Strategic and Practical Design Thinking in a New Era

Date: January 23th
Time: 9.00 - 13.00
Location: 1508, Wilders Plads 13A, 1403 København, Denmark

Organized by 1508.

Design Thinking has become a key topic in recent years. It has led many companies and organizations to start shifting from only looking inward to also including an outside-in view. This means trying to understand problems the way users see them. However, bringing this approach into an organization that is used to different thinking styles can be tough. This course series takes Design Thinking as a starting point and goes deep into the challenges of making it a part of the organization. We aim to connect strategy with everyday work, adopting a designer’s mindset to meet the challenges of today’s world.

The course helps to tackle the tough task of introducing Design Thinking into organizations set in their traditional ways of doing. We look at how to make sure Design Thinking is more than just a buzzword and instead has a real and lasting impact. We talk about how to make Design Thinking strong even in places that might not welcome it at first.

The cost of participation in the event is 8,000 DKK, and the event extends over a duration of 4 days.
