Bespoke Capability Building
Our in-company programs are designed around your organization’s specific challenges, objectives and level of experience. Rather than learning methods in isolation, participants apply them directly to real cases through hands-on exercises, guided sprints, team assignments and coaching.
The focus is on building practical skills, a shared language and the confidence to use new approaches independently after the program. Depending on the ambition, we can support anything from a focused team workshop to a longer capability-building journey across multiple teams or departments. With facilitators in more than 25 countries, we combine global expertise with local understanding, adapting the format, examples and facilitation style to the context of each organization.
Building Innovation Capabilities
We help organisations build the skills, confidence and capabilities to make innovation part of everyday work. Together with teams, we translate innovation ambitions into practical learning experiences, tools and approaches that can be applied to real organisational challenges.
Depending on the organisation’s needs, this can include tailored capability-building programmes, practical toolkits, multidisciplinary team development, internal ambassador programmes and train-the-trainer approaches. These elements strengthen individual skills and build the collective capabilities needed to drive innovation.
Our aim is to transfer knowledge and ownership throughout the journey, enabling internal teams to confidently lead, facilitate and continuously develop innovation initiatives independently.
Certificate
After successful completion of one of our courses, participants are awarded a DesignThinkers Academy Certificate and you can celebrate your achievement of becoming a true Design Thinker. All tools and materials will be available after the course for personal use.

‘I definitely recommend the course because the knowledge is high-level yet it gives a good solid understanding about Design Thinking.’
