USERNAME - A student's username on any platform.
ID_NUM - A number or sequence of characters that could be used to identify a student, such as a student ID or a social security number.
PHONE_NUM - A phone number associated with a student.
URL_PERSONAL - A URL that might be used to identify a student.
STREET_ADDRESS - A full or partial street address that is associated with the student, such as their home address. | Innovative Collaboration
Challenge and selection
My team supports the innovation process and both " innovation " and " process " are abstract concepts that are not tangible , in itself a challenge to work with . I need to get the stakeholders onboard with the process and overall goals , so they can support my team in the success of the program . When I saw the mine mapping tool , I know this is something we can use to help us to get other teams ( communication , marketing , HR , legal .. etc ) on board in order to work together more effectively .
Application
It helps having an ally before going into a meeting , so I had a casual chat with the communications team lead at the hallway . Mid - week , we met with rest of the stakeholder to devise a plan to handle the submissions from the last campaign . The communication lead used mine mapping and drew the high level work flow for the meeting participants .
Insight and approach
I realized mine mapping was the perfect tool to use for trying to understand work flows . It helps all stakeholders see how all the pieces work and better understand how other pieces fit into the big picture . This would help collaboration and increase productivity because other groups would be able to contribute where they see fit , even if it 's outside of their area . The mine mapping technique is flexible to go into deep discussion as desired or keeping it at high level , when that makes sense . We could literally jump from one thought to another , like the way our brain process and think , and still be able to capture the key thoughts down in print .

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 provider , which was available for us , and we thought about resolving these 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 Design 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 though 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 customer 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 .
The first Design Thinking tool we used was Visualization because it focuses mainly on the first part of “ What is ? ” from the whole process of design thinking .
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 . It felt like we could take the process to a whole next level . Having a concrete way of seeing our own ideas , we found ourselves coming up with new ideas that we never thought about before , thus being more creative .

Challenge
During an SAP large scale implementation I was responsible to conduct the end - user learning strategy for employees impacted with the use of the new tool . During this assignment I was responsible to deliver the “ role mapping data base ” to the learning team in the company . This deliverable was key to ensure every employee in the company received the training accordingly to their position in the organization . My team was pretty new and did n’t have previous experience conducting a role mapping exercise that requires lots of diligence and accuracy to avoid mistakes . After asking my team showed me a dry - run to see how they were going to conduct the activity I realized that they were not going to be able to perform the activity in order to produce the expected result .
Selection
At the time I did n’t know I was going to select a specific tool of design thinking . I was unaware of the approach and methodology . I randomly selected the “ visualization ” tool . Before learning about design thinking I knew , as per my background in psychology and adult education , this was going to be a great solution to show my team how to properly execute the role mapping activity and finalize the deliverable on time .
Application
I booked a meeting room for two hours and with my team I explained step by step the process and what I was hoping to receive after the exercise . The most impactful thing during the meeting was the way I explained the process : I draw in the board using boxes and other diagrams step by step the large process . Every time during my explanation I step in a sub - process or a deliverable within the overall process I went to my computer and I showed them how that specific document was linked in the approach , and then I continued drawing in the bard the next step until I finished my explanation . After the exposition we had a large picture that was used by my team as a blueprint to conduct their mapping .
Insight
By that time I did n’t know I was using the visualization tool and I found it very powerful when trying to be more concise when communicating your idea or expectations especially when you are in an environment that demands to you to design solutions to solve very complex and abstract problems .
Approach
I find the visualization tool one of the most important tools when solving a problem with your team . During the last projects I ’ve worked for , I ’ve always use this tool when designing solutions and it encourages my teams to continue the conversation over something abstract and go beyond the ideas to land into a more concrete designs . This tool is something that I ’m planning to keep using it .

Challenge
I am from Accounts person in a textile manufacturing plant . We are facing many problems related to data analysing and providing the same to various authorities and other departments of organisation . One of the problem is providing complete detail to our GST cell for filing monthly GST returns .
Selection
Now as I have enrolled in Design thinking course , I started to apply the 1st tool as Visualisation to check its validity whether it works or bookish knowledge only . I took this opportunity to resolve this problem by visualisation tool . So I called all stakeholders associated with this problem in one room & explained what I have learnt from the visualisation tool . Then I shared the visual video for better understanding of all the team members .
Application
I took the challenge as account person to draw a picture of the existing procedure and source of data compiling the return . By using visualisation tool , I explained the requirement of GST cell for filing the return . With this detail flow chart everyone in the team understand the final requirement and all team members suggest the various source of data to collect information . Team had decided the best source of data and procedure to compile the return .
Insight
This visualisation tool process helped to find very common things which we normally ignore while thinking for troubleshooting . When we write or draw a picture , small tiny things appear in the picture . These small details pictures actually lead to complete the picture as a whole for broader vision .
Approach
Design tool helped us for a systematic approach to solve the problem by involving all related stakeholders . It helped me understand the issue , figure out possible solutions , and find the best solution out of them . The whole process is very fun and visual , that help to understand the problem easily , narrow down the key issues , and figure out some pattern or insights to design a solution .

Challenge and selection
Strorytelling is one of the most interesting tools to connect with the emotions of our stakeholders , it is used by large brands as a positioning strategy in the minds of consumers , or to be recognized by their audience . It is presented as a way of transmitting the values , history and purpose of companies . It is about knowing consumers very well and telling them what they really want to hear through pleasant stories that cause them curiosity and great emotional impact , in order to capture their attention .
Everything is better when it is told through stories , the situation is better perceived and understood than when it is done in a traditional way , that is why this tool is increasingly being implemented by important companies and I find it very interesting to talk about it .
Application
This semester of the university I decided to enroll in the subject " projects " with high expectations and hopes of learning . In the first class , the professor told us his personal story , his professional career , his experience in the different jobs he has had , his jacket venture and other opportunities in the labor field . He did it to show us the importance of the subject and how from the projects we can contribute to change in society , help the most vulnerable populations , have more job opportunities and improve our quality of life . In the different topics on agile methodologies , he highlighted storytelling as a very appropriate tool in marketing to define the customer 's profile and their need , through a practical example , he made us understand that from stories , companies better understand what It is what the client requires and how he can adapt the product or service to his life , to generate greater satisfaction .
Insight and Approach
Through a history , consumers can be made to understand the evolution that the company has had , for example , when a historical story is told , it can also be shown how people can consume our product in their day to day , in their special occasions and with the most important people , such as family , in this way we can connect with clients from their emotions and feelings . A story can be told around the values of the company , so that consumers can live them and relate them directly to the brand .
It is also a very useful tool within organizations , it can be used to ensure that all members understand the objectives or projects that they want to carry out , with this a more dynamic environment to work is made and encourages everyone to carry out a nice job . It helps to raise the performance and results of the organization , through greater commitment and involvement of workers . Leaders can , through the use of this
tool , make their strategies clearer and understood by all , preventing them from becoming complex and boring .
Storytelling is part of the agile methodologies that are used by companies that have understood that the base of everything is customers and consider them as the center , it is very valuable because both customers and investors better understand the value proposition that is offered when told as a story , it can be one that shows how the product / service meets a need or fills a gap .
The challenge is knowing how to tell the stories , create messages that attract people 's attention , generate reflection and identify with what they live daily , for this it is important that the story that is told is real .

Challenge As a student who ’s studying Sociology and Urban Science , the objective of my thesis is to investigate slums around the developed countries ( mainly East Asia ) , learn about their similarities and differences , and build a model that could be applied to those struggling communities . The time for the thesis is limited ( 3 months ) and there ’s not enough budget for conducting field research in several countries . Therefore , I ’m looking for efficient strategies that could successfully identify the common factors that those towns display under the time and budget constraint . Interviewing experts ( working in the Urban Redevelopment Division in European cities ) was one of the methods that I chose to gain insights . In order to deduct meaningful conclusions from their opinions , I have to explain the situations of Japan and South Korean slums to them succinctly and effectively . Selection I chose Storytelling as I thought it could be a very effective way to explain the situations , especially considering the fact that Urban Studies ( that deals with people ’s relationship with their surroundings ) is the field that I ’m mainly dealing with . As the lecture said , “ Storytelling says it ’s not about the lists 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 . ” In that aspect , storytelling could do a fantastic job not only explaining Asian slums but also making connections between their surroundings and my research . Application I first noticed that Local Administrations there ( City Hall , Ward Office , etc . ) have published several “ biographies ” of the slum inhabitants in order to preserve the towns ' history . By reading through them , I was able to create two figures - A South Korean woman in her 80s who settled down in the slum during the Korean War and a Japanese young man who ’s living in a rapidly aging town - that effectively conveys the living conditions & historical importance of those slums . During the interview , I introduced the interviewee to the two figures , explained their stories , and detailed the problems that they faced in their daily lives ( poor infrastructure , aging population , etc .. ) and asked for his insight . The expert , who was working in Düsseldorf , then talked about his city ’s history and the redevelopment process in the ‘ 80s , and explained how the transformation of his city could be applied specifically to the slums that I ’m researching . He understood the circumstances very well and explained that Germany and Japan / South Korea shared a lot of common characteristics that could be solved by governmental policies . Insight & Approach So , I was surprised by how effective the strategy was ! Just as the lecture and several books on storytelling said , I did realize that people , in fact , think everything in stories . I believe that storytelling conveyed my point very well ; by making figures , the conditions of slums could be vividly told . It changed my approach on Sociology / Urban Science , as it made me focus more on people ’s stories and less on statistics .
Given the circumstances , I do believe that Storytelling is the most effective design thinking activity that I could use at the moment . Other tools , such as Mind Mapping and Learning Launch , could be used while summarizing the insights that I earned by doing interviews and researches and trying to come up with a solid conclusion .

The purpose of this platform is to prepare final - year medical students for their residency exams . This poses a challenge from the point of view of the product , content , definition of the methodology to be applied to the learning process and , from now on , discovering and understanding the habits of last year medical students . Selection Together with the team of medical and educational directors , we selected in order to align both the need to discover our potential users , as well as having a prototype to launch at an initial stage , the journey mapping and learning launch tools Application Because we had many hypotheses regarding our target audience , we decided to test them and define insights based on the field information we obtained by visiting hospitals and learning about the habits of final - year medical students . After multiple interviews in various cities of the country , we learned about their habits and , among other factors , the level of dedication when preparing for the entrance exams to the medical residency . This allowed us to work on the product itself , and on the value proposition that would later be communicated at the commercial and marketing level . In turn , it allowed us to have the bases on which to develop the product that would be launched on the market , being that based on its evolution and continuous interaction with new users , continuous improvements have been made , thus achieving a highly advanced , superior environment to the competition and with very good results in the performance of the students . Insight Having understood that of the universe of final - year students , the largest population does not resort to private methods or academic support for the preparation of medical exams , we initially focused on the conclusion of an adaptive teaching environment based on artificial intelligence for the public that seeks an excellent preparation in pursuit of gaining entry to the best vacancies in hospitals . This segment highly values the daily activity guide and performance monitoring provided by a platform based on artificial intelligence . The technology supported by quality content and a highly recognized academic body allowed us to gain a rapid positioning in the market . In parallel , a more economical proposal began to be developed with variations in the product , with the aim of attracting a greater percentage of users within the segment that initially did not plan to train in a study academy to take the exams . The focus on this business changes radically , as profitability becomes associated with a purely volume business
Approach
The results six months after the launch have been very good , with rapid recognition from the students ; which is highly representative as it is competing with companies that have been in business for at least 20 years . The proposal of a digital environment has been extremely revolutionary , and has allowed us to achieve a national reach versus the competition . We still work on the basis of special adaptations for certain regions of the country in which there are particular conditions in the exams , being that they are extremely interesting for the business given the volume of potential users . We precisely recognize that we have lacked a greater level of confrontation of the platform with the realities of the different regions .

Challenge :
Currently training certification Courses ( e.g. PMI - PMP , PMI - RMP ... etc ) are offered and trained by third party consultant which is costing the company for each employee attending these courses . On the other hand , the schedule of the courses are not fixed and keep changing based on the availability of instructor and number of participants .
Selection :
The tool that I used is Learning Launch which we start with creating hypothesis , identifying the customers , their needs and how this idea will help them to make a better certification training for their employees . Then we test the hypothesis ( You can get more information about The Learning Launch in Week 4 Video 3 ) .
Application :
We started with identifying our customers who were the engineers that are required to complete certifications training . We developed a team of different divisions , Design , procurement , Construction , Cost , HR and scheduling . We identified the issue we have and generated ideas to resolve it and we agreed on the proposed idea : To train one or more of department employees and certify them as instructors for PMI certifications courses ( e.g. PMI - PMP , PMI - RMP .. etc ) . Once they are certified as instructors , they can start providing training to department employees . Employees who will attend this will be given a specific period to get the certification ( e.g. Six months ) and they can get the support form trained instructors during their preparation for exam certification . After that , we agreed to make dry run session to see the effectiveness of the proposal and the session went well as we already had a certified employee .
Insight :
I learned from working in this activity that you need to take into consideration the bias of different organization employees as each one is thinking what will my division will benefit from this proposal .
Approach :
Next time I would like to use the mind mapping tool as a starting point for design thinking activities as it ’s more creative . It 's more visual , and it 's more engaging .

Example Reflection – Storytelling tool .
Challenge and Selection
I am an SME Account Manager for a big telecommunication company . My organization every year ( before the pandemic ) organize a weekend for all B2B sales employees including back - office . We are gathering in a hotel for an “ all - together weekend ” . During this weekend a lot of activities take place . One of the activities , which includes bonding activities like games , is brainstorming in order to make create ideas for the organizations for future launches .
My team decided a few years ago during one of these weekends , to ask from the Organizations to create a software tool which every Account Manager would have at his tablet and when he visits any client would have in real time all the information that he needs about the client phone lines . He could also use this application to create new contract for new phone lines of existing customers .
The tool we used to make our proposition is Storytelling . We need as much as possible information about this software tool .
Application
During this weekend time we discussed with all the account managers about their needs explaining to them that addressing their needs could have a huge impact for all of us . We discussed about every day activities and how this tool would improve the meetings with the clients . We also contacted with some clients and asked them about their opinion , what kind of information they want from their account manager to have with him during their meeting . We also discussed with senior managers about the privacy issues and what information would the organizations allowed us to have in real time during client meetings . Everyone helped us and our proposition prepared .
Insight
During the us of the Storytelling tool we identified our assumptions . Other Account managers did things with a different way as we did , they also spend different amount of time with every client . We also find out that some clients needs more information and more quality meetings with them . We also find out that the time we ( the account manager ) would spend with every customer would highly increase and so less clients meetings would take place every day . The more important issue that appeared is the privacy issues that appeared from the organization . Moving forward our team review the key issues and in the final propositions we included all the information that we find out .
Approach
A lot of information appeared using storytelling tool and our proposal was a really good one as the organization also admitted . After software would be launched by the IT department we could also use the Learning launch tool in order to improve the software and to add more information on it . I think that this course gave me an excellent opportunity to learn improved techniques and think things with a different way .

Challenge & Selection
The art of storytelling can not be learnt over a day or two – storytelling is an incredible tool that I often use especially dealing with traditional stakeholders who are n’t active and updated to the latest trends in the technology ecosystem .
Working with aviation industry – I get to interact with a lot of stakeholders from different geographies – diverse cultures and people who have been in the business for quite long , and it takes a lot of time and effort to convince them on a process or a technology product .
I have invested a lot of time in researching on how to help people adopt to technology trends and found ways to inspire and empower the stakeholders to adopt to the new technology solutions . I generally share success stories helping them connect to them .
Whilst my storytelling , I always keep an eye on the feedback shared by the participants – which I will use to visualize the current problem and define a state of solution that can help them accomplish their goals .
Application
One of the examples I can relate to is during the implementation of a CRM system for my organization where I have used storytelling as a tool to discuss on the system changes that were coming up . It was an exciting time for all of us as we were on the journey to a streamlined process .
I have used the issue to impact logic to explain the benefits of this new system , my emphasis was on the value addition and the unique features . From being a rigid organization to transforming into a dynamic business unit I emphasized on the roles of all the key stakeholders and the values they bring into the table .
Insight & Approach
While I was discussing about the impact of new system in day to day life , I told all the participants how our current process is having a lot of slippages leading us to lose potential business opportunities . Having told them the story of how the implementation of this new system will help them boost their business and help them derive higher revenues is something that has helped us well .
The entire conversation with all the stakeholders was highly productive and they went on to the drawing board again to reengineer their processes before going through a new process .
Sometimes a small story can do a lot of good .

