The main goal was to discuss with the executive the details behind this innovative idea and get the project approved . Selection To accomplish the challenge and get the project approved by the executive it was used a visualization tool . The main reason behind this election was that a visualization tool will allow us to communicate effectively with the C - Level executive . It is important since any visualization tool will take us beyond the limits of using just the language but to represent in an executive format what this new idea and project is and what the financial impacts would mean . Finally another reason behind the election of this tool , as it was mentioned in the video is that by using visualization tool the communication process get synthesized . Application The application of the tool was launched in a Powerpoint Presentation . It was set a two hours meeting with the executive with the purpose of review all the project details including the financials assumptions . To arrive the meeting with a good visualization tool it was needed to meet previously with a graphic designer asking for help in order to adapt all the content and information gathered in a visual way by using modern and designed images and pictures . The presentation explained very carefully all the project components such as the financials , the scope and responsibilities as well as the main point of contacts . Also , it was mentioned the project idea would improve the customer experience . The intention was to leverage all the colours , images and symbols as much as possible in a clear way in order to be more persuasive with the top management and let him think in a nonverbal way . In other words to be very explicit with this new idea since as we learnt from the video , the brain creates images and pictures from something that does not exist . The tool was applied effectively and the executive approved the project with some recommendations . Insight The insight gained was that typically we do n't talk about something concrete but the fact of having an executive presentation and share that piece of information as common view allows you and your audience to focus on the same thing and get consensus more rapidly than speaking without any preparation . Using the presentation would eliminate the ambiguity could arise on the audience . From a design thinking perspective the visualization tool or the other tools reviewed in the course helps us to improve the communication process either to
present an idea , to show the results from any given project in a creative way or to commit the audience to the project . This course has helped me understand there are several tools to apply in a design thinking process , such as a new approach to communicate as well as a new product or service development . Approach In this case it would be really powerful next time to use a in a combined way any visualization tool with an storytelling tool concatenated . It would allows us to improve what we are trying to communicate with an structure way to walk the interlocutor through an idea and ultimately to make the story convincible . Mauro Iorio April 2020

Challenge & Selection
I am working for a huge telecommunications company and I have been working as a project manager for HR IT topics and right now I work as an enterprise architect . As enterprise architect we always face situations where we must find solutions to meet business requirements and conduct vendor selections . In that cases it turned out to be very useful to collect the necessary information out of brainstormings etc . in a mind map in a first step . In that way we are able to keep our focus on the main points and their relations to other important information .
Another use case developed since the last four to five years , when we started to implement our own Design Thinking approach to find innovative solutions for our business requirements . Together with business and IT representatives we severely went through this process and the problem as well as the solution space often started with a mind map to collect and later give a structure to all the different ideas .
Application
In the environment of Design Thinking in our company I usually start the process of mind mapping in combination with brain storming . As you might realize in that case , we use the mind map in a reverse order . In a first step every participant of our group gets some sticky notes to write down their detailed ideas . In a second step we rearrange the sticky notes and try to find categories and maybe subcategories for all of them . If we find relations , we can make them visible via lines . In the last step we collect feedbacks on all points and rate them to find the ideas which fit and which may not fit .
Insight & Approach
What I have learned from conducting the mind map in this way is that the process of idea generation takes creativity on a higher level . On the one hand , everybody - even introverted colleagues – are given the chance to share their input via sticky notes . On the other hand people might think further the ideas of others when they see them on the board .
I discovered that the feedback sessions before the rating can be very fruitful if everybody has a short time slot to present their ideas to clarify open questions from the audience . And finally , after the ratings , we always have a clear structure with categorized ideas where we have a common sense and with the rating already reached a prioritization out of our group discussion .

Traffic Issue
Challenge & Selection :
Storytelling is a great tool that I use all the time . I work with the Facing traffic Issue problem ,
As many people face this traffic issues in their lives . I spend lots of time in discussing this issue with the senior members and the people who are travelling regularly .
With my developmentally traffic system I share stories of my life in order to help them
visualize a traffic free state , I use their feedback against the context of my story to ascertain their goals , and sometimes we use stories to better understand their interests and thought processes . I use this information to develop different strategies to try and find a way that works for them to gain more in the areas they find lacking in their lives .
Application :
I have a story about using storytelling . In discussing about my experience of me facing a
traffic issues in the recent time , where the I was been met with a traffic for few hours and coming out from it was a very difficult , with the pollution I faced and the type of people driving the vehicles at the very smaller area of that they have and few ambulances got stuck in the traffic .
With expressing my story telling to the other which may help in obtaining the required
information from the people to identify the problem .
Insight & Approach
Well , When I opened up with my problem and expressing it to the person who caught up
with the issue and got stressed , with my expression of story telling it supported him by know how the others are having the impact of this traffic issues and how it had become a normal and people should get familiar to these situations and not get panic on it .

Challenge For more than ten years I have been working in the restructuring consulting business in Germany , so my native language is not English . Usually our clients are struggling private companies facing the threat of insolvency . From time to time we get some more strategic projects which are related to organizational aspects of reinventing a business model but not directly facing insolvency issues . In this case our client was a big private company within the construction business headquartered in New York City . Our client wanted to extend its business operations to Europe , Africa and Asia and therefore acquired several standalone companies in 48 different countries with a total of approximately 300 production sites . The team I lead was engaged by the global CFO based in New York and the new EMEA CFO based in London , United Kingdom . Our target was to perform an analysis of the current processes in the finance department across all countries and come up with suggestions for an efficient reorganization . At this point of the project neither we nor the CFO had any idea about the processes in the different countries , the underlying IT systems , accounting standards or which people are involved in the finance processes . Selection The first tool we applied was the tool of mind mapping to achieve a basic understanding of the underlying processes , IT - systems and involved persons . We started analyzing the global budgeting and business planning process as those are tow central activities within the finance department of a global company . Usually if you map out these processes you can get a deep understanding of the processes within a finance organization . We chose the tool of mind mapping as it enabled us to organize a large amount of messy data , regardless of the amount we were not able to expect at this time . In addition mind maps are a great tool to develop ideas about processes and also support the communication with top management as they are easier to read than tables , spreadsheets or reports . Like shown in the video on the mind mapping tool in week 3 this seemed to be the perfect approach for us , maybe in combination with other tools like the storytelling tool shown in week 1 . Application Once we had identified the key persons in the 48 countries we started collecting all the management reports which were generated on a monthly basis . We received an overwhelming mass of data and reports of several thousand pages . Some of our colleagues started with mapping out similarities and differences in a visual way using classic mind - mapping tools . As we soon were aware that a classic mind mapping will result in a way too large overview we thought about how we could adopt the classic mind - mapping tool to fit our needs . As most of the relevant data was aligned along the profit and loss statement of the company we decided to come up with an adjusted version of the mind- mapping tool matching the structure of the profit and loss statement . This approach worked out and we were able to create a visual mind map showing all relevant similarities and differences across the 48 countries . Using this tool we were able to discover differences in the calculation of key performance indicators as well as discover such basic things like differences in calculation revenues and profits . The mind mapping tool enabled us to be aware of one of the greatest challenges in the whole project – missing comparability across countries due to a lack of consistency . Insight & Approach To come up with a solution for this we invited all responsible finance managers to several workshops to London . We organized break - out sessions based on the insights of the mind map we created in the weeks before the workshops . For the workshops themselves we decided to include another design thinking tool – visualization . We used the availability of finance managers across all of Europe , Africa
and Asia to map out the current processes within the finance organization to come up with consistent processes across all countries . In addition to the classic mind - mapping we also used the concept of the Business Model Canvas ( as also described in another course of this specialization ) to map out customer centric key performance indicators . The result of the workshops was a clear roadmap on how we can transform the finance organization to meet the challenging needs of a global organization . In total the project took approximately eight months and was huge success . After the successful reorganization we decided to start over at the beginning . We created mind maps of the reorganized processes and created Business Model Canvas of the reorganized budgeting an reporting processes . These are now part of the internal process documentation . Our client as well as our company were convinced that the aspects of design thinking and the visual approach helped us to achieve our target . This is why this approach has become a standard approach in our company now . This leaves one last question . Would another approach have been better ? Well , I do think by starting with the mind mapping approach we selected the correct approach for our needs based on the given information at this time . Looking back from today it may have been a better approach to start over with the tool of visualization instead . Visualization would have enabled us to take a closer look at the messy processes and the highly fragmented IT environment earlier . Maybe this would have been an advantage in the beginning of the project . However , we included visualization during the workshops and performed a combination of mind mapping and visualization to achieve our target .

Example Reflection – Visualization
Challenge and selection
I use the visualization tool for stakeholders who are wondering how to implement a final solution from the point we are at . Often there are solutions to problems that have been exposed as optimal or best . Although it is clear the approach of the solution , the way and how to reach it is not defined .
The visualization tool helps to focus the interested parties on the present state and to show a step - by- step how to reach final solutions that have already been formed . The visualization step - by - step approach helps to put into perspective new potential solutions that are possible from different views that differ from what they have in mind
Application
I start to show a summary of how we are in the present , some statistics and historical data of the growth .
With the evolution of the data I asked them to define in their own words what it is and what we want to improve , highlighting the difficulties and the present state . I asked them to make a top 5 , through a drawing of the most relevant aspects in their lives , represented by two hands , two feet and a head , of what they would change in their lives with the improvement of the product .
Then I introduced two new concepts with the help of some simple mathematical formulas and the effort that it takes the human being to make the transformation from a source to a product for final use , through a representation like the top 5 . This helps to evoke that for the gain of the interested one ’s , another people make several efforts . An effort exchange diagram linking the two concepts brings us to the present .
By having them in the present moment I go to some figures of projection that are in the market and by means of simple conversions I define the real effort that is required to arrive at the solutions that are had in mind . This helps to understand that the transformation that has been sold is not immediate and that we require certain steps to be able to encompass the final transformation , but through an orderly transition .
Insight & Approach
The orderly transition goes beyond the visualization and includes actual potentials , geographic classifications , resource availability , projected needs and flexible packages .
The visualization helped to recognize new steps and new tools to define the problem , however , by closing the focus to numbers , stakeholders did not dimension the effort that was needed , and this can be a limitation or a landing for the public . Visualization focused on a more diverse audience to gain perspectives from other sectors and new paths will be developed without number perspective for free ideas exchange

Often there are solutions to problems that have been exposed as optimal or best . Although it is clear the approach of the solution , the way and how to reach it is not defined .
The visualization tool helps to focus the interested parties on the present state and to show a step - by- step how to reach final solutions that have already been formed . The visualization step - by - step approach helps to put into perspective new potential solutions that are possible from different views that differ from what they have in mind
Application
I start to show a summary of how we are in the present , some statistics and historical data of the growth .
With the evolution of the data I asked them to define in their own words what it is and what we want to improve , highlighting the difficulties and the present state . I asked them to make a top 5 , through a drawing of the most relevant aspects in their lives , represented by two hands , two feet and a head , of what they would change in their lives with the improvement of the product .
Then I introduced two new concepts with the help of some simple mathematical formulas and the effort that it takes the human being to make the transformation from a source to a product for final use , through a representation like the top 5 . This helps to evoke that for the gain of the interested one ’s , another people make several efforts . An effort exchange diagram linking the two concepts brings us to the present .
By having them in the present moment I go to some figures of projection that are in the market and by means of simple conversions I define the real effort that is required to arrive at the solutions that are had in mind . This helps to understand that the transformation that has been sold is not immediate and that we require certain steps to be able to encompass the final transformation , but through an orderly transition .
Insight & Approach
The orderly transition goes beyond the visualization and includes actual potentials , geographic classifications , resource availability , projected needs and flexible packages .
The visualization helped to recognize new steps and new tools to define the problem , however , by closing the focus to numbers , stakeholders did not dimension the effort that was needed , and this can be a limitation or a landing for the public . Visualization focused on a more diverse audience to gain perspectives from other sectors and new paths will be developed without number perspective for free ideas exchange

Challenge I was part of the Organizer team of my college 's International techno - management fest under Serum Institute of India patronage . This was a great pride and responsibility for any students of our college . It was the initial stage , that is the planning stage for the perfect execution of the fest , we have to build necessary strategies to achieve our goals , ideas and the requirements of the fest . Here comes the first meeting , the agenda of the meeting was to increase the footfall for the fest . As the discussion went on , people were moving to the conclusion of increasing the reach to new places for marketing the fest . This means allocating more resources to the marketing team , so they are the one who was eagerly waiting for this decision to get finalize . But the problem is we are already running tight on the resource of workforce and funds for the existing operations . It was a deadly move to agree to this decision . To overcome this , me and my subordinates strategize a completely new idea to operate with the slightly increased resource . As I am a new addition to the team , I was criticized for standing against , and the people were not ready to listen to our ideas as marketing team was considered to be in a higher power than other teams informally . Moreover , I was too nervous about pitching our solution when most of the members were against us . Selection The tool I chose here to overcome the obstacles was visualisation . I chose this tool because it helps you to express your thoughts and ideas in a structured manner when you 're nervous in front of the unfamiliar crowd . Not only that , as people were already kind of hesitant to our pitch , I thought they would remain unfocused during our pitch . As adding a crown to our problem , everyone would be eagerly waiting for the perfect opportunity for me to make any mistake . So using this tool would definitely put me in a better position . Application So how I applied this tool . Before pitching our strategy , we clearly discussed every nook and corner of the pitch within our team , including all kind of possible questions that might pop up . Even we did a cost - benefit analysis of our model to support our idea . So we divided our whole idea into different blocks as a small module in a sequential structure , mainly we used boxes to depict the flow of our thoughts , kind of flow chart . We made sure that it was too easy to follow and understand via the drawings . In this way , we eliminated the unnecessary repetitive silly questions that might have arrived due to our voice against the big player . Our financial cost analysis numbers came to a great support . Based on this , it was too obvious that our model of implicating high focus on the existing area is much beneficial and sustainable in all manner when compared to increase the reach to the new players . Insight This tool of visualizing was suggested by one of our teammates before the main pitch . Anyways this was my first interaction with this tool which came as handy to overcome our obstacle . Not only that but also it reduces the effort and time to a greater extent making it very easy for the audience to capture every nuance of what we are trying to say , which is the key goal of any communication . It also helps to identify our own mistakes before the big day , such as weak areas that needed improvement . Approach The things I learnt from using this tool is , it makes our effort easier in explaining our thoughts and ideas clearly without any struggle . My new addition for the next time would be to include storytelling with the visualization . I believe it would be a deadly combo because
storytelling keeps the audience more engaging with the twist of fun and humour to set the positive mindset , which has the potential to capture the crowd and make them agree to our terms . Winning the hearts of the audience would be the ultimate goal of any presenter .

challenge : The challenge that I want to capture is going to be : We have a problem with the internet of some university students and due to the health situations that the world goes through with Covid-19 , virtuality is the tool to get ahead , some students They do not have the resources to adapt to this situation , how can we solve it . Selection : The tool that we are going to use is the visualization ( Module 1 ) . Visualization for creative and intuitive thinking in search of a solution to a problematic situation should be done based on a key question of the creative thinking process that are :
Visualization is not about drawing but about visually imagining things in your thinking since human beings have the ability to remember things better and organize them better if they are visually attractive . Visualization is within us , innovation begins within us , not outside .
Application : Using the tool to visualize the problem reflected , we take as an application , which is the main problem and it is the connection or access to the internet of the students , we look for some ideas and we visualize them , as a solution could be study with the different students and Find out how they can improve the quality of the connection , facilitating them with aids such as data , devices such as laptops , digital tablets , among others . It was also proposed to work on an extra- temporary basis , that is , at different times than the other students , leaving jobs on weekends for the whole week so that they do not have to connect every day , and have complementary materials for the subjects .
Universities must find how to finance these aids , either with student fees or aid from the state or the committees that are part of this establishment .
Approach : Due to the current situation in the world , many things used for education and the preparation of people for higher education are limited , educational establishments and universities must try to meet expectations and seek solutions such as helping students students who need it , providing services , thus supporting each of their students with laptops , digital tablets , mobile cell phones , mobile data , internet connection , among others and so they can fulfill the responsibilities , although none of us were prepared for this situation , with visualization to find solutions to each of the problems that arise .

Challenge & Selection
I have started working as business analyst for a new client in the insurance industry a couple of months ago . They hired me to join a team who was asked to redesign an application for claims management . The current application is a nightmare for business users as it is originally an access database where a front end UI has been added . They have to manually enter loads of data , duplicate data entry in many systems , go through an enormous number of clicks to complete a task , and many other astonishing facts that made their work very inefficient . However , as many of these users were working for the company for years , they all seemed to have found work around to their daily issue and this what made our job very difficult . Indeed , we notice that people easily implement routines that prevent them from stepping out of their comfort zone and bring innovative solutions to their problems . So instead of starting from scratch in their mind , they were tweaking existing functionalities .
As our job is to understand business processes and pinpoint their pain points , we need to step away from very explanatory details and look at the big picture of ‘ why are they achieving this ? ’ to discover the full lifecycle of a claim from its intake to its closure . That way , we are reducing waste to provide them with a great and efficient user experience .
We decided to use a visualization tool to make it easier for the business to follow us on their new journey . After our first workshops with stakeholders , we started using Balsamic to create clickable mock - ups that could be directly tested by our users . It is a great tool that enable people to already have a feel of how their new application could look like .
Application
Once we have gathered the data that we needed , we started to cluster our requirements and prioritized them depending on their business value . Before going back to the business with our findings and our potential solutions , we wanted to make a visual interpretation of our big picture , of where we wanted to take them . We believed , from what we have seen , that it would have been much more difficult to convince them with bullet points in a powerpoint presentation . So we took our 3 best ideas that regrouped the majority of their individual needs and created mock - ups that represented the new screens of their application . As Balsamic allows you to link one screen to another , it makes it easy to create the feeling of a real experience , providing useful insights and greater feedback .
Once we had enough details in these mockups , we organized a demo meeting with our stakeholders . As our stakeholders are located in multiple countries , we did it over webex , allowing us to share our screen to our audience and drive them through the screens . We covered each functionality end - to end and asked them to note any idea / remarks that came to their mind while we were presenting . At the end of the session , we used sli.do , a Q&A and polling platform , to collect their first impressions on what they had just experienced and start the discussion .
Balsamic also offers the possibility to download your mock - ups in a clickable pdf and send it to your users . So that is what we did . After our demo , we sent them the pdf with the user stories detailing each step of the process for each new functionality . That way we could continue the discussion . They loved the demo , and we never stopped using mock - ups during our collaboration : up to now , we have
regular workshops with our users to make sure the functionality we create answer their needs and we use mock - ups for instant testing , feedback and iteration until the process includes all business cases .
It has also allowed users to express their creativity and get an instant feel of the accuracy of their idea . Once their idea becomes tangible , they allow us to challenge it and iterate it until , together , we find our design criteria .
Besides , users just love to play around with the mock - ups . They would go back and forth in each of the screens and think of something that could be improved or added . They make research on the internet and speak to colleagues or friends to find out about innovative functionalities that exist in similar systems . It ’s been an insightful experience .
Insight & Approach
Balsamic has allowed us to create a more collaborative way of working with our stakeholders . Now , instead of sending emails with bullet points , people call us directly on skype to share their thoughts . We then share our screen with them so that they can drive us through their remark and we directly apply changes where required . Together , we try different possibilities on the spot , challenge it , and decide on which one to keep .
Without mock - ups , our agility would have been compromised as other available tools for business analysts might sometimes be complex for someone with no IT background . Visualization has helped users think broader in many aspects of their lives , but more importantly , it has helped our communication and collaboration . People from different professional background might sometimes encounter difficulties understanding one another . That is one of the reason why there are now business analysts , people who translate business needs into actual IT requirements . After years of having wasted time and money in functionalities or application that did n’t meet business needs , firms realized that their teams did n’t unsterdand each other jobs and therefore it creates massive falls in their communication . Visualization removes this room for mistake as it allows people to speak the same language .
Using mind mapping for our requirement gathering phase has also helped us navigate into our users ’ mind . After having collected and consolidated all our data , we have pinpointed patterns and similar needs across different line of business and countries . We organized workshops in each country to present our data and ask them to map what could be part of the same functionality . We then asked them to select their top 3 functionalities and tell us why they really need it . That ’s how we get their painpoints and start thinking about how we could solve them .

Challenge & Selection
My company provides services to the Housing Market , working in the sale of and assisting brokers . Our challenge was to help a broker that did not have the necessary resources to rent furniture to be used in the demonstration of a house . A survey was carried out to identify what would be needed and what would attract the attention of customers present at the open house . The furniture would help to give customers a more vivid impression of the house , this way they would imagine themselves living there . We analyzed this data and thought it would be interesting if the furniture could also be purchased by visitors . We decided to talk to stores , to propose a partnership , where they would put the furniture on display for sale at the open house . In this case , the tool used was the learning launch , to identify if the people , even not buying the house , would be interested in the furniture .
Application
For our first launch , we talked to several companies showing our proposal , but they were afraid , because in the open house , not everyone is careful with the furniture . So , we proposed that two or three pieces of furniture were made available , just as a test , to see if it would attract attention and the customers would buy the products . After getting on touch with the company , we put the furniture on the living room for display , the rest of the house was decorated with rented furniture . The company supplied carpet , chandeliers , coffee table and paintings , but nobody ended up buying it . After the unsuccessful try , we tried to sell the same pieces but this time in another region and the sale was a success . When we crossed the data , we realized that the products were too expensive for the public of the first open house and the style did not fit its public , causing the difference between the open houses .
In the second launch , we returned to the first house with different furniture . We chose furniture that would be essential for the home , such as a cabinet and table , and moved from the living room to the kitchen . The adherence was much bigger , once some pieces would be necessary anyway to live in the house . We collected the data to return to the office and used mind mapping to compare different regions and different customers .
Insight & Approach
As a result of the application of the learning launch , we were able to have a better view of how to dispose the furniture during an open house , besides to understand better the profile of our customers . Now it will be necessary to analyze the results and organize the distribution of the furniture . On the other hand , our broker who had some troubles renting furniture , thanks to the first learning launch , got a commission that helped in her case .
In a new learning launch application , I ’ll go deeper first using personas tool . With the course , I realized that is possible to do a better research about the types of customers and their desires . In my case , it helped to identify that there were different customer profiles and choose which furniture to put on display .

My company provides services to the Housing Market , working in the sale of and assisting brokers . Our challenge was to help a broker that did not have the necessary resources to rent furniture to be used in the demonstration of a house . A survey was carried out to identify what would be needed and what would attract the attention of customers present at the open house . The furniture would help to give customers a more vivid impression of the house , this way they would imagine themselves living there . We analyzed this data and thought it would be interesting if the furniture could also be purchased by visitors . We decided to talk to stores , to propose a partnership , where they would put the furniture on display for sale at the open house . In this case , the tool used was the learning launch , to identify if the people , even not buying the house , would be interested in the furniture .
Application
For our first launch , we talked to several companies showing our proposal , but they were afraid , because in the open house , not everyone is careful with the furniture . So , we proposed that two or three pieces of furniture were made available , just as a test , to see if it would attract attention and the customers would buy the products . After getting on touch with the company , we put the furniture on the living room for display , the rest of the house was decorated with rented furniture . The company supplied carpet , chandeliers , coffee table and paintings , but nobody ended up buying it . After the unsuccessful try , we tried to sell the same pieces but this time in another region and the sale was a success . When we crossed the data , we realized that the products were too expensive for the public of the first open house and the style did not fit its public , causing the difference between the open houses .
In the second launch , we returned to the first house with different furniture . We chose furniture that would be essential for the home , such as a cabinet and table , and moved from the living room to the kitchen . The adherence was much bigger , once some pieces would be necessary anyway to live in the house . We collected the data to return to the office and used mind mapping to compare different regions and different customers .
Insight & Approach
As a result of the application of the learning launch , we were able to have a better view of how to dispose the furniture during an open house , besides to understand better the profile of our customers . Now it will be necessary to analyze the results and organize the distribution of the furniture . On the other hand , our broker who had some troubles renting furniture , thanks to the first learning launch , got a commission that helped in her case .
In a new learning launch application , I ’ll go deeper first using personas tool . With the course , I realized that is possible to do a better research about the types of customers and their desires . In my case , it helped to identify that there were different customer profiles and choose which furniture to put on display .

When discussing a complex topic , for example , a process which involve cross functions department , a new product design , a new lab setting , etc , it ’s quite hard to get all participants full attention , and catch everyone ’s key opinion , if we only sit in a meeting room and just talk in the air .
The meeting efficiency is quite low , and everyone feel frustrated and tired after a long discussion . The good ideas are missing or mis - understanding .
Selection :
Visualization tool is selected in my discussion of MAE ( Machinery and Equipment ) planning process . The process is related with a lot of stakeholders from different departments , and has several milestones to achieve . With drawing diagrams and the workflow on whiteboard , I assume participants can be more engaged in the discussion and open - minded to raise their questions or opinions .
Application :
I invited 10 participants from different departments to a meeting room with white board . Firstly , I sketched a simple diagram of the current process and marked the open points we have due the new organization set - up . Then I asked the participants to raise their ideas with explanation by drawing . In the beginning , there were storming ideas which stands for different perspective . But everyone could catch the point quickly because of the visible diagram . In the end , we worked out a clear diagram which show the whole MAE planning process . Every stakeholder ’s RASIC is also shown clearly diagram . The meeting is quite efficient , we print the diagram ( thanks to the technology , our white board is directly linked with a printer ) and attach this as a meeting minutes and agreement .
Insight :
The first insight of using visualization is that this tool increased discussion efficiency of a complex problem . People are more engaged and motivated to express their ideas when drawing on the white board . Visualization makes things more clear for other people to understand your point .
Secondly , it moves “ mysteries ” forward . We are easily to be blocked by a complex topic and afraid to take a step . Visualization tool gives us time to understand the problem . We can work out the possibilities before having a perfect solution .
Approach : Describe what you might do differently next time -- applying the same tool you selected or a different one -- and the reason(s ) why .
I will apply the visualization tool more in my future work . Not only the meetings of a specific problem , but also a larger workshop like business strategy . I believe if we use visualization tool
for a strategy workshop , the output is more visible . Other employees who did n’t join the management workshop could understand the strategy better .

The most difficult thing at the beginning of the association is not only creating art , but art that can interest a local audience . The night parties and concerts were the most successful at first among a group of young students between the ages of 22 to 26 . Musical and dance were more welcome than sculpture or audiovisual projects . After the first 3 years the association went through several ups and downs of the budget . until 2007 ... At that year we had the opportunity to do the first international urban art festival with Latin American guests in France . We were not prepared as an association for that time .
Latino Arte : Latin American urban art festival in Europe .
I ’d traveled to Bogotá where I was meeting the elite of local street art . Their desire was to travel to Europe and show their talent . The first step was to convince the other members of the association , that this was an opportunity to achieve several objectives :
1 . Create a true international art project
2 . Increase our visibility in the cultural spectrum of Toulouse and Colombia
3 . Incursion into another unknown but interesting artistic field
For convincing a group of people about a project , the most important thing I think is the visual . A logo with which a project can be identified , in addition to that I think is also necessary a poster or a cover image . With this first step ( the logo ) , people can get an idea of what it represents and how it is represented . Like the Latino Arte logo :
Once the logo is established , then it is necessary to continue with the visual to nurture the storytelling , a message or an idea . I was looking for a story or a curious fact . So I went to look that , in the history of graffiti in Bogotá . The strange thing is that it has to do with Justin Bieber .
“ In 2011 after the murder of Diego Felipe Becerra in Bogotá , by the police . The public opinion had as an excuse that he had been sought out as a vandal , polluting the streets of the city with graffiti . A week after this disastrous event , was Justin Bieber 's visit to the city . Where , accompanied by the police , he went under one of the bridges to do a tag . The police hypocrisy and citizens double standards , angered hundreds of urban artists , who in one night filled many walls of the city with paint in protest of the event . From that moment the mayor 's office , with no other choice , decided to provide support for urban art , and since that moment Bogota became one of the street art capitals in Latin America .
With this story in hand , it was easy to allow the other people get involved into the context , but the context needs an aesthetic , the visual set that develops the universe of the idea . The dossier :
With the agreement of the graphic content that would come to Toulouse thanks to the guests , only remained some problems . The problem of not having a previous basis for an event of this size , and no budget , so for those reasons some of the members abandoned the project for fear of failure . Of 15 associates in Guayabo , only 2 remained for the organization of the event and the search for resources . At that time we went to look for stakeholders in the world of local urban art , to ask them for walls . Paint companies wanting to recycle materials that were going to be sent to the trash . We even contacted a circus association called Cirque du Soleil , who gave us kind of a hostel for
the artists ' stay for ten days . At the end of a long process to leave our comfort zone understanding the complex world of Latin American urban art , seeking and finding new partners for the development of the project and reducing costs with collaborative solutions , the other members of the association were able to understand that the challenge creating the festival was not so much economic , but creative , innovating solutions for each problem . They decided to come back , stay and work with us . Since then the festival has become the most important project of the association , winning in 2014 the help of the French Ministry of Culture , in 2011 a contract with France Tv in Paris and with the Clermont Ferrand mayor 's office , and in 2016 a contract with the Lille city .

Challenge :
The challenge that I selected for this assignment was to plan , develop , and release a
promotional marketing video for a target audience in our industry . We were assigned a time period of 30 days to complete this challenge . This video was the first of 4 videos released throughout the year ( one per quarter ) that will market this topic to our audience . The project scope consisted of a 4 - person marketing department team and an additional 6 - person department composed of subject matter experts relating to the actual content that the video is marketing . The cost of producing the video did not include any external key stakeholders and no vendors were used since the entirety of the production efforts were being done in - house .
Selection :
The marketing team came up with several different iterations of how to execute this idea before
deciding on a promotional video . This video was the first of 4 videos that were launched throughout the year . We adapted the strategies and approach we used to develop the remaining 3 videos based upon the feedback of the first launch , which is why we decided to use a Learning Launch . A Learning Launch , used to test the validity of an idea or prototype , was ideal in this situation because we used the first promotional video to test our ideas with a real , live audience and measure the reception that it received .
Application :
In the Learning Launch of the first video , we focused on presenting our audience with an
animated promotional video for a variety of reasons . The first reason was that it was a great way to reduce the project costs , since our organization already had animation programs installed on its computers and we had employees who knew how to develop the content that we wanted . The second was that we wanted to present our audience with a unique video that they would remember , and animation seemed like a great way to accomplish that goal . If this video style was not well received by our audience , we developed contingency plans to ensure the future success of the marketing campaign throughout the remainder of the year .
Thankfully , the learning launch was a success thanks to effective application by the team and
the first video that we released was deemed a success by the management of our organization . Despite taking some risks on the aesthetics of the video , the feedback that we gathered from our target audience indicated that the video made an impression on them and that our message was being delivered effectively .
Insight :
Following the release of our marketing video , the response that we received was
overwhelmingly positive . Our organization took a calculated risk by deciding to produce and deliver a video in a medium that we had little experience in , and it paid off well for us . Through this Learning Launch we discovered more about our target customer and core audience , and we are now poised to use the information that we ’ve uncovered to continue making impactful and meaningful engagements with our customer base . The insight that we gained from this experience has taught us that often it
becomes necessary to stray away from traditional methods and strategies in order to stand out in an increasingly crowded market .
Approach :
Taking the inexperience that our team had in this area at the beginning of the project , a
Learning Launch stood out as the clear tool to help us accomplish our goals . While we were fortunate to achieve our goals in the first iteration of the video , the Learning Launch would have proven its usefulness even more had we not by offering the knowledge necessary to get the project back on track in order to become a success . Future launches will benefit from the feedback and experience that we gathered in this project and will enhance the production timelines for videos that our organization releases later .

