In-House Capability Building

We offer tailor-made programs designed for your companies’ challenges and objectives. Our inc-house programs are hands-on and highly interactive, with live facilitation by Darryl McClay. We focus on developing a common language and innovation skills. Teams learn-by-doing in guided design sprints and coaching tracks, creating direct results while building a new approach for innovation.

Our DT, Agile and Innovation experts have extensive experience in implementing Design Thinking and innovation within corporates, governments and NGO’s and facilitating training sessions, Design Sprints and coaching tracks for diverse teams. We are represented in over 25 countries and know the local culture and approach to implement innovation within (large) organisations.

Innovation Strategy Services

To kick-start innovation in a corporate environment, we use design sprints, training programs and a mix of methodologies (Design Thinking, Lean, Agile) to build skills, methods and tools. Rather than devising specific innovation strategies, we assist teams to deliver upon their strategy. We help establish the Innovation Framework that enables teams to continuously deliver innovative services for their clients.

Our goal is to step out of the facilitating role as soon as possible, empowering your team to take the lead. We typically create multidisciplinary teams of professionals and stimulate them to create transformations within the organisation. As a result, we focus on building an innovation framework, practical toolkit, train-the-trainer programs or inspiration sessions that enable ambassadors to spread innovation throughout the organisation after we step out.

Why did we not apply Design Thinking earlier at ISO? A very powerful methodology. Great investment to accelerate career development.

Our Approach

We invest in building a relationship with you, gaining an understanding of your organisation, your stakeholders and the broader context of the problem. Together, we design a customised approach to your challenge, with a constant focus on tapping into the existing creativity and knowledge of the people in your organisation. 

We engage key stakeholders in your organisation to gain deeper insights into your work culture, typical projects and pain points. This helps our team to understand your context and allows us to take this into account to optimise people’s experience and learning.