Our customer is an automobile company and the challenge is to develop a software tool / service that tests the Artificial Intelligence ( AI ) Software that makes the car more autonomous . For example , there would be a software to test Tesla ’s Autopilot feature and tell how good / bad it is doing . We are trying to do something similar that is in line with our customer ’s expectations . We are a team of 6 and the allocated time for the project is 6 months . With the learning launches that take place alongside the incremental software development activity during the 6 month time period , we will focus on trying to uncover what our customer appreciates and what needs more work in order to improve a certain functionality offered by the software tool .
Selection
We are going to go ahead with the learning launch tool in order to quickly engage with the customer and test our key customer assumptions . Learning launch is a fast and inexpensive experiment that allows us to test assumptions , ideas and prototypes .
Application
Learning Launch 0.1 : Prior to engaging with the customer , we developed a prototype of our software tool and had our ‘ Learning Launch 0.1 ’ event one month into the project . Although all the internal functionalities of the prototype was n’t yet ready , the User Interface ( UI ) of the prototype in fact was quite advanced , and with this UI we were able to showcase the various offerings of the software tool . After a comprehensive demonstration of the prototype , we let the customer experiment with the prototype by navigating through the UI of the prototype on the computer screen . Through this hands - on exercise , the customer got a look and feel of the prototype ( and in a sense what the eventual end product would be like ) and this tested our assumption about how easy it is to use the tool and how the tool provides various metrics ( example : The accuracy of the Artificial Intelligence Software is 81 % ) that the customer expects . Broadly speaking , this tested the assumption that our understanding of what the tool should offer is in line with customer expectations .
Learning Launch 0.2 : About 4 months into the project , the first version of our end product ( software tool ) was ready . In order to perform more iterations on our end product based on customer feedback , we had our ‘ Learning Launch 0.2 ’ event . Here , similar to ‘ Learning Launch 0.1 ’ the customer was able to use the software tool , get a good look and feel of it and also got to play around with some sample data we had made available . This sample data consisted of various images that one would see while driving on the road . The software tool would rate the performance of the Artificial Intelligence ( AI ) Software ( example : Tesla ’s autopilot ) and provide feedback on how good the AI software is in detecting objects such as pedestrians , other cars , trucks , traffic signs etc . , that were present in the sample image data . This tested our assumption that the software tool is robust and in fact made use of data varied in both quality and
quantity in order to test the AI software system . We also asked our customer to participate in a survey along with us . This survey consisted of questions such as which functionalities of the software tool needed more work ? , which functionalities were highly mature ? , did the team need any additional resources to complete the project within the 6 - month time period ? And any additional comments if any .
Insight
By applying the learning launch tool , our team identified our assumptions and designed launches to test these assumptions . From the first learning launch , we got feedback on the user experience ( UX ) of the software tool and it was pointed out to us that this experience could in fact be improved by not throwing in a lot of information at the computer screen , but rather allowing the user the option to see advanced information . From the second learning launch , we learned that speed of the tool ( how fast it responds to the user ) could be improved . We also learned that the customer was happy with the variety of data that was used to test the AI system . Going further , our team will review the mentioned insight .
Approach
The reviewed insight will be incorporated in our next learning launch : ‘ Learning Launch 0.3 ’ . This learning launch is expected to happen before the 6 - month time period ends . The incorporation of insight is in progress and is quite significant as the next launch comes before a full rollout of our end product . ‘ Learning Launch 0.3 ’ will reflect insight gained , progress made , and come closer to a robust and compelling software engineering solution for our customer .

Challenge and selection
I teach at the Faculty of Engineering of the Pesto Pizza and one of the challenges is to train future research students , as well as to develop the research skills of the students . At the Beescoop a system of formative research was implemented through three programs . The first program involves students from the first to the third cycle in which research habits are developed . The second program involves from the 4th to the 7th cycle where scientific thought is developed in the selected courses of the specialty . Finally , program III from the 8th to the 10th cycle in which contact and visibility of the research is achieved through the final development of the research work and its publication in various congresses and academic events .
Storytelling or the creation of stories is a tool that connects from the beginning with the student and inspires creativity and is one of the educational techniques that allows teachers and students to learn and innovate . A story will impact differently on each student , as said in the previous paragraph at the University we train student researchers through a system of formative research so that they through creativity , research and the use of technologies can provide solutions to the problems of their community . Many of these students to begin to develop their formative research work have to identify a real problem and most of them begin with a question : what problem can I solve and investigate ? and this is where storytelling is applied to identify themselves and create meaning through a story , inspire them to connect in the story , identify with the character , link the context by determining the problems in their family or social environment and propose solutions using knowledge and applying technologies .
Application
I have a story that I always use to connect and inspire young people to begin their formative research work . It is the story of Jack Andraka , a young man who experienced firsthand the pain of watching a family friend die , whom he loved as if he were his uncle in less than 3 months of pancreatic cancer . But he decided that his death was not going to be in vain and at just 14 years old , he promised himself that he would fight to change things .
He began his research by reading dozens of scientific articles about pancreatic cancer . Trying to find a solution that would improve his diagnosis , he was lucky , because most of the studies he needed to read had been posted online for free by the American medical authorities . After researching and investigating the subject , he asked himself the following question .
- Why are we so bad at diagnosing pancreatic cancer ?
- It was because " modern medicine " today uses " very old techniques " that are inaccurate and fail many times and that each test costs $ 800 .
He continued with more research using Google 's search for nanotubes and cancer biochemistry , aided by free online scientific journals ( publicly accessible ) .
He then began thinking of ways to detect and prevent cancer growth before the cancer cells become invasive .
199 scientists from various institutions rejected Jack because of his young age , only one of whom , Dr. Anirban Maitra of the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine , agreed to lend him some of his time in the middle of an interview where he questioned him about cancer and his project .
The result of this project was a graduated - rod diagnostic test for pancreatic cancer using a new panel sensor , similar to diabetes test strips .
Its protocol was 168 times faster , 26,000 times cheaper , and 400 times more accurate than the usual , routine procedure for diagnosing pancreatic cancer . Jack Andraka 's dream had become a reality .
Insight & Approach
This true story had a great impact and inspired many of the young students to start their research work when they do not know where to start . This research work is very important because it is part of the university 's formative research system . One of the cases that became a reality was that of a student in the Systems Engineering career who raised the problem of learning the native Quechua language in children of 5 years old , she asked herself : how could the learning of this language be improved by making use of the technologies ?
She proposed the solution of her project using a mobile device , the use of RA augmented reality and 3D software so that mobile devices can both project an image of the animals and objects , as well as the pronunciation of the native Quechua language so that the children can improve their learning in the gardens of urban areas .
This worked very well and this technique was implemented in the course of scientific research methodology that is part of program II of the formative research system , as part of the class sessions to inspire more young people to develop and propose creative and innovative solutions to solve the problems that afflict a community or society .
Another very important tool that should also be implemented in this system is visualization , because in this way you have the concept and the clearest ideas about the problem and the possible solution you want to implement . Sometimes it takes only a small story to inspire a whole new generation of future researchers and great scientists who are going to give practical and viable solutions to the problems of our society , using appropriate tools and methodologies such as Design Thinking , I feel that we can all contribute and generate a little knowledge to change and improve the world we live in .
Thank you .

Challenge and selection :
The first tool I select was Story Telling . Storytelling is a means for sharing and interpreting
experiences . ... Storytelling can be used as a method to teach ethics , values and cultural norms and differences . Learning is most effective when it takes place in social environments that provide authentic social cues about how knowledge is to be applied . I use this theory often with my customers and clients . I think Story Telling is a fundamental part of every brand . It helps us to understand each other and it also helps you to connect with customer differently . i think this tool connects to the emotions , the character and the values of people .
Application :
I will start with a good story which have a conflict and emotional connection . I will tell a good story with its essence and simply which has logic . My larger purpose is to make difference between solving a problem and making a cause .
As businessman i would tell Who ’s Evernote ’s protagonist ? You are . What ’s your challenge ? You ’re life ’s disorganized . And that ’s what Evernote helps you with . Could it be any clearer ? Hardly – “ a second brain ”
My Stories will be designed for the audience . Firstly , i will see who are my audience are , and where are they come from . I know people are getting tired of powerpoint and statictics . so i will make my story a clear sequence of events which moves the story from the beginning to end .. The last thing will be the reflection or the questions that are unanswered . I will end the suspenses and the end .
I am from a developing country . I started my business from zero . I did n’t have any opportunity . To sell my products i went to the areas and asked people what is there demand ? First I started my business only with 60 dollars . I did n’t have any intension to make profit in the first time , my object was to get the market . i sold things in cheaper price . Now i am trying harder to get a good opportunity from the big buyers . Stories are all about knowing the tensions what we can do .
Insight and approach
I ’ve learned from the excersice that story telling is a great way for digital marketing . It makes our connection with the leaders strategically simple , it gives color in strategy and life in character and plot . I learned that storytelling is important to leadership in tomorrow ’s work . It is a compelling tool to learn about , to find out about and to understand . If i can create tension then i can create a place where people want to get involved because they want to have that debate and that conversation .
Since I discovered that the most valuable aspect is the shared insights and learning , next time I would use the storytelling 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

During a pitch to a Financial Services client , the team was unable to create a create a slides deck that looked meaningful from the client ’s perspective and would attract the client for further conversation about our consulting offerings and how we could help them transform their IT Vertical to keep pace with the future growth of the company given that the company went through a larger merger recently .
Selection : To create an interactive presentation that resonated with the client , we selected the storytelling tool . We selected the tool to create a movie - like scenario where the movie reveals itself in an engaging , yet sequential manner . It also because we understood that creating our pitch like a story that unfolds at every turn will help us have an interactive discussion where we are helping the client with their problem rather than one - sided conversation where we are trying to sell something .
Application : I along with a team of 3 first understood the current requirements of the clients , the challenges that they were currently facing and their aspirations for the future . Taking all those inputs along with secondary research data , we created a strawman for our presentation that ran like a tale that needed to be told . After the strawman , we create individual parts of the deck reinforcing that part of the story in detail . We filled the slides with information collected thus far with our approach . We also tried to show visually how the future IT Vertical of the company would look like using references , best practices , etc . We kept our complete deck as pictorial as possible as images and videos are easier to relate than words . This helped us in creating an engaging interaction with the clients and getting the contract for Organizational Transformation Consulting .
Insights : Storytelling tool is extremely useful when you have a diverse audience to present to with limited information on them as individuals as everyone loves a good story . It enables us to create an immersive experience with the people we are presenting or interacting with , where you are viewed as a subject matter expert who understands them rather than a salesman with solutions .
Approach : Next I would like to combine storytelling with mind mapping , to present the As - Is analysis on my present or future projects . The combination will not only help to reveal the patterns found in the analysis crudely but in a way , which makes the client feels that we have become a part of them , we understand their constraints and would do a justice while proposing the needed solution .

Visualization Tool
Challenge
After more than 20 years working for large corporations , I have decided to take on the challenge and the opportunity to reinvent myself as an entrepreneur . Luckily , a few weeks after I left my previous job I met a college professor who was looking to build a startup but had not had the time to develop it into a working business . I offered to help and we got started on our early stage startup ( code name : “ The Box ” ) .
It has been an exhilarating time , doing research on problems we both have encountered and are eager to solve . We have very different backgrounds , so we needed to create common ground so we could communicate effectively and efficiently in order to build trust and commitment to our newly found mission together .
Selection
Previously , I understood visualization as a creative exercise that consists of creating a realistic mental image of the future one desires in order to facilitate its realization . However , the Visualization tool for Design Thinking is quite different as it consists of using visual artifacts to express concepts , ideas and relationships in order to bring them forward in a way that words can not .
My cofounder and I quickly learned that we were having trouble understanding each other because we would use terms that mean different things depending on the context . We soon figured out that by making sketches and drawings we could reach mutual understanding much faster whenever we got stuck . Thus , we intuitively adopted the Visualization tool and made good use of it for our purposes .
Application
We started working on “ The Box ” as an ecommerce marketplace for subscription - based shopping , as we both knew many young entrepreneurs who are having trouble retaining their current customers and thought it would be a solution to their problem . We drew up many boxes and circles to represent all of the kinds of sellers we were thinking about , and by collecting them into a Venn Diagram we were able to make a preliminary segmentation in order to pick customers for ethnographic interviews : we selected lifestyle products with high purchase frequency .
Once we had a better grip of the pain points and jobs to be done that our customers are facing , we used drawings to generate ideas of services , marketplaces and platforms that could help solve the problem . At the moment , we are in conversations with a UX designer to build a
working model of our service ( not yet a prototype ) , based on these hand - drawn figures that describe the high - level steps for sellers and buyers :
We also got a bit ahead of ourselves and went ahead and drew lots of flywheels and virtuous cycles to represent potential growth models we should consider in order to accelerate growth . Visualization is our favorite innovation tool !
Insight
I learned that in many cases verbal communication ( face to face speech or written messages ) falls short when one is trying to simplify a concept that is complex or based on intricate relationships between basic ideas . On the other hand , using simple visualizations can help to transmit and receive messages in a more direct and clear way , even if the drawings are of very low quality from and aesthetic sense .
A key factor that makes visualization so helpful is that it makes metaphors like the “ flywheel , ” “ cycles ” and “ platforms ” easier to process intellectually because the relationship is evident at a glance . This may sound trivial but in the high - speed high - pressure world of startups it creates great efficiency and focus .
Additionally , sharing drawings and sketches helps to build teamwork as it allows one to peek into each other ’s mind . It is fun to use it that way .
Approach
Next time I begin any kind of business project I will make sure to apply visualization as soon and as often as possible . To improve the quality of my visual communication skills I plan to read Dan Roam ’s books on the subject .

Challenge & Selection
Storytelling is a great tool and an integral aspect of being a good leader . Whether you ’re coaching your project team , representing your team and their projects to executive stakeholders , or communicating with external and internal customers you often achieve success through the stories you tell . Here are some reasons why stories matter for leading project teams , and why I use it all the time :
1 . Coaching project team 2 . Pitching new projects 3 . Making executive - level presentations 4 . Creating project team brand
Application
The good news here is this : Everyone loves a story . We just have to find a way to tell ours . One effective storyteller mode is drawing on our experience . For example , an experienced IT contractor once told me that you work with the same people every place you go . Their faces change . Their names change , the place changes . But they ’re basically the same people . This story taught me to approach people and situations based on my experience of dealing with similar people and situations in the past .
Here 's chalking some points how I use it :
1 . Speak from experience .
2 . Practice my stories and solicit feedback from a trusted advisor , mentor , team member , manager ,
friend , etc . , before I tell it my teammates .
3 . Use my retrospectives and postmortems as source materials for my stories .
4 . Stay well informed . Read industry blogs , business books and talk to others in my industry .
Telling an effective story can come from outside our experience . If we do n’t have the experience , find a similar one from reading business books or industry blog posts and we ’ve our story with “ I read how one of our fellow project managers solved a similar problem . ”
Once my team was struggling to resolve a user story as it was complicated and none of the team members had experience of resolving the same . As the deadline was approaching team morale went downwards as they could n’t find any solution .
Insight & Approach
I used the same trick of applying industry blog post story for maintaining the equilibrium . As the team found that everybody can be in a soup but what best they can do they can try to find the best way out , team got motivated again .
Sometimes a little story can have great impact . When you can share stories about your experience , and encourage your team members to do so as well , everyone can find a solution in the war stories . It ’s not about having a team story hour at each team stand up . It ’s about being able to tell the story of a previous projects or share similar story from industry blogs .
This course helped me to see this as a more effective tool in a new way . It will definitely help me to prepare ahead and think of stories that will assist me in presenting my ideas and best illuminate them .