Challenge & Selection Although there are couple of promising vaccines in the world , still we have been significantly suffered from COVID-19 since 2019 . It also critically affected to me and entire my life , family and my attitude to other people . Therefore , I think it is worth to investigate how people are feeling on the COVID-19 and come up with innovative ideas and solutions to cope with the challenges related to COVID-19 . I thought the mind mapping such as empathy map is a suitable tool for this study as everyone has his / her own feeling on the COVID-19 . That is why I selected the mind mapping as a tool and tried to collect all feelings from my colleagues and friends and tried to identify what are the challenges . Application First , to identify challenges , I made an empathy map categorized as six as following . And I distributed it to my colleagues and friends .
• Say : What are the explicit things the person says ?
• Think : what are the implicit things the person believes ?
• Do : What are the explicit things the person does ?
• Feel : What are the implicit things the person feels ?
• Pains : what are their fears , frustrations and needs ?
• Gains : what are their wants , hopes and objectives ?
After collecting empathy map , I deleted duplicated empathy and consolidated all information . Then , I tried to understand and reframe challenges by applying an abstract ladder . The reframing work was conducted as following 5 steps .
• Challenge ?
• Why is solving this challenge important ?
• How could this challenge be solved ?
• Discuss all options and decide which challenge to use for ideation
• Insert “ How might we ” at the beginning of your selected statement
After identifying and reframing the challenges , I conduct little bit more research on top ideas and then rate them against desirability , feasibility and viability criteria and selected one top rated idea . Insight & Approach Most of participants replied to me on his / her feelings on the COVID-19 . Based on empathy map , I found that most of them were under pressure and was being suffered from the COVID-19 . But , they did not lose their hope that everything will be fine and back to normal in the end . After consolidating all feelings , I successfully identified the challenges and came up with some ideas to cope with the challenges . The developed idea was presented to team and gave good impression . As expected , the idea developed by design thinking tool showed more convictive and gave clearer direction . Our team is reviewing the insight gained from this study and the developed idea , and I am expecting that a project team will be organized to pilot this idea . The pilot project will involve me as an initial cohort with cross - divisional representation and with varying experience and specialty . Members of management promised that they will also be participating and supporting this initiative , with possible participation and support from other relevant organizations .

I am a mechanical engineer , and whenever I came up with new ideas , it was very difficult to find correct tools which enable to deliver good message and make my idea solid . But , through this course , I was able to find appropriate tools , and I strongly believe they will be valuable assets .

After identifying and reframing the challenges , I conduct little bit more research on top ideas and then rate them against desirability , feasibility and viability criteria and selected one top rated idea . Insight & Approach Most of participants replied to me on his / her feelings on the COVID-19 . Based on empathy map , I found that most of them were under pressure and was being suffered from the COVID-19 . But , they did not lose their hope that everything will be fine and back to normal in the end . After consolidating all feelings , I successfully identified the challenges and came up with some ideas to cope with the challenges . The developed idea was presented to team and gave good impression . As expected , the idea developed by design thinking tool showed more convictive and gave clearer direction . Our team is reviewing the insight gained from this study and the developed idea , and I am expecting that a project team will be organized to pilot this idea . The pilot project will involve me as an initial cohort with cross - divisional representation and with varying experience and specialty . Members of management promised that they will also be participating and supporting this initiative , with possible participation and support from other relevant organizations .

It is very common nowadays that we buy products online or traditionally visiting local or multi - stores including but not limited to clothes , appliances e.g. a toaster or a car as well . Most of them are accompanied with a guarantee of replacement or repair for a specific period of time . What will happen though when the guarantee of the product we purchased expired and same will be damaged or defected ? As first solution is to visit the store where we bought same and request to have it repaired . However most of the stores do not provide such service as the guarantee is expired and suggest the customer to contact the manufacturer 's repair service and ask for maintenance and repair or to purchase a new one . As a result of the latter customers very often throw away the damaged product since they do n’t know where to find the right workshop to repair these devices . Therefore the customer is facing the challenge to find out where to go to repair the malfunctioned appliances in order to avoid to throw them away when they break down after expiration of the manufacturer ’s warranty . Needless to say that it is impossible to know where to find a repair shop unless one is located close by the customer ’s residence or work place .
Selection
I will choose to apply learning launch tool to archive my goal . My purpose is to generate increased revenues through conducting small experiments in the marketplace . A learning launch is a process for testing and improving ( or abandoning ) a new idea quickly and inexpensively . Although the process involves selling a new product or service to a customer or group of customers . Its purpose is not simply to sell , but to learn as much as possible . It is an experiment designed to generate insights and actual market feedback that can then be used to refine or entirely redefine the idea and to determine whether it deserves a larger commitment of time , people , and other resources .
Application I made a prototype of my idea , simple and fast . The idea was to make a mobile application so the people could locate easier and faster the right repair shops located closer to their home or work , where they could repair their damaged appliances when their warranty expires . The prototype was just a piece of paper with a draw of the application showing
main features . I conducted several learning launches inexpensively and quickly , that really helped me to refine my idea , to satisfy customer needs by learning from them . That resulted to add more features to my application .
Insight
Learning launch design tool proved valuable for my application . It really helped me to refine my idea . The result was to add more features to my application . These features included finding more service points that can repair various products from electrical appliances such as refrigerators , kitchens , to electronic appliances such as mobile phones , TVs as well as service points where someone could repair his car . In addition , have included maps of ( have mapping ) of each service point location mentioning important contact information such as a telephone , address and the website .
Approach
An alternative approach is to apply the visualization tool . Visualization is really important because it 's actually a way of unlocking a different part of our brain . It allows us to think in a non - verbal way and access parts of our brain , our creativity . This can be used in every stage of the design thinking process . The 3 skills of Visualization is listening , thinking and drawing . Listening is the input , thinking is the processing and drawing is the output . It is very helpful for pattern finding and to define if an idea is good or not . Regarding prototypes , visualization helps so that your idea will be presented in more details and more understandable by the stakeholders . It really helps to convince stakeholders about the worthiness of your idea .

GRADED ASSIGNMENT
( WEEK-5 )
Mind - Mapping
1.Challenge & Selection :
Every year nearly 81 % of paddy stubble is set on fire in the fields of Punjab & Haryana , choking the air in entire Indo - Gangetic plain . Biomass supply chain is highly unorganized and inefficient . The supply chain fails to provide assurance on quality , quantity , and price to biomass - based projects . Also , most of the farmers are not aware about the economic benefits of crop residue .
My challenge is to create a multidimensional network and ensure regular benefit from crop residue , thus enable circular economy for agro - waste . I have decided to use the mind mapping tool .
2.Application :
I think mind map will help us to design a simple yet efficient flow of paddy stubble from field to industry . Mind maps will help us to think , collect knowledge , remember and generate innovative ideas . Basically , it is a tool used for capturing the thinking that goes on in our mind .
To get started with the mind mapping , write the problem statement in the middle of the page . Then write the ideas that come to your mind . This will help us to come up with many ideas without worrying about their quality .
3.Insight & Approach :
By applying mind mapping technique , we designed an economically valuable flow of crop residue . The mind map has been divided into three stages , these are : -
a ) Raw Material Collection :
This includes collection of stubble from farmers and giving reward points based on amount of stubble .
b ) Industrial Stage :
This include supplying raw material and transport and storage facilities .
c ) Retailers Stage :
Supplying seeds and tools in exchange of reward points .

Challenge & Selection : Motivate and involve team for better profitability and customer understanding . As there was a lack of involvement and better knowledge on customer , team was struggling to earn better profits . Need some tool to make them understand on learning negotiation and customer . STORY TELLING as a tool which can solve this issue of understanding and seriousness by better involvement . The same is used for this experiment .
Application :
I have used two common stories .
First story is about learning of human attitude towards negotiation . Arrived from daily
experience of negotiation with vegetable vendor in India . Whenever we go for buying vegetables , we always go for the fresh vegetable ( Good product ) , while buying the same we will cross check the price of the product with other vendors and will ask the ( Good product ) vendor to match the lowest price . Though effective saving with vegetable vendor is not much but it ’s more related to human behavior on negotiation . The learning here is , the customer is likely to negotiate with us on our good quality services with poor pricing and we need to find the way out . It ’s on customer buying behavior .
Second story is of two car salesman . One salesman has offered a better price , but have
not done any follow up with the client . He was not even bothered to know what is the customer requirement and is happy to give the best price . Whereas second salesmen in this story take complete input from customer about need , members in family involved , who all will drive car , more likely parameters on customer empathy . That helped him in suggesting best suited vehicle . He also gone extra mile to visit his home with the suitable vehicle and make customer understood why he should go for the model which will be more suitable . He handled his customer very carefully understand customer financial capacity and need in better way . He done follow up with him and helped him in arranging extra finance . Obviously second sales men end up in winning the deal at much better pricing . This was possible only because he knew his customer better .
Insight
First story involved them how customer can negotiate . They might negotiate hard or
sometime unnecessarily or may be some time actual . They started looking at from all point of view and used it very well to save small money initially .
Second story helped them to understand importance of customer empathy . This helped
them to understand customer better and bring in more upscale .
Approach :
Personally found this tool as a very effective mean . This helped in better involvement of the team . This took them to experience , negotiation in a very different way . This also helped all of us to know our customer needs in better way . This also helps us to push our higher end products more easily . I use this tool when I need a deep insight of human empathy and customer understanding .

Challenge & Selection
I am an engineer developing semiconductor manufacturing process . My challenge is to solve technical problems such as a defect problem during semiconductor manufacturing process . We can improve yield of memory device by solving defect problem . Defect problem happened during pilot production of high- end memory device . My favorite tool for finding solution is the visualization . After visualization of process parameter and schematic of the process equipment , it is easy to engage with every stakeholders and root - cause of problem can be captured by much higher possibility . Impact of visualization is amazing . Semiconductor process is controlled by the recipe which is kind of table format of series of numbers . It is not easy to capture the problem from the series of numbers but much easier to capture the problem once after visualization of the parameter . Also , we have detailed drawings of each hardware , but simple schematic drawing is more powerful than detailed drawings of individual hardware .
Application
Recently , during pilot production of high - end memory device , we encountered a defect problem which is critical to the manufacturing yield . A meeting was called after defining problem statement and success criteria . We focused on visualizing each of the process parameters of the process . Series of control parameter does n’t show the problem well . However , after visualization of each process parameter , one of the process parameter shows one outstanding pulse signal which captures attention from every stakeholder . Discussion becomes enriched after this finding . Visualization of this parameter reveals that there is un - necessary high flow on one step of the process . Also , it visualized that plasma is turned on before having enough time to pump out this gas . One stakeholder who is an expert on plasma added a comment that it is a disaster to turn on the plasma before fully removing this gas . One stakeholder who is an experienced similar problem comment that this high flow will disturb all particles to the wafer . Once after capturing the potential risk , next focus is the visualization of problem with schematic drawing . Each stakeholder can be aligned on the same page and mechanism was built with high confidence level . After having strong model of the root - cause and solution , it is not hard to pull out additional resources to find a solution of this problem . Experimental plan was made based on this root- cause and solution model and the hypothesis was justified by the experiment . Eventually , we could achieve dramatic improvement of defectivity by this approach .
Insight & approach
By conducting visualization tool application on my work , I could learn that how much visualization is effective to ( 1 ) find potential risk & root - cause , ( 2 ) engage with stakeholders , ( 3 ) make consensus , ( 4 ) mechanism model , ( 5 ) design experiment for solving problem . Since I experienced that visualization tool is so effective for addressing a problem , I might also try series of other approach on this lesson for the future .

Reflection – Storytelling
Challenge & Selection
The challenge I ’ll use it ’s about building an effective organizational structure in an NGO , the challenge more specifically will be that volunteers can 1 . Identify , 2 . Feel deeply committed and 3 .
Effectively work in our NGO ; to give some background , we work developing and helping people in rural areas , and we use a lot of young volunteers , in the age of 18 - 25 years , so trough a Strong Leadership across the organization drive by storytelling , the organization could form a strong fort on the volunteering department . This is a challenge because we notice young volunteers have
the time to do this kind of activities , but they wo n’t do something that they are not inspired from , so our leaders working with volunteers , have to deeply connect with our core values and main task and inspire people towards action and a deep commitment to help our beneficiaries . The reason I select storytelling is because it ’s a tool that engages
people in an action , and injects energy , so your audience wo n’t feel trapped in just a superficial mission and vision , or a normal meeting , so you put a well - structured and compelling speech , and punch ’s monotony , and really starts a reflection aided by some powerful questions I know ignite change , and self - consciousness , this questions are , why I am doing this ? And What I want to achieve ? This Later brings really powerful commitment given you have done a reflection of your background . Therefore , I will include this method , that contains a powerful effect needed in our volunteers because , we have the resources , but our resources are people , just like you and me , so in order to achieve the connection required that really brings work and commitment in the equation , we use storytelling , and make this happen , but , we have to develop a narrative and skills with the aid of a strong leadership . I really look to reach the level of master of the storytelling tool , that Andrew Mendiola from Mars Co. showed up in his talk , this really inspired me to choose this tool .
Application
So in order to reach the level of commitment and drive work within the organizations , we apply
the storytelling tool , and we discover a few things , but first I ’ll explain the “ what I did ” and then “ how I did ” , the WHAT phase : First we think that in order to reach our commitment goals , we have to deliver a key message about the work we do , and also how the lives of our beneficiaries changes with a little effort of the volunteers , so we build the skills of storytelling in
our leaders and then apply this to the groups of volunteers , so we choose a story about this old lady named “ Juana ” , Juana was living in a very far rural area , she has a blind husband and felt depressed and left out of his community , his sons now grown up also do n’t visit her , so with the help of the volunteers helping in that village , she felt attended and part of their community so much that she shared how she was feeling , and we get to know her at a very special level that she was now our “ mother ” Juana , this was after we develop a real friendship and a close heart
to heart communication , with this story we touch some of the hearts and minds of the
volunteers , and meet the criteria to change the mindset , from a “ it ’s a lot of work and organization ” to a mindset of a “ We ’ll be changing lives , let ’s do this ” .
Now we move to the HOW phase , as the “ Juana ” story develops the leaders also build
a strong connectivity among volunteers so they will find friends instead of just “ fellow volunteers ” or “ the guy who volunteers with me ” and this is part of the how , because it ’s a structured introductory meeting , where volunteers know all the mission , vision , and goals of the NGO , and also helps them to know each other better , but also now with this storytelling tool , helps them to connect to the pure reason we all work here , change people lives . This tool at the time we applied with several groups worked really well , so we intend to do more of this introductory sessions with the storytelling tool and iterate in the way we tell it to perform it better .
Insights
By applying this tool we identify a series of key aspects the volunteer really want to know and may consider in order to develop a more committed volunteer community , the first aspect was deeply connection , the volunteers really want to know the inside story of the people they would help , his story and why he / she is the way it is , but in order to do this , we ’ve to make them curious about the work we do , another one was process transparency , they want to know how our processes are made , how we select our villages , the leaders etc . , and as they really dig out this information they were really supportive to help in other areas where they really do n’t need to , so they connect even far beyond their volunteering tasks , and last they want to really put the NGO a personalized touch , such as they sometimes feel improving one activity or changing some things about the schedule , this has been sometimes difficult but it develop richness in the process of constructing a more plural based NGO . So with this discovered we really like how the DT process reach a level of psychological and process change in our NGO , we really expect to apply in different ways this tool to really get the most of it , till ’ we become experts and build a more solid organizational structure .
Approach
Another approach could be use storytelling across an online platform , with some developing and engage content in our fb page , so this could give us some more hard number analytics
about the overall evaluation of the course and making it more easy and less time controlled , in order to achieve a personal level of impact , and then sharing it in a chat group . In conclusion we were really glad this whole course was very illustrative and formative , this way we really get the big picture about how our organization might develop strong leadership and build upon
iterative organizational cycles , because the storytelling tool puts really the emphasis in the most important thing we do as an organization , change lives .

### Input: Fernando Luis – Monterrey , N.L. México
Reflection – Storytelling
Challenge & Selection
The challenge I ’ll use it ’s about building an effective organizational structure in an NGO , the challenge more specifically will be that volunteers can 1 . Identify , 2 . Feel deeply committed and 3 .
Effectively work in our NGO ; to give some background , we work developing and helping people in rural areas , and we use a lot of young volunteers , in the age of 18 - 25 years , so trough a Strong Leadership across the organization drive by storytelling , the organization could form a strong fort on the volunteering department . This is a challenge because we notice young volunteers have
the time to do this kind of activities , but they wo n’t do something that they are not inspired from , so our leaders working with volunteers , have to deeply connect with our core values and main task and inspire people towards action and a deep commitment to help our beneficiaries . The reason I select storytelling is because it ’s a tool that engages
people in an action , and injects energy , so your audience wo n’t feel trapped in just a superficial mission and vision , or a normal meeting , so you put a well - structured and compelling speech , and punch ’s monotony , and really starts a reflection aided by some powerful questions I know ignite change , and self - consciousness , this questions are , why I am doing this ? And What I want to achieve ? This Later brings really powerful commitment given you have done a reflection of your background . Therefore , I will include this method , that contains a powerful effect needed in our volunteers because , we have the resources , but our resources are people , just like you and me , so in order to achieve the connection required that really brings work and commitment in the equation , we use storytelling , and make this happen , but , we have to develop a narrative and skills with the aid of a strong leadership . I really look to reach the level of master of the storytelling tool , that Andrew Mendiola from Mars Co. showed up in his talk , this really inspired me to choose this tool .
Application
So in order to reach the level of commitment and drive work within the organizations , we apply
the storytelling tool , and we discover a few things , but first I ’ll explain the “ what I did ” and then “ how I did ” , the WHAT phase : First we think that in order to reach our commitment goals , we have to deliver a key message about the work we do , and also how the lives of our beneficiaries changes with a little effort of the volunteers , so we build the skills of storytelling in
our leaders and then apply this to the groups of volunteers , so we choose a story about this old lady named “ Juana ” , Juana was living in a very far rural area , she has a blind husband and felt depressed and left out of his community , his sons now grown up also do n’t visit her , so with the help of the volunteers helping in that village , she felt attended and part of their community so much that she shared how she was feeling , and we get to know her at a very special level that she was now our “ mother ” Juana , this was after we develop a real friendship and a close heart
to heart communication , with this story we touch some of the hearts and minds of the
volunteers , and meet the criteria to change the mindset , from a “ it ’s a lot of work and organization ” to a mindset of a “ We ’ll be changing lives , let ’s do this ” .
Now we move to the HOW phase , as the “ Juana ” story develops the leaders also build
a strong connectivity among volunteers so they will find friends instead of just “ fellow volunteers ” or “ the guy who volunteers with me ” and this is part of the how , because it ’s a structured introductory meeting , where volunteers know all the mission , vision , and goals of the NGO , and also helps them to know each other better , but also now with this storytelling tool , helps them to connect to the pure reason we all work here , change people lives . This tool at the time we applied with several groups worked really well , so we intend to do more of this introductory sessions with the storytelling tool and iterate in the way we tell it to perform it better .

Mind mapping is looking for patterns and insights in a large quantity of data we collected during
our exploration of what is the current reality . The goal is to establish criteria for the what - if idea
generation phase . Which comes next .
I had selected sustainability Garment Making for this assignment . I am working at Garment
Company . Before we used to make garments from normal fibres . But now we creating
sustainable garments . What are the challenges I faced to make the sustainable garments ? I am
explaining as below .
Challenge :
Garments must overcome multiple challenges to ensure it creates a secure sustainable fabric
garments as a product while remaining aesthetically pleasing to the customer . The most
pressing challenges include :
Sustainability
Fashion
Recognition
Distribution
Freshness
Impressions
E - commerce
Rising costs
Selection :
Selection of the fabric , design size and quality were most difficult at that time because there
were several different choices in all over store . Each having their own benefits and drawbacks .
Cotton bags such as the ones in this photo are biodegradable . Fabric choice will be determined
by purpose of the bag and our budget . We might choose Fairtrade organic cotton for a planet-
friendly garments and we can choose from a range of weights starting at 4 oz and going up to
7 oz but our budget might only lend itself to a mid - range weight . The heavier and thicker the
fabric , the more expensive it is . So we have selected recycle cotton fabric .
Application :
Starting our first bag project can feel like a huge task , an exciting adventure or complicated and
could leave we unsure on where to start , which is probably why we are here ! Let us help us
with this simple guide that will outline each stage of the garment manufacturing process that
leads to delivery of our garment .
Garment made from recycled cotton and photo shoot
Recycle cotton has many advantages , such as its ability to control moisture , insulate , provide
comfort and it is also hypoallergenic , weather - proof and is a durable fabric . Cotton is naturally
absorbent and does n't show perspiration like synthetics do and it helps keep you dry naturally .
Insight :
Every project starts with a sketch or mood board that includes bag inspiration and preferences .
To make a bag we may have a garment we want to replicate and make our own ? This started
off as a sketch at some point .
We can send us a rudimentary drawing of a garment that is annotated to explain what it is we
are looking for and we can formalise that for us with a design visual that incorporates
suggestions and alternatives if required .
Other considerations at this stage include defining what the garment is for , what will its
purpose be ? Who will use it ? This is the foundation of an idea that helps determine the best
fabric for the garment or the best fastening to close the garment .
Approach : Perhaps the most common way to plan out a recycle garment project , the Waterfall
method is a simple sequential approach . Each project phase must be completed before
beginning the next one , leading to the end deliverable . These project plans can be easily
replicated for future use .

Challenge
I am the head of a diverse group of people who belongs to an automotive industry and our challenge as a team is to recommend and suggest the board of directors of our organization to select in which country amongst United states , Canada , China and India to initiate the setup plans and invest in the required infrastructure to introduce the concept of e - mobility as a service . This process involves lot of data inputs , interpretation and analysis . Our team is tasked to provide the best analysis of the data and to finally conclude in which of the following countries it should be implemented to benefit the organization .
Selection
Me and my team has already gone through various tools and selected the tool of visualization as the best and efficient one to enlighten the board on the insights gathered by our team .
Application
For our presentation , we have used data in the form of bar graphs and pie charts , as we are handling and comparing various means , we have structured the various collected statistics with which our team members divided among themselves , first presented a sample charts in order to confirm that the presentation using this tool is convincing and effective . Upon diving further into the project , we found out that adding the very famous SWOT analysis ( Strength , Weakness , Oppurtunity and Threats ) along with our graphs will be an added feature and helps better understanding of the same .
So our team consisting of 12 members , were divided into team of three , assigned with the task of taking each country , segregating and putting up the numbers obtained in terms of geographic area , ownership of vehicles , existing infrastructure , the age factor of people who can use e - mobility etc . Finally the team was combined and the comparison graph was plotted and simultaneously SWOT analysis was done at the end inferring all the collected data .
Insights and Approach
That was really a mind blowing , clear eye opener for our Board of directors during the presentation , the visualization tool of graphs , statistics and especially SWOT analysis done by our team gave them clear idea , the strengths of each country and also with our special approach of seeing weakness as oppurtunities based on facts were applauded and given special mention as well as our aim of suggesting the best country to implement the service was made available clearly to the organization .
Sometimes putting up all the numbers in the data in a piechart or graph is effective rather than simply quoting it by telling . This approach gave myself a confidence that with the right tool selected as in this case can easily convey our findings to a larger number of people .

Challenge & Selection
The first tool I used was a visualization tool , to achieve a common understanding of the problem space among different groups of stakeholders before identifying possible solutions to problems . I use this approach in my work . When I try to introduce changes or innovations to improve my work or my company , which will be useful to all customers . I used the thesis substitution technique in an area of work that was interesting to me . In the study of a certain group of people with this method , it was possible to identify key elements and tasks that should be focused on . This will provide an opportunity to improve my business now or help solve problems in the future .
Application
The process is worth starting by creating an image of the problem area . To develop a thesis substitution . When working , I will rely on existing materials available for study . Existing material may be training materials , marketing materials , and reports . If there are materials inaccessible to me , then I am conducting a study with a group of people . This approach of sociological dramaturgy helps to get an idea that each business or industry has clients with whom a service provider interacts that allow the market segment to satisfy demand .
The “ straw man ” system is simple using simple forms and icons available on the Internet . If sociological drama does not work or does not produce the desired result , you can use a different type of visualization .
To carry out the work , people were divided into groups . Each group represents a specific market segment . Each person in the group receives a poster with a picture of a straw man on which they take notes . They are asked several questions , from 5 to 8 , to which they answer . The questions are brief and simple , so writing notes takes about 15 minutes . After the survey is fixing common features in each segment . Sometimes there is additional information that is also recorded for further in - depth research .
Insight & Approach
In the process , I was able to understand that working with groups of people with this method allows us to include them in feedback , which is important to strengthen their understanding of the problem we are working on . Also in the process of such work , you can get new ideas , form new views on common goals . Groups of people in the form of certain segments can share their views and get an idea of feedback , which is important for such types of work .
With the thesis or “ straw man ” substitution technique , subjects can quickly determine where they are on the chart and more quickly understand the relationships between key objects , research problems . They can also identify variables in a problem space .
As a result of the work , the most important aspect can be called general understanding and training . In the future , I can use visualization as one of the points for a series of studies in project thinking .

We operate in the pre - clinical phase of the drug development process and our products and platforms are used by Pharmaceutical companies , CRO ’s , Research Institutes , Hospitals across EU , Asia and Americas . In my efforts for looking at new product developments to explore revenue generation opportunities we decided to enter into a 4yr project to develop Cognition based product and technology solutions targeting obesity research in young children . We collaborated with 3 external stakeholders including a leading academic University to provide us with the expertise in science and R&D along with a nutrition focused organization to test our hypothesis of developing an innovative platform that would expedite the cognition tests for rodents and yield high - throughput and high - quality pre - clinical data . Selection : Our collective team has gone through several of the design thinking processes including the creation of the product prototype and so we are now ready to move to the learning Launch tool . Our aim to perform an experiment to quickly test the validity of our idea and usability of the new product . Application : Our first learning launch was focused on the usability and efficiency of the prototype of our new cognition platform . In particular we wanted to gauge the ease of use and adaptability of our ( product ) prototype and cognition platform in the day to day operational setting in a laboratory environment . We wanted to also gauge how researchers interacted with the platform and if they were intuitively able to use the platform and take advantage of its benefits . This tested our assumption that our platform design and workflow was indeed more efficient and incredibly faster to use in comparison to legacy approaches of doing these studies . We arranged a 2 days training with the researchers and scientists to get them familiar with the ( product ) prototype and technology platform and get them started with using it . We worked with a team of 18 neuroscience researchers from 3 different groups over a period of 3 weeks . Through this exercise , we expected to gain insights into the usability , adaptability and the efficiency of our platform on a rating scale developed specially for these parameters . Additionally , we also hoped to gather targeted learnings about these parameters in terms of what was missing . Insight : What my team and I learned through the learning launch was that our product prototype was easy to work with and install in the Labs given its minimalistic square shape . The modular nature of the prototype ensured that researchers can scale it up ( by easily connecting several prototypes ) or down as per their research needs and through - put targets . We also got solid data about the ease of use and adaptability of our technology platform in several different research protocols . We observed that the researchers were able to start using the platform with minimal training and benefitted from having an intuitive experiment administration . The researchers were also extremely comfortable with using the detailed analytical features of the platform and were able to prepare reports
within the platform ’s domain without having to export raw data into other statistical packages . This saved a lot of critical time and the need to learn and understand other software packages . These findings were very encouraging and gave a lot of confidence to our hypothesis . Approach : Through the learning launch tool of Design Thinking we were able to ensure quick fact- based learning to move ahead with our project . We found this exercise very valuable . We will conduct a 3 other learning launches to further evaluate the economics , licensing and delivery aspects of our product ( prototype ) and technology platform .

### Input: Learning Launch for “ Cognition Research Product and Platform ” Challenge : I ’m a senior Strategy and Business Development manager for a technology company working in the Biotech industry . We operate in the pre - clinical phase of the drug development process and our products and platforms are used by Pharmaceutical companies , CRO ’s , Research Institutes , Hospitals across EU , Asia and Americas . In my efforts for looking at new product developments to explore revenue generation opportunities we decided to enter into a 4yr project to develop Cognition based product and technology solutions targeting obesity research in young children . We collaborated with 3 external stakeholders including a leading academic University to provide us with the expertise in science and R&D along with a nutrition focused organization to test our hypothesis of developing an innovative platform that would expedite the cognition tests for rodents and yield high - throughput and high - quality pre - clinical data . Selection : Our collective team has gone through several of the design thinking processes including the creation of the product prototype and so we are now ready to move to the learning Launch tool . Our aim to perform an experiment to quickly test the validity of our idea and usability of the new product . Application : Our first learning launch was focused on the usability and efficiency of the prototype of our new cognition platform . In particular we wanted to gauge the ease of use and adaptability of our ( product ) prototype and cognition platform in the day to day operational setting in a laboratory environment . We wanted to also gauge how researchers interacted with the platform and if they were intuitively able to use the platform and take advantage of its benefits . This tested our assumption that our platform design and workflow was indeed more efficient and incredibly faster to use in comparison to legacy approaches of doing these studies . We arranged a 2 days training with the researchers and scientists to get them familiar with the ( product ) prototype and technology platform and get them started with using it . We worked with a team of 18 neuroscience researchers from 3 different groups over a period of 3 weeks . Through this exercise , we expected to gain insights into the usability , adaptability and the efficiency of our platform on a rating scale developed specially for these parameters . Additionally , we also hoped to gather targeted learnings about these parameters in terms of what was missing . Insight : What my team and I learned through the learning launch was that our product prototype was easy to work with and install in the Labs given its minimalistic square shape . The modular nature of the prototype ensured that researchers can scale it up ( by easily connecting several prototypes ) or down as per their research needs and through - put targets . We also got solid data about the ease of use and adaptability of our technology platform in several different research protocols . We observed that the researchers were able to start using the platform with minimal training and benefitted from having an intuitive experiment administration . The researchers were also extremely comfortable with using the detailed analytical features of the platform and were able to prepare reports
within the platform ’s domain without having to export raw data into other statistical packages . This saved a lot of critical time and the need to learn and understand other software packages . These findings were very encouraging and gave a lot of confidence to our hypothesis . Approach : Through the learning launch tool of Design Thinking we were able to ensure quick fact- based learning to move ahead with our project . We found this exercise very valuable . We will conduct a 3 other learning launches to further evaluate the economics , licensing and delivery aspects of our product ( prototype ) and technology platform .

Challenge
I am an Organizational Psychologist working in a Non - Governmental Organization in
which its mission is to prepare and include people with disabilities in the labor
environment , conducting training and developing skills . Our challenge is to increase
the engagement of people with disabilities in activities and , consequently , increase
the number of inclusions in the labor environment . The project is limited to internal
resources ( ie budget ) . We will focus on trying to find out how people with disabilities
consider essential to be better prepare for the work and what they consider important
to increase interest in training activities .
Selection
One tool chosen was Mind Mapping , which consists of seeking the perceptions of
customers in a large amount of data collected in the exploration phase of the current
reality and generating hypothetical ideas through creative , visual and attractive
activities . Most people with disabilities are illiterate , which is why Mind Mapping will
be effective , as it uses visual and diverse strategies .
Application
Applying Mind Mapping , we focus on the perception of people with disabilities about
how training could be more attractive . In particular , we wanted to know your interests
and , from this process , structure the training with appropriate and attractive
methodologies .
The student group was composed of 30 students , of whom 10 students were
selected who participated in the Mind Mapping process . In the first task , they were
asked to create a collage of images that presented their perceptions about the ideal
training model for the job market . This projective technique was essential to identify
opportunities for improvements in the training project . In the second task I developed
a panel together with all the images presented by the students cataloged by themes
and a brainstorm was made , where the participants made improvements in their
proposals for improvements .
Insight
When applying the Mind Mapping tool , it was possible to identify the main
improvements that should be made in training and development projects for people
with disabilities in the labor . Through the Projective technique , we identified the need
to implement diversified activities , as for example , most of the participants presented
on their posters that they would like to learn about the work environment by carrying
out practical and not theoretical activities , or another very mentioned example was
the interest for films that could show the coexistence in the work environment and
the ideal posture that they should present in this place . From now on , the
Organizational Psychologist will carry out the activities of the training project and
then carry out the experimentation step .
Approach
That was the first design thinking activity carried out by the Organizational
Psychologist and as mentioned earlier , Mind Mapping is the appropriate tool , as it
made it possible to identify and innovate the projects developed at the NGO .
In addition , I emphasize that in future training projects , the design thinking process
must be carried out initially , with each exchange of students that occurs every 1
year , since each class is private and has diverse interests .

