Course Description
5-Day DesignThinkers Global Bootcamp Week (Certificate)
The DesignThinkers Bootcamp offers you the unique opportunity to learn from internationally recognized and highly experienced Design Thinking practitioners from the business, design and academic world. It provides a combination of Personal Coaching, Master Classes and in-depth knowledge of Service Design Thinking Tools and Methodology. The main goal of the bootcamp is to guide you via ‘learning-by-doing’ on how to apply Design Thinking to your business.
FOR WHOM
The DT Bootcamp is especially designed for individuals who intend on taking the next big step towards actually applying Design Thinking in their daily work. For this reason, the Bootcamp coaches are all practitioners who will guide participants towards putting Design Thinking into practice. For example, ‘Industry Executives’, ‘Senior Government Policy Makers’ and ‘Independent Professionals’ are individuals who are at the right place at DT Bootcamp.
THEORY
We strongly believe in ‘Learning by Doing’. This results in the DT Bootcamp being a high-energy and hands-on training. You’ll be challenged to work on a real case together in a small team while using Design Thinking tools. For example, Personas, Customer Journey Mapping, Stakeholder Mapping, Value Network Mapping, Prototyping, Business Modeling, and more will be practised during the DT Bootcamp. Furthermore, a strong focus of this program will be on exploring the questions. For instance, ‘how to integrate these tools in an organization’ and ‘how to create buy-in within an organization and with your sponsors’.
"The Bootcamp was a transformational week for me. I highly recommend the program to anyone who wants to understand (not read up on) what DT is really about."
PROGRAM & COACHING ‘LEARNING BY DOING’
Each day of the DT Bootcamp will focus on a specific topic within the Design Thinking process.
The coaches will share their experiences in the form of a Masterclass related to their expertise. Moreover, the coaches will guide you and your team throughout the entire process, from conducting research to designing Service Concepts and implementing these concepts within complex organisations.
Meanwhile, the facilitators will continuously focus on your teams’ progress with regards to the different activities during the DesignThinkers Bootcamp.