The organization I work in as a lower level manager is focused on laboratory - based research and development , with a diverse pool of individual contributors . One of the main challenges to our business is to increase our speed of delivery while maintaining high quality standards for reports and outcomes . As a solution , we would like to implement an Agile framework of project management to achieve this increase in speed to delivery . In our current work , projects are planned without input from the individual contributors and tasks are assigned to one or two people each , with little collaboration . When collaboration or additional resources are required , is can slow down the project while priorities are rearranged and work is scheduled . All our contributors have more than one project , and managers are burdened with balancing each person ’s time and tracking projects to determine if priorities need to be shifted . Agile Scrum was identified as a new system that would speed up the work process , allow everyone to have input into project planning and thereby improve outcomes , and enable managers to establish clear priorities . Therefore , in this case , the product being designed is our project management system .
The Learning Launch Tool and Its Application :
We first used a ‘ Learning Launch ’ of Agile Scrum , in a very simplified way , to help the team learn the new project system and to get feedback from them about how this framework might be an effective solution . We chose this design tool because we needed the results of an experiment to know whether the team members could work quickly with Scrum tools . A team of individuals was chosen for an internal 3 - week project that had very well - defined , straightforward goals , that would be the highest priority for each person . I identified several key assumptions : the team would embrace the project visualization tools , work would go faster due to clarity around task assignments and priorities , communication would be better through daily meetings and Scrum Master facilitation . During the project and after it was finished , we used weekly retrospectives to get feedback about how the team felt about this new project framework . The work had been done rapidly and the team members were able to improve their work quality by collaborating . Generally , Learning Launch was considered a success and the team was overall happy to continue working with that framework .
Learning Launch 2 :
Next , based on insights from the first Learning Launch , we used the new project system in a second round with the same group of individuals , on a longer ( 3 - month ) project . This second experiment involved interaction with a customer , and less concrete goals . The work required a broader set of research skills and techniques , and more responsibility for project planning was placed on team members . The improvements made from the first round were modifications to task visualization techniques and identification of new Scrum Masters . Although the project was somewhat successful , the feedback from the team was less positive this time . For example , some team members did not like having responsibility for determining project goals and some thought the project could have moved faster . Overall , the team felt that having one project leader to define goals instead of team - defined goals would have been more efficient .
Learning Launch 3 :
As a result , the next test of our new project framework with this group was a project in which the customer provided very well - defined goals . The timeline of the project was longer , but more predictable due to the type of work being done . In this experiment , the roles of product owner and Scrum Master were assigned to different team members . Unfortunately , the third experiment was considered a failure , because of personality conflicts caused by this change in roles . Competitiveness and lack of trust in each other led to low team energy and poor communication . Due to the group tensions , the third experiment with the Scrum framework had to be aborted in favor of traditional individual project work assignments . It was clear that , despite the defined goals provided in this iteration and experience in the project system , the team had failed to adopt the Agile philosophy .
Insight and Approach :
The use of Learning Launches was very effective for understanding how the Agile framework could be used in our organization . We took feedback from all the team members during and after the ‘ project framework ’ experiments and executed a plan to develop the implementation of Scrum with that team . Unfortunately , in successive Learning Launches , the solution seemed to be less and less successful . In retrospect , there was an unidentified assumption that was not addressed in successive development steps . It was assumed that individual contributors would understand and accept the Agile philosophy immediately after learning and practicing the mechanics of the Scrum framework . The design of the second Learning Launch did not take into account that such an assumption was not validated by feedback . However , when that assumption proved again to be false in the third Learning Launch , more effort was placed on training our team members and integrating the Agile philosophy into their jobs . Considering this experience in the context of Design Thinking , it showed the importance of listening very carefully to customer feedback from the test launches . It showed that , in general , Design Thinking requires maintaining an open mind to identify all assumptions . An alternative development approach would have been to implement additional training and education before starting a new Learning Launch . I believe it would also have been more useful to implement a Learning Launch with a different group of people , to have data from a more diverse group .

Challenge
I am responsible for my department ’s innovation and patent development program , as well as being the main consultant for the admin area . My responsibility in to ensure that my department with 275 employees meets the corporate targets for employee participation and idea implementation . Likewise , I have to ensure that the subject matter experts from sister departments under the same admin area follow the same innovation requirements . At a department level , the biggest challenge is to follow up with idea owners on the implementation of their approved ideas . On the other hand , at the admin area level with 6800 + employees , the challenge is to ensure that other innovation subject matter experts ( SMEs ) align with my innovation program and follow best practices . There is a total of 10 operating departments within our admin area . In theory , corporate key performance measures are to be achieved by end of year but do to our outstanding performance over the past 3 years , our management is requesting these same targets to be achieved by mid - year . In order to achieve these goals , we have launched an awareness plan which will promote and cultivate the innovation culture from our employees . This will ensure that employee idea submission goals are attained way ahead of schedule in order to focus all efforts in idea implementation for the remaining of the calendar year .
Selection
The department goals are personally managed by me but the admin area goals require closer follow up and execution by admin area innovation subject matter experts . I have put together an awareness session calendar where in collaboration with each of the operating department SMEs , we will host awareness / brainstorming sessions to promote innovation and idea generation . We began in the month of February and we will continue to conduct two sessions per operating department within a calendar year .
Application
As part of the first awareness / brainstorming session , we focus on the innovation process . We cover the subjects of idea generation , advocacy and screening , experimentation , implementation and commercialization . We have a corporate innovation portal for open idea submission . Our employees struggle with structuring their conceptual ideas and often do n’t follow through and end up abandoning an idea that can potentially generate huge benefits to the organization . Our first session focuses on the innovation process as a structured strategy that ensures that the innovation owner / team idealizes an innovation and runs with it until it is successfully implemented .
The second session focuses on patent development and commercialization for internal or external deployment . In our admin area , we built a partnership with the corporate technology
School Age Care : Company General Use
oversight department to further enhance the patent contributions within the corporate patent development program . We focus on protecting the corporate ’s intellectual property by earning exclusive rights to inventions as well as by recognizing employees with patents that have been successfully filed , granted and commercialized . Our awareness sessions focus on the patent filing / granting process as well as patentability and commercialization requirements .
Insight
What we have learned as part of these awareness / brainstorming sessions is that employees often underestimate their potential to think without reservations . It was analyzed that employees often set their own barriers when it comes to idea generation . Their self - confidence often gets in their way to expand their thinking . With our steps of innovation process , we are aiding our employees with a structured strategy that can add potential to their free - thinking ability and can generate ideas much easier and with a higher self - confidence approach . Our awareness program has been in place for 3 months now and we have seen significant improvement in employee idea submission ( 25 % increase ) , and patent development ( 30 % increase ) . This will provide us with a strong platform as we will focus next on idea implementation and commercialization .
Approach
Based on the results so far obtained from these sessions , the operating department innovation SME team agrees that our plan has made a significant positive impact to our innovation and patent development programs . We will continue with our first round of sessions and will think of ways to improve it for the upcoming calendar year . In the meantime , we will continue to work to promote idea implementation and commercialization as we will commit to work with our sister operating departments in the upcoming months to build the momentum required for ideas to be successfully implemented and potentially commercialized .

In theory , corporate key performance measures are to be achieved by end of year but do to our outstanding performance over the past 3 years , our management is requesting these same targets to be achieved by mid - year . In order to achieve these goals , we have launched an awareness plan which will promote and cultivate the innovation culture from our employees . This will ensure that employee idea submission goals are attained way ahead of schedule in order to focus all efforts in idea implementation for the remaining of the calendar year .
Selection
The department goals are personally managed by me but the admin area goals require closer follow up and execution by admin area innovation subject matter experts . I have put together an awareness session calendar where in collaboration with each of the operating department SMEs , we will host awareness / brainstorming sessions to promote innovation and idea generation . We began in the month of February and we will continue to conduct two sessions per operating department within a calendar year .
Application
As part of the first awareness / brainstorming session , we focus on the innovation process . We cover the subjects of idea generation , advocacy and screening , experimentation , implementation and commercialization . We have a corporate innovation portal for open idea submission . Our employees struggle with structuring their conceptual ideas and often do n’t follow through and end up abandoning an idea that can potentially generate huge benefits to the organization . Our first session focuses on the innovation process as a structured strategy that ensures that the innovation owner / team idealizes an innovation and runs with it until it is successfully implemented .
The second session focuses on patent development and commercialization for internal or external deployment . In our admin area , we built a partnership with the corporate technology
School Age Care : Company General Use
oversight department to further enhance the patent contributions within the corporate patent development program . We focus on protecting the corporate ’s intellectual property by earning exclusive rights to inventions as well as by recognizing employees with patents that have been successfully filed , granted and commercialized . Our awareness sessions focus on the patent filing / granting process as well as patentability and commercialization requirements .
Insight
What we have learned as part of these awareness / brainstorming sessions is that employees often underestimate their potential to think without reservations . It was analyzed that employees often set their own barriers when it comes to idea generation . Their self - confidence often gets in their way to expand their thinking . With our steps of innovation process , we are aiding our employees with a structured strategy that can add potential to their free - thinking ability and can generate ideas much easier and with a higher self - confidence approach . Our awareness program has been in place for 3 months now and we have seen significant improvement in employee idea submission ( 25 % increase ) , and patent development ( 30 % increase ) . This will provide us with a strong platform as we will focus next on idea implementation and commercialization .
Approach
Based on the results so far obtained from these sessions , the operating department innovation SME team agrees that our plan has made a significant positive impact to our innovation and patent development programs . We will continue with our first round of sessions and will think of ways to improve it for the upcoming calendar year . In the meantime , we will continue to work to promote idea implementation and commercialization as we will commit to work with our sister operating departments in the upcoming months to build the momentum required for ideas to be successfully implemented and potentially commercialized .

Challenge Storytelling is the process of using fact and narrative to communicate something to your audience . Some stories are factual , and some are embellished or improvised in order to better explain the core message .
Storytelling is an art form as old as time and has a place in every culture and society . Why ? Because stories are a universal language that everyone — regardless of dialect , hometown , or heritage — can understand . Stories stimulate imagination and passion and create a sense of community among listeners and tellers alike .
Telling a story is like painting a picture with words . While everyone can tell a story , certain people fine - tune their storytelling skills and become a storyteller on behalf of their organization , brand , or business . You might ’ve heard of these folks — we typically refer to them as marketers , content writers , or PR professionals .
I love to listen to stories . I get to learn a lot of things from them . Better storytelling can help in better communicating with a person which would eventually help to understand someone in a much more efficient way .
Selection
Every member of an organization can tell a story . But before we get into the how , let ’s talk about why we tell stories — as a society , culture , and economy . There are a variety of reasons to tell stories — to sell , entertain , educate or brag .
Stories help solidify abstract concepts and simplify complex messages . Taking a lofty , non - tangible concept and relating it using concrete ideas is one of the biggest strengths of storytelling in business .
Take Apple , for example . Computers and smartphones are a pretty complicated topic to describe to your typical consumer . Using real - life stories , they ’ve been able to describe exactly how their products benefit users … instead of relying on technical jargon that very few customers would understand .
Stories make us human , and the same goes for brands . When brands get transparent and authentic , it brings them down - to - earth and helps consumers connect with them and the people behind them .
Application
I use the storytelling tool much often . I love UI / UX design . So whenever there a problem comes up it ’s very crucial to do the background research , take interviews of users , explain your insights to stakeholders . So I use stories to make an impact , and help them understand things better . It also helped me to create empathy and understand users ’ emotions and frustrations so that I can design a better product for them .
I also link filmmaking . Particularly I am interested in cinematography and scriptwriting . So as we know and the great movie starts with a great script . So when a movie project is started , I start brainstorming and as soon I come up with some good idea , it ’s my job to explain my thoughts to my team very clearly keeping in mind the budget constraints .

Insight & Approach
It is really a great tool . It helped me explain myself and my thoughts to others in a much more effective way . I got to learn that good stories are-
● Entertaining : Good stories keep the reader engaged and interested in what ’s coming next .
● Educational : Good stories spark curiosity and add to the reader ’s knowledge bank .
● Universal : Good stories are relatable to all readers and tap into emotions and experiences that most people undergo .
● Organized : Good stories follow a succinct organization that helps convey the core message and helps readers absorb it .
● Memorable : Whether through inspiration , scandal , or humour , good stories stick in the reader ’s mind .
Also , I learned that , for a better storytelling approach , carry out the following processes-
1 . Know your audience
2 . Define your core message
3 . Decide what kind of story you ’re telling
4 . Establish your call - to - action
5 . Choose your story medium

Shery Tavormina
Challenge As a systems engineer , I am involved through the design , development , and deployment of new aviation systems and services deployed . For the design process itself , I look for alternative , innovative ways to address the problem faced by users in the aviation domain . Design Thinking adds value by providing new techniques to extract operational shortfalls ( issues ) and needs ( requirements ) from the user community , which includes air traffic controllers , safety and maintenance personnel , and pilots .
My current project is modernizing how information is shared and displayed to air traffic controllers . Today , small pieces of paper capture a flight ’s information , which includes destination and path taken to get to the destination . The intent is to digitize this information , so electronic data can be easily displayed and shared among air traffic controllers .
The challenge faced was to find innovative ways to solicit inputs on the problem space , gain consensus on the problem , and identify possible solutions to address the problem with a very diverse group of users . Traditionally , I would use surveys , interviews , loosely structured brainstorm sessions as a means to quickly collect inputs regarding issues from the user community , who have different experiences , age , and more . While these methods are valid ways to solicit user input , these traditional methods were becoming very routine and we were having trouble soliciting diverse input and getting our users to fully engage with us . I was concerned that my team was not going to be able to accurately articulate the problem space , which we needed to be correct before having any discussions around the solution space . I needed a more creative means to solicit user input , and Design Thinking afforded that opportunity .
Selection
Design Thinking provides a more methodological and objective way for problem solving . Storytelling is one of the available tools within the Design Thinking toolkit , where a narrative ( story ) serves as a means to communicate and share experiences in a very impactful way . This tool was selected to help facilitate a discussion around the problem space . My team and I thought that Storytelling would be helpful in framing the problem space and a strategy for solution , as described in Module 2 . We wanted members of our user community to tell about their experiences and problems that they faced .
This facilitation technique was helpful in that everyone was able to share their personal stories , events they experienced , and lessons learned with the wider group . They shared what happened and who was involved . These personal anecdotes were impactful and help build trust among the team . It helped my team understand the operational shortfalls with how data is exchanged and displayed to air traffic controllers .
Application During the problem framing discussion , we wanted to explore the types of problems , the magnitude of the problems , and the reason why the(se ) issue(s ) was unacceptable . We created a scenario that
sequentially laid out steps of what plane at an airport would be doing before departure . This scenario served to guide our problem framing discussions and provide some context for our users , without trying to limit the conversations too .
We asked our users to provide stories of the issues they faced ( specifically any issues related to missing data or getting data too late ) , in the context of how they would control the plane at their airport ( the scenario ) . The users shared stories about how information would be missed communicated during high stressed situations . For example , large , popup , thunderstorms occur frequently in Chicago , Il , and one controller from that area shared a story of how he had to write down on paper reminder notes to help him keep track of which flights needed a reroute ( to avoid the storm ) or which ones wanted to depart later after the storm had passed . They expressed how having information printed and written down was very ineffective . And they shared how there could have been a big operational safety issue when his papers accidently were shuffled and moved , because he had lost track of the flights he was working with .
These personal stories included nuggets of the issues that the users faced , and we were able to capture these issues . Others in the discussion were able to react to each other ’s stories , empathize with one another , and even coalesce around what they all felt were major issues that needed to be addressed .
Insight The user community was a broad representation of air traffic controllers , with a range of experience . Storytelling was a very valuable technique to use with my users because not all airports operate similarly , so it was important for each member to listen and understand the experiences and pain points that others face . It was very important that we had a pretty broad representation of the user community to have a successful problem framing discussion . If we had a limited set of users , all with similar experiences for the discussion , my team and I would have had had a very limited understanding of the real issues , biasing any future discussions and limiting the solution space . Reflecting upon that meeting , I also think trust is another key component to Design Thinking . It is necessary for everyone to feel comfortable sharing their perspectives with one another . As stated in the videos for the course , empathy is key , and it is important to listen , regardless if you are a user sharing your perspectives or an engineer who is looking to develop a solution for the problem . In these discussions , I recognized that I was not an expert on air traffic control , and that my role in these discussions was to recognize and elevate the inputs to the problem space provided by everyone , only interjecting if I thought there was an opportunity to dive further into the problem .
Storytelling is not a traditional systems engineering method for soliciting input on the problem or solution space . Yet , it is critical for systems engineers to understand this from the intended users ’ perspective . Design Thinking provides alternative methods for how to have these types of conversations . Storytelling was a way to really engage with the user community , have a lively conversation , and generate more meaningful feedback . In my job today , I am continuously looking for opportunities to leverage these tools that will help with idea generation .
Approach If I had to do this all over again , I may try Visualization or even mixing Storytelling with Visualization . We had introduced a scenario in our Storytelling discussion as a means to provide some context ( e.g. , given
X scenario , what problems do you face ) . Visualization would be another way to express the problem space , where our users could draw / map out their negative experiences in a storyboard . We could have had a visual tool that outlined a journey map , and then collected inputs on what did not work . We did not have any visual aids during the discussion , and only sticky notes to capture the issues gleaned from the Storytelling exercises .