Challenge
I am a member of my Bank ’s online unit and my / our challenge is to enhance the functionality ( activities and projects ) within the unit so as to increase sales in the online platform and spend marketing budgets on the right crusade . The project scope involves the online marketing unit comprised twelve employees , and the larger marketing unit and in collaboration with our information technology department . The project is restricted to internal resources . The project should be executed within 27 working days and the solution includes uniform distribution of working hours amongst the unit members . We will target on trying to unravel what our team members , major stakeholders within the larger marketing unit and IT department , observe to be unsuccessful in respect to the workflow .
Selection
Our team has completed numerous design thinking / tools , so we are set to try the learning launch tool . The learning launch is an experiment meant to swiftly test a concept and model .
Application
Our first learning launch targeted on the building / execution of our online marketing jobs . Specifically , we wanted to see if we could build our jobs , projects and procedures to a suitable methods of framework project management for our tasks ( e.g. , seminars , meetings , reviews etc . ) for us to move quickly . This tested our hypothesis that the structure and execution were the cause or issues of our workflow challenge . Our team attended three - day training with a project instructor . We equally underwent six seminars to structure our jobs and procedures in a more effective manner . These sessions happened in two weeks ’ timeline . We expected to come up with a document of unambiguous description of our fresh , more detailed procedure / workflow .
Our second learning launch , we focused on attaining transparency about our tasks and preferences . This tested our hypothesis that our preference of tasks was the cause of our workflow challenge . Our unit concluded impersonal survey . Six major stakeholders from the larger marketing unit and information technology department also concluded impersonal survey . The surveys comprised questions about new , presented procedure , comprehending the procedure and the preference of jobs , and feelings about the change , and were conducted in seven days as the timeline .
Insight
By applying the learning launch tool , our team discovered our hypothesis and designed launches to test these hypotheses . Furthermore , we pondered over the expected results , waiting to see a more supple approach would enhance our workflow , and both our unit and stakeholders would be reasonably exposed to the new preference of jobs and procedure . Our main results were a bit different from what we expected : while our team / unit was opened to the preference of jobs and procedure , the major stakeholders in the larger marketing unit and information technology extracted some concerns .
Subsequently , our team will review this insight and integrate it into future launch designs . The integration is germane at this moment , as launches come before a full deployment in the design thinking timeframe .
Approach
Having seen that our team has concluded numerous design thinking activities / tools and are this stage in the timeframe , the learning launch is the correct tool . As earlier stated , out team is required to review the insight gathered from our first two launches and integrate this insight into future launch designs . Future launch designs should reflect insight gained , progress made , and come closer to a captivating solution ready for full deployment .

Challenge & Selection:-
I found Storytelling as a wonderful tool to use again and again when needed . People often misunderstand what people tell others . A story is something with which we can connect and also explain our views without the listeners getting offended or bored . I wished to work as a primary school teacher for the disabled children . So , storytelling is a very useful tool that I can use to connect to the little children . Storytelling , especially with the use of pictures or drawings may attract children to the story or an incident that happened which will help them in knowing one part of how to lead their lives in a better way .
Application:-
My younger cousin is a mentally disabled guy . Though he understands how to do things , making him understand why we should do it or how it will help him in the future is something that is hard for my family to make him understand .
Once , I took a story I read as a child , the ant and grasshopper story to make him understand that working today will make him happy and a better person tomorrow . I started with telling him the story with pictures from an old storybook I had and then I made him understand by explaining that studying and understanding concepts today , can make him a happy and successful person in the future .
Insight & Approach:-
This approach of mine towards my cousin was an eye - opener to my brother . It also made me realize two things , one was that storytelling was a great tool that can be used in any part of our daily lives , and two that the part of me where I wanted to become a primary school teacher to the disabled and guide them through a good path in my earlier days was not a bad decision .
And now , this course made me understand how I can use this tool and where all I can use it , I can now work as a teacher part-
time and also take up a full - time job in the field of business I studied .
Thank You .

Challenge :
I work as a system analyst in Supply Chain Management organization . My team is responsible for maintaining and enhancing systems / applications used by the organizations . Any changes to the system must be completed after alignment between stakeholders which include business owner , procedure unit , and Technical Team . The team was in charge of enhancing the bidding process to find a solution that offers electronic submission from potential vendors , while safely maintain their confidential information . The selection from the company was to utilize an existing procurement network , SAP Ariba . The challenge for the team was to ensure the system can be utilized and design a process that follows the company ’s internal procedure and guideline .
Selection :
Conducting an in - depth research to available system / application to do the e - bidding process was
not enough , what is more important is how can it be used to make sure the current procurement processes are reflected without sacrificing information security and compliance with internal procedure . The first thing the team used is a visualization tool that was developed to show the process flow diagram in collaboration with stakeholders . The diagram helped in identifying the key tasks in the current process . Also , the diagram was used to design the system tasks and used as a reference to ensure compliance with internal policies and procedures as it is with no changes .
Application :
During the implementation stage of the designed tasks , we faced some issues where the system process and capabilities was unable to satisfy specific procedures . Therefore , we had to modify
procedure or business process to fit with system capabilities . To ensure the system tasks were designed to fit procedure , few procurements were selected to be a pilot for the system ( Learning Launch ) . During the learning launch , we found out that some of the processes were not included in the process flow diagram . That required adjustment and correction of the design . Testing with pilots gave us more insights on how to improve the system and modify it . When the system was deployed , the issues raised by users had guided us to refine the process and streamline it more
and more .
Insight & Approach :
The use of the visualization through process flow diagram was very useful to explain the business process to technical team and break - down the process further for specific tasks to be developed in the system . However , a cross - functional group was required to ensure that all process were implemented . Nonetheless , we only worked with business owner and technical team , and neither were actually responsible for the implementation of the procurement process . We missed two key stakeholders : the end user represented as contract advisor / contract administrator , and policy and procedure team responsible to update the system .
The use of pilot ( learning launch ) was essential to find the flaws in the system . Whenever we had an issue with the process , we would conduct a meeting to come up with possible work around and plan to resolve the issue . I believe even though that we had a successful launch of the system , we
Design Thinking
would have made it more effective if we had the chance to train the team involved in designing the system in the capabilities of the SAP Ariba network . Also , I think we had a lot of changes after realizing that the exact process can not be translated as is to the system without enhancement . Our focus was to keep the procedures as is , and it should be improving the current process by doing a secondary research on the best business practices and interviews with the companies
using the same procurement system .

Challenge & Selection
I used the Visualization tool to get help with Visual Thinking , for understanding the benefits of having an inhouse developed and owned Data Management Platform and to identify and define possible challenges that we could get over just by having a unique data as being a mobile network operator . I use this technique with my upper management to convince them to invest on a long term platform , including development and data fine tuning tasks , which are heavy effort for any company that has this size of data and number of customers . Thus , the position of a DMP in digital advertising ecosystem is very critical for the future of this business .

First of all , every stakeholder should align on , where does DMP fit in all digital advertising ecosystem , from advertisers , to agencies , to adplatforms ( DSP and SSPs ) and publihers .. While big data is instrumental to effective data - driven marketing campaigns , you ca n’t do much with the raw information . You need it sorted and converted into a usable form , at least so you can understand what you ’re looking at . This is the power of a DMP .
A DMP collects and organizes data from a variety first- , second- and third - party data sources , and makes it available to other platforms such as DSPs , SSPs , and ad exchanges to be used for targeted advertising , personalization , content customization and beyond . Some people describe a data management platform as the “ pipes ” of ad tech — connecting many platforms in a neutral way so marketers can use their powerful audience data when and where they want .
This first - party data — that is the data you own and have collected directly from your own customers — can be collected based on specific behaviors such as clicks , downloads , video uploads or video completions , interests like sports , football , parenting , museums and travel or demographic information . It can also include demographic data , socio - economic data , influencer and action data . As an example , a business can use a DMP to collect and organize data , then use that data to target a particular ad to moms who are 25 - 35 , there are endless applications of a DMP .
Once the first - party data is collected , it is organized into a series of segments called a “ hierarchy ” , which can change based on each end user ’s business models . A large publisher network may have their hierarchy divided up into different buckets based on each of the individual websites they own . An agency can have separate accounts for each of their advertiser clients . Marketers could manage different brands ’ data separately , while also having an overall holistic view of the data at the top level .
If appropriate to the situation , then I will create a visual , either based on a high - level process flow with swim lanes for different stakeholders , or another format .
The final step is to activate the data , by putting it to work ! This activation step relies on the DMP having integrations and open APIs with other platforms , so that the audiences you build in the DMP can be seamlessly transported to DSPs , SSPs , and beyond . The most common DMP use case is running a targeted campaign to a specific audience via a DSP . Or , you can connect the DMP to your content management system ( CMS ) to adjust the content of your website for certain audience groups . The possibilities and use cases for data activation with a DMP are limitless .
Insight & Approach
What I have learned from conducting this exercise with several groups is that once we ’ve collected and organized our data , it ’s time to build unique audiences in DMP so we can identify most valuable segments and use them across any digital channel . For any particular targeted campaign , a marketer can predefine the target audience for that campaign based on data gathered from your DMP audience . So instead of choosing to spend your advertising dollars on a particular financial website to reach an audience of folks interested in finance , you can instead build a financial audience based on actual behaviors across the wider Internet .
Audiences can be built inside the data management platform using any combination of first- , second- and third - party data sources , which are combined using Boolean logic , which breaks down all values into either true or false . You can build as niche an audience as you wish , and are only really limited by the scale you need . Generally , the more niche the audience , the smaller the size .

### Input: Inhouse Data Management Platform – Visualization
Challenge & Selection
I used the Visualization tool to get help with Visual Thinking , for understanding the benefits of having an inhouse developed and owned Data Management Platform and to identify and define possible challenges that we could get over just by having a unique data as being a mobile network operator . I use this technique with my upper management to convince them to invest on a long term platform , including development and data fine tuning tasks , which are heavy effort for any company that has this size of data and number of customers . Thus , the position of a DMP in digital advertising ecosystem is very critical for the future of this business .

Challenge
I was dealing with a big problem in my organization about the ERP ( enterprise resource planning ) system , all people complained that the system does not work and does not give enough information and I was in the middle of everything because I was in the IT department and people do not accept suggestions to look to the problem in a different view because they look for only they problems and not the organizational problem , So we used some strategies that , today , I see it was the process of Design Thinking .
Selection
All department has they owns problems , but a lot of those problems was not because they job . It was a reflection of the wrong input of another department , but the manager does n't talk about those problems with other managers to hide and scaping his real problem .
So they start to think in change the ERP solution . And before to do that we start some investigative to understand all the needs and why the ERP does n't fit with the organizational . And we found the real problem was not the ERP , it was the people who do n't talk about they needs to the people involved . So , we decide to use Visualization and Storytelling to change that process .
Application
We start to invite all people involved into the process to take a look in to a overview of the process , so we create an workflow to the people be able to realize how the routine was today and keep in touch with problem , and discuss about it , explainning what they need in fact and what they want to receive to found a middle term with both departments who works together to found a co - creative solution and they use the Storytelling to explain they routines .
Insight
At the begin , the people was a little bit scary to expose they own problem , but when they start to see , they are n't alone and the same problem also happen in a different department and they had some difficult and in some case much bigger that they already complain . And after , they see the overview of the process they start to understand the relation of some activities with they routine and some small changes can generate big results . So , they start to explain by Storytelling all they needs and explanning the difficults related with rarely information . And together during the talking they found the real problem , it was not the system but the fear to explain the problems and to colaborate with all the people involved also explainning what they need , what criteria they use to evaluate the data and they decide to not change the System but to change the way of doing the same things . And after 6 months the company changed a lot of things , doing small changes but start to generate a lot of reports and also we found some thing that the process was made in a wrong way and it create an opportunity to improve and do all the things in a better way , not looking for only interest but look for the organizational interest .
Approach
This job will take a lot of effort to be successful because we are working with people 's wish and we did not work to show the people we are not againt them but together they found a solution together . So if I had an opportunity to do it again , maybe we would change the beginning with some lecture about design thinking because the people with those previous experience , they can perform with more acurace and it was really open - minded process , so some cases could be easier .

This is a description of a research I ’d like to conduct as soon as the corona crisis is less of a barrier or turn it into a digital process if need be . Hence , the description below is a scenario of our challenge and selection combined with an expectation of how the research will be .
Challenge
As a brand manager at a large FMCG corporation it is important to gain consumer insights first hand as described throughout the course . We are a highly data driven company and use large consumer studies combined with little primary research we do ourselves . This means that the data we use to innovate often leads to incremental improvements to what we have been doing in the past . In addition , the information that we do use is probably the same as the competition which does n’t give us the competitive edge that we need to truly innovate . However , we do have a culture in which innovation is highly stimulated so there is a lack of balance in the methods we use and the innovative mind - set within the corporation . Hence , we are lacking a method to learn quick and fast with relevant consumer data that is unique to our target group .
Selection
I ’ve selected the tool learning launch as it as a way to test a hypothesis quick and fast while mitigation confirmation bias as Hesse states in the learning launch tool video . Through the learning launch process we are able to integrated a new validation method in our way of working and seek for confirmations or disconfirmations of our assumptions instead of building plans on ( relatively old ) quantitative consumer studies and assumptions . Be engaging in the learning launch process
I ’d like to use the learning launch tool in a design thinking process in order to test and learn quick & fast to test findings that we think might be beneficial to our consumer group during ethnographic studies : home visits with our consumer base . We did start implementing a more agile way of working through scrum in the last 1,5 years so this should fit in with the agile way of working perfectly and improve it to add a new method to validate deliverables .
In short our key challenge is to develop a learning launch for a marketing campaign to introduce a new fmcg product in collaboration with our key retail partner while using our ethnographic home research as the key source of data .
Application
The submission provides a detailed description of applying the selected tool including all relevant information ( e.g. , what the author did and how the tool was applied effectively / ineffectively )
Our scrum team consists of several different team members with various specialities which made them the perfect group to implement the learning launch with . We had an online specialist , a category specialist , a retail specialist , a gen z intern and a media specialist in order to have various cognitive blind spots . Within the team I acted as the sceptic in order to make sure we mitigate confirmation bias the best way we can .
Before starting with the tool I explained the tool to my team with a short workshop to introduce the concept to the team and to fill in the learning launch design step - by - step given by professor Hesse . In this way we all had the same understanding of the tool . In order to gain data for the home visit in addition to our quantitative consumer study we performed around 15 home visit ethnographic studies in the homes of our consumers . This gave us several key assumptions related to the launch of our new products and how to best go forward with it . After this we tested 5 assumptions that came from the interview in 5 stores throughout the country . We observed how consumers interacted with
the communication of the new product and afterwards , interviewed them to gain a better understanding of their actions and how we could tweak the product launch in store .
Insight
What I think would be the most interesting timing for these kind of studies is to time it when we have to decide when we want to launch an internationally designed product nationally . So we should locally engage in this type of study earlier as the test and learn later on could tell us that consumers do n’t really have a need for this product and that we have to create a need . We often have incremental innovations that we need to teach consumers about as their knowledge is limited . Take a new mascara for instance . Consumers would like to accentuate their eyes either true volume or length in case of short eyelashes so that need does n’t change as much as our mascaras . So a mascara based on a lash lift trend might be too complex and wo n’t reach our mass target consumer that well as it is not their desire to have a lash lift at home as most consumers do n’t know what it is or have no need for it . This dynamic between international product development and local market insights is a big challenge in this process .
Currently , we mostly estimate the success of the product based on the brand perspective , our product portfolio and our quantitative research . When we locally test the launch success with the learning launch and the communication of the product the success will be way higher . This is currently little done as the global head office does these tests and it saves us money not to do so . Therefore , creating a cheaper and quicker way to test and learn we can make use of best of both worlds : international tests completed by local consumer insights to discover the real consumer needs we have in the market . If we can crack this and hence , change the way of working of our national markets I expect that we will create a much higher success rate of our products and launches as they will be highly relevant .
Approach
This study was the first time our organisation learned through learning launches via design thinking . Hence , everyone who participated in the study as a researcher was using the methods for the first time . Some practical challenges were to remain open during the ethnographic study and to make sure our researchers were n’t directing consumers into a certain thought .
Also , to collaborate with the retailer and to set up the learning launches in store took quite some time as this was also the first time . So yes , the process in the end could have been way quicker than a classic consumer study , however due to the newness of it all it took longer . Repeating the process will make sure we become quicker and better .
In the end , I expect that the learning launch was the best way to test and learn when it comes to our assumptions as it helps to generate innovative ideas instead of small incremental improvements to existing processes and products .

Challenge & Selec%on
I am currently working in one of the biggest banks in Singapore and was presented with a simple challenge .
How can the team transform our banking app to be more than just a u < lity app where people just come to
transfer money or check their account balance . This project was ini < ated as a part of our branding revamp
ini < a < ves in order to a?ract younger audience such as young professionals and millennials . It involved not
only a huge number of employees from different departments such as business development , marke < ng ,
product , legal , technology , data , and design . But also various consultancy agencies and vendors s to help us
deliver the solu < ons faster and be?er .
I picked mind - mapping as it is a great tool to expand our horizon in defining what is possible op < ons and
solu < ons . Basically mind map is a visual representa < on tool that connects different thoughts , concepts ,
ideas , or even process in order for us to focus or even find a solu < on to a par < cular problem or challenge .
Applica%on
At first mee < ng , we tried to analyse on what is currently present within our applica < on . By doing so , we
have a clear picture of what we have and what we do n’t have . Then we con < nue to define our customer
segmenta < on by crea < ng porto - persona . We also created a set of general expecta < ons , pain points , and
needs for each segmenta < on , then we created a user interview script which purpose to uncover their
experiences , ways of achieving their goals through our mobile applica < on , and things they wish existed in
the app .
Next mee < ng , we invited some of actual users to be interviewed and tested our assump < ons and see which
one was accurate . AKer that we tried to synthesise the insights and use this to see exci < ng possibili < es
using mind map . Having done it , now the team can clearly see how each insights can form a connec < on
through different perspec < ve and eventually touching the core challenge . The mind map can be found here :
https://ingram-castro.com/tagsmain.html
Insight
By applying mind map , my team was able to iden < fy opportuni < es , ideas , and connec < ons . We could also
see how accurate our assump < ons are and how it connects with different personas . Last but not least , we
managed to bring the same understanding , even though we all came from different teams and
backgrounds . It also gave a sense of ownership and connec < on to each member , making the project much
more exci < ng to be done .
Approach
Now I have discovered that the one of the most valuable aspects is the shared insights and collabora < on .
And mind map is one of the tools that I would always use I the design process . Alterna < ve tools that I would
use to complement this approach is affinity mapping and crazy eights exercise to quickly iden < fy areas of
opportunity and expand our explora < on .

### Input: Reflec%on – Mind Mapping
Challenge & Selec%on
I am currently working in one of the biggest banks in Singapore and was presented with a simple challenge .
How can the team transform our banking app to be more than just a u < lity app where people just come to
transfer money or check their account balance . This project was ini < ated as a part of our branding revamp
ini < a < ves in order to a?ract younger audience such as young professionals and millennials . It involved not
only a huge number of employees from different departments such as business development , marke < ng ,
product , legal , technology , data , and design . But also various consultancy agencies and vendors s to help us
deliver the solu < ons faster and be?er .
I picked mind - mapping as it is a great tool to expand our horizon in defining what is possible op < ons and
solu < ons . Basically mind map is a visual representa < on tool that connects different thoughts , concepts ,
ideas , or even process in order for us to focus or even find a solu < on to a par < cular problem or challenge .
Applica%on
At first mee < ng , we tried to analyse on what is currently present within our applica < on . By doing so , we
have a clear picture of what we have and what we do n’t have . Then we con < nue to define our customer
segmenta < on by crea < ng porto - persona . We also created a set of general expecta < ons , pain points , and
needs for each segmenta < on , then we created a user interview script which purpose to uncover their
experiences , ways of achieving their goals through our mobile applica < on , and things they wish existed in
the app .
Next mee < ng , we invited some of actual users to be interviewed and tested our assump < ons and see which
one was accurate . AKer that we tried to synthesise the insights and use this to see exci < ng possibili < es
using mind map . Having done it , now the team can clearly see how each insights can form a connec < on
through different perspec < ve and eventually touching the core challenge . The mind map can be found here :
https://ingram-castro.com/tagsmain.html
Insight
By applying mind map , my team was able to iden < fy opportuni < es , ideas , and connec < ons . We could also
see how accurate our assump < ons are and how it connects with different personas . Last but not least , we
managed to bring the same understanding , even though we all came from different teams and
backgrounds . It also gave a sense of ownership and connec < on to each member , making the project much
more exci < ng to be done .
Approach
Now I have discovered that the one of the most valuable aspects is the shared insights and collabora < on .
And mind map is one of the tools that I would always use I the design process . Alterna < ve tools that I would
use to complement this approach is affinity mapping and crazy eights exercise to quickly iden < fy areas of
opportunity and expand our explora < on .

I ’m into pastry industry and soon about to launch a cake house . One of the challenges we have is
understanding the models and flow of events and customer expectations . So , we settled on
visualization tool to enable us to conceptualize the concept better beyond just wordy
explanations . We focus on production , presentation , supply and delivery of the cake .
Selection
We settled on visualization tool because of its ability to visually unlock our understanding such
that we all are talking about a common design in production , presentation and supply .
Application
We used white boards to draw the production area layout . We were able to agree on a design
layout of the production plan and location of machines and physical spaces to paths . We also
used visualization to agree on the different shapes of the cakes to be made and which shapes are
best for which occasions . Color of the cakes were also made possible to discuss on and deliberate
to settle on the best . E.g. Circular shape and square shape of white colored cakes with flower
designed rims were suggested to best suit white , grey themes weddings and blue triangular cakes
best match for graduation parties etc . We drew the supply chain from production to the front
desk , packaging bay and to the customer . The type of mechanism to package and supply , the
material colors and shapes best appealing , the design on the packaging materials were all made
possible by the visualization tool .
Insight
All the present members had something to add at each stage and point of discussion because they
could see and conceptualize what was on the white board as opposed to the rate of silence during
such meeting when we usually did power point presentations . I noticed people were more
insightful to the discussion hence many brains yield the most precise and cutting - edge ideas . We
were able to come up with a production plan , multiple presentation habits to impellent on
different occasions and on different orders and supply mechanism .
Approach
In future we will use this tool when we need to come up with a deferent concept to the business
that people are having hard time conceptualizing . However , we would like to use launch tool to
test our approach to market entry to help us save on money and time .

Challenge
This reflection is based on a case from my experience with a service organization . The company offers maintenance and repair services of industrial equipment . When service engineers are on site they often find equipment potentially mature for replacement ( end of operational life ) .
With the project my team and I wanted to set up a lead generation process - implemented in company 's CRM - to target modernization opportunities for the above category of assets
Leads would come in from service engineers via a mobile app . One important requirement was to design a process with little overhead for service engineers and technical sales who would engage the end - customer . However the registered information had to be relevant to enable a meaningful engagement . Services and sales organizations were involved in the project and they were my internal customer .
Selection
We could not kick off a full project involving a large number of resources without having the process right , and a demonstrated upside .
The team , me included , did not have much experience with Design Thinking , however we worked agile and we planned for several refinements . We had few interviews with our customer - a relatively small subset of the service engineers and tech sales - to define the process , understand the workflow , the required data set , what we needed to report and measure , lead times , and hit / win rates , etc . Our hypothesis was that a proactive and facts based engagement with the end customer would lead to higher hit / win rate , above historical average .
We then wanted to focus on learning and measuring these rates through a live process , therefore we run a learning launch .
Application
After the process was defined , we briefed and planned the learning launch with the selected engineers and sales reps .
We used a progressive approach . We first simulated the data pushed by service engineers into the CRM , we created mockup leads and forwarded them to the sales reps to receive feedback on data quality . Thereafter we verified that service engineers could indeed and with low overhead ( 5 - 10 min ) provide such data . There were two important outcomes from this step :
Taking pictures of the equipment was agreed to be a quick way to provide much of the required information ( rating labels , serial number , visual inspection , type of environment , etc ) .
Often a challenge for a service engineer was to figure out end - customer relevant contact information , such as service manager , operation manager , facility manager , etc . so that tech sales could engage with the right person at the end - customer . This could be solved by enhancing the information in the " back office "
We then set on the learning launch as such , which was planned to last two months . The chosen service engineers were enabled to push data of candidate assets by using the mobile app . The lead was received in the CRM as an email ( at this stage of learning launch ) . It was then examined and enhanced in the back office by my team by looking up databases of known assets and customers . If the lead was qualified , it was then forward in the CRM to a sales rep who tried to engage with the end - customer .
Insights and approach
By the end of the learning launch we got more than 200 leads from candidate assets . We learnt the percentage of qualified leads and of those representing actual business opportunities with their value . We gather additional requirements for the improvements of the front - end app and the automation achievable in the CRM platform to enhance and qualify leads , thus reducing transaction cost .
We also discovered hidden expectations f.e . the need for a fair incentive scheme for service engineers ( sales reps have naturally one ) who were creating incremental value for the company . We had a stronger case , as we proved the hypothesis ; we better understood the implications and the cost for implementing the process in production , as well as the incremental value for the company . As I write the lead generation process has been running for a couple of years with significant business upside .
In conclusion , this Design Thinking course made me aware of the importance of the " learning launch ” , as a powerful tool for minimizing risk of “ failing late and expensive ” . The scope of a learning launch can be adapted , by selecting internal customers - in an early phase to learn quickly and cheap – vs. external end - customers to learn from real life feedback . I would say that learning launch is a robust end - to - end testing approach , which ought to be used in any new product or service introductions .

Visualization
Once at my job as a jewellery shop assistant , I realized that
my customers dealt with an enormous problem , which was
that they struggled to find the products they wanted to
acquire because they get lost in the numerous exhibitors
which were extremely unorganized . Unfortunately , my boss
had no idea about the problem because he did not spend his
time with the customers , what is more , he couldn´t
understand what was wrong with the exhibitors or how could
we change them .
Challenge
I chose the Visualization tool because I strongly believe that if he can
observe the problem as I do , he could help me to solve the problem by
getting a new way of organization . Visualization is the perfect tool
because if he can see the problem as I see it , We both can get a better
solution .
Selection
Appilication
The first step to follow was to understand the problem by the question
WHAT IS ? , when I discovered that our customers had problems finding
their products I made a diagram with drawings of how the store was
organised and the tour our customer follow to get a ring , I also add
photos of our clients and the most seller products
Insight and approach
What I learnt from this tool was to clarify your ideas and let others do it
as you imagine it to get a more clear understanding of the problem .
Since I discovered that the most valuable aspect is the shared insights
and learning , next time I would use the visualization activity as a
starting point for a series of design thinking activities . Then the revised
graphic that incorporates their combined feedback can serve as a
reference tool throughout the remainder of their work

Visualization
Challenge & Selection
I think that the Visualization tool is very useful and easy to apply in personal , work and academic life . That is why I decided to do this refection about it . Right now , I am still studying at the collage and in every team project I can apply this tool to do my work better . I will talk about one special situation of my personal life because I think that it is a good example to explain how I have been applying the Visualization tool .
First of all , I am a university student and I am not a really creative person but , I can learn better if I can see the things that I want to learn . That ’s why I usually do drawings and graphics to understand some ideas or some concepts .
In the last months , I have been doing some picture collages to express important things that can represent my projects .
Application
When I learned more about Visualization tool , I started to do something like a “ diary of dreams ” where I can write about many things that I want to do in the short , medium and long term . I believe that we can only achieve the things that we express and talk about , that ’s why I started to add pictures for some goals that I want to achieve .
This is an example of the Visualization tool because using pictures for my “ diary of dreams ” helps me to be more focused on what I really want to do , it is a very graphic method and it is useful to represent all the actions that I need to do every day .
For example , if one of my goals is to go to England , I use a picture or a drawing to represent that and then I add a list ( more like a collage ) with pictures for little actions like learn to speak English , get enough money , get my passport , etcetera .
Insight and approach
For me , this is a great way to be focused and also use this method has made one of my sisters also uses images and drawings to represent ideas , not only plans or goals like mine , but also school concepts and many other things .
I really believe that people like me , that learn better with pictures or in short , are visual learners , they can use Visualization tool to represent and try to express what they are really thinking .
Despite all , the next time , I am going to try to make a list more specific and more expressive before start to add pictures . And on thing that I learn using this tool is to be clearer with ourselves and with our ideas .

1 . Challenge
I work at an Elementary School . Recently there have been new schools opening in town which means more options for “ our costumers ” .
The challenge is deciding what new methodologies , tools , experiences and frameworks we will be using in order to retain our students and increase the enrollment each year .
2 . Selection
I used visualization and mind mapping because the first and most important part to me was brainstorming the most valuable aspects that we already have in the school to
compare them with the new schools and the aspects that our customers find more valuable ( may we already have them or not ) .
3 . Application
We started the process by brainstorming in the mind map these aspects such as … IBO certified programs , internationalism , bilingualism , technology , facilities , academic standards , etc .
Then we used visualization to show how these aspects really look like today -using pictures and brochures on a board- and included what we think we should improve or innovate to create the school we want it to be for us and our customers or potential customers . 4 . Insight
What we noticed with these design thinking activity was that most of the valuable aspects that we considered are already being hypothetically covered in our philosophy , methodologies and framework . But there are somehow small details in the day by day process that could be impacting the final results in our customers making them want to try something new or different .
5 . Approach
In order to approach this new challenge to identify what may be wanting our costumer
to try a new school or a different methodology I would now try journey mapping to achieve a shared understanding of the problem or problems identified by students , parents and teachers to define the most important issues and generate possible solutions .

Challenge I ’m student of engineering faculty , who is a member of the game development team as part of the Software Engineering course . Our project based on Unity engine.Our project is a horror game made with a setting of the 18th century . In general , the work on the project consisted in creating the plot , developing the interior and exterior of the game map , implementing lighting suitable for the genre , animation , filling the scene with all kinds of liveliness and creating artificial intelligence for them . Selection In addition to the interior and exterior , the remaining parts of the project are too flexible , so the effect on one part will have an effect on another . Which ultimately leads to unpredictable consequences.Therefore , the use of Learning Launch is rather not a choice , but a necessary measure . Application Listing the main experiments , the first of them was completely failed due to a conflict in the code . After editing , we made sure that the code works flawlessly . The next step is editing and testing the animation of objects . Like in the first run , an error was detected in the coordinate system ( discrepancies in the animation).The last experiment , which included work on lighting , fortunately turned out to be performed on the first try . Insight This approach allowed us to take risks saving a lot of time . Since in general the conditions allowed us to make many attempts to implement it ( it can be rolled back if necessary ) . Approach Of course , in the future , when carrying out a similar project , the likelihood of repeating errors will be reduced since valuable experience has already been gained . I think that with this specific work , Learning Launch is the only one possible to use .

I work in the Budget Office of a local government agency where I meet frequently with the Health and Human Services department ’s budget . One of their program ’s budgets is the Adult Drug Court . The Adult Drug Court allows people who have been arrested for non - violent drug offenses to avoid jail time by enrolling in addiction treatment services , meeting with private counselors , attending group therapy sessions , obtaining employment and stable housing , and most importantly meeting with the Drug Court Judge on a weekly basis to discuss their progress in the program . Once the person graduates from the program , has a stable job and housing , and passes all drug tests , then the criminal drug charges are deleted from the court record .
In evaluating budgets , the Budget Office uses performance metrics , such as the average length of stay in the program , relapse rate , and how long after graduating the participants relapse , and average cost per participant to evaluate how effective the program is . Almost all the data I report does not show the individual ’s journey . As a result , I found it difficult to defend the high program cost and its impact on the community .
I realized this was a great opportunity to engage in storytelling . I would gain the logic , emotion , and connection to the Adult Drug Court ’s purpose . I could hear their stories about how the Drug Court positively impacted their lives . That way , I could share their experiences of getting a job , finding housing , and finding recovery in my program summary with the Budget Director to maintain program funding .
Application
I decided to spend the day with a couple of the program counselors to better understand their clients ’ challenges and attend a session of the Adult Drug Court where I could hear from the participants themselves about the program impact . I noticed one participant who looked proud and confident as the Judge reviewed his weekly progress . She commented on his breakthrough in therapy and that his new job seemed to be working well for him . He responded that he had faced some challenges in battling his addiction , but the tools the counselors gave him were very effective . He also noted that working made him feel proud that he was contributing to society again and could support himself financially . I shared his story during our budget meetings to support the department ’s increased funding request for the Drug Court . Based on this experience , combined with the performance metrics data , the Budget Director approved the request .
Insight
The understanding I received from this site visit combined with a design thinking method of problem solving has motivated me to increase the number of “ site visits ” that I attend during the year . Experiencing the programs ’ operations will allow me to respond to questions and concerns that service providers , the Department and the Budget Office have . I will also see the programs ’ community impact and determine if some programs do not work well . During our annual budget discussion , I can incorporate storytelling by drawing on specific examples from my site visits to clearly illustrate the program ’s function and efficacy .
Approach
To improve the storytelling approach , I would increase my interaction with the program participants . Speaking with their counselors and hearing their testimony was extremely effective in gathering program information , but I did not have the opportunity to speak with the participants themselves . If I spoke directly with them , I could ask questions about what they thought worked well , could be improved , or hindered their progress in completing the program . I could then combine their personal accounts with the other perspectives , such as the counselors and Health and Human Services staff , and the performance metric data to make more robust funding recommendations .
I could also alter my approach by selecting multiple site visit dates for the same program and see how program participation varies by the season . This would enable me to ensure that the program staff did n’t pick the most successful participants on the day I attended and that the program is consistent throughout the year .

