
is known as “human centered design” (HCD): the reshaping of an entire
enterprise and its capabilities system around the customer or user
experience.
HCD represents a new way of life for business. It evokes many of the
attributes of a startup — creativity, speed, bias for action, flexibility
with risk, and radical collaboration. To achieve this entrepreneurial
vigor in your company, you may have to consciously break down long
established internal barriers. You must embrace five basic principles:
Embed human centered design in everything you do, build brand value
holistically, design for three years out (but build for today), stand up
new structures and teams, and nurture your existing digital culture.

SPOTLIGHT ON THE EVOLUTION OF DESIGN THINKING
HBR.ORG
There’s a shift under way
in large organizations,
one that puts design
much closer to the
center of the enterprise.
Focus on users’ experiences, especially
their emotional ones. To build empathy with
users, a design-centric organization empowers em-
ployees to observe behavior and draw conclusions
about what people want and need. Those conclu-
sions are tremendously hard to express in quanti-
tative language. Instead, organizations that “get”
design use emotional language (words that concern
desires, aspirations, engagement, and experience)
to describe products and users. Team members
discuss the emotional resonance of a value propo-
sition as much as they discuss utility and product
requirements.
A traditional value proposition is a promise of
utility: If you buy a Lexus, the automaker promises
that you will receive safe and comfortable trans-
portation in a well-designed high-performance ve-
hicle. An emotional value proposition is a promise
of feeling: If you buy a Lexus, the automaker prom-
ises that you will feel pampered, luxurious, and af-
fluent. In design-centric organizations, emotion-
ally charged language isn’t denigrated as thin, silly,
or biased. Strategic conversations in those compa-
nies frequently address how a business decision or
a market trajectory will positively influence users’
experiences and often acknowledge only implicitly
that well-designed offerings contribute to financial
success.
The focus on great experiences isn’t limited to
product designers, marketers, and strategists—it
infuses every customer-facing function. Take
finance. Typically, its only contact with users is
through invoices and payment systems, which are
designed for internal business optimization or pre-
determined “customer requirements.” But those
systems are touch points that shape a customer’s
impression of the company. In a culture focused
on customer experience, financial touch points are
designed around users’ needs rather than internal
operational efficiencies.
Create models to examine complex prob-
lems. Design thinking, first used to make physical
objects, is increasingly being applied to complex, in-
tangible issues, such as how a customer experiences
a service. Regardless of the context, design thinkers
tend to use physical models, also known as design
artifacts, to explore, define, and communicate.
Those models—primarily diagrams and sketches—
supplement and in some cases replace the spread-
sheets, specifications, and other documents that

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.

Get results faster with a talented,
organised, effective remote team.
6. Fluid Remote Teams
We build experienced teams for each project from a decentralised
independent network.
We come together and disperse, onsite and remotely, at different
stages of the project for the best results.
We build small teams of senior professionals with a shared set of
similar working values.
We plan carefully focussing on outcomes. This allows for flexibility
and self-organising positive mindset amongst the team.
We are defined by our values. And trust the process.

innovation that draws from the designer’s toolkit to
integrate the needs of people, the possibilities of
technology, and the requirements for business success.”

19. Constantly challenge existing agency business models.
Let this be one of your core values.
Producing faster, better results. Even Failing faster with less
impact on budget, only to learn and succeed.
Faster project life-cycles. Less security.
Constant learning required. The future belongs to
lifelong learners (Gerstein, 2015).