CHALLENGE & Preference from among choices :
Storytelling happens a strange technique that I make use of repeatedly . I work with open to attack groups , human beings with enlightening disadvantage , older person native of country , and human beings who exist economically weak . Many of these people exist downtrodden and dysfunctional fashionable each part of their lives ; they need expected authorize , and inspiration happen individual way commotion so . I give a lot of opportunity " hole people up " and judgment habit to motivate ruling class to create positive changes fashionable their lives . When I handle elders , we state each one stories for many reasons . They having to do with frequently lonely , and they concerning very happy to share memories from their endure me in consideration of connect , and they visualize giving these experiences as a habit of education and/or leaving a legacy . I share made - up story from my growth with my developmentally injured customer to help them conceive a level of freedom , and I utilize their recommendation fashionable the context of my news to decide their goals . We in addition to use fiction to better understand their interests and concept processes . I make use of this knowledge to suggest alternative strategy to help them achieve better independence fashionable the extent of their lives where they feel they exist deficient .

I was difficult to make clear to a social service instrumentality the benefits of attractive a more client - concentrate approach , containing , and in particular , of observing all as a unique beast and speak to a formal gathering their individual needs first and foremost , when we happen discuss policy changes . In this place non - understanding , rigorous foundation , the instrumentality was enchant by a " agreement culture , " and allure customer were failing . I exist in addition to emphasizing in what way or manner , even though it seems extreme or lacking the standard , meeting the needs of individual human being can have a certain affect everyone . Following in position or time a divine act , I shared a tale about running an crisis shelter . Everyone happen achievement fantastically well , except that individual woman , whose stress exist bring about her to get completely demonstrative about feelings . I could narrate she desired attention , so I asserted her " Queen for an hour " fashionable my head . I arrive with her and created her a container for
drinking of coffee as she speak . Her female person who has borne children , who happen following her , had continue to live a very smart person aneurysm and was very scared that she choose fall or face another crisis while at the shelter all the while the accident .

Challenge
A Kindergarten ’s Manager in México wanted to know about the willing to enroll ( and the potential local demand ) for his new Elementary school project with the same brand , philosophy and educational method at his area . This project attempts to be an extension of the existing educational offering . The school has been performing for 24 years only at the Kindergarten educational stage with a well differentiated product . On the other hand , the Elementary school project has been significantly encouraged by 2 types of parents : the ones that are requesting for a continued school for their kids ( because it is near or convenient for their families ) , and those parents who had experienced good results with their kids on their kindergarten first years . Now that School has been highly recommended by parents , Marketing costs are fewer than ever because of the powerful word of mouth at the city . Now the challenge is to demonstrate or eliminate the hypothesis and assumptions on the consumers making decision process ( specifically parents of 3rd kindergarten students ) that need to make a decision before February 2016 between existing ( and potential ) local Elementary Schools . With this , we could have great information to foresee if the Elementary School project ( specifically on a new location ) will be feasible for this Educational Institution .
Selection
The tool I applied with the “ On hand potential customers ” group ( 19 parents that are already clients of the kindergarten school ) was Mind Mapping . It provided a clear understanding of the key factors on consumers making decision process for this segment . It clearly revealed which factors are strongly playing before choosing a school and how lifestyle , expectations and new educational techniques are influencing their decisions . The information obtained after this session and reflection also let us identify patterns and enabled us to build 3 Personas as prototypes of future clients ( target ) for Elementary School project . I also used this tool as a feasible way to problem solving . The minimum statistical sample for these purposes is not achievable with little time , low budget and few resources .
Application & Insight
I started the session with soft questions to answer under a Likert scale like : From 5 to 1 ( 5 is the most likely ) As a parent , how deep are you involved with the next School decision for your kids ? how hard it is for you ( and your family ) to analyze all options and get into a conclusion ? I realized that most of them are highly involved but getting crazy when getting to conclusions . Then , I asked mothers and fathers to write down how was a week in their lives as parents , specifically regarding with their kid ’s rising and education process : routines , activities , tricks , compensation systems and everything else . I felt parents venting their stress while they laughed from time to time from themselves ! Soon I got a deeper insight on how lifestyles are driving certain issues for education
and which key factors must be included in that new Elementary school offering . When 19 life maps were ready , I asked people to write aside one word to describe what can be improved about that . Then , they must write down ( again with one word ) what made them feel more upset about it . It was obvious that parents were facing certain challenges and troubles when rising and educating their kids . One assumption is that some of these issues can be resolved with a new educational method to practice in both places : at school and at home . After that , I asked parents to write down on a post - it the objectively best solution they can give to every described issue ( trying to get to ‘ What Wows ’ , either is on their hands or not ) . I found certain “ best solutions ” ( now key factors ) in common ; these items were absolutely influencing their decisions for Elementary School : professors mastery , monthly clear objectives , kid ’s development skills , experiential education , personalized education , ambient , learning materials , learning systems , human development , sports and culture , values , schedule , facility conditions , infrastructure , policies , congruence of thought , communication , feedback , advising and educational psychology system ( Please note is a Mexican school ) . By the way , these key factors can be clustered into 3 big bundles : operational excellence , customer intimacy and performance superiority , according to Wharton ’s School Marketing Leadership Theory , so New Elementary School Project can now leverage these key factors into their Marketing and communication strategy . I then found 3 client prototypes : 1 ) the ones who want to perpetuate their lifestyle and want some key relationships for their kids and a fair value elementary education 2 ) the ones that are genuinely involved in kid ’s development procuring new experiences and methods for better competences , and are willing to spend more time and money in it . 3 ) The ones that are involved but with less time to spend because of full- time work ; although they are seemingly “ away for hours ” , they give extra value to feedback and communication between family and school .
Approach
I must develop more visual support materials to find results easier than this way . I noticed people extended away the time session when they expressed their opinions and sometimes trying to justify why are they acting like this with their kids ( specifically at the “ upset ” word ) , when the session purpose was not to go deeper into justifications or feelings . Anyway , I felt this first shot productive !

Challenge and Selection
I often used the tool Visualization to be able to understand clearly the needs of our
clients / customers as well as what will be the expectations of our supervisors that will be needing in order to succeed on the promotion of the products we are launching . This tool makes us visualize more on how we can conduct a process flow with no flaws that would encounter . Well there are no perfect team or should I say a teamwork is a big factor in order to achieve what is the goal setting . Identifying weak spots and new opportunities will greatly affect the team and the production of the accounts we are handling . As what the video says , communication is important to be able to understand the needs and wants of our clients . Each member of the team encounters different kinds of clients and we experience how to handle them differently . Therefore , this tool will help us as we go along the procedure and production of the team .
Application
Our team is handling account opening and maintenance of all clients who are investing . The
company launches an issuance that will have to open over 3,ooo accounts in less than a month . In this manner , and in a short staff team , we have to conduct a series of practices that will have to visualized . From the way as to how we will receive a bulk of documents until how we will file all those accounts which we are going to opened . Number of accounts we will received , reviewed and opened is far different from what we usually do on our team . Therefore , we have to conduct series of trial and error in order to properly monitored each and every clients ’ accounts .
We tried to gather some help from the other team as we pilot launch the issuance of accounts .
We visualized by making a graph as to whom will the function be put on and how this will be like a factory set up that continuously work flawlessly . We still encounter some problems as this accounts can not be opened in less than a month . So there comes a backlog on the regularization of documents .
From then , before we conduct next quarter ’s issuance , we gather all the teams and tried to ask
them as to what is the weaknesses encounter during issuance and ask for their suggestions on how we can come up with a good process flow that will help everyone to work with no hindrances to encounter . We visualized it by using the traditional whiteboard graph and putting details like the point person per function , turnaround time of one account to another function . And time limit as to how many accounts can we accomplished in a day . In this sense , the next issuance is more rigid and simplified other than the previous one since we already determined what cause the problem .
Insight and Approach
I learned that it is important that every team member should cooperate and communicate in
order to determine one ’s weaknesses and provide suggestions that can contribute a lot with the production of the team . There should be a leader that will oversee the function of each members and
make sure that no one is leaving behind . This kind of approach will make it easier to properly managed not just our clients but also the staff of the team . In this way , it will not be that much tiring to do once the process floe has been managed .

Challenge
I am one among the five members of the operations club in my college . As one of the best performing clubs in the college over the previous years , we are expected to keep up the legacy . But due to this unprecedented COVID situation , all of us are stuck at home and are now required to work remotely . Our responsibilities as the office bearers of the club is to conduct and organize events for our junior batches ( 110 participants ) in the academic year . The minimum number of events that we conduct in a year in 5 . Now that we have no choice of one on one interaction with the students , we were forced to adapt to the situation and conduct the event virtually over a video conferencing platform .
Selection
Having undergone multiple brainstorming and mind - mapping sessions , we were at the final stages of discussion and decided on doing a learning launch to test the feasibility of conducting events online . The learning launch would give us feedback about our plan and allow us to iterate our ideas so as to make it a worthwhile and engaging experience for the participants . The learning launch tool is a testing process using a prototype and a small sample where we check if our assumptions were true or false .
Application
The learning launch process started with having discussion with our mentor . We enquired about the process and requested inputs from him . The topics discussed were about the duration of the events , how to ensure that the participants are actively engaging and learning from the event . The infrastructural roadblocks like drop in connectivity and other bandwidth related issues .
Followed by this , we started surveying a selected group of actual participants . We asked them about their preferred choice of video conferencing platform and how would they like the events to be conducted so that it is worth their time . Other inputs like the day of the week and the suitable time to conduct the event was also taken .
Next , we organized and conducted the event amongst ourselves and a few other participants who had no prior experience with using the video conferencing platform to see if they are able to participate and having an engaging experience during the entire process . We tested if the conference was able to handle the number of participants and the resources to be shared without any interferences . The feedback obtained was to make the conference more interactive by conducting polls and quizzes to keep the participants are actively involved so that they do n’t get distracted in between and engage in other activities because it is practically impossible to monitor each one of them individually .
Insights
By applying the learning launch tool , we were able to identify the gap in conducting the event online . Taking the feedback from the prototype we were able to redesign the whole process by now incorporating interactive activity among the participants by asking them to take a quiz in between the session and announcing the results . Giving the participants the opportunity to ask doubts and express their opinion ensured higher satisfaction amongst the participants . Also , keeping the event short ( 30 minutes ) helped us in conducting the event successfully by mitigating the issue of the participants getting carried away
Approach
Our team had to go through a lot of conflicts because of the clash of ideas and the shortage of time and of course the problems that comes with working remotely . At this stage , the learning launch tool is appropriate and the best way to test our assumptions and validate it . Keeping in mind the feedback and the insights we gained from our previous event , we used the learning launch tool at the final stage of all the remaining events before launching the event in a large scale to test its efficiency and success rate .

Learning Launch : a way to the natural solution .
Challenge
Despite my engineering background , through the past years I have been managing our family 's business , a large size camping and village resort in Tuscany . As a small company , owning flexible organisation and adaptable resources for internally producing products and objects , our goal has always been to reconnect people ( our customers , stakeholders ) with the natural environment we oughted to provide them during their stay with us . Therefore innovation travelled through the question " how might we provide a more natural touristic village experience , yet retaining a perception of comfort ? " .
Selection
The prototype gained its initial shape based on feedbacks provided by our customer base ( via questionnaires ): a small wooden structure with cotton tent , a small retreat for couples in the woods .
Natural materials and a smart yet simple design of the interiors .
The question had been articulated to a certain degree of refinement but we soon realised we were missing insights and , therefore , parts of the problem to address . We realised we had very small experience on the " Glamping " ( stands
for glamour , nature oriented ) business and decided to proceed based on
insights , not guesses that could build up presumptuous hypothesis . Having a dynamic organisation , where different hierarchical roles merged regularly
together to discuss about everyones ideas , we soon realised that the only way to gain profound understanding of the challenge was to let the stakeholders
speak for themselves . The option was here to set up a learning launch ,
allowing people to live the prototype , created in a single unit . A process that would have helped us gain more insights and prove our idea quickly and
cheaply .
Learning Launch : a way to the natural solution . 2
Application
Taking advantage of the aforementioned production flexibility we could
deploy , an " in season " ( that substantially means , for a cyclic business like camping , when selling is over ) learning launch was made to test the prototype
as early as possible : a tiny Safari Tent for 2 people was deployed in the village , made in just a couple of weeks . Customers were asked If they would
have liked to stay in the structure for a reduced price , at the same time
accepting to tell us more about their experience with the object . Personal interaction with these customers allowed us to completely re - design our
concept : we sat with them , had coffee with them , chatted as they personally showed us their needs for space , what they would have desired to find at they
arrival , where were problems with illumination missing or useless elements of equipment . In short , we got in our customers boots and , relevantly , they were
happy with us doing so . We had the chance to develop an understanding of the experience which led to the creation of a new prototype .
Insights
It was thanks to the application of the Learn Launching tool that we 've been
able to identify the major discrepancies between what we though would work
( based on previously derived insights ) and what actually worked ( what
wowed , precisely ) .
As a matter of fact , certain aspects of the original project have been preserved yet many others have been completely re - designed to meet our
customers needs . The tested assumptions showed us that the most valuable
characteristic of such an object was n't the expensive furniture , nor the
completely equipped kitchen but rather a requirement of privacy . Stakeholders
found privacy to be their most valuable need , even if not , sometimes , explicitly addresses .
Approach
Our team was n't , in this case , prepared to handle the full generation of new
products entirely based on design thinking principles . The learning launch
Learning Launch : a way to the natural solution . 3
technique helped us gaining insight and directions for future development for
the product .
The subsequents year learning launch of the product was indeed completely different : a few more units were integrated in the campings landscape ,
naturally merging with the surrounding nature . The feedbacks were , in this

These insights have proven to be of great importance to our organisation : since then they have been incorporated and exploited . Remarkably , they have
been used as core elements and tested ( with a very same second learning
launch experience ) for the development of other projects , including a Safari
Tent for larger families , a concept which revolved primarily on the idea of
comfort through privacy . The very interaction with stakeholders experience had been re - drawn from the first learning launch , allowing us to gain insights
not just on a distinct process , an isolated feature , but on a tool to build inside
a broader strategic thinking .