Tool selection & challenge The tool which I started using frequently is the mind mapping tool . I use the tool before beginning any college project , a piece of art and surprisingly to even type this assignment . I have a mind map ready beside me which boosts up my ideas and does n’t let me miss any points . By using mind maps , I know what my next steps are which is super useful and can increase the efficiency of the task . I have used the tool recently for my mini project assigned by my EVS professor . I used the tool to list out the contents of the project and made bullet points of the context under every topic . This makes finalizing the drafts easier . Application I start the process with a sheet of paper and pencil . I think using a pencil is a good choice as it helps in eliminating the unnecessary points and points which do n't fit well in later stages . Now on the back side of the paper , I write down four questions- WHAT IS ? WHAT IF ? WHAT WOWS ? WHAT WORKS? Now under the WHAT IS ? Block , i note down all the possible contents ( Keeping the mini project as example ) . Now comes the important step , for every content of WHAT IF ? I ask the next three questions ( what if , what wows and what works ? ) so that i could eliminate a content if all four questions do not satisfy and are n’t apt . After filtering the WHAT IS block , i move to the WHAT IF block , here i club all contents and check for various patterns . This helps in categorizing the contents and I could create situations and maybe find new ideas or have clarity in how the project is going to be labelled . The what wows and what works block get filled eventually . Now the whole idea behind this is to generate and experiment with ideas within the mind . This is a whole imaginary process which I feel is great to experiment with . With this , the main requirements are covered , i.e , Research , insights identification , establishing a design , brainstorming ideas and developing concepts . All this is possible if we find the perfect pattern . Another habit I inculcated while using the mind mapping tool is that I never create multiple drafts . One main draft with sub topics / sections is the best way to mind map . Having multiple sheets will only lead to confusion . Keeping the mind map a little organized will help in better understanding and finding the patterns between the contents is easy too .
Insights What I learned while doing the project is that having a mind map in hand while creating a project is really important as it saves a lot of time and helps in keeping contents organized . It is also important to eliminate context which does n’t fit the situation rather than keeping it and creating confusion later on . Another important step is to note down every idea possible in the “ WHAT IS ? ” stage . Even the smallest idea could create a perfect pattern and help in creating a project . This is everything I could extract from the Mind - mapping tool and after knowing others views I would improve my mind - mapping skills .

### Input: TOOL- MIND MAPPING
Tool selection & challenge The tool which I started using frequently is the mind mapping tool . I use the tool before beginning any college project , a piece of art and surprisingly to even type this assignment . I have a mind map ready beside me which boosts up my ideas and does n’t let me miss any points . By using mind maps , I know what my next steps are which is super useful and can increase the efficiency of the task . I have used the tool recently for my mini project assigned by my EVS professor . I used the tool to list out the contents of the project and made bullet points of the context under every topic . This makes finalizing the drafts easier . Application I start the process with a sheet of paper and pencil . I think using a pencil is a good choice as it helps in eliminating the unnecessary points and points which do n't fit well in later stages . Now on the back side of the paper , I write down four questions- WHAT IS ? WHAT IF ? WHAT WOWS ? WHAT WORKS? Now under the WHAT IS ? Block , i note down all the possible contents ( Keeping the mini project as example ) . Now comes the important step , for every content of WHAT IF ? I ask the next three questions ( what if , what wows and what works ? ) so that i could eliminate a content if all four questions do not satisfy and are n’t apt . After filtering the WHAT IS block , i move to the WHAT IF block , here i club all contents and check for various patterns . This helps in categorizing the contents and I could create situations and maybe find new ideas or have clarity in how the project is going to be labelled . The what wows and what works block get filled eventually . Now the whole idea behind this is to generate and experiment with ideas within the mind . This is a whole imaginary process which I feel is great to experiment with . With this , the main requirements are covered , i.e , Research , insights identification , establishing a design , brainstorming ideas and developing concepts . All this is possible if we find the perfect pattern . Another habit I inculcated while using the mind mapping tool is that I never create multiple drafts . One main draft with sub topics / sections is the best way to mind map . Having multiple sheets will only lead to confusion . Keeping the mind map a little organized will help in better understanding and finding the patterns between the contents is easy too .
Insights What I learned while doing the project is that having a mind map in hand while creating a project is really important as it saves a lot of time and helps in keeping contents organized . It is also important to eliminate context which does n’t fit the situation rather than keeping it and creating confusion later on . Another important step is to note down every idea possible in the “ WHAT IS ? ” stage . Even the smallest idea could create a perfect pattern and help in creating a project . This is everything I could extract from the Mind - mapping tool and after knowing others views I would improve my mind - mapping skills .

Visualization through visual imagery has been an effective way to communicate both abstract and concrete ideas since the dawn of humanity .
I have been able to identify three purposes for visualising : • to step into a problem ,
• to model ,
• to plan ahead .
The first of these purposes relates closely to the idea of ' getting started ' . The second and third purposes go beyond this and suggest that visualising occurs in the depth of problem solving , not just at the beginning .

Data is the primary force behind this shift . Decision making increasingly relies on data , which comes at us with such overwhelming velocity , and in such volume , that we ca n’t comprehend it without some layer of abstraction , such as a visual one . My visual communication will prove far more successful if you begin by acknowledging that it is not a lone action but , rather , several activities , each of which requires distinct types of planning , resources , and skills .
Visualising skills
We have spoken about why you might visualise . But , what are the underpinning skills that support the visualising when problem solving ? That is , the ways in which we visualise as we step into , model and plan . We have started to think about specific visualising skills that we should be offering opportunities for our pupils to practise and hone .
Internalising : Like the ' imagery ' of Crapo et al ( 2000 ) this involves being able to ( close your eyes ) and focus on a problem , then pick out salient features to represent and make sense of the situation . In the problem Cubes Within Cubes it is necessary to spend the time creating an internal representation that you can draw on as you work through the problem . Without this internal image any ownership of the generalisation seems impossible .
Identifying : Being able to identify a useful image or representation of an idea , which may be someone else 's , that means something to you . This representation helps you see or describe the structure of a problem . This is why a teacher might produce diagrams and images to support their pupils - sharing their visualisation may help learners to access the problem situation .
Comparing : Being able to scrutinise different images to identify what is the same or different , including :
• Being able to compare other people 's representations with our own .
• Being able to identify the general and the specific in a representation and their significance in
terms of the problem at hand . For example in a problem involving polyominoes , you might start with a domino ( from which you are going to build triominoes ) , asking learners to visualise putting two squares together . Recognition that there is an infinite number of orientations ( general ) is important but , in preparing to build triominoes , you only need to consider one orientation and to have that very clearly in your mind . • Trying to hold more than one image in your head . For example : remembering a starting point
and being able to ' rewind ' when a sequence of moves does not work ; keeping more than one aspect of the problem in ' view ' .
My approach towards this was very simple and based on basic and ethical guidelines and ideals Step 1 : Know what you want In order to visualize and manifest the kind of life you want , it 's very important to have a clear idea of what you want and why . This can be achieved by understanding what you value and what brings you the most joy in life . Have you ever had that moment when you were doing something and felt joyful doing it ? If yes , then that is a good sign of something you might want to have in your life . Step 2 : Describe your vision in detail This is one of the most important steps . When you want to manifest the life you want , you have to create a clear vision of what it should look like . You can write this down in detail or you could create a vision board . This will help you to create a clear and full picture of what your life would look like . Step 3 : Start visualizing and create the emotions Once you are ready , you can take a moment to start envisioning the actual outcome . Start to imagine the sights , the sounds , the smells and even the taste of achieving what you want . As you go along , do n't forget to feel the emotions you would feel , as if this " life " was your reality now . Step 4 : Take daily actions There 's a saying that “ Rome was not built in a day . ” Similarly , the life you want to create wo n’t happen in one day but will eventuate in a series of days and actions of working towards your goal . Do n’t get too caught up with how far you are , instead focus on the present and set yourself daily or weekly actions to get to where you want Step 5 : Have grit and persevere
When creating the life you want there , you will be faced with challenges . In fact one important tip when you are doing your visualizations is to imagine yourself facing these challenges and most importantly overcoming them .

Using Visualization
As a tool for improving our projects
To share an understanding of a problem or situation among a very different group
or set of target audiences , I rely on Visualization . Having a Branding / Design
background , taking a Visual Thinking approach comes natural before attempting to
identify and define possible solutions to each problem presented . I use this approach
often with our internal customers / stakeholders , who are different units working to
apply either technological or operational innovations to improve on their mission or
the delivery of the cluster of services to our customers . I work at The Panama Canal .
We cater to the Maritime Industry . Our clients are shippers of all kinds . To give you
some perspective , by providing a short , relatively inexpensive passageway between
these two great bodies of water , the Canal has influenced world trade patterns ,
spurred growth in developed countries , and has been a primary impetus for economic
expansion in many remote areas of the world . For example , a vessel laden with coal
sailing from the east coast of the United States to Japan via the Panama Canal saves
about 4,800 kilometers ( 3,000 miles ) versus the shortest alternative all - water route ,
and for a vessel laden with bananas sailing from Ecuador to Europe the distance saved
is about 8,000 kilometers ( 5,000 miles ) . I mainly doodle when it comes to the
visualization of a problem and bring forth a with a set of questions in order to prompt
PEER - GRADED ASSIGNMENT : REFLECTION 1
for discussion and allow a a different group of stakeholders to learn from each other in
the process of defining the scope , boundaries , key elements , and relationships
between all the points to consider when identifying opportunities and pain points that
may give for improvements or solutions related to our main service which impacts
directly on Global Maritime Commerce .
Application
We use something similar to a straw man graphic for our layout . To develop the
graphic , we collect any existing material available to understand the environment . The
existing material may be from procedure docs to marketing communication material ,
news , etc . If it provides additional help , we use previous research to reinforce the
notion that every service is tied together to interact and internal processes enable the
organization to provide our services efficiently . Then , a template is developed with a
column on the left to identify Partners and other players within our organization , labor
unions , advocacy groups , and other entities that may add constraints to how the
organization operates . While using a simple template and using simple shapes and
icons available in our design database or on the Internet . If this view does n’t work , then
I will create a different type of visual that better suits our purpose . For the activity , I
create small clusters of 4 - 3 participants each representing a different organization or
area of interest . Each group receives a poster - size copy of the template that they can
write on directly , or use sticky notes to make comments . I give them a couple of simple
questions to answer , such as : 1 ) What ’s missing 2 ) What would you change in order to
fit your “ problem space ” ? 3 ) What key insights come as a result of this ? Then , I provide
15 - 20 minutes to discuss all the questions and mark up the spaces in the graph . Then I
have each group report out on their answers to those questions while pointing to the
PEER - GRADED ASSIGNMENT : REFLECTION 2
mark - ups on their poster . As each group reports out , I record commonalities in the
insights of each group , and then additional insights that come from the group
discussion on an additional copy of the graphic . After the session , I bring everything
together in order to create a revised layout that incorporates all feedback and
proposed changes that the group agreed to .
Insight & Approach
This is what I have learned from this experience regarding multiple groups : It ’s
crucial that they have a clear understanding of the situation they as a group are
working to solve , the more valuable aspect of the activity is found in shared insights
and shared learning that happens during the process . The graphic gives the diverse
group of stakeholders a focal point for discussion that allows them to share their
perspectives and develop insights into potential root causes of their problems . They
can quickly identify where they are in the graphic and can more quickly gain new
insights about relationships between key entities instead of taking time to identify
them .
They can also identify other variables – that is , it helps them to identify what they
do n’t know , in what areas they need to obtain information or data to provide the values
for the variables .
Next time , I would switch it up and use the visualization activity as a starting point
for most of our design thinking activities . Then the revised end product that
incorporates their combined feedback can serve as a cool reference for current and
future work . This way , with every upcoming meeting or activity with the teams , they
have a better understanding of the process and even incorporate it to their work
culture .

Challenge & Selection :
Visualization is one of the most efficient ways of depicting the problem statement across stakeholder group who may or may - not be domain experts . The challenge was with one of the global fast - food retailers ’ internal technology support incident resolution timeline impacting customer experience and sales / revenue at the restaurants . I used the visual mapping to portray and define the issues along with the impact of current process / system on the overall performance .
Application :
I started the high - level mapping journey with the available documentation , content and understanding from brief session with the incident management team . We discussed the significance of each high - level step to understand impact and bookmark those steps for further drilldown to validate the assumptions . The next level mapping which evolved over multiple iterations was an outcome of detailed workshops including restaurants , incident teams and consultants dissecting each action / step , identifying current issues , time taken and included swim lanes to bifurcate the information and data flow between human- human , human - machine and machine - machine . I used simple images , graphics , shapes and flow lines to replicate the discussion and findings visually . The workshops continued with shift in focus to bifurcate the impact of actions / steps / systems as high , medium and low for improvement assessment and roadmap .
Insight & Approach :
The exercise helped me and the various stakeholder to identify key issues with the clear indication of which swim - lane do they currently exist i.e. , within people , process & systems . The visual mapping exercise allowed the participating groups to understand the perspective and working chronology of other departments while giving a holistic , end - to - end view of the incident journey , it ’s impact on customers , sales and highlight the major bottlenecks that needed immediate attention .
It also helped with corrections to the assumptions made while preparing the high - level map during the drill down workshops .
I ’ve used visual mapping for various such workshops , especially ones involving stakeholders from different domains or line of businesses . Visualization as a tool has always been an effective & largely most efficient mechanism of design thinking activities to depict the current state with clear direction of data / information flow between different set of handlers and systems .

Every day we must update social networks to reach our target audience , and daily we create goals to minimize risks and maximize effectiveness . Selection Our team has decided to use all the tools of design thinking , but to start , we believe it is important to carry out a customer journey map . Application Initially , we will analyze the internal consumer and our daily tasks at the time of doing our work . Every day , marketing ’s online department employees will be surveyed to find out how they feel about their daily tasks , if they really feel good and if they are meeting their goals . All this will help us to verify if the staff is satisfied and if there are activities that they can not carry out and that need support , to provide it to each one and train them . We want all our team understand each other 's tasks , to be more effective .
Insight : When applying the customer journey map technique , we realized most of the people who made up the team , had certain gaps in activities and tasks that they carried out , for which , the time was not invested in carrying it out but in training to carry it out . This alerted us and we wanted to help them and do dynamic and team trainings , so that everyone could participate .
Approach
Given that our team has already gone through several design thinking activities / tools and are at this stage in the timeline , customer journey map is the appropriate tool . Our team wants to manage their internal activities first so that we can offer the best in the networks .

CHALLENGE
My line of job is in the academic sector . I teach and mentor young people in government‐owned universities and secondary schools . Coming from a third world country , the situation is usually quite bleak , and surviving as a youngster is really difficult , especially for children from very poor family background . On starting this career , I observed a continuous rise in the number of school dropouts amongst this population of young people every year , resulting from this growing loss of interest in going to school . It became a source of concern for me in this particular school where I have been working as a tenured staff because even kids I would classify as highly motivated were not left out . So , I became interested in finding out the root cause / s of this problem and how I could be able to assist .
SELECTION
Not really sure of how to commence , owing to their age and inexperience , I felt , maybe , storytelling at least would be a way to share my personal experiences , with details of how I was able to finish my education up to getting a masters ’ degree in an engineering course from a similar environment as theirs . On one hand , the idea was to use my life story as a source of motivation and on the other hand , to draw them to tell stories about themselves , through which I would be able to know their problems .
APPLICATION
First , I had to discuss my idea with the head of the school , as well as in a meeting having the presence of other teachers and the parents of these youngsters . In fact , it was at this meeting that I got to know that everyone was particularly concerned about the situation . I was able to secure approval from the management of the school to always have a 15 minutes “ talk time ” every Thursday morning gatherings . Through this platform , I was able to share my story , especially how I was able to survive being born in a low‐income family . I was also able to invite people who share a similar background as mine and were very successful in their careers to come and talk with the students about how they have been able to achieve their career goals . During this program , we did not forget to let the pupils know the importance of speaking up , especially when faced with challenges that may seem impossible to overcome‐examples of which may include loss of one ’s parent / guardian , financial difficulty , abuse of any kind , etc . I used this opportunity to share a story of how I lost my mother when I was in school and how it affected me to the point of almost dropping out of college until I opened up to my advisor who helped me to overcome the problem . This really made the students a lot more confident about discussing their problems with the advisors appointed by the school , of which I happened to be among . By talking with these students , I discovered that majority had lost interest in school because they lacked real‐life mentors who they could look up to and draw inspiration from . To put in a summary , one particular student told me that ‘ there was nothing for them out there ’ after graduation from college .
INSIGHT
Through this means of storytelling , I have been able to personally connect with my students , especially in those other things that I would not have imagined could be a problem . Previously , I would not have thought that the apathy towards school‐related activities could have been hugely influenced by the seemly bleak situation in my society . Having found this out , we have been able to establish a network of successful professionals who now provide all sorts of support systems , which have led to a practical solution to the problem , not just to my school , but to other schools within my vicinity . This has also made us think within , such as revising our school curriculum to cover the prevalent situation in my society . Presently , rather than teaching the students about studying to be gainfully employed , we now focus more on entrepreneurial skills in our day to day teachings in the classroom . And the good news
STORYTELLING
is that more and more students have started returning to school because there are people who are always available to listen and provide solutions to their problems .
APPROACH
To be quite honest , even though I was not aware that I was making use of one of the four design thinking tools highlighted in this course to solve a problem , I do not think I would have used a different approach considering the demographic age group I was dealing with . Though , I must acknowledge that if this knowledge had been common , this problem would not have lingered long enough to the point of causing the students to lose interest in school .

Challenge & Selection
I prefer to use visualization to encounter the challenge faced by me . Visualization is one of the tools which give insights about the problem . Many things will be running in our brain , which can lead to the appropriate direction of the goal we seek . But only few of them might work . To understand whether the direction in which we are heading to will give fruitful results can be done visualization . Visualization can give us an understanding about how to approach a goal , are we missing anything and is there anything needed to be done to get near the goal . To me Visualization makes me closer to my goals which help to make my visualized goals come to reality . One of the common biggest challenges faced by everyone is Time Management . I spend time with family , friends , work , hobbies and learning new set on skills . I want to do all these things , but a day has only 24 hrs . I need to plan efficiently so that I can balance everything . Imbalance between the things leads to serious issues which can finally affect my health .
Application
To use visualization as tool for my daily time management , I have started with listing down the things I have to do and also how much time needed to be spent . Am I spending enough time ? Next I have made the schedule by using bars to indicate the time I spend for each activity . Color coding was given to each of the activity so that it gave me a sense of priority of things to be done in order . It gave me more insights to see how to rearrange my schedule so that maximum utilization of things can be done .
Insight & Approach
Visualization as a tool gave me some idea whether I ’m overloading with the things which I have to do . It gave me a sense whether I ’m lacking in spending time with family or heavily loaded with work . Which parts of activities to be adjusted so that things can be doable ? It finally gave me a way where I can use time efficiently and lead a happy life

Challenge
I work with an institution that help the vulnerable targeting especially those affected with HIV &
Aids in the western part of the Country , we work together with the hospitals in the region to
provide them with finances and Mentorship & support for sustainability and Continuity of the
services to the affected persons . Our big problem in the finance department was on how we are
able to collect Finance documents within 87 facilities spread across the region with minimal
operation cost - This documents included Finance Reports , Support Documents Such Payment
Vouchers , Receipts Invoices , Timesheets and Pay slips in order to make work easier and donor
reporting smooth with efficiency .
The problem solutions entailed 10 Finance staff and 5 Management Staff to come up with an
efficient system to sort out the challenge within 3 Months . The team were to brainstorm on the
design or come up with the ideas in that we were going to outsource the service but the system
was to be spearheaded from withing us in order to serve the purpose that was intended . We came
up with a team comprising of 3 Finance Team , senior Management Team and 2 ICT Gurus with
the aim of coming up with ideas and techniques which is best , Affordable reliable and efficient
solution .
Selection
Our selected team , went through all the design thinking activities to develop and try the system
that is ; what do we need , how agent is it needed , Problems to be solved by the system , the
challenges that might be experienced and how to go about it
Application
As a team we came up with an implementation strategy , first we came up with the Templates of
the required documents which will be adopted in the system , the system was to be called IOMS
Finances , Procurement . Program and HR Integrated system which was going to link all the
organization process starting from Finances , staffing e.g. , Payrolls statutory Deductions ,
Timesheet , Leave Form and Pay slips . Procurement starting from tendering process , Bidding ,
Quotation and in Finances it would link the invoices receipts and Procurement for all the
facilities . The documents we developed were to be tailormade to fit the 57 facilities and it would
be used across with all the authorization done online and filed online and below is the plan
Phase 1 2 weeks - Developing all the Required Documents
Phase 2 - 1 Week Uploading and tailor making the documents in IOMs System
Phase 3 - 2 Weeks Testing and linking all the documents , Processes in the 4 departments
( Finances , Program , HR & Procurement )
Phase 4 - Benchmarking on the 10 Selected Facilities
Insight
After the application stage as an organization we visited the baseline survey sites to access the
system functionality which we found out that it was really an amazing tool apart from the
challenge whereby due to the internet and network issues the facilities in the interior part we
experiencing a lot of challenges processing there needs in the system and with that our selected
team form a small team to tackle any challenges experienced in the system and provide solutions
for Example the issue with the uploading and Downloading was sorted out by proving the those

I work with Fortune 100 Retailers in helping them solve business problems through technology solutions . One of them , a leading Off - price retailer based out of the U.S , faced a unique challenge . The Retailer made most of their revenues from their physical stores , and their e - commerce revenues were very minimal . The challenge they wanted to address is to determine if we can , in any way , leverage the e - commerce channel for more revenues and to use that channel for creating consumer interest , and subsequently drive traffic to stores . Another data point that was made available was that , when compared to their competitors , their physical store sales are considerably high . That meant that they are doing something very right in their physical stores . Hence , it was decided that the scope of the project would be to truly understand what their physical stores mean to their consumers , and replicate that experience online . As easy as it may sound , finding what the physical stores mean to the consumers is a rather complicated exercise . On as - is analysis of their physical store experience by walking into stores , talking to consumers casually , and listening to the Merchandising managers , it was learnt on a superficial level that the Retailer provides customers what they call as a ‘ treasure hunt experience ’ . A simple explanation of that term is - as a consumer who had been to their Manhattan store before , will not see the same assortment of merchandise when you walk - in next time . This creates a tangible consumer interest / curiosity which makes them walk - in to their stores again and again . Hence , the hypothesis was defined as follows :
To generate more revenues and drive more in - store traffic with the help of e - commerce channel , it is imperative to re - create the treasure hunt experience online .
Selection
Retailing is a people - driven industry . The red scarf you see on a particular aisle on a particular day is a resultant of a series of decisions made by actual people - buyer , planner , vendor , distributor , and the store associate . All this is done to entice another person , in the form of a consumer , in the hopes to make her buy . Hence , it is important to talk to all involved stakeholders to understand what the treasure hunt experience means in their minds . In fact , within the broader definition of a customer , there are several segments – millennials , Gen Y etc . and they will have different interpretations .
Hence , the appropriate tool to understand what a treasure hunt experience is by employing the Mind Mapping tool . This tool captures the mind maps of the involved stakeholders , and helps them co - create the design criteria that define this enigma called “ Treasure hunt experience ” .
Application
To conduct the mind mapping exercise , the first step we did was to identify the stakeholders across the spectrum . The list included Merchandisers from varied departments , Buyers , Planners , Allocation Analysts , Distributors , Store Managers , Store Associates , Customers in 18 - 34 age bracket , customers in 35 - 45 bracket , customers in 46 - 59 age bracket , and customers > 59 age brackets . The total size of the group was around 15 - 20 , with customers being the majority of the group , followed by merchandisers , store associates , store managers , buyers , planners , allocation analysts and distributors .
Each participant was provided with a questionnaire on what treasure hunt experience means to them . Participants were also encouraged to prepare collages with pictures , post - it notes etc . The information gathered from these inputs was collated as sticky notes , posters and pasted in hall ways .
Insight
Then , we brought in UX experts , technology evangelists , Merchandisers , external consultants , store associates to sift through the inputs gathered . As part of the mind mapping exercise , they were asked to cluster similar insights . Some of the sample insights were – “ the front aisle should always have different types of merchandise every 2 weeks ” , “ The entire store layout should be visible from the store front ” , “ I visit the store every 4 weeks ” etc . The resultant of this exercise was that these insights translated into the design criteria that the proposed solution should have .
One of the hurdles we faced came with the involvement of a varied set of stakeholders . This resulted in rather broad and unrelated insights to the problem we were facing . So , our job was to make sure that these are identified and eliminated . This resulted in unnecessary delay . If we were to redo this exercise , we will be more stringent in identifying the stakeholders .
Approach
The experts were given a brief about the problem statement , and informed about the hypothesis . They then went back to their drawing rooms and thought creatively on what the various possibilities are , based on the design criteria . The experts were given a free hand to conceptualize anything , using any format – tech tools , piece of paper etc .
The alternative approach to solve this problem was from top - down . Looking at what technological options were available in the market , we identified those with strong resemblance to the problem statement we had . One of them we identified was Tinder , a social dating website . In Tinder , the user is presented with people who could be their potential matches . Based on whether they like that person or not , they either swipe left or right . We thought of replacing people with merchandise , and voila – we would get something closer to treasure hunt experience .

### Input: Challenge
I work with Fortune 100 Retailers in helping them solve business problems through technology solutions . One of them , a leading Off - price retailer based out of the U.S , faced a unique challenge . The Retailer made most of their revenues from their physical stores , and their e - commerce revenues were very minimal . The challenge they wanted to address is to determine if we can , in any way , leverage the e - commerce channel for more revenues and to use that channel for creating consumer interest , and subsequently drive traffic to stores . Another data point that was made available was that , when compared to their competitors , their physical store sales are considerably high . That meant that they are doing something very right in their physical stores . Hence , it was decided that the scope of the project would be to truly understand what their physical stores mean to their consumers , and replicate that experience online . As easy as it may sound , finding what the physical stores mean to the consumers is a rather complicated exercise . On as - is analysis of their physical store experience by walking into stores , talking to consumers casually , and listening to the Merchandising managers , it was learnt on a superficial level that the Retailer provides customers what they call as a ‘ treasure hunt experience ’ . A simple explanation of that term is - as a consumer who had been to their Manhattan store before , will not see the same assortment of merchandise when you walk - in next time . This creates a tangible consumer interest / curiosity which makes them walk - in to their stores again and again . Hence , the hypothesis was defined as follows :
To generate more revenues and drive more in - store traffic with the help of e - commerce channel , it is imperative to re - create the treasure hunt experience online .
Selection
Retailing is a people - driven industry . The red scarf you see on a particular aisle on a particular day is a resultant of a series of decisions made by actual people - buyer , planner , vendor , distributor , and the store associate . All this is done to entice another person , in the form of a consumer , in the hopes to make her buy . Hence , it is important to talk to all involved stakeholders to understand what the treasure hunt experience means in their minds . In fact , within the broader definition of a customer , there are several segments – millennials , Gen Y etc . and they will have different interpretations .
Hence , the appropriate tool to understand what a treasure hunt experience is by employing the Mind Mapping tool . This tool captures the mind maps of the involved stakeholders , and helps them co - create the design criteria that define this enigma called “ Treasure hunt experience ” .
Application
To conduct the mind mapping exercise , the first step we did was to identify the stakeholders across the spectrum . The list included Merchandisers from varied departments , Buyers , Planners , Allocation Analysts , Distributors , Store Managers , Store Associates , Customers in 18 - 34 age bracket , customers in 35 - 45 bracket , customers in 46 - 59 age bracket , and customers > 59 age brackets . The total size of the group was around 15 - 20 , with customers being the majority of the group , followed by merchandisers , store associates , store managers , buyers , planners , allocation analysts and distributors .
Each participant was provided with a questionnaire on what treasure hunt experience means to them . Participants were also encouraged to prepare collages with pictures , post - it notes etc . The information gathered from these inputs was collated as sticky notes , posters and pasted in hall ways .
Insight
Then , we brought in UX experts , technology evangelists , Merchandisers , external consultants , store associates to sift through the inputs gathered . As part of the mind mapping exercise , they were asked to cluster similar insights . Some of the sample insights were – “ the front aisle should always have different types of merchandise every 2 weeks ” , “ The entire store layout should be visible from the store front ” , “ I visit the store every 4 weeks ” etc . The resultant of this exercise was that these insights translated into the design criteria that the proposed solution should have .
One of the hurdles we faced came with the involvement of a varied set of stakeholders . This resulted in rather broad and unrelated insights to the problem we were facing . So , our job was to make sure that these are identified and eliminated . This resulted in unnecessary delay . If we were to redo this exercise , we will be more stringent in identifying the stakeholders .
Approach
The experts were given a brief about the problem statement , and informed about the hypothesis . They then went back to their drawing rooms and thought creatively on what the various possibilities are , based on the design criteria . The experts were given a free hand to conceptualize anything , using any format – tech tools , piece of paper etc .
The alternative approach to solve this problem was from top - down . Looking at what technological options were available in the market , we identified those with strong resemblance to the problem statement we had . One of them we identified was Tinder , a social dating website . In Tinder , the user is presented with people who could be their potential matches . Based on whether they like that person or not , they either swipe left or right . We thought of replacing people with merchandise , and voila – we would get something closer to treasure hunt experience . But in the end , we decided not to pursue this as we faced hurdles in deciding what the first set of SKUs should be . It also did not take into account the other aspects of the store experience , namely the layout , fixtures etc . Hence , we decided to go ahead with Mind Mapping tool as it will involve the right stakeholders who can provide a clear understanding on the question we are trying to find answers for .

Different team members are involved in many projects in various business units . After this course we decided that using visualization tool might be helpful to improve our performance and started using visualization in some areas more . Firstly we applied visualization for process design . During planning face of each project we mapped all related processes using visio tool . It was only simple figures , but helped to understand environment better . Also I used visualization to understand bigger picture for business areas . Usually business structures are visualized in the way of hierarchy . I did it differently and visualized business units according to projects we participate and contribute . It allowed to reconsider importance of business units and gave bigger picture Also team tries to do more visual presentations . We decided to use no more than 10 words in slide and rest of the part should be illustrated visually . It helps for readers to understand idea faster without reading long descriptions .

Example Reflection : Storytelling
Challenge
I work in Product Design & Development for a consumer electronics company . Our products typically perform very well , and receive great critical acclaim , but in general are primarily adopted by an older demographic . Our company had done both analytical and ethnographic research , both of which showed that we had products that customers were aware of , but younger audiences were unable to move past the consideration phase of the purchase process . We had tried different advertising , with different copy as well as more youthful images or scenes , and time and time again they had only managed to barely move the needle , if at all . We also saw that there were competitors with similar product sets that were able to gain more interest ( and later sales ) with their offerings , which made us question what the differences were and how we could improve . My team was challenged to look at our product offering as a whole and find a way to resonate better with the younger demo ( Millennials ) .
Selection
The challenge was levied upon my team from an executive management council , who knew we were a group that was very connected with the product , but also had a good deal of understanding of the problem , given that many team members were millennials . I preached that we needed to maintain a sense of consumer empathy , and that while we were at work , it was easy to ‘ drink the kool - aid ’ and have an inflated view of how we were perceived . Given our heightened understanding as a team , and the need to present a compelling argument to make some potentially radical changes to the products , I knew we would have to use storytelling to provide a convincing argument . With that in mind , we worked together to sell the challenge that we had identified , of updating the image of our products to enable them to resonate more with Millennials .
Application
Our company had always made really compelling products with fantastic technical prowess , which had some of the best performance relative to the competitive set . But what we needed to sell to our leadership team was the challenge that the Millennial consumer was looking for more than just a different color palette or video of younger people using older style products . We used storytelling to get this point across by referring to similar challenges faced by similar companies in other industries , and how they were able to evolve . Being a bit of a sneaker fan myself , I told our leadership about New Balance , which is a very strong brand for high performance footwear , but had n’t necessarily resonated as well with younger audiences . To combat that , they worked with some specialty designers to update their products to feature precision , high value materials in updated colors , and made them somewhat limited to help drive up interest . I had shared photos of special edition releases that the New Balance team had worked on successfully , which led to increased exposure in blogs and had kids camping out overnight to make sure they could buy these limited sneakers . I also showed that there were other ways that the team needed to address the entire product selection holistically , and how that resonated

very well . For example , Nike has their standard releases which are available broadly , but when they do a really limited release , they update not only the footwear design , but also the shoebox as well , which really helps the user validate their purchase ( which is often at a premium over the standard offerings ) .
As I was sharing this with the leadership , I could see their eyes light up a bit . Some were surprised , if not initially confused , about how sneaker culture could relate to our consumer electronics business . But through the storytelling about sneakers , the blog posts and photos of the droves of fans that would wait in line , and even some in person show - and - tell of how truly unique some of these materials and designs could get , the leadership team grasped the story we were presenting so much so that I was asked to give it to an extended team as well . In summary , we were able to present the point that we needed to make sure we were holistically approaching the entire product experience to enable Millennial consumers to really want to purchase our products .
Insight
The team agreed with our conclusion , and that we could no longer expect to just throw a coat of trendy paint on and think that would get the job done . There was of course some tension here : how would these changes impact our current offerings ? We had to be sure that we did not artificially move the needle TOO far in one direction , potentially alienating our current core customer . This led to us updating our offerings to have unique , limited variations , complete with custom , refined carry cases and packaging that was more considered and expressive . The results were extremely positive : not only did we move the average age down for the updated products , we also were able to get the gender split , which had been skewing far more male than female , to be much closer to a 50 - 50 split , which was a secondary goal of the program . What I really appreciated was that this was able to impact our entire design community , and put the focus that was deserved on making sure we spent as much time curating our design as well as engineering our performance .
Approach
Being able to tell a compelling story to leadership to help them understand the challenges of appealing to a millennial audience was definitely the right method to use for our team ’s time and deliverable constraints . Given the scale of our company , and the intricacies with our sales and supply chains , a learning launch may have seemed helpful , but in the end it was n’t realistic enough for us to execute . If we had to go through a different Design Thinking tool or exercise , for future innovations I would advocate doing some mind mapping exercises in order to get a better picture and answer the “ What Is ? ” question more thoroughly before transitioning into the actual product design and development .

CHALLENGE Just a couple of weeks ago I had a meeting with the board of the local retailers ’ association . They have been recently appointed and are keen to define a strategy to improve business opportunities and services for their members . The local contest is suffering general crises but , particularly downtown where there are only small shops , the situation is difficult due to shopping malls in the suburbs and , recently , e - commerce . Moreover , the city center is affected by unsuccessful choices made by local authorities mainly regarding urban mobility . The creation of a pedestrian area has been strongly opposed by shopkeepers but the recent decision to cancel it has been judged bad . Local politics are still considered the root causes of the wretched condition .
The association ’s mission is to promote economic growth of its members and of the local community . But how to pursue it in this difficult condition ? The first thought of the association ’s president has been to apply for EU funds but how , when and , especially , with which project and goals ?
According to the course ( Module 1 ) , design thinking was what we needed .
Why ?
- The problem is human - centered , and a deep understanding of the actual customers is needed ;
- We need to explore the problem ;
- The level of uncertainty is high and past data are not very useful ;
- There are not many data to analyze ( or better , meaningful data ) .
SELECTION To answer to the president ’s question I asked for pen and paper . I thought that the right tool was VISUALIZATION to easily design a program roadmap showing the main concepts and steps and identifying risks .
APPLICATION What I draft was a simple circular journey starting with the description and analysis of the current situation , following with the problems identification and then the goals setting . The loop , obviously , got back to the start position to go on and improve results . With this easy map right in front of us the discussion started and we could list and cluster causes behind the problems . Actions , and so projects , to carry on came up effortless .
Achieved the method , my little tip was to engage members and push them to put their heads together to repeat the logical journey and to think about new and attractive strategy to improve the appeal of their business . A little brainstorming went out from the first meeting and the main decided action point was “ We have to shake our minds and first engage operators themselves to disrupt and find a new value proposition ” . But how to do it ? True engagement is difficult to obtain . All participant agreed on the need for a wow event for a good start and for “ quick wins ” to keep the members motivated . The resulting idea was to contact the local university to organize a business
game with teams formed by entrepreneurs and students with some professors as facilitators , new and old school together to discover new value proposition for downtown merchants .
INSIGHT Visualization gave the participant a tool to put order in their thought and logically structure an analysis process . The roadmap set the path where testing all ideas keeping an eye to results . Even if an easy way , visualization broke barriers in communication and speeded up ideas .
I am used to use visualization and especially mind mapping as a describing and analyzing tool and I find it very effective now in remote meeting too .
APPROACH The approach , even not revolutionary , set a clear scenario where develop the discussion and gave a map to place reasonings and evaluate solutions . If we have followed a narrative approach in no way we could end in a valuable output in such a short time . Maybe we could n’t achieve anything due to the difficult to catch the attention of entrepreneurs for more than few minutes .

I mentored a session with the aim of helping to prioritize a set of initiatives to be used throughout the project . It was the first session with this profile that I was responsible for developing . It was a great personal learning experience , where I identified points to evolve , also generated great results for the project 's stakeholders . Application The process was carried out completely online with a smaller group of people , as a pilot initiative . Mural online tool was used to apply the methodology , the board interface was design before the session begins . The first step during the session was to align expectations and explain a little about how the workshop would be applied , also a discussion wheel with some explanations about the project initiatives . I applied the MSCW 's Methodology to prioritize the importance and value of the project initiatives , with 3 remote votes sessions which allowed to separate the four classifications of the method . Following the capacity , the second stage consisted of the complexity evaluation of each initiative , for this step , prioritization was applied using Fibonacci sequence , since the member had a technical background . When concluding the first two steps , that is , the value for the business and the technical complexity were prioritized , the initiatives were " plotted " in a graph with axes of complexity and value , and initiatives with low complexity and high value were selected " Champions " and adopted a higher development priority , being followed by other initiatives until arriving next to the high complexity and low value initiatives , which would be reevaluated if necessary . Approach Some learnings of the application were , even do the voting session is a concentration moment , the silence i d bad for the workshop , is time to share ideas and opinions . Also , during the session there were about 20 initiatives to be prioritized , is also necessary to reduce this number , to 15 maybe 10 . The team said it was confusing to prioritize so many things at once .

### Input: Challenge and Selection Recently , I had the opportunity to apply the Visualization tool , or Visual Thinking . I mentored a session with the aim of helping to prioritize a set of initiatives to be used throughout the project . It was the first session with this profile that I was responsible for developing . It was a great personal learning experience , where I identified points to evolve , also generated great results for the project 's stakeholders . Application The process was carried out completely online with a smaller group of people , as a pilot initiative . Mural online tool was used to apply the methodology , the board interface was design before the session begins . The first step during the session was to align expectations and explain a little about how the workshop would be applied , also a discussion wheel with some explanations about the project initiatives . I applied the MSCW 's Methodology to prioritize the importance and value of the project initiatives , with 3 remote votes sessions which allowed to separate the four classifications of the method . Following the capacity , the second stage consisted of the complexity evaluation of each initiative , for this step , prioritization was applied using Fibonacci sequence , since the member had a technical background . When concluding the first two steps , that is , the value for the business and the technical complexity were prioritized , the initiatives were " plotted " in a graph with axes of complexity and value , and initiatives with low complexity and high value were selected " Champions " and adopted a higher development priority , being followed by other initiatives until arriving next to the high complexity and low value initiatives , which would be reevaluated if necessary . Approach Some learnings of the application were , even do the voting session is a concentration moment , the silence i d bad for the workshop , is time to share ideas and opinions . Also , during the session there were about 20 initiatives to be prioritized , is also necessary to reduce this number , to 15 maybe 10 . The team said it was confusing to prioritize so many things at once .

I work in a company as a sales manager , which is responsible for manufacturing and marketing computers with the following characteristics : a 1.5 Ghz processor , 512 MB RAM , a 20 GB hard drive , and an internet connection of at least 256 Kbps which until a few months ago fulfilled the needs of the clients ' clients , but with the great offer of this product in the market , a sales deficit has been identified in the company ; In the first months it was not relevant , but little by little it has increased significantly , this has forced the company to rethink staff cuts , leaving many families without support , for this reason it is essential to create a strategic plan to solve this problem and increase sales ensuring the economic stability of the company and therefore of the owners and employees .
Selection
To solve this problem , mind maps will be used , which are a fundamental tool when generating ideas , it helps to translate data into information that can be easily communicated , it is also used to give solutions in an ingenious and creative way . With this tool we try to look for patterns and perceptions to find what the reality of the problem is , it aims to generate hypothetical ideas of what is coming ; The mind map is the alternative to a report written with graphs and spreadsheets , this is a didactic , creative , intuitive and eye - catching summary of everything that report should have .
Application
For the application of the mental map regarding the solution of this problem referred to , studies were first carried out to analyze what may be the cause of the decrease in sales by surveying our customers in which questions such as : What can we do ? do to improve our product ? Why do you prefer to buy other brands ? What has been your experience with our products ? To which the general response was obtained that our products did not fully meet the needs of customers , since other companies sold computers with better features .
Based on the information obtained , the next step was to carry out the applicability of the mental map , having the main problem as a central basis , from there we selected the most important terms that were customers and company , the next thing was to add the needs of each one in the branches that came out of each concept and then a possible solution to each of the needs that arose and finally the concepts that were related were connected and thus reach the conclusion , which consisted of improving the characteristics of our products to supply customer needs .
Insight and approach
After reaching our conclusion , we decided to improve the characteristics of our computers in terms of design and capacity , we also implemented new models to our products , since previously the company did not feel the need to update its products , because our sales They had always been constant , but thanks to the implementation of the mind maps and the conducting of the surveys , we discovered that we were no longer meeting the needs that our clients had to meet . In conclusion , to have a successful company you must take into account the opinions of customers , you must also constantly improve the products so that sales remain stable .
Another tool that I would use to solve this problem would be storytelling , since with it we could conduct interviews with different successful companies to receive advice on how to improve our sales and how to satisfy our customers .

Challenge
I am a member of Knowledge Management Team in my organization . We are owners in the process of creating , sharing , using and managing the knowledge base for the Service Desk ( SD ) . Our challenge is to improve the knowledge base in order to increase client ’s satisfaction . SD uses knowledge article from our knowledge base to solve end users problems with hardware and software . If SD agent is able to solve the user ’s issue during a first contact with SD , the end user satisfaction is higher . Our project includes promotion our knowledge base among Service Desk agents and improvement communication between the teams . We want to show them how to use knowledge base effectively . The project is limited to internal resources and should not exceed 30 business days . The solution should be simple , effective and does not consume much money and time .
Selection
Our team decide to use the Visualization tool . In our opinion is the best tool to identify pain points , opportunities for improvements or solutions .
Application
We start the project to create a graphic of our future newsletter . We will draw from any existing material available to understand the environment . The existing material may be operational or procedural documents , training materials , knowledge management ’s reports . We will create a template of our weekly newsletter . It should include the following information :
• When to send newsletter
• To who newsletter should ne sent
• List of new knowledge articles
• List of updated knowledge articles
• List of archived knowledge article
• New processes
• Client Specific information
• Knowledge Tip with troubleshooting steps for most common issues
The graphic should be simple , using simple shapes and icons available in MS Power Point .
We will create 3 examples of the template and discuss among the team and choose together which one is the best . The template with the highest number of votes will win .
Insight
What I have learned from conducting this exercise is that while the graphic is important for reinforcing their understanding of the problem we are working to solve , the more valuable aspect of the activity is the shared insights and shared learning that occurs while we are working to define the problem space . The graphic gives a point for discussion that allows us to share our perspectives and develop
insights into potential root causes of the problems . We can also identify variables in the problem space – that is , it helps us to identify what we do n’t know , in what areas we need to obtain information or data to provide the values for the variables .
Approach
We discovered that the most valuable aspect is the shared insights and learning , next time we would use the visualization activity as a starting point for a series of design thinking activities . Then the revised graphic that incorporates the combined feedback can serve as a reference tool throughout the remainder of our work .

Challenge I ’m a worker for a Cosmetic ’s firm . My job is to think about new product to be sold . The Make - up sector is a very innovative sector , because we have to introduce little new characteristics to our product to match the different need of our customers . And this characteristics changes according to seasons , fashion and trends . Our challenge at the moment is to understand what kind of product we have to produce , what type of product do our customers need in a specific moment , what kind of product our customer will need in the future . Selection I think the best way to understand what to develop and produce is the Learning Launch tool in design thinking . This tool allows us to determine if a product is going to be sold , if it is going to be appreciate by our customers . The only way to be a little bit sure about our products is to test it and to offer our prototype to the largest typologies of people . Application After we decided to use to Learning Launch tool , we started to talk about how to apply the tool to our product development e production . We gained some data about our customers from the social media and the online shop of our brand . We developed different types of product ( in detail foundations ) in different colors and asked to 30 people ( male and female ) to try it and to tell us if they would buy the same product . Obviously the packaging were not the potentially official ones . The foundations were about three types , a matte high- coverage foundation , a sheer low coverage foundation and a soft matte medium coverage foundation . All the people tried these 3 different formulas and then after a period of 20 days . Insight After 20 days the reviews arrived via e - mail . The opinion were analyzed and we discovered that 25\30 people would buy the medium coverage foundation , because it was buildable and so people could reach the coverage they need and also the finish of the foundation looked more natural . Less people would buy the matte one , because of its inclination to make the skin dry , but it was very appreciate for its high coverage . The less appreciated foundation was the sheer - one , because of its low coverage , but many people liked it for the very light and hydrating formula , even if they would not buy it . So we decided to produce the soft matte foundation and to do another test mixing the matte and the sheer qualities to optimize the product , we are going to test a foundation with the high coverage of the matte one , but the lightness of the sheer one . Approach We are very satisfied by the results this tool gave to us . Maybe next time we want to try this approach in combination with the visualization one , to better understand our customers needs .

Challenge & Selection
I was auditing this course to get some pointers on product design while I was working with three of my friends / ex - colleagues on an ecommerce product idea that we felt would be relevant for one of the developing countries in Asia . This idea involved passing on the maximum of the profit margins to the customers in a structured manner ( in form of cashback ) .
At the initial stage , we had interviewed few users in various age / income group(s ) to get a view on their needs while they shop online / offline for daily needs , many times observing how they use the existing products and how they give importance to specific functions as well as issues they are facing . We also use the rival products ourselves and related to our shopping experiences to get insights on what could be missing or can be improved .
In the next stage , while we are working on possible features to be included in the prototype ( minimum viable product ) , we agreed on using mind mapping technique . Rationale for this decision was that this technique , we felt , would help us to put in perspective the data that we had collected to collectively agree on the unstated needs of the personas we spoke to and come up with innovative ideas to fulfil theses needs . Our ultimate aim was to agree on top priority features that we need to include in our prototype to test it with our ‘ key users ’ . I could related to the solution that we were looking for in ‘ Module 3 ’ of the course where the trainer mentioned that mind mapping technique can be used for identifying patterns & themes from your data .
Application
We started this process by gathering in our work room ( spare room that we had used to put story boards during our data collection stage ) . Most of the data was available on boards that we have captured during interviews , research as well as discussions we had done within the team , and it was spread un - mapped across various boards .
We then asked the team members ( total 6 – four team members and 2 developer interns ) to go through each board and note down the ideas / pointers that they feel would help to form new patterns or innovative features for the personas we have studied . We allowed 45 mins for this step .
We then took a short break and gathered again to create a mind map of the ideas / themes that we have noted down individually . This was done as per the guidelines given in the course module 3 – one of the team member started with a theme and placing his notes related to the theme on the mind - mapping board . This was followed by other team members placing their notes to the same theme . This was followed by the next member presenting a theme and he and everyone placing their notes for this theme on the board . We allowed the concept of theme and feature to be interchangeable as our aim was to come up with key features to be included in our prototype . We took two hours for this step .
Once this step was completed , we worked together to come up with a one sentence description of each theme or feature into a key product feature that we can related to the product that we plan to build . Each of the product features that were put in the mind - map was then rated by each team member as either - High , Medium and Low which helped us to come with a prioritized product backlog of key new / innovative features that we could include in our prototype . The highest - ranking features could be included in the minimum viable product ( MVP ) .
Insights & Approach
While we did this mind mapping exercise together as a team , we learned that using this technique is more efficient and a structural way to process the huge amount of data that we had collected to come up with key themes and ideas than the erstwhile linear / brain storming methods that we had early to achieve the same purpose . Processing the data can be a quiet time consuming and stressful task and get un - productive if a collaborative approach is not used hence killing the creativity of the team while working on a new product idea . We found this technique efficient in coming up with innovative themes at the same keeping shared understating between the team members .
Design thinking techniques , as a whole , we found that is about following a structured way to innovative on the problems faced by customers , or fulfilling underlying needs that they have and mind mapping is very effective to get creative heads together to achieve this goal by keeping shared understanding at the base .
If I get an opportunity to apply mind mapping techniques again with my team or the organization that I am working in as lead Business Analyst , I would try to get a bigger and diverse team of ‘ shoppers ’ to do participate in exercise to ensure to get more creative ideas / themes to the problem that we are trying to solve , and come up with clear design criteria for the product / solution that we are trying to build .

Design thinking techniques , as a whole , we found that is about following a structured way to innovative on the problems faced by customers , or fulfilling underlying needs that they have and mind mapping is very effective to get creative heads together to achieve this goal by keeping shared understanding at the base .
If I get an opportunity to apply mind mapping techniques again with my team or the organization that I am working in as lead Business Analyst , I would try to get a bigger and diverse team of ‘ shoppers ’ to do participate in exercise to ensure to get more creative ideas / themes to the problem that we are trying to solve , and come up with clear design criteria for the product / solution that we are trying to build .

Challenge
In my development team we have a need to test different hypotheses about machine learning methods application for business needs . And our challenge was to organize this process , so stakeholders without technical knowledge could test different approaches and define which solution suites best .
Selection
Based on our task we decided that the best design thinking tool is the learning launch . It covers all needs in fast testing of ML engineers ' hypotheses on how to meet a list of business requirements .
Application
So , for the application of the learning launch tool we decided to change our development process . After gathering business requirements from stakeholders we added a new procedure for ML engineers - they create several different approaches to solve one problem in order to give stakeholders the ability to choose the best solution .
Main challenge was to create a mechanism to allow stakeholders to test these approaches in parallel . To make this happen I proposed improvements for our development process - create one general interface for all solutions in scope of a problem we ’re working on . Second improvement was for the deployment process : the idea was to have all solutions together , so stakeholders can easily test them in parallel .
These changes allow us to get most from learning launch - we have ability to test solutions , get feedback from stakeholders and repeat this process without time consuming actions between iterations .
Insight & Approach
Learning launch design thinking tool exceed our expectations ! It helps us to solve our key problem in sharing results with stakeholders and gathering their feedback . Now we can implement several totally different solutions and give them directly to stakeholders . General interface also allows us to apply the same synthetic tests to compare results of ML solutions . And it is easier to improve results after processing feedback and test results .
After successful implementation of the learning launch we plan to integrate more design thinking tools to our research and development process . I believe that we can greatly benefit from these changes .

Design Thinking for Innovation - visualization tool
Visualization – tool for Industrial Automation
Challenge : Extreme commerce ( IDEEA ) is a renowned food and beverage industry in Bangladesh . IDEEA is not only a pioneer but also an industrial giant in the whole country FMCG sector . With no doubt , their employees are very skilled and they have been with this company since beginning . Hence , the recent cutting edge industrial models are not so much familiar to them . Still AME using manual human based product distribution process for finished goods delivery system . Our team went there with a proposal for a smart automated finished goods distribution solution . This reading will demonstrate the challenges we faced and using a design tool – visualization , which tremendously helped out our team to pass the barrier successfully .
After collecting all the legacy and running industrial data , our team prepared an auto solution project proposal for them . But the orthodox IDEEA factory was rigid at their current position and did not accept any system manipulation over the running system . Factory management also had a gap of understanding how the automated process would work and unfortunately had a huge lack of confidence about the new changes .
Interaction & Tool Selection :
Individually all of our team members were very much enthusiastic and visionary about this project . If this project would be successfully implemented , this could be a milestone in the field of industrial automation . So we tried to interact with all departments which were directly or indirectly connected with the goods distribution system . Then according to our internal team discussion , we selected visualization as a design tool for the project proposal delineation . For this project , we selected this tool after some comparative analysis over some other tools for instance learning lunch , storytelling , mind mapping etc . Application : According to Angela Myer , a successful experienced designer , Visualization tool is a non - verbal way of communication and equally reachable to everyone . We used this tool with multiple relevant Images , videos , diagrams , symbols and colorful sketches . So that illustration process lucidly focused on the drawback of their running manual system and the respective department easily identified the gap and future scope of their improvements . The HR department understood the loss of production line efficiency due to unavailability of workers in time . In addition , company management realized the cumulative production loss hour yearly as well .
Figure : Implementation of visualization tool at customer preach .
Our team applied this visualization tool in three different sections . Firstly , to create an overall idea about the proposal for that we presented a flow chart of functional block diagrams describing work process . Secondly , PowerPoint presentation for the running system drawbacks and impacts on

business . Finally , an animation proposed the new setup which would eliminate the weak part of the current setup as well the future workflow with the higher efficiency .
Insight & Approach : There were different factory people who participated in that interaction session . The presence of multiple departments had both positive and negative aspects . The great positivity was , any decision did n’t hang over time for the respective team . All could participate on a current basis . But the down side was , the factory system process was not known to all so some department people just gave a blank look over the idea . The visualization tool worked out on this part effectively . Hence this is a nonverbal way of communication , through the sketch , picture and animation it was practically possible to create an imagination and correlate different parts of the thought process at their brain . So this was the single point of understanding over the assumption . It helped a lot for describing the imaginary prototyping of the product distribution system .
Finally , the majority of the factory department such as engineering , production , supply chain , finance and human resource were aligned to our automatic distribution system and accepted the proposal . This visualization is the only tool that reinforced our team goal in practical terms and made it true . After this successful implementation , for any case where various people do not have a clear idea what will be going to next or lack of full theme process knowledge – we try to keep using this unique visualization tool very much .

Challenge
I work for a software development company which has implemented an agile
methodology for development . Sometimes I am the product owner and I need to communicate to the scrum team which are the goals and objectives of app or piece of software we have to develop for the customer . Most of the times are apps which have two flavors , the customer and the provider side . On every scrum sprint I need to transmit the big picture to the team , the expected outcomes for the users , the calls to action , expectations .
Selection
I have found story telling through user stories to be the best way to transmit to the
team what the customer wants and how the users will use the app , how they will be feeling about it and which needs/ issues the app will solve for them . Specially important is why they need the app .
Application
First is to define the project area creating a positioning statement which should include
who will use the app and the need the app will help to fulfill and how the app is different from other apps . Then the “ personas”are identified and a detailed persona profile is
written . This profile needs to detail the tell story of the individual , who is , what he / she does when facing a situation the app will solve . What he / she thinks , sees , feels , does .
Then some scenarios are created with current alternatives and a value proposition the
app will give .
With this a user story which flows out from the persona is created for the first sprint
and storyboards are created .
And for following sessions child stories derived form this user story are created to
continue the app development .
Insight
With user stories the scrum team identifies the objectives of the project , and they feel
engaged as they understand the needs , and feelings of the persons who will be using the app . It really generates an impact on the team and also the customer . When the customer is invited to the meetings and hear and sees the stories , feel pretty confident the project is in good hands .
Approach
Right now we are only using storyboards to tell the stories . It will be nice to start testing
with some videos where the scrum team will be the actors of the stories . In that way the will internalize in a better way the feelings and needs of the users .

Challenge and Selection
Transmission of knowledge present in the information by teachers does not guarantee an effective understanding of the student in a large class room which has been a great challenge from time to time . Here I used Mind mapping as a technique to educate third year engineering undergraduates in an Engineering Institution . This tool was employed as a part of teaching methodology for Signals and Systems course . Conventional teaching methods involve problem solving on boards as normal chalk and talk method it works only for a small group of students . To address the large class room visual techniques must be used as 65 % of students are visual learners .
Conceptual mapping that I implemented has two major purposes . One is to help students gain and maintain an understanding of the overall conceptual structure of the course and , even more broadly , to see how and where the ideas in this course relate to other aspects of the engineering curriculum .
The point is to help students avoid the sort of tunnel vision that can occur as students work on specific course tasks but never develop a meaningful conception of what the course is about . A second , more focused map is used to help students organize their thinking and understanding of specific technical concepts .
Application
All students had to take part in the following activities :
• Concept analysis : In this , students must analyse the concepts dealt in the class and build a mind map based on their understanding of the topics covered in the class individually in every hour of the class on daily bases .
• Group formation : In this the students in a group of four have discussions on the individual mind maps , gather all the information from different mind maps exchange views and the group must come up with a master mind map comprising of the viewpoints of every individual in a team . Fostering of creativity and ideas is addressed in this activity .
Groups have been formed comprising of four students , they have to co - ordinate , organize and prepare a mind map in a team . Mind map is an interactive approach that forces the students to be attentive in a class as this approach provides much time for students to fit in the topics and make revision not a boring issue . Process of creating a mind map in this activity :
• Begin the Mind Map with a concept at the centre that symbolizes the main topic .
• With an open and creative attitude start with a brain dumping process that will stimulate new ideas and connections .
• Put down all the topics related to the central concept without evaluation and judgment . This will build the mind map having branches and sub branches moving outward the central topic .
• Keywords , symbols and pictures should be used for recording the ideas quickly .
• Topics related to the concept must be connected and organized in a better manner .
A questionnaire survey was conducted to administer the effect of introducing mind map as a part of teaching - learning . The entire class of 69 students was considered for this study . The questionnaire was conducted using 5 Likert scale . Question 1 reflects on the improvement on the memory in recalling , and in response 87 % students agreed that relates to whether the students will use this
learning technique in future for interactive learning . In response students were very interested to use mind mapping technique for group concepts , project idea generation , planning of the project and for preparation of competitive exams .
The questions were as follows :
1 . Mind mapping is an effective tool to recall the technical concepts .
2 . Mind mapping helps me to remember and recollect information better than note - making .
3 . The images , symbols and keywords , found in mind maps , helped me dynamically relate with concepts .
4 . There is clear connectivity and categorization of topics when I mind map .
5 . Mind map helped me to collaborate with peers in the process of active learning .
6 . Mind map enabled me to think on a specific concept in a wide perspective .
7 . There was an increase in the confidence level , when I presented ideas on paper , learnt from mind mapping .
8 . Mind map stimulates visual thinking .
9 . In future ‘ mind mapping ’ can be integrated in all classes as a part of teaching and learning .
10 . Mind map helped me to revise the course at the time of examination / test .
The response of the students is shown below :
Insights and Approach
It was observed that the students were very responsive to the use of mind map in the class . Many students find writing difficult , and they find getting started the most difficult part of writing . Mind mapping reduces the difficulty by giving students an organizing strategy to get them started . In mind mapping , ideas are freely associated and written out without pressure , thereby reducing tension and resistance often associated with writing . Unlike conventional outlining , the product of prewriting activity using mind mapping does not follow a rigid fixed linear . In outlining , ideas must be arranged sequentially which is contradictory with the natural way of how brain works , because brain works in a nonlinear way . The elements of a given mind map are arranged intuitively according to the importance of the concepts , and are classified into groupings , branches , or areas , with the goal of representing semantic or other connections between portions of information . Mind mapping also aids recall of existing memories . Mind mapping may be used effectively with students beyond primary grades and in any class that requires writing . As a matter of fact , mind mapping is not only useful to help students writing a complex composition of a certain type text . It can help with almost any types of texts . It even helps students to draw a grammatical schematic . It also does not merely have to use words and phrases but also pictures , charts , or anything if they representing what students have in mind .
Overall , it is observed that the students who used interactive learning technique that is , mind mapping found it easier to learn and visualize the concepts . As this is a collaborative learning technique the students were motivated to learn the course . Students who were not good in mathematics found it easy after using this technique as they could analyse the connectivity between different concepts . The most prominent positive outcome of the experiment is that over 90 % of the students have clearly indicated that this has given them a very good opportunity to evaluate , work on and improve their ability for interactive learning . This interactive learning approach adopted has great impact in significantly improving the overall teaching learning process , encouraging the faculty and the students to extend the same to the relevant courses in their curricular program .

It also does not merely have to use words and phrases but also pictures , charts , or anything if they representing what students have in mind .
Overall , it is observed that the students who used interactive learning technique that is , mind mapping found it easier to learn and visualize the concepts . As this is a collaborative learning technique the students were motivated to learn the course . Students who were not good in mathematics found it easy after using this technique as they could analyse the connectivity between different concepts . The most prominent positive outcome of the experiment is that over 90 % of the students have clearly indicated that this has given them a very good opportunity to evaluate , work on and improve their ability for interactive learning . This interactive learning approach adopted has great impact in significantly improving the overall teaching learning process , encouraging the faculty and the students to extend the same to the relevant courses in their curricular program .

Challenge :
Visualization tool is not only about images and drawing its all matter about designing and polishing our thoughts into very expressive visuals which is more efficient in design thinking . visualization tool shows a great impact among clients than any other tools .
Approach\selection : When I was watching videos regarding design thinking , this tool admired me and it has shown a huge impact on my thoughts and which made me to think like picturising thoughts in such a way that everyone get to know our intention behind it . I feel that visualizing creates a different impact over words .So this made me to approach towards visualization tool .
Applications :
As Visualization tool plays an effective role in design thinking it has wide range of applications in all fields .Especially it plays a vital role in analysis department in every field , for example in analysing crime rate and comparing we make use of graphs , pie charts etc . In educational sector also it has a great applications like presentations etc . Hence I feel these are some of the applications of Visualization tool .

Challenge
Last year I was working in a company called Hawasa University Technology Incubator , a place where friends , colleagues or family participate in a mystery environment specially developed to sharpen their skills and intelligence , they will be locked up for an hour and they will have to decipher the clues to escape . The franchise is originally from Brazil and this is the first branch in Mexico , and all the collaborators were new and we did not have a good work system , there were no fixed hours , we did not know how to handle correct customer service , the workspaces were not correctly defined among other things .
Selection
Problems began to arise because there was no order and Schedule for each collaborator , there were many partners and each one set their own rules , nobody knew who the should pay attention to and between us we had many difficulties in the first months , it was a new business and we had no information on what we shoul do to improve the work environment . The development of a mind map is a big help to align an organization , since each one of the collaborator have participation and ideas , it could be better to identify and solve the problem .
Application
The partners and collaborators decided to hold a meeting to expose the situations that were affecting our performance at work , thanks to the school I knew several techniques that could help us solve problems and one of those was the application of a mental map in a group , We got a blackboard and with the help of post- its , each of the problems and the most feasible solutions were reflected according to each one 's perspective , the most complicated thing due to so many possible solutions was to reach a mutual agreement , and the question that helps To select the best option among the problems was " what if ? " where the possible scenarios were raised and the one that gave the best result , that was the answer we were looking for . The tool was very useful because each one expressed their disagreements and as it was an activity carried out in a group , it was easier to reach a mutual agreement .
Insight
It is incredible how there are more abstract tools that can help us solve complex problems , one believes that alone can have the solution to a problem and we close ourselves and do not see beyond what others might think , the elaboration of a mental map will help to extract those ideas that do not have a form and can transform them into actions or solutions where all interested parties will be involved .
From my perspective , it was the best tool that we could apply , since all the ideas and contributions of the collaborators were taken into account and the problem was identified to give it a solution , a solution that was developed together and was not the decision of a single person .
Approach
The next time a problem arises , I will not wait so long to act on a problem that can be easily solved using tools provided by the Design Thinking method . And at other times I will need a different tool as it will be the best way to approach the problem and find the solution .
You must always identify the problem and choose the most appropriate method for its resolution , there are many and I am sure that every problem has a solution .