1 . Challenge : I am working as a sales and communications intern at my company
and my challenge is to reduce the customer complaints and increase our
customer service . Increasing the customer service and attending to customers
quickly with better solutions will imp[rove the sales for the company and to
retain the customers . This will also help in building the brand and generating
loyal customers . The project scope include the sales team which comprises of
6 employees and the whole of training team in some way because they
constitute to the major department of the company . My company teaches
coding to kids in the age group 7 - 17 online , and our customers are usually the
parents of these kids . Lack of proper internal communication has led to
delayed responses to the customers which in turn harm the revenue and
growth of the company .
2 . Selection : To solve this problem of lack of communication and to improve
customer service , I am choosing the learning launch tool of design thinking to
eradicate this problem and come up with better solutions . Learning launch will
help us in quickly testing an idea or prototype and come up with better results .
This will also help us in brainstorming all the ideas so see which one actually
works to its full potential .
3 . Application : While applying the learning launch , we first focused on the
structure/ execution of our internal communications network . We wanted to
see if we can modify our already existing communications network or do we
have to invest in a whole new network . This tested our assumption that the
flaw was in our existing mode of communication . We were using one software
which was not very effective in communicating with the team members . We
found out that there was a gap in communication between the training team
and the sales team . Thus , in the learning launch segment , both our teams went
through a 4 - 5 hours long session where we discussed about the expectations
of each team and found answers for the concerns generally raised by the
parents . We then shifted to a new software for internal communication where
every member of all the teams was part of and everyone had access to all the
data related to any customer . There was a one - day workshop conducted to
make us familiarise with the new software . The next time when we applied
learning launch techniques , it was to improve the transparency between both
the teams so that everyone knows the growth of any lead .
4 . Insight : By using the learning launch tool , we identified our assumptions and
then designed launches to test these assumptions . It helped in brainstorming
so many new ideas . Learning launch helped us in turning our doubts into truth .
We anticipated a result as to why there was a delay in responding to the
customers , and after using the learning launch technique , it made it clear . The
delay was because of lack of proper communicating channel and lack of
access to real time data . Moving forward now , we have understood our flaw
and both the teams are gon na review this night that we gained from this tool d
incorporate it not future launch designs .
5 . Approach : Looking at our problem , I think learning launch is the best tool for
both the teams to move forward and eradicate the problem which was lurking
before . Future launch designs will reflect the insight that we gained from this
launch . It will also show how far we have come in solving our problem and give
us more potential to carry out more such innovative design thinking tools and
activities .

Challenge
I have completed my Bachelor of Technology degree in Mechanical engineering recently and during the final semester we had to submit a major project . I got an idea for the project but the main challenge was to convince everyone on that idea . When you are working with a group it is very important that each and every member should be agreed on the same thing then only you can perform a group task perfectly . I had to convince everyone on that idea and also assign them their part . Everyone had their own ideas , I listen to each of them they were good but not up to mark so I decided we will go with my idea and now the challenge was to convince everyone .
Selection
It was very important to put the images of idea that was in my mind in front of them so I selected visualization tool . Visualization is something we use everywhere , whether we are aware of it or not , it allows us to think in a nonverbal way . It ’s basically anything that takes us beyond just using word or language alone . It ’s very easy to create a simple diagram , and most anyone can draw a stick figure , an arrow , a circle , a square . Putting down your ideas on paper by using some figures or diagrams will allow you to achieve a sense of agreement and consensus with people which is your main purpose in order to convince someone .
Application
First I tried to tell them my idea verbally but they raised question that why should we go with your idea and not ours . Then I took a pen and paper and first I draw a process map using lines , squares , rectangles and circles , it makes them visualize how we will go with the process and what we are going to proceed .
And I also created the image of our final product using some designing software and I showed to them , when they saw the image of final product in front of them then they started being convinced with my idea .
So what I basically did was I tried to present the visual image of idea that was in my mind in front of them in forms of pictures .
Insight and approach
By applying the visualization tool , I convinced my team mates to go with my ideas and also the creative part of my brain becomes more active . Now I will use visualization tool as well as other design tool in every challenge of my life because it makes the work agile and the probabilities of succeeding in work will increase . This tool helped me to connect my ideas with them more properly and accurately .
I am thinking of starting my business in future so I will say that visualization tool as well as other design thinking tool are going to help me a lot and will make things easier for me . It will help me to present my ideas in front of investors , partners , clients and everyone who are going to be the important part of my business , not only that , it will also help me to become more and more creative and choosing the best ideas out of all ideas .

The technique I used was a method to visualize or visualize a problem . A broader community of people could consider a problem space before seeking to find and describe potential solutions to the problem . I also use this approach for our clients , government departments trying to update their tasks , and offer their services to Our residents , enterprises , and non - citizens and implement technical advancements . In the process of identifying the distance , bounds , primary elements , and connections among elements to consider in the identification of pain points and opportunities for improvements or solutions , I used the technique of using a straw - man diagram of a problem field with a collection of questions or prompts for discussion .
Application :
I begin the process by making a problem domain man 's graphic . I would draw on some existing content to grasp the atmosphere to create the illustration of the individual . Operating or procedural records , instructional manuals , publicity materials , or other audit reports may be part of established materials . I perform informal interviews with 1 - 3 of the stakeholders , who serve as my crucial touchpoint on the project if the materials are not given .
If the condition is relevant , I will take the definition from previous studies to the ' front / back point . ' The front / back step strategy strengthens the idea that each service – including an internal business – is linked to consumers and the internal processes that require the industry to deliver the services . The structure that I always begin with includes a partner and chain supplier column on the left and a column on the right to define monitoring organizations , such as Congress , trade unions , activist groups , and other associations that may hinder how the organization performs . The stubble graph of Visio or the Internet is convenient to use with basic types and icons . Suppose the foreground / background view does not work . In that case , I generate another picture , either based on high - level process flow for the multiple stakeholders with swimming lanes or in a different style .
The members will be split into 4 participants , each representing another organization or sector of concern . Each party gets a copy of the straw man illustrations in poster form , in which they can personally write , or sticky notes . I am placing 3 questions , such as 1 ) What main elements do the graph lack ? 2 . What are you trying to change the graph to represent your problem area more accurately ? 3 ) What are your primary perspectives on the ties between the organizations in your issue area ? I send them about 30 minutes to address issues and to mark the picture . Then , in response to all three questions , I will have a paper from each party pointing out the poster 's markings . When a group reports , I document commonalities in each group 's observations , accompanied by other perspectives from the group discussions in an alternate copy of the graph . After the debate , I digitalize each party 's posters as an item , create a view that incorporates shared and fresh perspectives from the community debate , and then create an updated graph that includes their suggestions and suggestions for improvements that they accepted as a party .
Insight and Approach :
What I 've learned from the work with multiple groups is that while it is essential to improve the understanding of the problem they are trying to solve , shared perspectives and mutual learning is the most crucial part of the work , particularly the revisions in the graph that integrate their input . The realistic gives a different gathering of partners a point of convergence for a conversation that permits them to share their viewpoints and form experiences into potential main drivers of their issues . While they could make the realistic from a clear record in a communitarian way , beginning with a misrepresentation kicks off the discussion . They can rapidly distinguish where they are in the practical – or if they are missing – and can more rapidly increase new experiences about connections between essential substances instead of setting aside some effort to recognize them . They can acknowledge factors likewise in the problematic space . It makes a difference to distinguish what they do not have the foggiest idea ; in what territories they have to get data or information to give the qualities to the factors .
Since I found that mutual perspectives and learning were the most essential element , the next time , I used visualization as a point of departure for a series of insightful design practices . With its collective input , the updated image may then be a reference guide for the rest of the work .

After the debate , I digitalize each party 's posters as an item , create a view that incorporates shared and fresh perspectives from the community debate , and then create an updated graph that includes their suggestions and suggestions for improvements that they accepted as a party .
Insight and Approach :
What I 've learned from the work with multiple groups is that while it is essential to improve the understanding of the problem they are trying to solve , shared perspectives and mutual learning is the most crucial part of the work , particularly the revisions in the graph that integrate their input . The realistic gives a different gathering of partners a point of convergence for a conversation that permits them to share their viewpoints and form experiences into potential main drivers of their issues . While they could make the realistic from a clear record in a communitarian way , beginning with a misrepresentation kicks off the discussion . They can rapidly distinguish where they are in the practical – or if they are missing – and can more rapidly increase new experiences about connections between essential substances instead of setting aside some effort to recognize them . They can acknowledge factors likewise in the problematic space . It makes a difference to distinguish what they do not have the foggiest idea ; in what territories they have to get data or information to give the qualities to the factors .
Since I found that mutual perspectives and learning were the most essential element , the next time , I used visualization as a point of departure for a series of insightful design practices . With its collective input , the updated image may then be a reference guide for the rest of the work .

Challenge & selection- mind mapping is a important tool in design thinking . It is a brainstorming tool for get out the invitations ideas from the mind . Mind mapping is a one of the powerful tool for design thinker . It ’s also important to select the most flexible approach for best designs . I learn from this is that , your mind is working 24/7 . So always think behind the box , more think more invocation in your ideas . So keep thinking always .
Application- Mind mapping is useful for adding a new innovative thinking in current design for making a some different from others . Mind mapping is more creative tool for design thinking . I understand through this session is that , mind mapping is engaging your mind to make a creative design or making a good pattern for design .
Insight- insight the design their more creative solutions for your design . Mind mapping is important for basic four questions for make creative or innovative design . What is , what if , what wows , what work . In all four question the thinking behind the out of box is necessary .
Approach- in design thinking we using mind mapping for capture the thinking of customer , therefore we satisfy the customer need or requirements and improve our business in design thinking . It ’s common way to understand the current situation according to our requirement . This all I understand in my simple language .

Challenge
I start a online business and my challenge is to improve the cash flow of my business . I start my online business from my home and I want to introduce my brand in social media . I spent a lot of money for ads in my social media . I have limited resources so I should manage the cash flow of my business . So that ’s why I take several courses from coursera to improve my business skills .
Selection
My employees have already several design thinking , so I should make a decision of their ideas to be a new program for my business . Take an experiment to test an idea and prototype .
Application
This is our first learning launch , we focus on the execution of our online sales . By looking at a modern lifestyle and globalization need of the customer , rather than just market standard . We prepare our new idea with some experience .
Reflection- Storytelling
Challenge and Selection
Storytelling is a great tool that I use for increase my communication skill . Storytelling makes my audiences understand the story I convey clearly . Listeners will see the whole story and be carried away with the narrative I convey . Often I lonely and are so happy to share stories of my lives with our audiences to connect and I find meaning in sharing these experiences as a form of teaching and/or legacy , in a sense . I would also be more often practice directly with colleagues and ask them to give feedback on the progress of my skills .
Application
I want to teach each member of my team to learn how to use storytelling techniques to improve their communication skills so that my team members can communicate effectively in their work .
Insight & Approach
This course gives me some experience to improve my communication skill in presenting my ideas .
Reflection - Visualization
Visualization helps us understand the concept of our plan . Without visualization will complicate us in understanding the concepts of plan and how to solve the problem . The visualization will give us a big picture of the plan process so we can know the details of our plans . Visualizations can make the desires of each member converge with a plan that has been created . We will use visualizations in presenting the results of our work to stakeholders so that they can also understand our business concept

Challenge & Selection :
First of all , let me tell you that I am a graphic designer . My challenge as a designer was to think the design ideas . It would take lot more time to come to the decision about the design idea like how the design should be , what color should I use , which font would be best etc . So , to solve this problem I start practicing the tool called visualization . It is a tool which enables a third eye that can look up what is perfect for my project .
Application :
I start the process by questioning myself different types of question about the project . Based on that basic questions I visualize a very raw design . Then I took a pencil and a paper to draw that basic design . Then I try to modify the things according to my client ’s requirements . I just not only draw a single design but also draw a couple more design based on the same concept . Then I go to my computer and try to make those designs in the graphic softwares . When it comes to coloring I often try to alternate the colors in the different designs and check which one suits well . The visualization tool is so effective that it instantly gives me a basic idea about my design which would take lot more time in the earlier . So that way I applied this tool .
Insight & Approach :
The tool helps me make my work more easy and comfortable . The power of visualize is fabulous . It makes your inner soul to speak . It connects both heart and soul . I will definitely use this tool again and again . It really boosts up my workability . I am still learning about this tool . I would use the visualization activity as a starting point for a series of design thinking activities . Thank you .

Innovation is technological and cultural evolution ; the never - ending struggle to solve simple and complex problems for the benefit of the individual . This individual can be a consumer looking for a quicker and more efficient product . It can be a patient lying in a hospital bed . Or it can be the manager of an engineering company trying to find an edge over his competitors .
Innovation never happens inside a vacuum . In some cases , innovation is a response to a specific problem . In others , it ’s driven by a creative imagination , someone who looks at a product or a process and thinks , “ We could be doing this better . ” To put it another way , innovation requires a catalyst , and one of the most robust catalysts is design .

The word " innovation " once had an older , historical and quite different meaning . From the 1400s through the 1600s , prior to early European settlement of the Americas from 1492 , the concept of " innovation " was pejorative – the term was an early - modern synonym for " rebellion " , " revolt " and " heresy " .

In the 1800 it was the social reformers turn to be accused of innovating . People promoting capitalism saw Socialism as an innovation and spent a lot of energy working against it . For instance Goldwin Smith saw the spread of social innovations as an attack on money and banks . These social innovations were socialism , communism , nationalization ,
cooperative associations . Thus contrary to what many people believe , social innovation appeared much earlier than technological innovation .
In the 1900s the concept Innovation did not become popular until after the second- world war . This is the point in time when people started to talk about technological product innovation and tie it to the idea of economic growth and competitive advantage . Joseph Schumpeter ( 1883–1950 ) is often credited for being the one who made the term popular and he contributed greatly to the study of innovation economics ,
In business and in economics , innovation can become a catalyst for growth . With rapid advancements in transportation and communications over the past few decades , the old - world concepts of factor endowments and comparative advantage which focused on an area 's unique inputs are outmoded for today 's global economy . Schumpeter argued that industries must incessantly revolutionize the economic structure from within , that is innovate with better or more effective processes and products , as well as market distribution , such as the connection from the craft shop to factory . He famously asserted that " creative destruction is the essential fact about capitalism . Entrepreneurs continuously look for better ways to satisfy their consumer base with improved quality , durability , service and price which come to fruition in innovation with advanced technologies and organizational strategies .

1 . Challenge
I am student of Management and willing to start up an entrepreneurship business with my some friends . Now we got a huge opportunity to gain our knowledge and make all the knowledge process in our brain and help us making our portfolio and start primarily in online platform for free . But our main challenge was to organize all the knowledge and information in mind as the quantity of them were too much and we were in a quick learning process . All the idea with proper marketing , management , organizing , planning and all other information seem to be almost the same and hard to analyze for any better idea or remember them . We really needed to link those groups of ideas and data besides storing them in a structural and decorative way .
2 . Selection
As we needed the method of decorate and structure all of our knowledge , I selected the mind mapping tool for that . It was a tool for mapping all the potential idea innovatively and in a way that any data can be visualize to see the better picture and new way that is not possible to easily recognize or generate . From the following video I got more useful idea about mind mapping and it was the best tool to counter my challenge .
https://d3c33hcgiwev3.cloudfront.net/yhzsTGFxEeWsVBKLSpTUPw.processed/full/360p/index.mp4?Expires=1596153600&Sign ature = UzY0doKF3Rfigxhrtmks7dpRBTNOAoruzLI3GEM4pjd0uz7Fz8 ~ G- LFbx1CwR8Sxl9WMyiRlZvrvSP~9z8Zucq8k4DDlerDXpfgADT7ml2UQ - QvdkDvkzlKx6bwLX3yAdhS4 ~ qW ~ QIYRCs7VmYsoB- QKgmKWYqu0zI0No - HY60o_&Key - Pair - Id = APKAJLTNE6QMUY6HBC5A
3 . Application
As time flows , I applied and made my friends follow the mind mapping technique to map all the knowledge in both physically and in brain . Which new knowledge was acquired , we tend to apply the tools to understand the complex topic , decorating them structurally and making many scenarios to apply those in future for anything . The mind mapping was worth of quickly gaining the needed information we seek more quickly and in a systematic way .
4 . Insight
The effectiveness of mind mapping was notable to anyone who used it in my team . We used to talk about it often when any problem occurred and at the time of brainstorming . I personally got the insight that it can be used for multiple purposes in our other unrelated problems or situations to get better solving approach . Of course for our innovation practice in startup project , it is containing much more benefits and we sometimes over use this tool as we have a great impression for that . That ’s our only problem now to deal with . But mind mapping is still using in the most of our projects to take better view of the problem and best creative solutions .
5 . Approach
All of the tools besides the mind mapping are vital for our project of knowledge driven startup projects . But I want to apply the mind mapping for more innovation decision making rather than all type of analysis . Visualization and learning launch are also essential for our works . I want to apply visualization tool more besides the mind mapping tool for bring the best efficient decision
and innovation . Overall the reflection of the lesson of the course helped me and my friends a lot and we are trying to use those in our personal , academic and professional life .

But I want to apply the mind mapping for more innovation decision making rather than all type of analysis . Visualization and learning launch are also essential for our works . I want to apply visualization tool more besides the mind mapping tool for bring the best efficient decision
and innovation . Overall the reflection of the lesson of the course helped me and my friends a lot and we are trying to use those in our personal , academic and professional life .

Francisco Parra
Challenge
I am a Business major student and , recently , one of my projects was to entrepreneur an online business . My team and I decided to develop the ideas around a pet shop that sells accessorizes and costumes for dogs and cats designed by us . On last October we started the meetings to organize the activities ; our challenge was to start operations by December 2020 , and that our products had to be successfully sold , we had to present results at our project manager . The resources that we had were limited ( financial specifically ) so we wanted to be sure that our investments were not to be wasted . Therefore we focused on looking for the products that would gave us more profits considering that our products were going to be manufactured by us , we needed to know the combination of products that would gave us the highest profits .
Selection
Since we wanted to know the successfully products , all of us realized that the only way was to started sealing different accessorizes in small quantities . As a result of our reflections , we decided that using the learning launch tool to make different experiments by sell small combination products .
Application
For the first learning launch the products that we put on sale were all designed and manufactured by our team . At first we had some messages asking for them and their prices but only a couple of them were reflected in request . Even though our sales were not a lot , we face difficulties on the shipment costs ; sometimes it was more expensive than the product price . The learning launch let us discovered that this issue was an important impediment for people to order . As a small business some of the directions of delivery were too far and the costs were expensive to afford them .
For the second learning launch , we decided to offer less designs but on more sizes , so on the manufacturing area we focused on specific designs and guaranty the quality that we wanted to maintain . We saw a solution for the problem with de shipment costs by increase the price of each product ; with this strategy we can apportion that cost on all the products : no matter where you live , shipment is free .
Insight
By applying this tool we discovered not only the correct mix of products that give us the highest amount of profit , it also showed other different problems on areas such as delivery , manufacturing and quality .
We had troubles with the result of the experiments , even though it helped us , some of us still believed that some of our products were the best idea to sell , even though the costumers did n’t had the same opinion . It was hard to accept that sometimes the ideas that you appreciate the most are not the profitable ones . The hardest part was to opening our minds to make changes to
our original plan ; the results made us realized that it was too early to develop many of our ideas . The business is steel in the initial phase , we decided to keep operating with the second experiment information , and it is working well until today . Soon we want to put in practice another experiment with brand new products to expand the offer to our customers .
Approach
We were able to obtain relevant information as a result ; it can be said that we choose the correct tool . The success of the application of the tool depends not only on developing experiments , but also making a mind preparing to appreciate and evaluate the results objectively . Therefore , practice will make us use the tool efficiently and makes us feel more comfortable developing experiments .

Challenge & Selection
One of the most powerful and at the same time controversial tool of Design Thinking is Storytelling . Why it is powerful ? Well , for so many years ’ different stories , legends had been using to charm and attract attention of any kind of public . In addition , even now , interesting story would grab people ’s minds easily . A business world is not an exception . Currently , when most of the deals are singed after chain of negotiations , presentations , conference calls and brainstorms the power of constructive and useful storytelling is sensed more than ever . On the other hand , storytelling is an art . Art of cinematography even : with main theme twisted around the necessary result . For my day - to - day routine I use Storytelling to present sometimes boring and hard to understand information for my internal clients . Understanding the process Storytelling supports me to make all my work very useful and meaningful . Taking into consideration , that perception level of verbal communication for people sometimes can be lower vs Visual communication , so , whilst using storytelling tool you must follow the reaction of listeners
Application
How am I getting ready for story creating process ? I am not a writer , journalist or someone who easily implements many compounds into presentation . No . However , I am the one who knows the topic in details . I use the following rules :
- Content is the base . Only after understanding the main theme , I am able to play around with the approach of delivery . I often use the Pyramid of objectives and Ideas- I observe those from the most important to the least
- Research – truly crucial for successful story . I usually go deeper into the analysis to pull out hidden stones . On that stage is better to have at your disposer more details which subsequently would help you to
- Even though storytelling is an absolute in verbal communication , there is no restriction to use suitable visualization . And this is why Storytelling a spacious room for creativity and invention of your own universe of information sharing
- Never forget that story must sell . Here I go to the structure : fun story at the beginning , drama in theme announcement , magic in the process of solving all possible issues and emotion ending
- Your target audience is measure of your success . I need to know beforehand who will be my listeners – what they need to receive from me . To what analysis level I should go to make them , interested .
When the story is ready , I need to find out how to sell it . First , I use my emotions . Human
beings are ready to pay for qualified stories . Moreover , all of us make decisions in 90 % of
time unconsciously , and only after , we are trying to explain this using some form of a logic .
So , just numbers or simple facts are not enough to sell . Then , call to action takes part in the
process that includes : building the relationship with listeners , motivate them , affect their
beliefs , explain , listen and answer all the questions
Insight & Approach
What have I realized after using thinking design technics in my routine is getting feedback and be flexible . Sometimes it is not easy to stick to the plan that used at the beginning . The audience sometimes knows more that I predicted , so it is important to have plan or scenario B.
I would not change the approach of story inventing actually , I ’d rather work with delivery process as I have realized that I need to feel audience ’s mood and adjust to their needs at the very moment

Change & Selection
I think that visualization is a good tool for forming equal views in groups . My challenge was to get a group of 6 together and shape it into a team , which has the same understanding about several tasks we had to solve . One of these tasks was to transform an old canteen into a new , modern coworking space which is used by employees and also workers who usually work with their hands on tools . In the future , the coworking space should promote networking between the employees and be a meeting point for transferring know - how between people . For this task our CEO chose me and 6 other employees from very different departments and hierarchy levels . So at the beginning , everyone had different goals and views which had to be combined to one single Question . So I had to use a visualization method to get the same understanding for everyone . When someone explains an issue to a group , often there is a different understanding of the case , because everyone receives the words differently . With the usage of visualization tools , the people use ears and eyes to understand the issue .
Application
I used a flipchart with several areas on it for visualization . At first , I started with the task our CEO send to us and wrote it , summarized into three words onto the center of the chart . After everyone had explained their understanding of the task to the group , I began to write down the points allocated around the center task and connected it with the center task . After that I circled the same words in everyone ’s statement so the commonalities got visible . These were the keywords everyone understood in the task . And with them we were able to formulate a task we all agreed on .
Insight & Approach
After this experience I learned that visualization is an efficient tool that helps to create a common understanding in groups and I will use it for further situations . I really noticed , when people see the opinions from the rest of the group they will form a common statement and be more purposeful .
I wo n’t do something different in that case , but nevertheless I will try a lot of other tools which design thinking offers .

1 . Challenge
One of the projects we recently had at school was about finding new business opportunities for
second life batteries . For this project , a car manufacturer was our main stakeholder , the one
looking for repurposing the batteries and generate a new business model . I come from a design
background and had little or not knowledge at all in regards of second life batteries , how do they
work , how is the batteries business nor the manufacturer business .
2 . Selection
The visualization tool helped me to understand better the context . Reunited with two different
employees from the car manufacturer , I use the visualization tool to help me see the big picture .
In other words , how is the current business , who are their clients , what are their values , among
other questions . This process helped me to define the scope and find the relationship between
the batteries and the company . In addition , since some of the terms are really engineering ones
that I had not knowledge , the visualization tool made the communication easier , so mechanical
and electrical matter could be described in visual modes .
3 . Application
I start by asking some basic information regarding the company and why they considered this
new project . Right after I began with one battery drawing in the middle and start asking questions
regarding the topic . I asked the participants to draw their ideas and concepts of the answer . A lot
of arrows were used to help to see the relation between all those elements .
One of the most feared things about using the visualization tool with the stakeholders is the
classic “ I do not know how to draw ” . As soon as I started to explain and take out markers , the
face of the stakeholders described everything . One even mentioned , “ Do n’t judge me for my
drawing skills ” . But it was just a matter of time for them to loosen up and stop caring about
drawing beautiful or not .
Finally , we came out with a great visualization that explains the whole idea of the project . In other
words , what we know , what we do not know and what we need to know . The scope was more
clearly defined and grounded .
4 . Insight
I got a lot of insights from this session . First of all , the whole project was clearer , for both sides ,
the stakeholders and myself . From both sides the in - depth knowledge obtained was very
valuable . Additionally it helped to be all in the same page of what the challenge was . Since , the
whole visualization was co - created . This visualization can also be further used to explain the
challenge to different people within the company . It turned out that this tool really made us step
out of the box and see from the outside .
5 . Approach
I believe the use of the visualization tool went the right way . Nevertheless , there is always space
for improvement . One of the things I would have done differently is including more people into
the tool . Secondly , maybe make a second visualization , something more “ clear and pleasant to
see ” right after all the discussion and feedback . Then , the second visualization can be better
utilised for other purposes .
1 . Approach : Describe what you might do differently next time -- applying the same tool you selected or a different one -- and the reason(s ) why .

1 . Challenge I am a head of travel agency ’s marketing department and my team ’s challenge is to launch a new online booking tool in the company ’s main webpage in order to sattisfy our customers needs for fast and effective booking tool . My task also covers to reduce sales staff costs and marketing spendings on different media campaigns . This project is supported by the marketing team and local IT staff , which is ready to support me with any technical matters . The product has to be launched as soon as possible to give better service to our demanding customers and therefore it ’s a really big challenge for all of us . 2 . Selection So far our team has followed traditional approach in planing new projects but in this case we ’re ready for design thinking tool and specifically the learning launch tool because of the timing . Therefore we ’re open for an experiment which could be quickly tested and prototyped . 3 . Application At the very beginning we made three hypothesis :
1 ) our customers demand an online booking tool which will fasten the booking
process ;
2 ) our staff resources could work more effectively ; 3 ) marketing expenses might be cutted .
We started with a survey distributed through social media where put several questions to get more knowledge about our customers needs , expectations and problematic everyday situations they ’re overgoing . We addressed different age groups , sorted various preferances and tested the actual demand . Then we focused on the sales staff – group meetings , individual interviews and the IT team capability . We had an emotional and creative brainstorming which led to assumption that at first we have to try an experiment with online engine just for one business unit which will be fast and effective trial before the big deal . This experiment might be easy to launch and test . It will give us a fast response about the clients satifaction and any technical problems if any . And finally we discussed the most effective online marketing tasks and possibilities to cut marketing expenses . As our team is small we ’ve learned it in a short time and defined our tasks and priorities in the new online business environment . Also this hypothesis will be tested during the experiment with new online booking engine . 4 . Insight We ’re convinced that the learning launch tool has a good potential to test our earlier made assumptions , at the same time getting the truth about our clients needs and our company ’s potential and further workflow . We ’re proud that our boss highly evaluates the new way of business thinking and encorages the team for new challenges . We ’re open for that . 5 . Approach
Our project is still in progress and so far we ’re purely sattisfied with the results of the learning launch tool . It ’s easy to use and it has a great touch of creativity so needed for marketing ideas . It allows us to get better knowledge of our clients , employees and it allows experiments to get the truth ! After this first trial of Design Thinking method we ’re strongly motivated to try also other tools like Visualization , Story - telling and Mind - mapping as well .

### Input: Final Assignment - Learning Launch
1 . Challenge I am a head of travel agency ’s marketing department and my team ’s challenge is to launch a new online booking tool in the company ’s main webpage in order to sattisfy our customers needs for fast and effective booking tool . My task also covers to reduce sales staff costs and marketing spendings on different media campaigns . This project is supported by the marketing team and local IT staff , which is ready to support me with any technical matters . The product has to be launched as soon as possible to give better service to our demanding customers and therefore it ’s a really big challenge for all of us . 2 . Selection So far our team has followed traditional approach in planing new projects but in this case we ’re ready for design thinking tool and specifically the learning launch tool because of the timing . Therefore we ’re open for an experiment which could be quickly tested and prototyped . 3 . Application At the very beginning we made three hypothesis :
1 ) our customers demand an online booking tool which will fasten the booking
process ;
2 ) our staff resources could work more effectively ; 3 ) marketing expenses might be cutted .
We started with a survey distributed through social media where put several questions to get more knowledge about our customers needs , expectations and problematic everyday situations they ’re overgoing . We addressed different age groups , sorted various preferances and tested the actual demand . Then we focused on the sales staff – group meetings , individual interviews and the IT team capability . We had an emotional and creative brainstorming which led to assumption that at first we have to try an experiment with online engine just for one business unit which will be fast and effective trial before the big deal . This experiment might be easy to launch and test . It will give us a fast response about the clients satifaction and any technical problems if any . And finally we discussed the most effective online marketing tasks and possibilities to cut marketing expenses . As our team is small we ’ve learned it in a short time and defined our tasks and priorities in the new online business environment . Also this hypothesis will be tested during the experiment with new online booking engine . 4 . Insight We ’re convinced that the learning launch tool has a good potential to test our earlier made assumptions , at the same time getting the truth about our clients needs and our company ’s potential and further workflow . We ’re proud that our boss highly evaluates the new way of business thinking and encorages the team for new challenges . We ’re open for that . 5 . Approach
Our project is still in progress and so far we ’re purely sattisfied with the results of the learning launch tool . It ’s easy to use and it has a great touch of creativity so needed for marketing ideas . It allows us to get better knowledge of our clients , employees and it allows experiments to get the truth ! After this first trial of Design Thinking method we ’re strongly motivated to try also other tools like Visualization , Story - telling and Mind - mapping as well .