Challenge
The first tool I used was the tool of Mind Mapping , to achieve a shared understanding of a problem space among a diverse group of stakeholders before attempting to identify and define possible solutions to the problem . I use this approach often with our customers , who are people taking studies and works in a national university called Pedro Ruiz Gallo , which may be students , workers and professors . I have used the technique of mind mapping of a problem domain with a set of questions or prompts for discussion to allow a diverse group of stakeholders to learn from each other in the process of defining the scope , boundaries , key elements , and relationships between elements to consider when identifying pain points and opportunities for improvements or solutions .
Selection
Our team has already gone through several design thinking activities / tools , so we are ready to try mind mapping tool . Broadly speaking , the mind mapping tool is a graphic method meant to quickly organize an idea and prototype of solution .
Application
With this tool , we seek to organize all the information within the OGBU offices , through the different office heads we manage to focus the main problems that occur in the work routine of the headquarters . The main difficulty encountered in this non - face - to- face modality is the limited communication that exists between workers , branching this problem towards the management of the organization . We have found a deficit in the use of virtual applications among workers that prevents a good performance of the delegated functions throughout the work cycle .
This is extrapolated in the service provided to students , resulting in deficiencies in the application of their work . By applying this technique we were able to rescue a centered figure of the reality that we investigated .
Insight
We have been able to rescue from the use of this tool , the goal that we wanted to achieve at the beginning , a better and redeemable
way of communicating among OGBU workers , the biggest difficulty was for everyone to realize that the problem existed within the work environment , already that many did not realize this and continued working while their functions worsened when they were applied . Communication improved notably and this methodology was awarded as functional and modifiable over time .
Approach
This approach has been very satisfactory to use with our collaborators , it has served to rescue even other problems within the organization and apply management to find the solution to them . Training was also formulated to support workers to update themselves in the face of this new working environment that is modern for them . I would like to end by recommending this tool for organizations that have independence between their different offices , the functionality it offers is incredible by organizing information in so many ways .

Challenge & Selection I work in medical company , in a pharmacy , and we received some negative feedback from many customers . That was reflected as low NPS ( Net promotor score ) . NPS is a customer loyalty and satisfaction measurement taken from asking customers how likely they are to recommend your product or service to others on a scale of 0 - 10 . So , I used visual thinking tool to understand the problems our customer face to enhance their experience . Application I used visualization tool to gain insight about customers challenges and need . Me and my team started by collecting feedback . We ask 30 customers to write , in sticky note , answers to 2 questions : what they do not like and how to improve our services . After that , the response was categorized and stick in large white board to find a pattern in their responses . We found 2 main domains in customer responses , and we name them personal interactions and environmental issues . For example , in personal interactions , in one of the feedbacks a customer wrote that the pharmacist was speaking so fast that make him upset as he did not understand the instructions well . In Leading people and teams course , Dr. Maxim sytch said that when speaking more than 220 word per min audience become less comprehensive . In environmental issues , a customer said that he struggles parking his car because parking area was small . Insight & Approach This approach helps my team to understand customers view on how excellent service look like . Also , these feedbacks are helpful to improve personal and environmental experiences of our customers . This approach could enhance by collecting more feedback using e - mails or by customer care center .

Challenge
In my organization I am responsible for the development of the “ virtualization ” product portfolio . The major challenge is listening to the customer needs ( through survey , direct interaction etc ) , analysis of the market trends and thereby define business use cases for new product development or feature improvement in the current product lines and approval of the same from the internal stakeholders . As a part of use case definition , the project scope includes proof of concept , prototyping and feasibility study . The objective is to analyse during this process apart from the feature functionality validation is how easy the product usage workflow would be and how seamless it can be integrated in the customer production environment .
Selection
Being part of new product development team , we are continuously using lot of design thinking tools like storey telling ( business case pitching ) , mind mapping ( requirement elicitation process ) and partly the learning launch though experimentation of the concept and simultaneous validation against the customer needs . Next , I am going to share the latest experience in a complex feature addition in an existing product .
Application
The learning launch was being planned to be executed in three phases or sprint cycles of 1 week each . The outcome of each sprint defines the next activity to be taken up .
In the first learning launch we focused on the technical feasibility of the customer requirement . In the process of experimentation , we wanted to explore all the technical assumptions that has been brought out during the requirement elicitation stage . With the prototype in place , the team was quick to validate the assumptions as well as test the feature functionality . All the observations were documented and shared with the stake holders for approval for the next stage .
While the first learning launch was focused on the validation of the assumptions and implementation of the customer requirement , the second learning launch was focused on the integrability of it in the existing product line . This phase of experimentation was important for the team to test our assumptions on the scalability of the existing product architecture to support the new feature and its impact . The experimentation results did throw some pointers on the architectural constraints and the concerned teams were involved for suggestions and clarifications . Once the “ go green ” signal were received for architectural clearance , the third learning launch was started .
In the last learning launch , the focus was on getting feedback on the new workflow of the product . The prototype was shared with few experts and power users for user experience and feedback that would clear the assumptions related to the seamless integration on the customer environment . The feedbacks were documented for the design adaptation by the production team .
Insights
A product if not meeting the customer needs will never be successful how good it might be . The learning launch exercise gave answers to lot of assumptions with which we started the experimentations . More importantly it threw some questions back which needed attention and resolution and thus making the product much more usable .
Approach
For a new product development team , learning launch is an effective tool for a design thinking process . With repeated practice and reviewing the lessons learnt the team can be more efficient designing the learning launches and make it more effective .

The learning launch was being planned to be executed in three phases or sprint cycles of 1 week each . The outcome of each sprint defines the next activity to be taken up .
In the first learning launch we focused on the technical feasibility of the customer requirement . In the process of experimentation , we wanted to explore all the technical assumptions that has been brought out during the requirement elicitation stage . With the prototype in place , the team was quick to validate the assumptions as well as test the feature functionality . All the observations were documented and shared with the stake holders for approval for the next stage .
While the first learning launch was focused on the validation of the assumptions and implementation of the customer requirement , the second learning launch was focused on the integrability of it in the existing product line . This phase of experimentation was important for the team to test our assumptions on the scalability of the existing product architecture to support the new feature and its impact . The experimentation results did throw some pointers on the architectural constraints and the concerned teams were involved for suggestions and clarifications . Once the “ go green ” signal were received for architectural clearance , the third learning launch was started .
In the last learning launch , the focus was on getting feedback on the new workflow of the product . The prototype was shared with few experts and power users for user experience and feedback that would clear the assumptions related to the seamless integration on the customer environment . The feedbacks were documented for the design adaptation by the production team .
Insights
A product if not meeting the customer needs will never be successful how good it might be . The learning launch exercise gave answers to lot of assumptions with which we started the experimentations . More importantly it threw some questions back which needed attention and resolution and thus making the product much more usable .
Approach
For a new product development team , learning launch is an effective tool for a design thinking process . With repeated practice and reviewing the lessons learnt the team can be more efficient designing the learning launches and make it more effective .

I have worked with vulnerable customers , while in automotive service center . Many of these people love their vehicles as their babies . I spend a lot of time “ opening people up ” and finding ways to know their needs to improve our company circumstances . When I work with customers , we share stories for different reasons . Often , they are so happy to share stories of their lives with me to connect and they find meaning in sharing these experiences as a form of teaching and/or legacy , in a sense . With my clients I share stories of other customer ’s life in order to help them visualize a state of happiness and awareness of our services , I use their feedback against the context of our services to ascertain their goals , and sometimes we use stories to better understand their interests and thought processes . I use this information to develop different strategies to try and find a way that works for them to gain more satisfaction in the areas they find lacking in the service of the vehicles . Application I have a story about using storytelling . In discussing policy changes with a automotive service center , I was trying to explain to them the benefits of taking a more client focused approach , among other things , and in particular , of recognizing each person as a unique being , and addressing their individual needs first and foremost . The center was in the grip of a “ compliance culture ” and its clients were failing in this non - empathetic , rigid structure . I was also explaining how sometimes addressing the needs of one individual can impact everyone for the better , even if it seems extreme or out of the ordinary . As when a customer is satisfied with the service , he or she refer your center to others , by mouth - to - mouth mode the marketing strategy starts , which helps our center to acquire more customers . Insight & Approach Well , wow , that was an eye - opener . So , our center adopted the idea and I think it had a big impact on people or customer . The policies are being reevaluated and the workers are going through new training . Sometimes a little story can do a lot of good . This course made me see this as a tool in a new way . When I 've done it before it was really " ad hoc , " but now I can prepare ahead and think of stories that will assist me in presenting my ideas and best illuminate them . I have a customer service background , but I ended up as a student in college to learn more . I had no idea this would ever be considered an asset , but I am so very grateful that it is !

I have chosen to apply the Mind Mapping tool . A mind map can be
used to represent a subject or an idea , structuring the information
in a map - like view . The topic is placed at center of the map ( its
starting point ) and then the concepts and details , are connected in
a logic , hierarchical way . For example :
Example of a mind map showing types of social networks
The example map above quickly informs the us about what the
topic is ( types of social networks ) , what are the categories and sub-
categories ( gaming , photography , … ) and what are some items
within those categories ( the social networks like Facebook ,
Twitter , etc ) .
Application and insights
So after learning about the Mind Mapping tool , I started creating
maps at work and also for my MBA course . My insight was that the
tasks or assignments we execute are usually really repetition of
something already done in the past . However , although they ’re
known , they are also too big or too complex for us to rely only on
our memories . Here ’s where the mind mapping helps a lot .
The two below are some examples where I ’m applying the mind
mapping :
• Starting a new project : using a mind map to organize
the dozens of things that a project manager has to
coordinate has greatly facilitated my work . Every project
basically contains the same items : scope ( what ’s in , what ’s
out ) , timeline ( dates , milestones ) , costs , resources
( people , equipments ) , risks and assumptions .
• Learning a new subject : to me , the hardest part of
learning a new subject , is visualizing how big it is and how
its concepts and details are interconnected . Creating a
mind map had a vast positive impact on my study because
I can , as I read through the pages , create the visual map
representation of the subject .
Final final considerations
As I am seeing the benefits of mind maps for both work and study ,
I definitely plan to continue using the tool . I have identified some
pitfalls , though . Something I learned in these few weeks is that the
map itself can oversimplify an idea , only scratching its surface and
therefore not including important details . You have to learn to find
the right granularity for the information you ’re mapping . And
another potential problem is that , although there are the “ roads ”
connecting your central subject and its concepts and specifics ,
unless you create a narrative , it will be hard to make sense of what
you ’re trying to learn / understand . Create a story in your head that
has a beggining , a development and an ending , so it ’s all
cohesively tied together and engraved in your head .

Challenge and Selection
First of all , I use Mind Mapping as a method to find steps for solving any problems and find the target in my life . I often use this method while doing group project at my campus . In my opinion , this is the best method because I can know what I should do by reading from the line that I have drawn before .
In campus , I join robotic extracurricular at Rajarambapu Institute of Technology . For specific , I am a researcher in the extracurricular . The challenge for me is finding a research topic for being shared to the members of the extracurricular . I use mind mapping method to find what I should do and the target while finding a research topic .
Application
I use this method for finding the best way to solve that problem . First , I draw a box which written “ Research Topic ” . Then , I write two branches in the left and the right box . The left branch is written “ The steps ” and the right branch is written “ The target ” . Not only two branches , but I also added more branches in “ The steps ” and “ The target ” for make the steps and the target become more specific .
When I try to find the research topic , the steps are search my interest and find a journal which is suitable for me . For the target , I hope that I can finish reading the journal within one week .
This method I very effective for me because I can know the way to reach my target effectively . Why did not I use table instead of mind mapping ? Because I think that table is boring , I prefer seeing mind map to the table .
Insight and Approach
To be honest , before joining this course I did not know about the method for organizing the steps to a project . Now , I know the step how to organize the step to finish a project . By using mind map , I can use the branches to see the steps and the target that I want to reach in the future .
I will use this method again for doing another project at campus or my extracurricular .

Challenge
I am a member of the project department of my organization and my / our challenge is to improve the quality of life for truckers who are our customers . The project is following the agile methodology , SCRUM , and I am the scrum master of a team composed of 10 people , 8 of whom are managers from different departments .
The project is limited to internal resources ( that is , the employee 's budget and time ) and employees are not dedicated , with no uniform distribution of working hours among team members . We will focus on trying to discover and build a tool that can improve the quality of life for truck drivers , taking advantage of the strength of our brand in this field and leveraging the number of clients of our company insurance broker .
Selection
Our team has never worked with agile methodology or design thinking before this project , however , we have already been able to apply some tools , such as : CSD matrix , attributes matrix , desk research and interviews . Now , we need to consolidate all the information we have obtained so far and , for that , we will use the mind map and subsequent definition of personas , in order to advance in our delivery of value to the client and sponsors .
Application
Our first challenge was to structure our tasks , schedule and agile people . That done and using some of the design thinking tools in the empathy stage of the project , we moved on to a second moment , which was when we used the mind map to put ourselves in our client 's shoes , based on all the information obtained so far with the surveys , interviews and benchmark . With this tool we were able to consolidate who our target audience is , what they do , what they hear , what they see , what they say , what their pains and needs are and , based on this empathic vision of our client , we follow for the definition of personas , in which 2 personas emerged , Sérgio and Marcelo , both autonomous truck drivers who need to take better care of their health and need something to support them during their travels . This whole empathy process , of the double diamond , lasted 2 months .
Insight & Approach
What I learned by conducting , as a scrum master , this dynamic with the project team using the mind map was that the more organized the information obtained so far in the project and the clearer the objectives of each step of the tool are , the more objective the meeting will be and the more assertive the result will be , with a clear definition of persona . It is also interesting to note that the more multi - disciplinary the team , the greater the chances of discussion , the greater and more different are the perceptions and , consequently , the richer the result obtained . In addition , this tool makes the result very visual , which makes any stakeholder fully understand the results obtained in a short time , which is fantastic !

Challenge & Tool Selection
As a Corporate Communications Consultant for a large retail and services company I was asked by the in - house consulting department to create a successful public relations strategy in order to gain more visibility towards ( young ) professionals . At this point , employer branding was poor , the department struggled to find qualified employees . Conventional human resource activities did not bring the desired success . The idea was to reach potential consultants through sustainable media relations .
First research underlined that this would be a tough project because especially young people tend to hire at large consulting companies instead of in - house consulting departments . Another problem was the industry : In Germany retail is not very popular among graduates . I gained these insights by talking to human resource experts at my company and to members of the consulting branch . The only way to succeed was by telling compelling stories that will draw the reader ’s attention .
I remembered that around two years ago I helped a young consulting start - up to develop a communications plan by using a tool called The Storytelling Tree which combines both creative and strategic components . Originally developed for brand communications I found out that it also works for strategic corporate communications , especially when you start a business from scratch . Let ’s see if things will work out for an in - house consultancy .
The Storytelling Tree is a simple concept , easy to understand but still encompasses all the different levels that are crucial for communications success . Let ’s imagine a tree with its four key elements :
A Trunk
Branches
Leaves
Roots
The tree trunk stands for your company ’s values , mission and your promise to customers . You have to know who you are and what you stand for . Being certain in yourself is the foundation of all communication . Here ’s where authenticity comes into play .
The branches : Once you know who you are and what you stand for , you start developing stories . Starting from who you are and what you offer you create strings of stories and messages . What ’s essential here is that you do n’t just focus on what you want to talk about , but figure out what your target audience wants to hear . Important : Target audiences are not necessarily defined by demographics or gender , but – especially online – should be defined by a common interest .
The leaves : Each branch – each story ( or campaign , as you will ) – then grows itself out into different leaves . The leaves represent the various touchpoints with your target interest group . For some stories that can be the entire array of communications channels from mail to print to Facebook to TV to face to face . For other stories that might mean only your internal communications channels or only your website . The touchpoints matter in regards of the delivery format of your story , but should not dictate the story itself .
Unseen , but the most important part . The roots stand for the internal structures , processes and culture within your organization . You can try all you want , but if your tree does n’t have strong roots that are supporting it in its growth and that grow with it , you ’ll fail .
Application
I scheduled a workshop with five participants from the consulting department , each one with a different background and career level . The only hardware I used was a blank piece of paper in poster size , an Edding and post - its in four different colours . The participants , myself included , introduced themselves , afterwards I described the further process .
We started with the trunk and discussed the department ’s values in a very relaxed atmosphere . At the end of this process we defined five principles such as Family comes first . We honour employees with children and allow them to work wherever they want ( e.g. ) . We wrote every single principle on a post - it and fixed all of them vertically - arranged on the blank poster ( like the shape of a tree trunk ) .
After this , we moved forward to the branches : In this phase you develop concrete stories ( the proverb " Think Big ! " becomes a decisive factor ) . To make it easier for the participants , I asked them : " What kind of story about consultancy would catch your attention ? " It came out that the group had some difficulties in generating stories so I used an alternative approach to that question . I told the group to pronounce concrete headlines ( a simple strategy I learned back in the days I worked for Yellow Press – this is what YP reporters do before they start their research ) . This tactic worked well : The results were nearly 20 headlines that we also wrote on post - its and then positioned like branches around the trunk on the poster .
Next step : the leaves . This part focusses on the touchpoints with the target interest group . In the present case I asked the participants if these were graduates or professionals only . At the end of the conversation we identified additional personas such as internal employees who are seeking for a new career path or tutors at universities ( who often give career advises to their students ) . We made a list of online and print media and events , too , where we could place our stories . We also agreed that we had to create a portrait about our company ’s in - house consultancy on the front page of the corporate website . As before , we wrote down our thoughts on post - its and positioned them like leaves around the corresponding branches .
Finally we discussed the roots . This part turned out to be the easiest one because the whole company just went through a huge cultural change process which aimed to increase responsibility among the workforce . Employees were now allowed to speak individually for the company . We defined spokespersons / protagonists for individual topics and defined a clear quality management process . Finally we draw symbolic roots on the poster and marked each one separately .
At the beginning of the workshop we had a blank piece of paper . Three hours later our communications strategy was complete ! We generated strategic and entertaining stories . Let me give you an example :
Value ( trunk ): " We succeed together , we fail together "
Headline ( branch ): " Ten golden rules that consulting newbies should follow "
Touchpoint ( leave ): Business Newspaper for young people
Protagonist / Speaker ( root ): Junior Consultant from the team
Conclusion & Insights
The process was vivid and productive . It seemed that people who mostly think very strategically welcome little escapes into the world of visual thinking . Diagrams and pie charts are mostly the only graphical elements they are used to . The drawing of a huge symbolic tree forced them to leave habitual thoughts behind them – a tree is a living object , diagrams and pie charts are not . To gain more results the next time I would organize the workshop outside the company ’s walls because spatial distance often leads to more creativity .
With the Storytelling Tree we went through the first two stages of Jeanne Liedtkas Design Thinking process : What is ? and What if ? The next steps would do a small - scale test with a handful of stories and track the results ( What wows ? ) to finally see What works ?

### Input: Peer - graded Assignment : Developing a communication strategy from scratch
Challenge & Tool Selection
As a Corporate Communications Consultant for a large retail and services company I was asked by the in - house consulting department to create a successful public relations strategy in order to gain more visibility towards ( young ) professionals . At this point , employer branding was poor , the department struggled to find qualified employees . Conventional human resource activities did not bring the desired success . The idea was to reach potential consultants through sustainable media relations .
First research underlined that this would be a tough project because especially young people tend to hire at large consulting companies instead of in - house consulting departments . Another problem was the industry : In Germany retail is not very popular among graduates . I gained these insights by talking to human resource experts at my company and to members of the consulting branch . The only way to succeed was by telling compelling stories that will draw the reader ’s attention .

Challenge For some time I frequented a public gym and showered there before my work day . Although the showers may have been cleaned daily , they were not cleaned between each use - sometimes the floor was , well “ icky ” and traditional flip - flops just did n’t cut it . I searched and searched , for an existing product that would provide the protection I needed , without any success . I then realized a need for a solution for increased sanitation when using any facility that has communal showers - gyms , dorms , camps , athletic training facilities , etc . I came up with an idea that would provide antimicrobial protection for the feet while using these facilities ’ showers . The challenge was how best to explain my idea , prove that there was a need , offer a solution , and propose it to potential sponsors for development . I spoke with fellow gym rats , college students , moms of summer campers , professional athletes , etc . to see if they agreed that a product like mine could be helpful . Once I received excited interest in my solution , I set about trying to find a way to make it a reality . My next step was to submit a formal request for a design patent . Then , equipped with a list of businesses from my target market , I would need to find the best way to get my idea out to the potential backers . Selection With limited funds , I had to focus on a method to share a prototype of my antimicrobial shower shoe idea to determine interest , by potential stakeholders , in a product that was only a concept at that point . I thought of using some type of drawing that would depict what it would look like and highlight the benefits , instead of a physical prototype . This is where the Visualization Tool came into play . As Angela Meyer stated in her Visualization video from Module 1 , “When you get to concept development visualization becomes incredibly key . Because concepts are literally coming out of your imagination . And your brain is creating pictures of something that does n't yet exist . It 's creating pictures of something that will soon be . ” She also stated that , “ As we move forward into prototyping , we get much more detailed in the way that we start to visualize . Then we create very complex diagrams , or maps of how we think the customer experience ideally is going to work . ” I needed that complex diagram of something that was n’t yet real .
Application Since I already had a rough “ to - scale ” drawing submitted along with my request for a design patent , I was able to provide enough details of the product idea to a professional that could construct an electronic 3 - D rendering in a video format . This way a link to the video could be shared via email to each business on the list that I gathered for my target market .
The video was built similar to an infomercial with the 3 - D artistic technology making the concept appear real , including a voice - over explaining the benefits of the product while highlighting features of the design . I believed this would be a good way for others to visualize my idea . I emailed this video link to those on my target list and was able to get feedback by receiving callbacks from companies that wanted to discuss the idea further . Insight Using the Visualization Tool was a great advantage to getting my idea in the hands of the right people . It generated the feedback and interest that helped me understand that this could actually work , and helped me to begin developing a product that could be beneficial to so many . At the same time it helped me learn that there would be additional challenges that I would need to work out before this could ever get to market - with regard to companies ’ procedures for investing and taking on new products . I learned that there are many cost , evaluation , and statistical figures that were needed upfront . Approach So , having gathered the insight that there would be much more work needed to get my idea off the ground , I would still use a Visualization Tool to capture the figures that I would need to present . Since these figures would be guesstimates , I would do the legwork and then prepare a presentation document ( e.g. PowerPoint ) with maybe an embedded spreadsheet . Once this is done I could reach back out to those companies that showed interest , or a totally new set of companies and this time be prepared with solid information using the tools that I chose .

Challenge & Section :
In any metro city population is a plus point for various businesses . That ’s true for our Business as well . Basically , we were started as private teachers and then become a founder of private coaching institute .
Main challenge is competition , we are in a city where every road has one or two coaching institutes . Some of them have a specialty in group tuitions , some of them with very less fees , many of them having location advantage , few big pocket players focusing well on marketing etc . In such case how you think to write similar book with different cover and content it ’s a most challenging part .
In that case I thought to select most effective tool of design thinking : Storytelling . This tool helps to keep motivated all stake holders towards on common goal . Which help business to grow and be on base line where the started from .
Applications :
I started using this tool with my business partner only , one day when we were coming home after conducting lecture from institute ( which was owned by someone else and he supposed to pay us ) we found that he is doing miscommunication of monitory terms between us . That was really hurting moment for us . And even he is not sharing total information to students ’ parent as well .
That time I asked my partner why we should not start our own private class institute which will completely transparent in term of monitory side . Aside that I found that parents are worried about their children ’s education and future because lack of emotional touch in classes business . We should go to parents personally and understand that what exactly they are looking out from our service .
Each student is different in terms of interest in studies , subject likings , style of study , family background , what kind of friend and surrounding he or she have . Base on that we must plan the teacher and method of lecture for him or her . This personal touch with care will be uniqueness in market of tutorials . When we were student that time this kind of personal touch , we not experience from our tuition teachers and because of that the image we have for them is completely different . But now all parents want that their children should be treat specially . That is the basic requirement and we are trying to fulfill same .
Now when we both ( me and my partner ) clear with our moto we must share same with our primary stakeholders that is our teaching staff . So designed special training program for teachers which we appoint which is conducted by me and again I am using the story
telling tool to encourage and motivate them to work on common moto . This storytelling really worked well , and many teachers are understanding that they are working on something different than normal teaching .
Insight & Approach :
What I learned from story telling is we can able to connect people emotionally with well told story with real experiences and realistic facts . We should have some data also with your stories which make that story more interesting . Like in our case we use to share the data from research which telling that how care for student and honesty with teacher changes our business graph in span of 1 year .
So now when me or my partner going to meet any of our new parents ( our other stake holder ) we go with our story and with numerical data of past couple of years . After using this story telling tool for cracking new assignment our deal cracking % increased from 54 % to 89 % . Which we can say a great boost .
Now when I leaned this tool gradually , I have started using same in another place as well . One more important thing is that when you use this tool every time you will become more expert from last time . It ’s a continue learning process and continues improvement . Now me and my partner helping to our business friends and relatives to use this tool in their business as well .

Have been working on this problem . Their approach was with the use of a camera , but in that case not all of us hold our mobile phones in vertical position while walking rather mostly we hold it in horizontal position .
That problem in my mind and the technology available in the market i thought of using IR instead . IR would be used just like a radar system and the way will be showed on our screen in a small part like 30- 36 % of our screen would be covered while walking with that radar on .
This is my idea and i would like to tell a stroy about it .
Thank You

### Input: I am a student from India and I have been thinking a lot about the problem of using our mobile phones while walking on the street well its a very common problem and i have also heared that Apple Inc. Have been working on this problem . Their approach was with the use of a camera , but in that case not all of us hold our mobile phones in vertical position while walking rather mostly we hold it in horizontal position .
That problem in my mind and the technology available in the market i thought of using IR instead . IR would be used just like a radar system and the way will be showed on our screen in a small part like 30- 36 % of our screen would be covered while walking with that radar on .
This is my idea and i would like to tell a stroy about it .
Thank You

This was a difficult presentation for my student ’s project . I frequently use different pictures to illustrate my ideas in presentation , however , once I decided to do the animation video . My experience was very successful and tutors praised it high .
I tend to think that the visualization tool suits me more than others in our curse because of my occupation ; I ’m studying on a design program . I consider that people learn information better when it depicted , moreover , currently human beings prefer animated pictures than static that is why I made my presentation with the help of motion design methods .
My experience was very productive not only for people who watch my project but for me too , because I learned a lot of various types of the animation that are able to help me in my future career .
The concept of the information visualization was not new for me but I every time surprised by positive results of such experiments , a little special effect can turn on the whole perception of your work .
To sum up , the visualization tool has a great impact indeed . Next time I want to work with more difficult illustrations methods , maybe with AR tools to impress people more .

Mind Mapping
Writing Centre Learning Guide
Mind mapping is an effective means to take notes and brainstorm essay topics . A mind map involves writing down a central theme and thinking of new and related ideas which radiate out from the centre . By focusing on key ideas written down in your own words and looking for connections between them , you can map knowledge in a way that will help you to better understand and retain information .
What is mind mapping ?
Mind mapping was developed as an effective method for generating ideas by association . In order to create a mind map , you usually start in the middle of the page with the central theme / main idea and from that point you work outward in all directions to create a growing diagram composed of keywords , phrases , concepts , facts and figures . It can be used for assignments and essay writing especially in the initial stages , whereit is an ideal strategy to use for your ‘ thinking ’ . Mind mapping can be used for generating , visualising , organising , note - taking , problem - solving , decision - making , revising and clarifying your university topic , so that you can get started with assessment tasks . Essentially , a mind map is used to ‘ brainstorm ’ a topic and is a great strategy for students . How do I use mind mapping ?
You can use mind mapping for the following :
taking notes in a lecture and listening for the most important points or keywords
showing links and relationships between the main ideas in your subject
brainstorming all the things you already know about an essay question
planning the early stages of an essay by visualising all the aspects of the question
organising your ideas and information by making it accessible on a single page
stimulating creative thinking and creative solutions to problems
reviewing learning in preparation for a test or examination .
How do I get started with mind mapping ?
1 ) Place the central theme / main idea or controlling point in the centre of your page . You may
find it easier to place your page on the side , in landscape orientation , which is easier for drawing purposes .
2 ) Use lines , arrows , speech bubbles , branches and different colours as ways of showing the
connection between the central theme / main idea and your ideas which stem from that focus . The relationships are important , as they may form your essay paragraphs .
3 ) Avoid creating an artistic masterpiece . You should draw quickly without major pauses or
editing . Chances are , your first idea was fine and you placed that idea in the direction or on the branch you thought made the most sense . It is important in the initial stages of mind mapping to consider every possibility , even those you may not use .
4 ) Choose different colours to symbolise different things e.g. you may choose blue for
something you must incorporate in your paper , black for other good ideas , and red for the things you need to research or check with your tutor / lecturer . Your method is entirely up to you , but try to remain consistent so that you can better reflect on your mind map at a later stage .
5 ) Leave some space on your page . The reason for this is that you can continue to add to
your diagram over a period of time . If A4 sized paper feels too small , you may like to use A3 .
What does a mind map look like ?
A standard mind map begins with the following shape :
The following mind map is a basic model with which you can get started on a research topic :
You may prefer to turn your
paper to landscape .
Place your central
theme / main idea in the
centre of the page .
Draw lines , arrows ,
speech bubbles ,
branches , callouts , or any other visuals to show the connection to the central
theme / main idea .
Cluster similar information
together and form sub - branches .

Example : Mind Mapping ‘ Strategies for Climate Change ’ Essay Topic
http://www.greendealsolutions.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/strategies-for-change.jpg [ Accessed : 10 July 2014 ]
How do I turn my mind map into an academic essay ?
Before you can begin to write your essay paper , you must first understand and determine what the ‘ main ’ idea of your writing will be . What is the central theme / main idea or controlling point that you are trying to convey to your reader ? Whatever the topic , it is always a good idea to think about the issues that surround that topic and mind mapping is an excellent form of brainstorming . The information that comprises your paragraphs must have a relationship to that controlling point . The decision about what to include in your paragraphs ultimately begins with your ideas . Ideally , each paragraph in an essay should contain one idea or cover one aspect relevant to the central theme on your mind map .
What are the benefits of using mind mapping ?
To achieve higher levels of concentration and creativity , together with greater organisation and more concise communication , mind mapping might be an effective strategy for you to consider . The benefits of mind mapping are many and varied . In summary they include :
giving you an overview of a large subject / broad topic and allowing you to represent it in a more concise fashion
encouraging you to see the bigger picture and creative pathways
enabling you to plan / make choices about the selection of resource material you have for an assignment and where you are going to place it
providing you with a more attractive and enjoyable format for your eye / brain to look at , muse over and remember .

Challenge
In a discussion with other three partners , the challenge we were facing was coming up with a start up idea for a new laundry company . We had some issues with the actual service provide , which was available for us , and we thought about resolving those issues by creating our own laundry company . We were all using this service , so we had some kind of idea what it was all about , but no technical information what so ever .
Selection
It was clear for us even from the beginning that this was a problem best approached through designing thinking because we needed a deep understanding of the people who were going to use our product , their needs and we also needed to explore new ways of doing things , and maybe find better ways to do it .
Even thought there was a lot of information about how the usual process of laundry was working , there was a lot of uncertainty about how a change in that process would impact the costumer and also the business itself in order for it to be productive . So , the data we already had was very little relevant to what we planned to achieve .
Application and insight
At first , through our discussions , we were very excited about brainstorming and coming up with new ideas , but it was when we started drawing and putting all the information altogether into images that we started actually connect all the ideas we had .
Approach
In addition to visualization , because all design thinking tools are essential to the design thinking process , all other tools could and will be used further as follows :
-Story Telling
-Mind Mapping
-Learning Launch

Challenge and Selection I love storytelling as a tool , first and foremost because I love conveying and providing insight through stories and examples , and I find it to be such an effective way of gaining stakeholder ’s attention and building empathy with a user group and the situations we are designing for . I really connect with what Albert Louis , Chief Learning Officer , at Mars ; is saying in the course session about Storytelling as a tool , that “ Storytelling is the difference between solving a problem and creating a cause . ” Coursera : Design Thinking for Innovation , week 2 , video : “ Storytelling Tool ” .
Application
I particularly remember one incident in which storytelling became a powerful tool for the service I was working on . We were working on creating digital services for farmers to enhance the process of feed ordering . We needed to work with a range of industry specialists in order to build the service around the domain knowledge . In order to be able to quickly put them into the types of situations we were thinking of designing our service around , and to set the stage with the typical customer problems , jobs to be done , and how they currently are experiencing them- storytelling became an extremely efficient tool in onboarding them and get them to think about the subject from their own point of view .
It is also effective in the other way Albert Louis is pointing out , that “ Storytelling says it 's not about the list of things we have to do , it 's about the connection that we give to people about a piece of information that we 're trying to share . A good story at its essence , is simply conveying a message that has logic . ” ( Coursera : Design Thinking for Innovation , week 2 , video : “ Storytelling Tool ” ) .
Insight
We found that through using storytelling in our initial meetings and project description , we were able to quickly onboard stakeholders , team members and other interest into our vision , get them on our side , and motivated to contribute with their own views and ideas .
Approach
I would think about expanding the use of storytelling , finding more ways of using storytelling as a tool for onboarding and creating empathy with the user groups and personas we are working with , and support our main narratives with extended content , such as video , photos , illustrations and storymaps- to use storytelling as a tool for several purposes- in demos , onboarding , project presentations and so on .

In order to be able to quickly put them into the types of situations we were thinking of designing our service around , and to set the stage with the typical customer problems , jobs to be done , and how they currently are experiencing them- storytelling became an extremely efficient tool in onboarding them and get them to think about the subject from their own point of view .
It is also effective in the other way Albert Louis is pointing out , that “ Storytelling says it 's not about the list of things we have to do , it 's about the connection that we give to people about a piece of information that we 're trying to share . A good story at its essence , is simply conveying a message that has logic . ” ( Coursera : Design Thinking for Innovation , week 2 , video : “ Storytelling Tool ” ) .
Insight
We found that through using storytelling in our initial meetings and project description , we were able to quickly onboard stakeholders , team members and other interest into our vision , get them on our side , and motivated to contribute with their own views and ideas .
Approach
I would think about expanding the use of storytelling , finding more ways of using storytelling as a tool for onboarding and creating empathy with the user groups and personas we are working with , and support our main narratives with extended content , such as video , photos , illustrations and storymaps- to use storytelling as a tool for several purposes- in demos , onboarding , project presentations and so on .

It was a new challenge that required testing of untried . We wanted to identify the changing needs of our customers and design our campaigns to go beyond conventional methods . As a result we decided to initiate an online gaming campaign including different stakeholders from the company . We wanted not only to adopt our campaigns to the new situation but also to gather everybody on the same page . Selection : Our intention was to use a tool which could enable us to draw the whole picture and build relationships between entities in the flow of our campaign . We know that one of the comprehensive tools to identify the needs of our customers in the new normal is visualization . Moreover , we needed our stakeholders from various disciplines to better understand each other . So , we decided to use visualization as our base of understanding and collaboration . Application : Our team used different visual items to draw a flow of a new campaign ; a picture of a gamer , connectivity components like mobile and fixed line connections and relationship images such as arrows etc . We visualized our intent by combining the items and creating a flow diagram . It was just an initial point for our purpose . Then , we invited the other parties to complete the picture . They added new items to our visual inventory and completed the missing parts by drawing additional components and flows . Parties from the digital communication department drew digital media tools and gaming accessories such as controls , bluetooth headphones that are used on online World , customer experience experts drew relationships between processes of the customer journey . As a result , different parties worked on the same page , they saw the different components of the project as a whole and they contributed to the overall picture . Insight & Approach : This visualization helped us to reveal implicit information from different stakeholders enabling us to draw a complete picture without a lost in translation . It suprassed the fact that some of the insights may not be spoken in verbal communication . By visualization we minimized the risk of missing parts . It was just like a system analysis&design methodology visualizing entities and relationsihps to constitute a process . It enabled every party to better understand the situation and collaborate in an effective way by eliminating the differences related to culture and personal background . We identified what our target segment , gamers in our case , needs to use and how they react to different situations while playing . Understanding the visual images of their neeeds enabled us to discover their motivations . Thus , not only we designed the overall process and created a digital service&campaign but also we were able to identify the needs of our sub segment and agree upon the reward mechanism which is also directly linked to the success of our project . For the next time , we would keep our visual inventory more simple and limited so that different parties could contribute more and draw the processes as they want . Visual inventory helped us to save time but on the other hand it increased the risk of limiting the imagination . Different stakeholders should feel free to create their own work .
To sum up , it is important to evoke vocabulary and literal meaning laterilized to the left hemisphere and imagination with creativty laterilized to the right hemisphere of the brain . As we all discovered , multi disciplinary approaches make the best contribution to the success and visualization supported us in this manner .

Challenge
I am a teacher in K11 Art Mall ( South America ) of courses on social sciences in the career of Computer Technologist . Due to the pandemic of Covid-19 , all of the courses are being taught online since march and by the month of august , second semester of the year , the students are tired , distracted , overwhelmed with the demands of the courses they attend and the assessments they have to pass and so it ’s very hard for me to get them properly involved in my classes . The group I have now has 15 students , all male in the ages of 19 to 21 years old .
Selection
Considering the challenge I face , my hypothesis is that they not only need access to the topics but also a space where they can express the challenges they face in their careers , feel motivated and confident in order to better absorb and experience the different subjects ( that are related to what they are experiencing : motivation , leadership , team work , conflict solving , etc ) . So I decided to redesign my lessons ’ plan to incorporate that hypothesis . I already interviewed the students , exchanged with other colleagues , generated lots of ideas thorough brainstorming and came up with different variations of the plan . Now I ’m ready to use the learning launch tool with my students .
Application
This technique will help me to test fast and recalibrate the option that I think it ’s the most suitable for the situation , although I ’m keeping the others in case I need to grab them to be tested as well . Next class I ’ll be presenting my students with the new structure that considers increasing their involvement using polls and games and a “ group therapy session ” , as well as simplifying the theory of the course through videos and podcasts they can use to put together the topics and then implement them in the Wiki they are developing for the course . This first class I ’ll be observing and registering their reactions to the different activities proposed in order to make the necessary changes to meet their needs .
Insight
I believe this tool will help me , not only to test my hypothesis but also to try the different ideas that I came up during the process , in order to quickly identify the most effective ones and implement them in the plan for the rest of the semester . Also , due to the dynamic of my classes , I can use this technique to try new ideas that can come up because of the quick feedback with the students . Finally , I think that this activity for itself will provide the students with new experiences and involve them in the process of the development of a plan that serves their learning outcomes .
Approach
Considering what I mentioned previously , this tool is appropriate to test my ideas and hypothesis , as well as rethinking the solutions and activities prioritizing the ones that are most suitable for the situation . The students will be the centre of this innovation and the fact that I have access to them every week will allow me to get constant feedback and do as many iterations of this tool as needed to come up with the best innovative answer for the situation .

Challenge
Re - imagine Library Entranceway .
The entranceway in question has become a dumping ground for litter and frequent loitering , not only blocking traffic flow but also appearing unkempt & unprofessional . The entranceway is frequented daily by a diverse cross - section of stakeholders ranging from staff , students , visitors and guests . It was decided by management a solution had to be found in somehow re - imagining the space .
Selection
I chose the Visualization Tool as it provides clarity in depicting the current problem . It also enables stakeholders to capture , express and communicate inherent perceptions and other potential options during the Exploration process . By visually expressing thoughts & ideas , clarity to seemingly abstract concepts can become made readily accessible and understandable to both individuals and the group . ( Ref : Module 1 - Angela Meyer : Visualization video )
Application
Over a three - day period , comprising of a 30 minute session per day , 7 stakeholders across various age groups , roles and responsibilities were selected . 3 staff members , 2 of which who work in the library building adjoining the entranceway , 1 from Library Management along with an additional 4 members of the student community participated in the design thinking process .
Session 1 Situated in a relatively small Meeting Room , members of the student community met on the first day to partake in a casual interview . Due to time restraints the session was divided into three sections . For the first 10 minutes participants were given an introduction where they were shown photographs of the entranceway in its current state along with a set of questions on paper aimed at getting them to consider the problem . Blank sheets of paper , sticky notes , pens and coloured pencils were provided . The following questions were
asked : 1 What were your first impressions of the entranceway ? 2 Write down any likes / dislikes you have regarding the entranceway . 3 How do you feel the entranceway could be improved or changed ? Participants were then left to their own devices expressing their views . This 10 minute window mainly focused on the first two questions based around the “ What is ” and “ What if ” stage of the design thinking process . The final 10 minutes centred on the third question allowing the “ What if ” aspect of the problem be examined . At the end of the session feedback was gathered .
The following day , Session 2 involved two staff members who were given the equivalent format , a brief introduction , same set of questions divided into three 10 - minute segments . They expressed their thoughts via materials provided followed by general discussion . This session provided a staff perspective of the “ What is , What if ” side of the problem revealing both similar and extremely different viewpoints .
On the final day , Session 3 , the last official session , data gathered was displayed on a whiteboard including photographs of the existing entranceway , sticky notes and loose - leaf paper gathered from previous sessions . Unfortunately , only 3 members of the initial 4 student body could attend along with the 2 staff members . The data itself mainly comprised of hand - written notes but there were a few rudimentary sketches in the mix depicting new insights .
Having representatives from both student & staff bodies provided an interesting mix of perspectives . Both parties verbally highlighted their views reinstating what had already been visually expressed and this sparked some new considerations based upon concerns and ideas displayed . There was some healthy disagreement which led to not so much totally abandoning , but moving to one side particular suggestions deemed too difficult or impractical to implement at this moment in time . For example , significant structural changes and costly additional hardware be installed . However , some mutual insights became clearly apparent especially in relation to the “ What is ” stage in the process . All agreed the entranceway was an eyesore and in desperate need of change . “ Dull ” “ drab ” & “ boring ” were some of the commonalities described . While different opinions abounded functionality of the space also met some mutual understanding . In the final 10 minutes , participants also had
the option of re - imagining the space using visualization as a means of expression . This allowed all participants to examine the “ What if ” and touch on the “ What wows ” via an assortment of interiors featuring various educational institutions , public libraries and retailers displayed for inspiration . Ideas which met general consensus remained centred on the board with other possibilities placed nearby . Unfortunately , due to time restraints this concluded our sessions . Taking collected data from the final session I then made a graphic featuring shared feedback plus new insights branching off from the main problem then presented it to management for further exploration .
Insight
Insight gathered during this process revealed how valuable visualization can be in igniting healthy debate surrounding a problem , harnessing a better understanding across diverse viewpoints and perspectives , but most importantly , working collectively and for a common good in tackling a problem . Information surrounding more ambiguous details also became apparent . For example : how “ heavy ” the door felt to open , the shape of the handle itself , even concerns regarding tiny scuff marks on the wall , seemingly oblivious to most , were expressed along with numerous customer - centric suggestions such as providing useful resources , scenting the space via a diffuser and perhaps play low - level , soothing music , aspects of the initial challenge that could have easily been over - looked if design thinking had not been implemented .
Approach
Upon reflection I would choose the Co - creation tool . ( Ref : Module 1 - The Good Kitchen video ) Reasons for this include conducting additional workshops over an increased period ( 1 - 2 weeks ) including a broader cross - section of stakeholders ; visitors and guests , providing a larger co - creation landscape to address the problem , increase potential for honest , open debate , thus nurture new ideas , more specifically , exploring the “ What wows and What works ” aspects of design thinking . Improved measurements in the administering and collection of data would be implemented ( Ref : Module 3 – The Idea Generation Process video ) including a well - structured Design Brief & Research
Plan in order to obtain more accurate results . I would also like to suggest management be more involved in the overall process from start to finish .

Challenge and Selection
Storytelling has always been my go - to for talking to people or maybe
bunch of people not only because it is a great tool but because when you try and make a relationship with anyone the first thing the opposite person / group expects is the loyalty and when you connect with them through your original story , they ’ll some sort of a connection to say . I try to spend sometime everyday to talk to someone ( friend ) at my institute when they seem low . It is my nature that does n’t let me see anyone feeling bad , I feel bad too . Might be an emotional attachment I guess , but it helps .
Application
The thing about storytelling is that , you narrate a story you know , you own from your experiences . Once I was watching this guy called Zakir Khan on YouTube , and with every line that was coming out of his mind , I was getting awestruck because I felt like the person is actually talking my life , though he ’s a Stand - up comedian but to do so , you also got to be a storyteller . He would generally talk about things happening around his house , like the Aunties Chatting , boys playing and so many other things which I can relate to .
Insight and Approach
Storytelling is the best tool I ’ve ever known , I was always fascinated by
the fact that how one can make an impact on the world but it does right from the speech of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr to Hitler ( even though he has haters ) it was nothing but the art of storytelling that made them who they were and the kind of impact they had on their people . When I generally approach someone not so good in their mental health , I use this tool but after this course I learnt a few more things to add to my kit .
A simple suggestion , if you ever want to have a deeper bond with anyone around storytelling is the way .
As of now , the problems related to mental health are increasing rapidly and the thing that people feel lonely even if they have so many people around is so bad . So , my humble request is to look after your friends , families and also someone who might struggling due to mental health .
The course was beautifully designed , thanks to Stefania Leonetti .

Might be an emotional attachment I guess , but it helps .
Application
The thing about storytelling is that , you narrate a story you know , you own from your experiences . Once I was watching this guy called Zakir Khan on YouTube , and with every line that was coming out of his mind , I was getting awestruck because I felt like the person is actually talking my life , though he ’s a Stand - up comedian but to do so , you also got to be a storyteller . He would generally talk about things happening around his house , like the Aunties Chatting , boys playing and so many other things which I can relate to .
Insight and Approach
Storytelling is the best tool I ’ve ever known , I was always fascinated by
the fact that how one can make an impact on the world but it does right from the speech of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr to Hitler ( even though he has haters ) it was nothing but the art of storytelling that made them who they were and the kind of impact they had on their people . When I generally approach someone not so good in their mental health , I use this tool but after this course I learnt a few more things to add to my kit .
A simple suggestion , if you ever want to have a deeper bond with anyone around storytelling is the way .
As of now , the problems related to mental health are increasing rapidly and the thing that people feel lonely even if they have so many people around is so bad . So , my humble request is to look after your friends , families and also someone who might struggling due to mental health .
The course was beautifully designed , thanks to Stefania Leonetti .

Finding a common ground thanks to visualization
Challenge
The company I work for provides strategic consultancy to companies that wish to improve and innovate their processes and , in some cases , their business models . One of our clients was facing a series of problems in handling customer care requests : since they had also activated an ecommerce activity alongside their traditional physical shop , they were unable to handle service requests in a sustainable timeframe and in a unified manner . They wanted to understand the bottlenecks in the process and how to overcome them .
Selection
After having some preliminary conversations with the main stakeholders of the business process ( After Sales & Customer Care team , Shop Manager , Business Process & Operations , IT team ) , my colleagues and I realised that the scope of the problem was not very clear to them in terms of precise identification of both touchpoints with customers and responsible internal actors . Under those circumstances , we opted for some sessions of visualizations with all of them to set the problem together .
In fact , visualization could allow to find a common ground for all people involved : before identifying and then taking any steps to solve the problem , we needed to make sure that all stakeholders were on the same page . This meant that everyone needed to have the same level of understanding of the context and of the issues linked to the situation . A necessary step to successfully come to a shared and effective solution .
Moreover , as a side effect of visualization , we could provide them with a creative way of capturing how their business had been changing over a very short time : visualizing what changed in practice would have helped them to more easily identify if and where further improvements were needed .
Application
We scheduled three sessions to apply the visualization tool . Goal of the three sessions was to reply together to the first question of design thinking , What is ? , with specific reference to the context of our client ’s business : what is the real situation of our customer relations since we decided to expand our business and partially transform it digitally ? To achieve this final goal , for any session , we proposed to take a different perspective :
1 . Customer - perspective : what has changed for our customers , starting from the complaints we have
been were receiving lately ?
2 . Operation - perspective : what has changed for my team and me in our day - to - day ? 3 . Put it all together in the bigger business perspective : how our business has changed ?
Each session was conceived as an active workshop in which participants had 15 minutes to exercise their creative power and express the given perspective . We provided them with sheets of paper , markers , crayons , magazines to cut out , scattered images , post - it notes . At the end of 15 minutes , each of them hung their work on the wall and had a few minutes to look at the others ' . Afterwards , they identified together the elements in common and the elements of diversity that resulted from the works . Then , on a large blackboard , in the final part of the session , everything was put together into a single representation , taking in what had been identified as relevant and listening to the proposals that were made in lively discussion . Each session lasted approximately one hour and 15 minutes .
The results of the first session , focused on the customer perspective , fuelled the starting part of the second workshop on the operation perspective : the objective was to include in the representation of the changes occurred in the daily operations also significant moments of the customer experience . Both results were then put together in the final workshop where a big visual representation captured what the company was going through with regard to customer care management .
Insight & Approach
The three sessions were helpful to set the problem in a way that not only mirrored the real situation from the perspectives of the various stakeholders involved , but also shed light on a more general need for process systematisation , starting from a better definition of new roles and responsibilities . What visually resulted was :
1 . Confusion on the customer experience side .
The customer was not experiencing the brand in a unified manner , having somehow to deal with the physical entity and the new , digital one . Corollary to this was not only having diversified channels to advance customer care requests , but also receiving very different replies to inquiries .
2 . Internal misalignment on business objectives .
Internal people were experiencing confusion too , not being aligned on the changing business vision and mission . This implied unclear objectives and even more unclear responsibilities in their day - to- day .
3 . Creative moment .
Despite confusion that resulted in a far from perfect customer care experience , the final picture that was drawn building on the contribution of all internal stakeholders , showed clearly all the potential of the company .
These insights confirmed the correctness of our initial intuition : people were not really on the same page . This was because the company was going through a very exciting time of profound change , but also a hectic one , and people lacked time to reflect on it , assimilate it and adapt their daily activities .
The approach adopted allowed some internal criticalities , mostly concerning people and processes , to emerge and to find a common ground where solutions could be identified and implemented in a following moment . However , the perspective of the customers was reconstructed only from the complaints they had and from asking people to put themselves in their shoes : customers were not directly involved . This would have required more time and budget than what we had for this project , the core of which remained in any case to improve organization processes . Next time , we will propose to extend the visualization activity to selected customers to get a first - hand view of their experience .

The current challenge for the design research community is to provide designers with a wider range of methods and tools to support specific activities within the design process and to improve its overall coordination .
It is uncertain whether problem - solving alone can be the tool for developing even simple products or services , as we are less open to the variety of opportunities that arise in the process . When approaching a problem , the cognitive mindset demanded to solve the problem , differs from that required when searching for opportunities in creating something completely new . This emphasizes the importance of design thinking , using tools and methods for conducting Human Centered Design ( HCD ) , empathy , and intuition , along with the use of visualization .
By focusing on the creative process and the use of sketches and models , this research will explore the possibility to develop tools and methods for conducting New Product Development ( NPD ) projects in a more efficient way .
This research presents a prescriptive model for visualization in NPD projects . This model is a result of clarifying the research problem , understanding the factors that affect visualization and the need for development of support . The model works as a supportive tool for project teams and guidelines for management .
Economic growth and future jobs are dependent on how individuals within organizations are able to generate ideas and develop them into competitive and sustainable products and services . Today ’s globalized market has resulted in a business environment where change and uncertainty challenges industry . The idea that low cost and quality focus is sufficient for a competitive market position has disappeared . For example , environmental challenges and constant innovation are becoming increasingly important and must be integrated into the development of new products and services , as well as into the organizations and processes , to achieve those results . These facts make the entire product realization process of today more complex than ever . In organizations that today struggle to compete in the global market , there is a need to find and develop new ways to achieve economic growth and new market shares . Organizations working on qualified , complex , products or qualified unique manufacturing methods today have the necessary order qualifiers for competition . One way to become competitive is by implementing new and improved concepts , methods and models that will support and strengthen the innovation and product realization processes , as well as the organizations and people pursuing these paths ( Jackson , 2009 ) . Combining this with a holistic view of the entire innovation process , which includes the product realization process , is a way to strengthen the performance in presenting new products or services on the market . In this project , this means focusing and integrating the areas of creativity , design , design thinking , design methods and design research , in a broad sense , into the innovation and product realization processes .
In the knowledge - based global economy of today , even the nature of innovation is changing ( Lengrand , 2002 ) . We can see a change towards a more ´ open innovation strategy ´ , where suppliers , customers , endusers , universities and other external resources and networks are much more involved in organizations ’ innovation processes ( Chesbrough , 2003 , 2009 ) . Most organizations have well - developed strategies for quality and production management systems , for example . But few have developed clear strategies concerning innovation processes and management from an integrated technological , organizational and market perspective ( Tidd & Bessant , 2009 ) . The development and design of new products and services within product development and engineering design originated from and is often based on problem - solving ( Pahl and Beitz , 2007 ) . Research within the area has its origins in systems theory and the design science paradigm influenced by
Hubka & Eder ( 1988 , 1996 ) , for example . The ultimate goal is to quickly present an economically- produced product to the market . For most producers , this is done by working through a chain of decisions : first establishing clear objectives for the product , then identifying the target market segment and , finally , trying to systematically determine the customers desires or needs . Structured design methods have been developed in engineering design by Ulrich & Eppinger ( 2003 ) and Pahl & Beitz ( 2007 ) , among others . For the development of integrated and complex products , it is often not enough with the engineering and subject - specific development processes based on problem - solving . It is uncertain whether problem - solving alone can be the tool for developing even simple products or services as we are less open to the variety of opportunities that arise in the process . When approaching a problem , the cognitive mindset demanded to solve the problem differs from that required when searching for opportunities in creating something completely new .
Design , design thinking , design methods and tools are resources that should be better utilized and could be better integrated in future management strategies ( Utterback et.al , 2006 ; Brown , 2009 ; Verganti , 2009 ) . This emphasizes the importance of design thinking and methods in realizing new innovative products and services . For example , visual and spatial communication is central in design and development work . Sketches and models are important tools that can facilitate and support the development work during product realization . All kinds of visual representations are exceptional since they show appearance of objects . Language does not . A sketch can serve as a common reference for the team . However , to be able to communicate via a sketch , the use of verbal communication is essential . Sketch - based design processes can eliminate communication problems as long as the team members involved during the communication are the same . On the contrary , in handover situations , new team members will interpret the sketches differently because of a variation in pre - understanding . This is because pictures are arbitrary and can be interpreted in different ways ; therefore , it is necessary to combine the sketches with verbal information ( Kress & van Leeuwen , 1996 , 2001 ; Eriksson & Göthlund , 2004 ; Eriksson , 2009 ) .

Challenge
I work as a Technical Consultant in my organization ’s Digital Identity & Security Global Business Unit . As part of the Technical consultant ’s team , we are responsible of the design , implementation , validation and delivery of the technical products requested by our customers . I and my workmates must ensure the products delivered to our customers fulfill all the technical requirements according to their needs and the reference standard specifications , but also we need to assure they are delivered in the less time possible . Quality , compliance and time delivery are critical in a market that has been exploited by many other providers in the last years . In the whole product deployment time line , product validation is one of the most time consuming tasks , most of my workmates think there are no enough tools to ease product validations , thus , this reflection focuses on the meetings done by the team to find out solutions that will help decrease product delivery time .
Selection
Recently , our organization proposed us two sessions to find out a solution for the time variable concern in the product validation . The first step was to identify the real problem and the scope of the solution to be proposed . Co - creation was used to find out an objective view of the problem , we wanted people to do give their own perspective of the problem to identify patterns and themes . To ease the pattern observation we used the Mind Mapping tool using sticky notes and a board . With this tool we were able to identify the What is in this context and then start looking for solutions based on common criteria for all the team members .
Application
For our first session , we focused in the two first Design Thinking questions , What is and What if . In the beginning of the session , we did short interviews to all of the team members , finding out that the main factor that increases time variable in product validation is always the lack of tools that allows the execution of all the tests . To understand the type of tool we were expecting to have , we applied the Mind Mapping tool using some sticky notes and a board to allow all the team members expose their vision of a tool that will ease the work and thus , the production delivery time to customers . We divided the board in three sections , one to put notes with facts that increase validation time ( e.g. , complexity to understand and use the tool ) , the second one to write our thoughts about product validation process ( e.g. , ensure
quality ) and finally one to write ideas about what we expect a tool to have ( e.g. , a graphical interface and test reports ) . After this , we observed and found common comments between the team notes , we associate them and we questioned them . At the end we found an objective idea of the tool we wanted and the tedious tasks for the team . This helped us exploring solutions for our problem .
For our second session , we worked in the third question of the process , What wows . We took all the ideas gathered in the first session . We found the required tool should ensure the quality of the product is still the best according to the technical standards and that many of the existing validation tools can be re - used to develop the one we expected . We did some sketches of Graphical User Interface ( GUI ) as a prototype and wrote a list with all the requirement of the tool we expect .
The last step related to What works is in process since all our ideas where sent to our organizations development team to determine the viability of developing a tool that fits all our requirements and then create a prototype of it to know if it really works or not . It is really important to have always in mind that the efforts spend in the tool development should be minor to ensure it is cheap and quick to get out if our ideas do n’t work .
Insight
I think that the Mind Mapping tool eased the problem definition and the solution proposal since it was helpful to gather all the member thoughts and then propose a solution that in the beginning was not conceived by any of them . During both sessions , I found the expertise of each member is different , thus , each individual is able to contribute with different ideas . The sessions helped us to understand the problem we have in a deeper level . We found that for many years , our developing teams have been doing tools to solve single validations but without a global purpose , so at this moment we have different tools ( some of them we do n’t even know yet because of the huge amount of single validation tools that they had been developed ) that somehow can be used to develop a single tool that fulfills all our needs . Having everything in on single tool decreases time spend in validation considerably and also complexity . Co- working is important to overcome problems and to come up with new and creative ideas . With design thinking we found our problem was not about just having a tool that executes everything at once , but we found that if the Technical Consultants feel comfortable , the way they face product validations and the attitude they have will executing tests is really important too for the time variable .
Approach
Product validation is a task done day by day by each of the Technical Consultants team members , so each of them has something to say about the way the feel and which improvements should be applied for this process , thus , the Mind Mapping tool was the appropriate tool to reach an objective solution for the problem . For future sessions it would be better if the tool developers are involved too so we have a multi- disciplinary session were they will give their appreciation of the new ideas proposed and somehow give the solution more structure according to the viability of the ideas proposed , this will allow the whole Design Thinking steps execution to know final results .

In the whole product deployment time line , product validation is one of the most time consuming tasks , most of my workmates think there are no enough tools to ease product validations , thus , this reflection focuses on the meetings done by the team to find out solutions that will help decrease product delivery time .
Selection
Recently , our organization proposed us two sessions to find out a solution for the time variable concern in the product validation . The first step was to identify the real problem and the scope of the solution to be proposed . Co - creation was used to find out an objective view of the problem , we wanted people to do give their own perspective of the problem to identify patterns and themes . To ease the pattern observation we used the Mind Mapping tool using sticky notes and a board . With this tool we were able to identify the What is in this context and then start looking for solutions based on common criteria for all the team members .
Application
For our first session , we focused in the two first Design Thinking questions , What is and What if . In the beginning of the session , we did short interviews to all of the team members , finding out that the main factor that increases time variable in product validation is always the lack of tools that allows the execution of all the tests . To understand the type of tool we were expecting to have , we applied the Mind Mapping tool using some sticky notes and a board to allow all the team members expose their vision of a tool that will ease the work and thus , the production delivery time to customers . We divided the board in three sections , one to put notes with facts that increase validation time ( e.g. , complexity to understand and use the tool ) , the second one to write our thoughts about product validation process ( e.g. , ensure
quality ) and finally one to write ideas about what we expect a tool to have ( e.g. , a graphical interface and test reports ) . After this , we observed and found common comments between the team notes , we associate them and we questioned them . At the end we found an objective idea of the tool we wanted and the tedious tasks for the team . This helped us exploring solutions for our problem .
For our second session , we worked in the third question of the process , What wows . We took all the ideas gathered in the first session . We found the required tool should ensure the quality of the product is still the best according to the technical standards and that many of the existing validation tools can be re - used to develop the one we expected . We did some sketches of Graphical User Interface ( GUI ) as a prototype and wrote a list with all the requirement of the tool we expect .
The last step related to What works is in process since all our ideas where sent to our organizations development team to determine the viability of developing a tool that fits all our requirements and then create a prototype of it to know if it really works or not . It is really important to have always in mind that the efforts spend in the tool development should be minor to ensure it is cheap and quick to get out if our ideas do n’t work .
Insight
I think that the Mind Mapping tool eased the problem definition and the solution proposal since it was helpful to gather all the member thoughts and then propose a solution that in the beginning was not conceived by any of them . During both sessions , I found the expertise of each member is different , thus , each individual is able to contribute with different ideas . The sessions helped us to understand the problem we have in a deeper level . We found that for many years , our developing teams have been doing tools to solve single validations but without a global purpose , so at this moment we have different tools ( some of them we do n’t even know yet because of the huge amount of single validation tools that they had been developed ) that somehow can be used to develop a single tool that fulfills all our needs . Having everything in on single tool decreases time spend in validation considerably and also complexity . Co- working is important to overcome problems and to come up with new and creative ideas . With design thinking we found our problem was not about just having a tool that executes everything at once , but we found that if the Technical Consultants feel comfortable , the way they face product validations and the attitude they have will executing tests is really important too for the time variable .
Approach
Product validation is a task done day by day by each of the Technical Consultants team members , so each of them has something to say about the way the feel and which improvements should be applied for this process , thus , the Mind Mapping tool was the appropriate tool to reach an objective solution for the problem . For future sessions it would be better if the tool developers are involved too so we have a multi- disciplinary session were they will give their appreciation of the new ideas proposed and somehow give the solution more structure according to the viability of the ideas proposed , this will allow the whole Design Thinking steps execution to know final results .

Electrical Distribution Company
This case in which I have witnessed the use of design thinking , although I was not directly involved in the process .
Challenge :
A Marketing Company was owned by an emergent Electrical Distribution Company , the company assigned marketing managers to lift up the sales of the forth factory on a specific project “ Smart Home Utilities ” , The problem was that by creating new campaigns , they found out that it had already been used before ( on discounts , maintenance offers and contracts expansions ) , and still the linear drop of sales continuous . It was almost a dead cause and felt trapped by the upper management to do their jobs .
Selection :
The Unclear problem identification ( is it the Product ? Market ? Competitors dominance ? ) led up to brainstorming many possibilities and solutions mapped with the greater goal - Sales Acceleration . In the short amount of time that was assigned to this project there was only Facts and User Centred Guesses ( User needs focused and NOT Product / User Opinions on a product ) . No Market / Product Research Conducted .
Application :
In Shorts and simplified view , there was some products in stock for sensing presence and lighting up , max stock and lack of sales . Upon contacting several previous buyers , The feedback on the product was over the top and there was no issues on that matter , however the need for this feature is limited . Lack of demand due to its restricted features . So the Managers / Teams Came up with directing the issue to address the users needs , Adding the [ CUSTOMIZED ] . Which involved also creating packages of different products for different types of landscapes . Example : Customized features that combine both voice and motion sensors .
Insight :
The solution was clear , marketing focused and simple , however it changed the whole organizational strategy and Resource allocation , the need for more skilled employers and factory maintenance fees , however this jump reached double of the ROI for this specific startup company . With focusing on allocating the resources with user needs .
Approach :
I would say that it might have been easier and less stressful to follow other competitors ' strategy as a start up company than going through all the steps of design thinking and innovation at this early stage . Customization is a must within this field for the least . Nevertheless it was a brilliant solution that the marketing team did build their successful campaign based upon . Although having no previous experience in the field and the short amount of time for problem solving . And emptying some of their stocks with package solutions at the same time .