Challenge I am a senior undergraduate student in Human - Computer Interaction class . It is a study
to understand the way people behave and feel towards computer or machine . Then , I ’ve got a term project to make use of data that were given by the professor . The data are transactions of user ’s using websites and their basic profile such as their duration , number of pages viewed , income , region , household size , etc . From my point of view , it is difficult to consider what can be done with the 21 columns and up to 300,000 rows of data . There is literally massive of amount of combination of columns to make . At the end , I need to figure out “ what to tell ? ” because I need to give a presentation of this data . Selection The tools that seems to be appropriate at this moment is storytelling . It is a tool to
help connect a speaker and an audience together . An information that a speaker was trying to share with the audience is depend on the audience itself . To know the audience is a key to communicate better . That was a first rule of storytelling . I think if we know who the audience are , I will be able to try to empathize them and know what they need to know from this data . Then I will be able to communicate with my audience smoothly .
Since , I am studying in Human - Computer Interaction class , I think storytelling can
contribute to the rules of designing and improving user ’s interface well because they both involve thoughts about the users ( audiences ) . Application I will explain how I used the storytelling tools to improve my term project . I used two
rules from it . Firstly , I use the first rule of storytelling which is “ know your audience ” or in this case understand the users . I then think who the possible users are . I came up with 3 groups : companies ’ owner , their customer , their potential investors . All of it might need different kinds of information since they may have different questions . So , I decide to do a little research of what they need to know and their objectives .
After the I did , I built interactable visualizations on a website with personalization
features and recommendations that depends on the users ’ type . At this point , I did not forget to sequence the visualization . For example , for companies ’ owner , after I analyze data , I found a solution to a question they asked , “ What can we do to increase a number user ? ” . I knew
that at this company , the number of their transaction in a product they have is not significantly different from their competitors . The number that is quietly different is from other products they do n’t have . So , my suggestion is to expand the products line . I plan to start by asking them the same question and then continue with a graph showing their sales transactions of their single product as I explain it . After that , I added their competitor ’s sales transaction in this product . Finally , I added the amount of product of other ’s transaction from other companies to make them see the different and told my suggestion as an answer to the question I asked in the beginning . If I show this simultaneously , it would be harder to explain .
Insight After using the storytelling process , it leads to a new perspective of how I see the
problems . It is quietly useful to use with the design concept I ’ve been learning : to know your users/ to understand users . The visualizations I built are not one - size fit all problems . Thus , things that I learnt from this is there are many users in the real world and their needs might be different . In web - design , although they teach universal design , I believe if a personalization page can be created , it will generate better communication . Approach This tool is really fit for web designer / developers . It can help to think about users
more . Then the web - designer can create a perfect personalized website or visualization for their users depend on what they need . It is also useful to use in a presentation to help communicating the complex idea such as strategy ( stated in the video ) because it helps to sequence what to tell . I will totally use this as I am determined to be a we d designer in my future .

Challenge I am a manager responsible for the program and project management practice at a consulting company that sells professional services around the globe . In the last few months , I have been facing a challenge to improve and reshape our current offerings in order to increase business sales and to create a distinctive position in the global consulting marketplace . The scope of these offerings includes mainly business transformational programs through tech - solutions . For example , the end - to - end enterprise software implementation . Our team of expert tech - consultants are focus on test new ideas to confirm the key assumptions that our consulting leaders previously recommended to our line - of - service . Selection In order to attend completely our challenge and to become more agile , we are ready to use the learning launch tool of design thinking framework . In general , the learning launch tool is a kind of experiment that tests new ideas in real business environments . The main purpose is to get the truth to confirm or dis - confirm our key business assumptions . Application At the beginning , we focused on the organization of our new ideas . The consultants did a small benchmarking to meet the solutions already offered in the market and to check the fit - level of innovation from each ones . This tested our assumption that our competitors are offering similar services to cover the program and project management demands . Then , we went through workshop sessions with consultants from other areas to get new thoughts about our traditional offerings and to understand the lessons that our organization learned on the previous assignments . This tested our assumption that other consulting practices at the same organization also want to continuous improve their way to provide professional services . Finally , we focused on the execution of different tests in some on - going programs and projects . In this case , we encouraged the team to work in an agile management approach to measure the impact on the performance of their routine activities . This tested our assumption that its possible improve our work with small changes of the team ’s mind - set . Insight By applying the learning launch tool , we confirmed some key assumptions and dis- confirmed other ones . For us this new experiment was very rich in several aspects .
Normally in this type of challenge , we need to create a business plan to set the assumptions and to define the return of investments . The possibility to discuss many hypothesis going through the unknown breaks down some business paradigms , resulting in a new path to test the business ideas effectively . Until this moment , the results exceeds our initial expectations . On the other hand , we need to know that the design - thinking framework is much more than a learning launch application , actually is a wide universe of concepts and tools to explore and get agreement . Approach I believe there are excellent tools in the design thinking that should improve and help even more the solution of our business challenges . One example might be a mind mapping to help an organization to looking for patterns during a data collect and analytics . However , for that challenge we worked on , the learning launch tool seems to be the appropriate tool to address our goals .

MY COUSIN SISTER
Challenge & Selection
In my short life , there are many experiences that could qualify as life-
changing . Every new experience was , at one time or another , the first experience .
For good or bad , each instance changed the course that my life has taken . Story
telling is a great tool . Stories tend to be based on experiential learning , but
learning from an experience is not automatic . Stories are effective educational
tools because listeners become engaged and therefore remember . Storytelling can
be seen as a foundation for learning and teaching . Storytelling taps into existing
knowledge and creates bridges both culturally and motivationally toward a
solution . That why I chose story telling as my tool .
Application
I have a story about using story telling . I met my cousin sister . Always she
used to be very happy . Her name is Anita and was 15 years old . They were a well
rounded perfect family of three . When I had gone to her house , I found that Anita
was not happy in her life . She seemed to be as though something is missing and
fearful of something . So I used my story telling tool .
Insight & Approach
I started to notice her closely why she is not happy . I identified the reason .
That was a right time for me to open up with my story . I told Anita about my most
transformative experience .
I told her how I was fearful and thinking when my mother was pregnant .
Victor is someone my parents often call a happy accident . At that time , I was 10
years old and both of my parents had shown more love for me . We were what you
would call a well - rounded , perfect family of three . We neatly fit into the perfect
classification in nearly every way . We did n't realize what we were missing until
the moment that my younger brother first opened his striking blue eyes .
In truth , I resented the fact that I would be having a sibling . Nothing
needed to be added to our family , and my mother , already 38 at the time , was
considered high risk because of her age . The pregnancy itself was full of
complications that sent the straight course of my life into rollercoaster - like loops
that my 10 - year - old mind had a hard time comprehending . But now , I can see how
forging through those loops helped me to roll with the punches that life inevitably
brings .
The day Victor was born , my mother took me with her to the hospital
rather than my father . Sitting with her through every contraction , I gained a new
respect for just how powerful and strong a woman could be in what might be
considered their weakest moment . Holding her hand and feeding her ice chips , I
gained a connection with my mother that I did n't realize we were lacking .
The moment my new baby brother Victor came into this world , I realized
two things nearly simultaneously . First , you do n't realize how much you need
something until it 's sitting in your lap . Second , my life after this moment would
never be the same . The moment he curled his chubby little finger around mine , I
understood the words " happy accident " completely . Victor 's arrival was a life-
altering event that caused me to see the world through new eyes .
So I told this story to my cousin sister , it had a big impact . It had changed
her life and also changed a part of her as a person . Anita became very happy and
prepared herself to face the arrival of her new brother or sister . A little story can
do a lot of good . Story telling tool had really helped a lot to me . It is empowering
me , as it effectively conveys ideas and with practice , it is able to demonstrate the
potential of human accomplishment . So I would use the same tool for the next
time also .

Challenge & Selection
I find storytelling the one of the most effective ways in conveying ideas to a large group of people without having much information about them individually . It works best in a neutral group . My challenge was to communicate the product ’s features to prospective customers who had known the brand before . I selected story telling as the option as the design thinking activity .
Application
I wanted to create a story that narrates the journey of individual , wherein I targeted people in the age bracket of 15 - 25 creating the backdrop of their school / college life and placing the product in the center of this experience . This way I believe we could create a feeling of attachment to the product and would be able to communicate the features in a better manner than explicitly creating a traditional advertisement . This way also helps in creating a connection to real experience of our customers in the target age group than portraying our position in the market as only a commercial product company .
Insight & Approach
The approach to go about the whole storytelling process was conceptualized based on the learnings developed in this course . The setting of the basic design and structure helped in overall formulation of the whole story and product placement .
We developed some major insights about our customer choices & preferences based on feedback we noted through the story telling method . We as a business came to a conclusion that to create an association with our brand or product , we need to evoke an emotional response from our customers than sampling citing product features . This helps in creating brand loyalty for our product as the customer relates to the experiences mentioned in the story .
In hindsight I ’m happy with the decision of enrolling in the design course as it helped me create a framework to work in .

I wanted to create a story that narrates the journey of individual , wherein I targeted people in the age bracket of 15 - 25 creating the backdrop of their school / college life and placing the product in the center of this experience . This way I believe we could create a feeling of attachment to the product and would be able to communicate the features in a better manner than explicitly creating a traditional advertisement . This way also helps in creating a connection to real experience of our customers in the target age group than portraying our position in the market as only a commercial product company .
Insight & Approach
The approach to go about the whole storytelling process was conceptualized based on the learnings developed in this course . The setting of the basic design and structure helped in overall formulation of the whole story and product placement .
We developed some major insights about our customer choices & preferences based on feedback we noted through the story telling method . We as a business came to a conclusion that to create an association with our brand or product , we need to evoke an emotional response from our customers than sampling citing product features . This helps in creating brand loyalty for our product as the customer relates to the experiences mentioned in the story .
In hindsight I ’m happy with the decision of enrolling in the design course as it helped me create a framework to work in .

Challenge :
My challenge is about selling digital transformation in my organization . Established more than 40 years ago and operating in a very competitive and mature industry ( financial services ) , the use of technology has always been a consequence of either a pressing need for reliability or efficiency , a regulatory requirements or just to keep up with the competition . The use of technology as the basis of our competitive advantage has never been considered and making it front and central requires a major change in strategy . As if this were not enough , different stakeholders have different views about what a future driven by technology should look like . Some stakeholders imagine a future with little human intervention ( fully digital model ) while others see technology as an enhancer of human capabilities . Most financial institutions are undergoing their own versions of digital transformation and no two institution are following the exact same path . Furthermore , digital transformation needs to be planned and as such it needs to be properly understood and there must be a common view with proper buy - in among stakeholders .
Selection :
I have selected the storytelling tool for management as it is clear from the lecture in the video it allows to capture people ’s imaginations and to create an emotional bond among stakeholders and an idea , be it a brand or , in this case , an enormous companywide endeavor . The storytelling needs to be adequate for each audience : staff that could be concerned about being replaced , management who may not feel adequately prepared to operate in a different environment , leadership who may be facing steep investments with less than clear returns , and finally , directors representing shareholders who need the business to remain competitive in order to maintain or grow their shares ’ value . Through repetition , the story about our digital transformation can be internalized and made widely known and embraced .
Application :
I have created several stories over time to deal with the specific objectives . The initial story was about the changes that were already happening across many industries ( e.g. the demise of Blockbuster at the hands of Netflix and other streaming services ) . The second story referred to how financial institutions have been transforming by adopting technologies with the potential to create new customer experiences and eventually new revenues sources . My last version of the story describes a path for transformation and starts describing a potential future . These stories have been told in several ways : presentations to executive committee and board , townhall meetings ( in - person and virtual ) , corporate communications ( using all available media ) , creating roles of digital ambassadors , etc .
The storytelling has been very effective as the format lends itself to capture people ’s attention and facilitates retention . It also helps obtain feedback and broad participation in terms of new ideas about areas that require transformation prioritization . Nowadays , there is widespread understanding of the purpose and objectives of our transformation and people are eager to start measuring and reporting the results .
Insight :
Selling an abstract concept that needs wide buy - in , participation and feedback required a tool that would set it apart from the common approaches utilized to engage for every day ’s projects and initiatives . The use of storytelling to open a discussion about the need , the problems to solve , the different ways to approach the problems , and the potential benefits for customers and the corporation proved from the onset to be effective and engaging . Of course , some people did not like what was implied in the early stories and those had to be refined to make them attractive to the largest number of people . The use of suspense ( e.g. what would happen if we do not transform ? ) followed by a resolution ( e.g. we would be most likely bought by a competitor ) proved extremely helpful to make people think by themselves and draw the necessary conclusions .
Approach :
I ’m planning to keep using storytelling as the main tool as the digital transformation program evolves and to obtain feedback and buy - in across the organization . A bigger challenge is about to begin as I ’ll need to adapt these stories to new audiences like the professional investors ’ community .
As we start developing digital solutions intended to improve employee and customer journeys , I ’ll need to use other design thinking tools like visualization and mind mapping ( to help stakeholders discover problems and potential solutions ) , and learning launch ( to test most attractive solutions with groups of employees and customers , in order to gather feedback and continue refining our designs ) .

In my first year of work there was a Project that all new comers ( new grads ) were attented .
The Project was about finding weak features and suggesting new ideas on one of the apps that
individual teams have .
Each group had one team leader and I was one of them . Every team was approximately 20 - 30
people . Managing that many people and coming up with an good consequences was not an
easy thing for me . We had 1 full day to be together . However before that day we learnt our
app had a time thing and work on it . However , the majority of the work remains on meeting
day and team leaders picked up just a very short period of time . We also have in each team a
supervisor .
The tool that we used for come up with new and vital ideas was dividing our teams into
smaller pieces and making contest among each other . By doing that every team had list of
ideas and every team had to give points foe each idea and in on shot 1 team was graded . And
winner team will have free meal as reward . I choice this method because interaction among
people and graded by others is crucial thing for team issues . It has passion , excitement and
fun .
We had 4 teams and had a half day to thing as a group . We also have some rules if someone
violates it than this person ’s group will take minus one point ahead . The rules are like entering
each others room for interrupting and cheating . We have common areas for rest and some
snacks in that area and also one could get fresh area . However longer than 20 min breaks were
not allowed . I was also in one of teams and also checking at my breaks the other for not
permitting the violations . However it was not an easy thing and was hard to focus
everybody ’s focus for this event .
For applying this contest model for bringing up new ideas was an good choice I think .
Otherwise , managing the process by 20 people could not be an affective way .
The teams were arranged by their own wish . However at some points it made concentration
difficult . Fort he next time I will arranged groups randomly to get and better concentration
and as a result better work .

I work in the television broadcast and media industry , in which the technical landscape is constantly evolving with new and interesting ways to deliver and consume video , audio , and data content . Many of my customers can be overwhelmed by the broad - ranging new technologies available and struggle to understand how they can adopt such technologies to create additional revenue streams or generate greater profit margins . I chose the Storytelling tool to help take my customers on an imaginative , learning , and interactive journey to explore what their business model and consumer offering could look like embracing some of these new technologies . The aim is to ultimately generate interest in one or more of the products or services I am tasked with selling and lead the way to produce a new technology design , agree on commercial pricing and terms , and deployment of the new service . Application Since the successful deal closure with one of my customers ’ a tier 1 UK broadcaster , using a state - of- the - art cloud - based technology solution , there have been no further immediate new business opportunities emerging . I , therefore , prepared two stories linked to new technologies that would complement their cloud - based solution , which could ultimately once validated and refined , generate additional revenue for my customer . My first story relates to an enhanced consumer TV experience using personalised TV technology for delivery of television channels through the Internet , providing a more immersive experience for the end consumer , as the television programme content is specifically selected to match the individuals ’ tastes . The business proposition for my customer is ( i ) improved consumer retention as the TV channels become more appealing to each individual and ( ii ) a greater commercial value of the advertisement slots , as they too can be targeted and adapted to suite the individuals ’ tastes . I then told the story of another customer who also adopted a cloud - based technology solution and how they capitalised on its attributes , such as flexibility , scalability , and speed to launch new TV channels and services . I explained all of these attributes enabled that customer to secure new business over the competition , enabling new profitable revenue streams . For example , ( i ) the flexibility comes from a pure software solution enabling changes to take place with ease , such as changing a standard definition channel to a high or ultra - high definition channel , ( ii ) the scalability come from cloud solution expansion simplicity , enabling extra channels to be launched without the need for significant investment , and ( iii ) the software and cloud solution facilitates the rapid launch of new channels and feature , such as ‘ ad - hoc ’ PoP up thematic channels for special events such as the Olympics and Christmas TV Shows .
Insight and Approach With these first two stories my customer became fully engaged , not so much about what I was trying to sell to them , but how they could now see the new business opportunities for them and how they could succeed . On reflection , perhaps the stories could have been enhanced with the aid of a visualisation tool . As for the next steps , I plan to deliver a broader version of the stories to a wider audience from different departments within the customer ’s organisation , this time with the aid of complementary visualisation tools to help reinforce the message . The visualisation tool will show ( i ) how the technology will integrate within their new cloud solution , ( ii ) how the flow of the costs and revenue streams will occur , and ( iii ) the human interactivity from my company , my customer , and the end consumer . Although telling a story about a new business idea seems to go hand - in - hand , I had n’t fully appreciated it as a ‘ tool ’ until this course . I now feel story preparation and delivery complementary to the product or service I am selling is a key item for success .