Challenge : I was a research member of a research project in my organization with the
objective to understand and identify the main end user requirements of battery - operated
tools for indoor wireline applications inside commercial and residential buildings . The
research objective was to understand the user requirements of these battery operated
tools to improve their usage and design and how to boost their sales . The project was
focused on understanding some of the key specific needs of end users towards the merit
of using battery operated tools over manual tools from a product standpoint . The project
product scope includes battery powered crimping and cutting tools focused on 1 - 6 tons
tools During 3 months , we focused on testing our assumptions across the entire value
chain of the industry having a number of strategic conversations and primary research
with all stakeholders including end users , leading original equipment manufacturers ,
distributors , sales representatives and contractors associations .
Selection : The research team has implemented several design thinking tools . However ,
we particularly focused on the learning launch tool with the objective to learn from
stakeholders and principally to test in the real industry and inexpensively our key
assumptions developed during the prototyping stage . The main reason of selecting this
tool was to test , receive feedback from stakeholders and learn before having a direct
product roll out .
Application : For our learning launch , we focused on setting clear limits in our research
such as 3 months project , geography coverage including Eastern Region , Pacific Region ,
Central region and Mountain region and 35 interviews with key stakeholders . We
focused on conducting small tests with 5 representatives of original equipment
manufacturers , 5 sales representatives , 20 end users and 5 contract associations . Primary
research included several C level executives and decision makers on the purchase of
tools . We build a diverse team of researchers with different backgrounds ( industrial
automation , measurement and instrumentation ) to support each of the primary research
with all stakeholders to conduct small tests and determine whether our critical
assumptions were correct or not
We applied the learning launch tool effectively focused on performing a survey based
on the key assumptions that need to be tested . In particular , we wanted to test whether
end users prefer a multipurpose battery operated tool having interchangeable heads by
using one single base tool instead of having a separate crimping and cutting tool
working independently .
The survey with all stakeholders across the value chain including 20 end users tested
our assumption that users prefer a single multipurpose tools in which users can crimp
and cut . Our team went through a number of primary research interviews and tests on
site to determine that a key requirement was to provide end users with interchangeable
heads for multiple applications with one single battery operated tool and provide
flexible tool usage . We made a research document with a clear description of tactical
product design requirements . For a second learning launch , we focused on providing
priorities on the design tactical recommendations with a specific timeline and priority .
Insight : By having the opportunity to apply the learning launch tool , we could learned
that our test assumption should be specific ( product details such as range of tons ,
interchangeable battery heads tools , etc ) to do n’t misinterpret our key assumptions
developed during the prototyping stage ( What wows ? ) . We had the opportunity to learn
that the usage of a learning launch tool , as it was explained during the course , is not a
go or not go decision . Instead , it was a learning experience to receive feedback from
stakeholders that allow us to improve our product design assumptions . Innovation is
does not mean stopping what you already do to be successful in your existing industry ,
it means broaden your horizons and perspectives of the existing business . Innovation
should not be considered at a single point of time . Instead we should look at innovation
considering the evolution of the product across a time frame and understand that
requirements evolves over time .
Approach : I believe the continuous learning experience at the “ what works ” stage is
critical instead of assuming our critical assumptions developed in the “ what wows ”
stage are correct . Next time , one of the main areas to improve is around the key metrics
we should focus on validating each critical assumption . During our survey we asked to
rate each requirement in a scale of 1 to 5 ( 1 and 2 meaning weak , 3 and 4 medium and 5
strong ) . The analysis presented was the perception of end users in our assumptions
analysis . However , I believe this kind of rating could be still more specific when we are
designing our learning lunch to do n’t misinterpret our assumptions . The success metrics
should be detailed , specific and precise to confirm or not our critical assumptions .

My challenge is to offer an innovative way for kindergarten children ( grades 1 - 5 ) in a particular school to be encouraged to read more literary books . Children have a need , which is to understand and be more interested in literature books . My idea is to create a small experiment group at a school library site to test a form of hybrid teaching using literature . Children usually prefer to play games on mobile phones and tablets rather than reading books , both physical and digital . The idea would be to make technology available along with literary education , so that would be a challenge for children and would do something fun and learning at the same time .
Selection
For this I selected the Learning Launch tool as it allows to conduct a small group experiment to test ideas . As well as allowing us to list the data that work and that do not work , with the collaborative help of various actors , in which case would be teachers of various classes of the school . The experiments this tool allows are important because they are fast and cheap , allowing you to test whether the idea works or not . This tool enables engagement among clients , which in this case would be children , along with their teachers . Video https://www.coursera.org/learn/uva-darden-design-thinking- innovation / lecture / F04r6 / learning - launch - tool
Application
I applied the Learning Launch tool . First I created my hypothesis , which is to do hybrid teaching of literature , in a school library for kindergarten students ( 1st to 5th grade ) . I verified and argued with a group of teachers that several students have “ key ” problems , which are of interest in literature , reading and understanding the stories . Several students also answered that they do not like storybooks . I found that my idea meets this need of students and more interestingly than other ideas , because hybrid teaching in literature will make children interested in reading , collaborating , being autonomous and learning while having fun and discovering their creativity . The Learning Launch tool was effective because it allowed me to create an experiment group , quickly and practically without cost , to test my hypothesis and also with the support of employees with qualitative and quantitative data .
Insight
Using the Learning Launch tool I was able to apply my hypothesis to the group of children and get their answer , validating the experiment , because they were receptive to the new idea of learning , participatory and collaborative . In fact , the data from the experiment were better than imagined in the hypothesis . Four groups ( station rotation ) were set up in the library , where each group had a particular task to accomplish at a given time and then moved to another group . For example , storytelling by the teacher , acting drama by students , conducting online puzzles , using
the Khan Academy platform by students . The best of the tool was the ability to test an idea quickly and without cost , knowing the need of the public and be able to obtain data that confirm the facts . As well as I discovered What Wow and What Works .
Approach
What I could do differently or test new tool would be to use the historytelling tool .

### Input: Challenge
My challenge is to offer an innovative way for kindergarten children ( grades 1 - 5 ) in a particular school to be encouraged to read more literary books . Children have a need , which is to understand and be more interested in literature books . My idea is to create a small experiment group at a school library site to test a form of hybrid teaching using literature . Children usually prefer to play games on mobile phones and tablets rather than reading books , both physical and digital . The idea would be to make technology available along with literary education , so that would be a challenge for children and would do something fun and learning at the same time .
Selection
For this I selected the Learning Launch tool as it allows to conduct a small group experiment to test ideas . As well as allowing us to list the data that work and that do not work , with the collaborative help of various actors , in which case would be teachers of various classes of the school . The experiments this tool allows are important because they are fast and cheap , allowing you to test whether the idea works or not . This tool enables engagement among clients , which in this case would be children , along with their teachers . Video https://www.coursera.org/learn/uva-darden-design-thinking- innovation / lecture / F04r6 / learning - launch - tool
Application
I applied the Learning Launch tool . First I created my hypothesis , which is to do hybrid teaching of literature , in a school library for kindergarten students ( 1st to 5th grade ) . I verified and argued with a group of teachers that several students have “ key ” problems , which are of interest in literature , reading and understanding the stories . Several students also answered that they do not like storybooks . I found that my idea meets this need of students and more interestingly than other ideas , because hybrid teaching in literature will make children interested in reading , collaborating , being autonomous and learning while having fun and discovering their creativity . The Learning Launch tool was effective because it allowed me to create an experiment group , quickly and practically without cost , to test my hypothesis and also with the support of employees with qualitative and quantitative data .
Insight
Using the Learning Launch tool I was able to apply my hypothesis to the group of children and get their answer , validating the experiment , because they were receptive to the new idea of learning , participatory and collaborative . In fact , the data from the experiment were better than imagined in the hypothesis . Four groups ( station rotation ) were set up in the library , where each group had a particular task to accomplish at a given time and then moved to another group . For example , storytelling by the teacher , acting drama by students , conducting online puzzles , using
the Khan Academy platform by students . The best of the tool was the ability to test an idea quickly and without cost , knowing the need of the public and be able to obtain data that confirm the facts . As well as I discovered What Wow and What Works .
Approach
What I could do differently or test new tool would be to use the historytelling tool . Because it is fun , creates an emotional connection with the target audience , children , so they would find it interesting to participate in the ideas . In historytelling , there would be a " cause " for elaboration , inspiring questions and moments of reflection would be created , creating a tension of ideas . Using historytelling for dissemination and design thinking for literature is also an excellent idea as it blends the stories , ideas , drawings , colors . And possibility of creating historytelling with animations and multimedia . Using technology for the reality of 21st century children .

The experience domain is something which many organisations are still opening upto but many are still unaware of the need and impact it can create . The asks sometimes miss out on the experience front , though found to be an essential component for the success of the outcome , based on initial research by us . To approach those proposals is a challenge as scope of the project would need to be tweaked by the client needing a solid basis or reason . A universal method of starting the discussion in terms of providing a vision for the client to start and later branching the discussion into the various domains is needed . An opportunity was presented when we were responding for a proposal for a multinational consumer goods company , the ask was to unify their laundry services ’ online presence , presently in the form of 3 different websites for their dry cleaning , self service locker and campus laundry services , also present was a mobile application limited to tracking the clothes . The basic need was to shift to a unified online presence . The ask was direct – to create one website from the three . Selection The main concern was that that the client was not aware of the complexity of creating one unifying presence from present 3 different sites having different users , their journeys and expectations .Simple scope mentioned creation of the web based site and extension of services onto their present mobile application . The requirement did not cater the present trends of mobile dependency and need of a seamless experience by all the clients ’ target users . This aspect needed to be communicated to the client effectively . I decided to use story telling as a tool to create the right impact for conveying what our vision was for the brands ’ unified portal . Storytelling would also help in explaining the client to look into the ecosystem creation for their users ( like providing cross sell and upsell opportunities later on ) , which seemed to have been overlooked in their requirement . Also last but not least since the outcome was to be a B2C ( Business to customer ) experience , the need was for extending the brand story more strongly to make the connect with their customers . Story telling would be an apt tool for the above . Application I needed the story to relate to the reviewers ( audience ) from the client side . So the story line that I created was from the point of view of a campus student , not only because the student was also a user of clients ’ services but also because they will have the empathy towards them based on their similar past journey ( almost all of them must have been a student at some point of time ) Another reason of choosing the campus student was that the he / she might be more willing to avail other services offered by client more openly . A character called Jessica was chosen as the main character of the story where she joins as a freshman in college . The premise was also created for her journey into college . Jessica ’s life in a day was the main storyline on which the pain points were concentrated upon , for example : juggling of time between classes , preparation required before laundry , stress she goes through thinking about the same etc . This way the main challenges were highlighted . The story was told using storyboarding and imagery and the presentation was done through video conference . The main issues were highlighted post the story telling which were : availability of laundry options according to convenience , assistance required in preparation , planning of the laundry cycles etc . A solution view was presented as the happy state also in a story form . The case was also presented that the student in the future will become a different segment user and since the connection is made he / she might become brand loyal and continue the journey through other services . A strong business case of upsell / cross sell was also communicated throughout the story . I was able to highlight a major point of strategic change that was required by the client in terms of strategy , which was to concentrate on the mobile presence approach rather than the present ask of web . So the story was built from a premise to the present and finally to a future scenario and steps of how to reach that state . Insight The presentation was well received from the client , they agreed to most of the scope modifications suggested . Few which they mentioned that could not be implemented were reserved for the future scope of work . Overall it was a good and apt case of using story telling to push through our strategic vision and win the project . Storytelling as a tool is very effective but does have its limitations .Its very effective for the cases where the brand story has to be enhanced , created or relooked into . Cases where the strategic changes are to be suggested the method of story telling also works . But it is difficult to use story telling for creating use cases or business cases when the scope of something is already well defined or clarity of approach is very much present , examples of them would be B2B ( business to business applications ) .
Approach The approach followed by me for the above scenario was suited and worked perfectly , but as I face different clients with different requirements this process might not give the same results like others . As mentioned above that story telling would be helpful in cases where the brand value and user centric design plays a major part but many a times I or we face clients from the B2B domain where the asks are not that oriented to the above points . I would in that scenario try to use a combination of storytelling with the refined process / service flow solutions .

A Best friend ? ? ?
A story tells that two friends were walking through the desert . During some point of the journey they had an argument , and one friend slapped the other one in the face . The one who got slapped was hurt , but without saying anything , wrote in the sand ; “ Today my best friend slapped me in the face . " They kept on walking until they found an oasis , where they decided to take a bath . The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning , but the friend saved him . After he recovered from the near drowning , he wrote on a stone ; “ Today my best friend saved my life . " The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him ; “ After I hurt you , you wrote in the sand and now , you write on a stone , why ? ” The other friend replied ; " When someone hurts us we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness can erase it away . But , when someone does something good for us , we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it . ”
PERSON 1 “ Today my best friend slapped me in the face ” , wrote it in the sand .
I felt that when both the friends had agreement , one was very aggregative and slapped the another . But the person who got slapped did not react anything and just wrote in the sand that his friend slapped him .
This shows that he is very considerate towards his friend . He does not want to get into a fight with his friend and want to forget that incident .
PERSON 2 “ After I hurt you , you wrote in the sand and now , you write on a stone , why ? ”
I felt that the friend who was slapped wrote it on sand that “ my friend slapped me “ because he does not want to remember the bad incident between them .when his friend saved his life he wrote it on stone that “ my friend saved my life " , because he do n’t want that memories to be erased .
This shows that we need no value the people who we have in our life more than the things you have .

Challenges
Mind mapping is one of the most powerful tools in the design thinking . It is used to look for patterns and insights that lead to more creative solutions to your design challenge . In the first phase of design thinking process is “ what is ” . We get a huge amount of data . The next phase is “ what if ” in which we need to condense all that data into information and insights that can be easily communicated . This can be done very well using mind mapping .
Mind mapping is looking for patterns and insights in a large quantity of data we collected . The goal is to establish criteria for the “ what - if ” , this is pivotal in the design thinking process . Mind mapping provides easy flow from “ what is ” to “ what if ” . Mind mapping is an engaging alternative to report or else we will have to summarise them I chart . Mind mapping is more intuitive . It ’s more creative . It 's more visual , and it 's more engaging .
Through mind mapping , we extract meaning from data in a way that lets patterns and insights come to light , but the design thinking process of generating the map , deliberately involves many stakeholders .
Selection
Mind mapping is most common used technique in project management . This technique is used to collect and consolidate ideas created through brainstorming sessions with the team . The consolidated map reflects the agreements as well as differences in understanding or generating new ideas . This technique provides visual representation through maps so that everyone in the team the leader as well as the members can discuss and further explore the ideas further to analyse and solve the problems . Creating a mind map follows few principles , the idea or the problem ( the main focus ) in the middle and the sub topics or the categories to analyse the problem are written around . In a mind map the diagram captures the idea or the problem .
Application
In the first project we will be a mind map , as it helps users grasp knowledge points quickly and we can view the concept as a whole . Visualization with less text and more pictures makes it more intuitive and understandable . Taking the notes in mind map is inspiring and expressive , it is concise and saves both energy and time with more efficiency . Brainstorming can develop one ’s thoughts to help them find more inspiration and more information .
Project managers can use different mind mapping techniques to create mind maps . The whiteboard or paper mind map is commonly used in project management planning . It is a very simple way of presenting the idea . Mind mapping software can also be used .
Mind maps are important during the project implementation phase . They are created before even writing the scope of the project . It helps the team to determine every resource needed for the project . It can be used as an indicator of the constraints that may affect the completion and quality of the project .
The most important benefit is that it provides a visual way of expressing ideas and communicating these ideas to the rest of the team members . Mind maps have been used by project managers for a long time .
When there will be business meeting discussing the problem or the idea it will be very helpful for the speaker as it lays out all the main idea and details better , the speaker will be able to deliver more fluently .
Insight
The systematic and logical thinking will create more creativity and promote innovation . A Deep and comprehensive understanding of the problems will accelerate the phase of solving it as mind map has of visual details which will urge people to think more deeply .
Mind map offers a well systematic , organized and clear way to make plans showing all the details visually that enables us to find out the priorities easily . We can view the short term and the long - term goals clearly , enabling us to categories goals in small achievable objectives .

Challenge We are making major revisions to our top - selling professional education course , which historically has involved textbooks , some video lectures , and an online or in - person exam to complete . Studying takes 2 to 6 weeks to take an exam and the full course , for a professional designation , is 8 exams on different topics . Feedback from students indicates we need to change the format to adapt to new learning needs . Selection A lot of work had been done prior to my joining the project . Surveys , interviews with students and with their employers , review of product feedback , competitive analysis , plus much more . In addition , those involved in designing the new course and its content are very seasoned professionals with a lot of experience in what works and what does n't . In fact , most of them had taken at least some of our courses as students , so were very familiar with the student experience . For example , we think students want more online courses , fewer printed textbooks , shorter course segments , recorded live instructor segments , audio books . We think they want more real - life examples , but does that look like case studies , or like industry - specific topics ? The key was to specify all the assumptions , data points , and hypotheses that were driving decisions and be sure we agreed on what was important and how to proceed . As a market researcher , my goal was to collect all the hypotheses and outstanding questions in a systematic way so I could validate and/or understand them better through additional research . I decided mind mapping was the technique to use . Application I started with a small group of key leaders and invited them to two meetings . The first was to lay out what we were going to do and ask them to help . I gave them a sheet with some prompts and categories for them to list their hypotheses and questions prior to the second meeting . At the second , mind mapping , meeting , I had them transfer their hypotheses to sticky notes , one to a note . This gave them a chance to review their questions , clarify them , and make sure they had distinct ideas on separate notes . I had placed flipchart sheets on the wall with three key topics – course content , course delivery methods , and the marketplace for the course . Then we went around in turn , each person reading out one of their hypotheses and placing it on the appropriate sheet . If someone had a similar one , we 'd put that one up . We discussed where they go and if we needed more key topics . After all the hypotheses were on the sheets , we grouped them into broad research areas – where we need more information before we make the significant investment to make critical changes . Once we had the groups , we voted on what was most important – on two levels – by placing dot stickers as votes . The first level was what we needed to know before we started making changes and the second what we needed to know before we decided what changes to make .
Insight These were all people with a lot of experience and a lot of good ideas that just were n't well documented and effectively collected and prioritized . Not all of the ideas were well - backed with data , not because they were bad ideas , but just that we tend to rely on anecdotes and personal experience to prioritize things . It was a revelation to the group how much we were assuming without proper verification . I was also impressed by how much agreement there was on both direction and key issues that need to be validated . Not that everyone thought the same thing , but everyone agreed where we really needed to focus to make the best use of resources and minimize the risk of a large undertaking .

Approach This was a very high - level exercise . I wanted to get something on the table to help our leaders participate in the research process , which was n't something the organization was used to . A different approach would involve more detailed looks at these clusters of hypotheses and more in - depth discussion of what we know and what we do n't know .

### Input: Reflection – Mind Mapping
Challenge We are making major revisions to our top - selling professional education course , which historically has involved textbooks , some video lectures , and an online or in - person exam to complete . Studying takes 2 to 6 weeks to take an exam and the full course , for a professional designation , is 8 exams on different topics . Feedback from students indicates we need to change the format to adapt to new learning needs . Selection A lot of work had been done prior to my joining the project . Surveys , interviews with students and with their employers , review of product feedback , competitive analysis , plus much more . In addition , those involved in designing the new course and its content are very seasoned professionals with a lot of experience in what works and what does n't . In fact , most of them had taken at least some of our courses as students , so were very familiar with the student experience . For example , we think students want more online courses , fewer printed textbooks , shorter course segments , recorded live instructor segments , audio books . We think they want more real - life examples , but does that look like case studies , or like industry - specific topics ? The key was to specify all the assumptions , data points , and hypotheses that were driving decisions and be sure we agreed on what was important and how to proceed . As a market researcher , my goal was to collect all the hypotheses and outstanding questions in a systematic way so I could validate and/or understand them better through additional research . I decided mind mapping was the technique to use . Application I started with a small group of key leaders and invited them to two meetings . The first was to lay out what we were going to do and ask them to help . I gave them a sheet with some prompts and categories for them to list their hypotheses and questions prior to the second meeting . At the second , mind mapping , meeting , I had them transfer their hypotheses to sticky notes , one to a note . This gave them a chance to review their questions , clarify them , and make sure they had distinct ideas on separate notes . I had placed flipchart sheets on the wall with three key topics – course content , course delivery methods , and the marketplace for the course . Then we went around in turn , each person reading out one of their hypotheses and placing it on the appropriate sheet . If someone had a similar one , we 'd put that one up . We discussed where they go and if we needed more key topics . After all the hypotheses were on the sheets , we grouped them into broad research areas – where we need more information before we make the significant investment to make critical changes . Once we had the groups , we voted on what was most important – on two levels – by placing dot stickers as votes . The first level was what we needed to know before we started making changes and the second what we needed to know before we decided what changes to make .

Challenge :
I am a product manager , working in the marketing team of a leading cosmetic company , in charge of a brand that was struggling . This brand has had several launches in the past 3 years that were supposed to be THE ONE – the Needle mover - and ended up ruining the reputation of the brand . As a result the commercial team along with our clients and customers have lost trust and faith in the brand . They all became very skeptical to any new product , story and promises . I had to turn the brand around and was given the opportunity to launch a product into the market which I was the only one to believe it was going to be a success and be THE needle mover we have all been waiting for . I strongly believed in the new product because I worked with the technology utilized in that product in another channel where it had proven its potential . Knowing the end consumer I was working with and their needs based on previous qualitative and quantitative research we have done I was sure that I had between my hands the Holy Grail . I needed to convince the commercial team and the clients to launch the product and invest in it .
Selection :
I decided to use the learning launch tool . I had the idea ( new product ) , the target group with the specific need and I was missing the testing ground . Therefore I needed to convince one client to allow me to test my hypothesis .
Application :
To convince one client to allow me to test my hypothesis I have used story telling technic , talking about the history of the technology , what it has achieved in other markets and how it can answer the need of their consumers which we had identified together by doing observations and intercepts in their stores . As a result , the product was launched in about a 100 doors and we tested the sellout , impact of the
C1 - Internal use
product on the brand image and the consumers ’ feedback about the concept , the performance of the product and its relevance in their daily life . The data we collected confirmed our theory and convinced the most skeptical of the group . As a result we continued with a roll out with all clients and this product today is a hero product which has saved the brand image and increased profitability and sales .
Insight :
We have been used to taking the same launch approach every time , which is to launch a product wide and big . As a result losses are huge . With the learning launch process I was able to break a cycle of bad decisions and build a launch with a stronger base . By involving the team ( believers and skepticals ) and a client we were able to test and convince each other of the potential the product offered all of us .
Approach :
I believe I have used the right tool for the dilemma I had . However it is not always the right tool and go- to tool I would use . All will of course depend on which question I am trying to answer . In general my go to tool in life is story telling .

Challenge
Multi National Company , a financial technology firm in the last year has identified a lack of growth in some key departments like a decrease in staff morale , increased absence , poor job performance and high levels of work - related stress in a period where the company is carrying out a major upgrade of all of their office application software to the new Microsoft Office 365 platform . A committee was setup to identify solutions to these problems and the feedback from anonymous surveys overwhelmingly pointed to one key area that may have been ignored for some time – Internal Staff Training .
The change management process overlooked the need to train staff at all levels on how to do their core functions with the new software deployed company - wide . The final verdict was that HR needed to overhaul the existing training matrix which was outdated and had been in use since 2003 . It was found that staff did not have enough training and there was no way to map what courses should be assigned to help improve on the job . The training data needed to dig into and possibly turn this situation around was readily available which included , staff reassignments , promotions and change in policies and procedures over a ten year period .
Selection
Visualization is a tool we use to articulate the problems we mostly speak of in words and try to break them down in complexity by using drawings , doodles or in cases where data is available , employ the use of visualization tools to get more insight into these problems . Language alone can not paint a picture of how a problem will get solved because the words may be interpreted differently in the minds of all stakeholders involved .
As the Head of Business Analytics I chose this tool because visualizations can help eliminate the ambiguity of interpretation that words carry and everyone can get on the same page . Insights can be gained using visualization tools like Power BI or Tableau which will show a pattern to help elicit change , show other forms of insights like predictive analysis to understand future trends or help mitigate upcoming perceived problems . Our visualization tool of choice was Power BI due to its easy integration with other Microsoft tools already used by the company .
Application
For the first week our planned intervention , my team focused on data cleansing to get some structure to the data and then proceed to get it plugged into Power BI . What we started to see not long after was that setting up this data as visuals on a dashboard started giving us a - ha moments , and showed even more grey areas than out initial investigations revealed . The reports generated cut across the different departments of the organization , the evolution of jobs based on promotions and then the right training based on the current portfolio and the personal development goal of the staff in any given one year period . This process was a team effort with entity heads involved to give clarification on areas that needed more explanation by answering a few questions and letting us know why certain decisions were taken over others . Power BI ’s advanced data services feature proved to be the most exciting part as we learned we could ask verbal queries based on our data . To sum up the experience , the results we had were mind - blowing .
Insight
It was generally agreed as a team that another four weeks was needed to take this new information gathered from the dashboards and queries to acquire new training matrix software or find a way to take the current lapses and generating a new plan geared at reversing the trend . The reason for this outcome stemmed from the fact that the results were even better than anticipated when the decision was made to employ visualization tools . The results brought up the need for the establishment of a dedicated training team as a new department under the Human Resources division . The need also of proper change management processes was also established . I finally learned that visualization is not only about drawings , or dashboards or predictive models but also visual thinking . This is because visual thinking in our approach pushed us beyond words and sentiments ; it pushed us to use part of our brains that we sometimes fail to use . I now understand why visualization is an important Design thinking tool .
Approach
Senior Management already had begun plans to invite trainers from local Microsoft affiliated vendors in the city to start training staff on the new applications deployed . In the end this approach became a result of not only visualizations but visual thinking which brought about insights to the possibilities of what if we used this approach instead of how it ’s always been done . They also invested in ‘ Docebo ’ , a flexible and scalable learning management solution designed to address the needs of businesses of any size , from SMBs to large companies / enterprises .
My biggest learning take away from this project is the importance of different perspective from the same data or visualization . Our minds are wonderful when employed or challenged to think differently . I have designed a curriculum based on this project and next time I encounter a challenge backed up by data , I intend to use the lessons learned from the visualization process , hopefully fine - tune aspects that lend themselves to improvement and eventually pass it on to others in the form of a learning guide to improve business processes .

My basic idea is to replace the plastic cover and all packaging materials made of plastic with a film which is made of sea weed . They are sometimes edible ( Depends on the ingredients ) , eco - friendly , biodegradable and used for packaging , replacing plastic packaging with seaweed or known as brown algae as a component . This helps the environment by reducing plastic pollution and also is helpful in improving the livelihood of the seaweed farmers who depends on the seaweed for their livelihood .
Selection :
The tool which I used for my innovation was the tool of Mind Mapping to identify and find the possible solutions to the problem . My customers are basically the hyper local markets who are working to apply the innovations which reduce the plastic wastage . Mind mapping tells us about how the ideas are attached to the main idea and to each other . Mind maps are used to generate and classify ideas by looking for the insights to provide the main design criteria . We do this by displaying the information and will ask people to observe them in ways that allow them to get rid of the problem . Mind mapping basically considered as a team sport . If played carefully the entire team will succeed . This work on the latest trends . Now a days a lot of people are trying to innovate something which helps in the reduction of plastic wastage .
Application
The front - runner in the world of biodegradable packaging is seaweed . It 's naturally high in fibre and vitamins . As they are biodegradable , they will decompose within 6 weeks without causing any harm to the environment .
Despite using the plastic packaging , we can use these films made from the seaweed .
First thing we does is we were a team of 5 members . We used to divide our work and plan accordingly depending on our capabilities . We have gone to our nearby hyper local markets and got the information about the number of plastic covers used by them per day . by seeing them we are shocked by the
result . Then we started working on the components which can help in solving the problem of this plastic pollution .
What if we replace the plastic covers by the seaweed packaging which is at our desired price and even with the offering of all other things which a plastic carry bag does . We started worked on it . Started to follow the principles of design thinking and getting new ideas in an innovative way in order to get our desired product onto the market .
We reached some of the hyper local markets and spoke about this type of packaging by explaining them about the product their feedback is lot more helpful . They said if it was available in the market , they would be the one who uses the seaweed packaging as the alternative for the plastic packages .
Insight & Approach
The main thing I wanted to convey is that the thing which we came through this exercise is that their suggestions were a lot helpful for understanding their response about the issue we are trying to solve , the most crucial aspect is the shared thoughts and their queries that are raised while we are trying to solve the problem . And in some cases , based on the questions they raised we were able to modify the product in order to face the challenge of such a huge monster of plastic pollution .
Since I learned one of the most important aspect of the design thinking is the shared insights and learning , next time I would like to take the help of the mind mapping activity for the upcoming design thinking activities . Then later on I would go for all other tools depending on the situation .

I work in an industrial organization which is divided into two divisions , operation and maintenance . The challenge was to keep a generator always full and avoid fuel shortage . Since there were many such incidents . The task requires certain equipment to transfer the cartridge for the refilling . The maintenance workers were asked by the operation division to do this task since they have certified employees to operate the equipment .
Selection
After investigations And applying the projective technique(pinwheel)it turned out that the task actually belongs to the operation workers but they avoided it because they feel they are not appreciated for the extra work and it has no weight in their performance .
Application
After a long Discussion , the management has decided to give some of the operators A qualifying training and certificate to operate the equipment and grant a day off for the required documentation so they can feel competent . And consider the certificate in their performance rating to reflect the extra work in their bonus . And grant a day off after passing the renewal performance test to keep them engaged and encouraged . Since then the generator is always full , the Operation workers were happy to carry on the task and the maintenance are able to focus on their own tasks .
Insight
Usually such an issue will be solved by disciplinary actions and forcing them to do the task which causes unproductive workers in an unhealthy working environment .

Challenge :
I ’m a member of a team working within a scientific organization and we have been assigned to establish a sustainable energy department and state its objectives and initiatives that we will work on for a period of one year . The main challenge that we faced was how to structure our department in terms of its objectives , and what these objectives shall be specially we were n’t clear yet about the scopes that we will focus on because of the vastness of the sustainability definition . Moreover , these objectives should add value to both scales , organizational and the country vision toward sustainability . Our team is consisting of ten members under a bigger organization which consist of different departments such as purchase department , exterior relation department , finance department and services department . All these departments will have a contribution toward our team to achieve the department goals .
Selection :
My team and I started this mission by arranging several workshops to go through different design thinking tools . After analyzing several options , we found out that mind mapping could be the best option for us so we decided to use it as our designing tool for our challenge . Despite of the other tools , mind mapping is a useful tool for the case where you have a lot of things to demonstrate and you want to extract your goals from it by focusing directly to the required things to achieve our goals in most efficient , simplest , and practical ways .
Application :
We started our mind mapping by four sessions divided on a week time , stating all scopes related to sustainability that each member might think of and stick it to our mapping board . After that we chose the most relevant ones and focused it to five main scopes including green energy , energy saving strategies and tools , recycling processes , Co2 emissions , sustainability policies & public initiatives . After we stated all related topics , we planned 3 days per week workshops for a three weeks ’ time - period . The aim of these workshops was to connect which goes to which in terms of wither this work will be done within the organizational scale , the country vision scale or both . To connect our map , we drew lines using markers and strings making it easy to follow in different stages . Now for this stage we were having all our objectives on our map , and the next phase was to break down each objective to its stages and what will be the expectations after the implementation . Finally , we ended our mind mapping sessions by looking at where each member of our team has an interest and in what scope of work each member can do the best . Thus , he / she can serve the best and has their input to the maximum .
Insight :
The outcome of the mind mapping tool was having five teams , where each team consist of two members working on one of the five scopes mentioned above . By applying the mind mapping tool , we created our map that we can follow to structure and achieve our objectives . Moreover , it helped us to design the department structure with respect to the scopes and its tasks through the workshops that we carried . We considered a path for each scope parallel to what we expected to achieve in it . We also stated what are the sub projects or tasks that can be considered under each scope to serve its outcome . It was important to mention it clearly wither the scope will has the impact on the organizational level , or community and country level .
At this stage , our team become more familiar with the work that should be carried this year and the objectives are clearer to them . However , at the earlier stages , the terms energy , and sustainability were very wide titles and it were n’t clear where to start as they consist of many variables and sections that needed to be covered . Using the mind mapping tool helped us well to clarify the uncertainty that might occur through this work and to narrow our focus toward the topics that we thought they are much interested and more relevant . The end year results of applying this tool were great as we managed to achieve two tasks in each scope where one task was targeting the organization itself and the other supporting the country vision .
Approach :
The work done for the first six weeks started with illustrating different design thinking tools and ended by applying the mind mapping as our design thinking tool . Using this tool presented a great impact in the work that the team carried within the year and resulted in achieving more than what expected for a short time period . My team and I will strongly stick to use this tool for our future work as we found out that it suits our type of work which includes a lot of information , charts , graphs and tables that always need to be linked towards having the promised outcomes . We agreed to follow the mind mapping we already used for our future tasks and objectives and it always must demonstrate the insight within the work , the progress done , and focus more toward the impact that we are expecting .