Challenge & Selection
The first tool I used was the tool of Visualization , or Visual Thinking , 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 government agencies working to apply technology innovations to modernize their mission or the delivery of their services to their customer , which may be U.S. citizens , businesses , and non- citizens . I have used the technique of using a straw man visualization 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 .
Application
I start the process by creating a straw man graphic of the problem domain . To develop the straw man graphic , I will draw from any existing material available to understand the environment . The existing material may be operational or procedural documents , training materials , marketing materials , GAO or other auditing reports . If materials are not available , then I conduct informal interviews with one - three of the stakeholders who serve as my main points of contact on the initiative . If appropriate to the situation , I will borrow the concept to “ front - stage / back - stage ” from previous research , and discussed in David Gray ’s book , “ The Connected Company ” . The front- stage / back - stage approach helps to reinforce the notion that every service – even an internal service – has customers with whom the service provider interacts and internal processes that enable the organization to provide the service . The template I often start with also has a column on the left to identify Partners and Value Chain Providers and a column on the right to identify Oversight Organizations , such as Congress , GAO , labor unions , advocacy groups , and other entities that may add constraints to how the organization operates . The straw man graphic is simple , using simple shapes and icons available in Visio or on the Internet . If the front - stage / back - stage view does n’t work , then I will create a different type of visual , either based on a high - level process flow with swim lanes for different stakeholders , or another format . For the activity , I will divide the stakeholders into groups of 5 - 6 participants each representing a different organization or area of interest . Each group receives a poster - size copy of the straw man graphic that they can write on directly , or use sticky notes to make comments . I give them two - three questions to answer , such as : 1 ) What key elements are missing from the graphic ? 2 ) What would you change about the graphic to make it more accurately reflect your problem space ? 3 ) What key insights do you have about the relationships between the entities in your problem space ? I give them approximately 20 minutes to discuss the questions and mark up the graphic . Then I have each group report out on their answers to those three questions while pointing to the 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 digitize each group ’s poster as an artifact , create a view that combines the shared and new insights from the group discussion , and then create a revised graphic that incorporates their feedback and proposed changes that they agreed to as a group .
Insight & Approach
What I have learned from conducting this exercise with several groups is that while the graphic – especially the revised graphic that incorporates their feedback – is important for reinforcing their understanding of the problem they are working to solve , the more valuable aspect of the activity is the shared insights and shared learning that occurs while they are working to define their problem space . 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 . While they could create the graphic from a blank slate in a collaborative manner , starting with a straw man jump starts the conversation for them . They can quickly identify where they are in the graphic – or if they are missing – and can more quickly gain new insights about relationships between key entities instead of taking time to identify them . They can also identify variables in the problem space – 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 . 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 .

If the front - stage / back - stage view does n’t work , then I will create a different type of visual , either based on a high - level process flow with swim lanes for different stakeholders , or another format . For the activity , I will divide the stakeholders into groups of 5 - 6 participants each representing a different organization or area of interest . Each group receives a poster - size copy of the straw man graphic that they can write on directly , or use sticky notes to make comments . I give them two - three questions to answer , such as : 1 ) What key elements are missing from the graphic ? 2 ) What would you change about the graphic to make it more accurately reflect your problem space ? 3 ) What key insights do you have about the relationships between the entities in your problem space ? I give them approximately 20 minutes to discuss the questions and mark up the graphic . Then I have each group report out on their answers to those three questions while pointing to the 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 digitize each group ’s poster as an artifact , create a view that combines the shared and new insights from the group discussion , and then create a revised graphic that incorporates their feedback and proposed changes that they agreed to as a group .
Insight & Approach
What I have learned from conducting this exercise with several groups is that while the graphic – especially the revised graphic that incorporates their feedback – is important for reinforcing their understanding of the problem they are working to solve , the more valuable aspect of the activity is the shared insights and shared learning that occurs while they are working to define their problem space . 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 . While they could create the graphic from a blank slate in a collaborative manner , starting with a straw man jump starts the conversation for them . They can quickly identify where they are in the graphic – or if they are missing – and can more quickly gain new insights about relationships between key entities instead of taking time to identify them . They can also identify variables in the problem space – 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 . 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 .

Challenge
I work in the Project Management department in my organization and the challenge my organization is currently posed with is not having a Business Continuity Strategy in place in the case where an unpredicted or unplanned event takes place and disrupts the business thereby , workers can not go about their daily activities . My organization is set to implement a Business Continuity Management System to cater for uncertainties if a disruption occurs . The project scope is implementing a business continuity strategy for all business units in the organization while prioritizing the IT department . The project must be implemented within two months with key stakeholders from Project Management , Credit Risk and IT comprises of the core project team . We have been mandated by management to conduct Business Continuity Management System training for key stakeholders , alongside Business Impact Analysis Workshops , Risk Assessment for identified critical processes before arriving at strategies to be implemented , all within a two - month period .
Selection
The project team has gone through several workshops using various design thinking activities and tools , and we agreed to make use of the learning launch tool . This was selected so we can quickly test the strategies the team came up with and see if it yields the expected result before its finally implemented
Application
For the first learning launch , we moved all staff to another location to test if they can work effectively and yield the same result as with their current location in the event a disruption occurs in the current location . We discovered majority of the staff were restless as they were not used to this location . We proceeded to make an exact replicate of their work location for them so as not to fill out of place . We then carried out another exercise and found out that employees were less distracted this time around and were more comfortable
For our second learning launch , we asked all employees to work remotely to check if they could work effectively with little or no supervision . We discovered some employees could not access some of the organization ’s critical applications outside the office building . We then proceeded to make these applications accessible via VPN in the case where the office building or alternate location is not accessible during a disruption .
Insight
By applying the learning launch tool through carrying out these exercises we discovered some loopholes in the strategies to be created and made necessary fixes to make it effective in the case where a disruption occurs . The initial results were different from what we anticipated , however , as the fixes were made the results yielded were positive . These strategies will be implemented as we
have seen that they are efficient . This made the team realize that it is important to carry out tests and not just base your ideas on assumptions that they will yield expected results
Approach
Having gone through several design thinking activities , I will be making use of the learning lunch tool in situations where necessary and make it an iterative process until the expected result is derived . This is because with this tool you know what to expect .

Challenge A news organization needs to update a legacy editorial system that is used for editing and publishing news items . The key components in a particular type of news organization ( news agency ) are speed and accuracy . Both speed and accuracy need to be at a very high level , and one without the other does n’t work . The team is at the discovery stage . The project scope includes a diverse team of participants , such us higher management , editors , reporters and member of the development team . The team has approximately one week to gather insights for a next major iteration of the system .
Selection Mind mapping was selected because it ’s a tool that allows people with different needs , qualifications and user behavior to work together in groups on a problem that is company - wide and thus transcends particular roles . The method also creates highly visual results that are more easily digestible for people of different backgrounds who are not necessarily familiar with each other ’s professional terminology and methods .
Application and approach Key to a right approach is the diversity of the team . Each of the participants is encouraged to avoid professional jargon and explain a used functionality in a simple in simple terms as possible . The team interviews approximately eight users who work in different roles and who use the system a lot . An important insight that the team sees early in the process is that if you interview people who use the system for many hours a day for a long period of time for relatively simple tasks , they tend to be very experienced users who actually worked out some turnarounds for the least usable aspects of the system . That does n't necessarily mean that these aspects of the system are usable . The people just get accustomed to it . And because they got accustomed to it , they tend to say that everything 's alright , even if they are forced to do many unnecessary steps or go through a process that is not intuitive at all . So we need to focus on people who are actually less experienced because they still have n't got accustomed to the system and thus see its downsides more clearly . The team interviews that participants , encouraging them to think aloud , and documents both what they say and what they do , adding their emotions such as frustration or satisfaction . The team documents their behavior because what people do and what people sell they do is are actually different things in most contexts . Then the team has a large pool of sticky notes , which work well if we have actual physical sticky notes and a physical wall but one could use Miro or another tool like this . Then in smaller groups of five people which should be interdisciplinary the team tries to group those sticky notes in order to have several groups that clearly show some pain points , or decision points or emotions of the users . It 's important not to discard outliers , because some outlying notes could be useful later in the project . After most of the cars are grouped and the outliers are clearly visible on the margins , the team tries to come up with insights that could help formulate a solution for a particular problem on inflection point . Those insights are in turn grouped onto a matrix which shows time and effort needed to implement such an insight and the
importance of this insight for the users , importance being measured in how many users actually mentioned this or that problem . So this allows a complex view of how people actually think and what people actually do and to have most important insights prioritized in terms of their importance and cost . Mind mapping in some forms is repeated in the usability study when the team has a prototype of a new release . The tools used at that later stage are affinity / priority diagrams , traffic lights diagrams and other prioritizing tools . In sum , such an approach allows for quite accurate detection of design problems and for relatively quick solutions with short iterations .

A diary of a Nigerian Career man ; A typical day
Being a career man in the Lagos city of Nigeria requires almost triple the efforts , energy and strategies that could be required from career- oriented people in any other city in Nigeria . Firstly , let ’s have a brief overview of the Lagos City . Lagos is the most populous city in Nigeria and the second - largest city in Africa after Kinshasa , DRC , having a population of 14.8 million as of 2021 within the city proper . The Lagos metropolitan area has a total population of 21.3 million , making it the second - largest metropolitan area in Africa , after Cairo . Lagos is a major African financial centre and is the economic hub of Lagos State and Nigeria at large . The megacity has the fourth - highest GDP in Africa and houses one of the largest and busiest seaports on the continent . It is one of the fastest growing cities in the world .
Dele is a top management staff of a steel production company . He moved to Lagos a few months ago to take up the position of the Operation Manager , overseeing about 500 staff . The company provided a comfortable residence for him and his family just at the outskirt of Lagos city . This requires him to make an average of One to Two hours Trip to and fro his office daily .
He is required to resume at 9.00am and close by 5.00pm . He however needs to leave his house at on or before 5.00am so as not to get to the office late and to settle in enough for the day ’s work . Sometimes , work could keep him in his office till around 6.00pm , depending on the activities of the day .
He is also expected to make payments to workers at the factory as the needs arises . He averagely does about One hundred transactions daily . This he comfortably does with the help of the ALAT for Business that was set up on the company ’s account . He can do a bulk upload of over a 100 transaction at once in less that 5 minutes .
Now , imagine a world without an e - banking platform that can help him carry out his financial transactions from the comfort of his home/ office 24/7 . One needs about 30 minutes to consummate a transaction in person in a typical banking hall in Lagos , Nigeria . If Dele has to visit the bank for every transaction he needs to consummate , then he might as well be employed as a bank staff , because he will have to literally resume and close with the bank on a daily basis .
PART TWO : SELECTION
I have used the STORYTELLING TOOL to promote the ALAT for BUSINESS , an online e- banking platform that helps business owners to consummate their transactions seamlessly from the comfort of their homes/ offices without being physically present in the bank in less than 5mins .
In the short story above , I identified a major challenge/ problem that a typical operation manager of a big company might have to face in a city like Lagos and how this can be eased by reducing the time that could be spent in a bank for financial transactions .
I have identified the audience , where they come from , who they are , and what they need . I have pictured the sequence of events , giving important details , hard facts and recommendations that could suit the needs of the audience .

Challenge I am a process engineer and use to work on industrial equipment improvement for which we have sensors etc that helps us gather a significant amount of data which we can then analyse and draw evidence of drift / wear / etc , and best action to be taken . I have recently move into another division of the company and looking after technical service improvement & innovation for personal medical devices . Here the challenge is very different , we still can collect data from the equipment , but we also need to understand how the consumer / patient is using it , and what are the most important features or functionalities to trouble shoot and to innovate or create new solution . Our challenge is to create solutions that can be adaptable to different people needs , so we needed to come with a solution that has different options to better serve our customers . Going to commercial manufacturing of new devices implies fully customised new production equipment which come at a high cost . Selection We have initially worked through all the data we had but this was not relevant to our needs , analytical data were not the way to go , therefore we engaged into design thinking approach . After doing ethnological survey / interviews we identified different profile and needs amongst each . To validate our hypotheses , we decided to go for learning launch using prototype and small number of testers . Application For our first learning launch , we decided to focus on a specific profile , and execute option / customization of device for self - monitoring of sugar level in blood for diabetic kids . We had originally identified kids as a gap in our consumers range , and during the surveys we realised our equipment were not adapted enough for them and came with different possible options to make them more kids friendly . We prepared 3 prototypes of each of these options ( from physical change to the device like lighter weight battery , smartphone application or kids friendly interface and new colours ) . We then proceed to introduce these options to new panel and gathered their feedbacks Insight By applying the learning launch tool , our team identified the most valuable new options / features for young customers , based on scalability of the most popular options we were able to activate further development , and refined our feedback via additional prototype testing and then manufacturing and commercialisation of these . In the meantime , we moved to the other profiles we had identified and looked first at all the options which could be produced same process equipment which helped us to move even faster to build the prototype . Approach Given the need for real consumer feedback regarding practicality and appeal of the options ( especially for young kids ) the learning launch using prototype they could use and bring along seemed the best approach to be able to communicate the options clearly to the young consumers .

Starting position
I work in a university . In the last few years she has decided to go public with her topics and research results and not only to communicate them to the scientific community . The background is the idea that there are urgent problems in the world that can only be solved if everyone works together . To do so , however , one must move from knowledge to understanding and action . So how do you communicate complex interrelationships and scientific findings in such a way that they are well understood ?
The university has or is developing various formats of communication and teaching for this purpose , which explicitly address not only students , but also society as a whole . One format is an exhibition . The exhibition is ready , but because of Corona all museums have to remain closed . This means that the finished exhibition , which no one has seen before , will not be presented and will be empty for at least the next three months . So what to do with this closed exhibition , ready to start ? But there is another aspect to the problem : some at the university think that the university should rather concentrate on its core tasks like teaching students and research than on such activities like public exhibitions .
Challenge
One of the challenges is already to find the right questions and to recognize the actual problem . The obvious question is : How do we make the most of the time when the exhibition is closed ?
But there are other questions that arise , namely : what would be a good use , and for whom ? Which stakeholders actually have what needs ? And how do we best meet them ?
I have chosen Mind Mapping as my approach .
First , questions concerning the different needs and interested of the different stakeholders were collected with the team in a brainstorming session . They were then hung on the wall .
There were already guests from three stakeholder groups : the university scientists , the students and what we imagined to be typical museum - goers .
Then we began to cluster the questions . On a trelloboard , everyone could think about how they would sort the questions into a pattern , which was then hung on the wall .
The next step was to consider who the stakeholders actually are . This was collected as a group . From this , 7 persona were made , which were then provided with a picture . Then it was assigned which questions concern which stakeholders . At the same time a periodization was made , The team split up , tasks were distributed . In groups of two , two representatives of each persona were asked about the issues that affected them . A few days later the results were compiled and evaluated . Goals and criteria of success were specified . Together they then brainstormed on small formats that would be tried out in the coming months as Prototype .
Insight
I found it interesting that the group aspect became much more important than the actual ideas . No completely spectacular results came out of this , nothing that I probably would n't have found in any other way . However , through the involvement of many people and the team , something else was achieved , which subsequently turned out to be much more important : Everybody was eagerly involved in the project , supported it unconditionally and there was no criticism or envious looks , because everybody felt somehow responsible . Even those who were later not involved in the implementation .
Approach
Next time I would also try the use of Design Thinking Prototypes and on a smaller scale . The very first time I tried to choose such a large project involving so many people , it quickly became much more complex than expected and also led to some resentment .

Challenge
One of the biggest challenges in service development and digitization is explaining a digital solution that an IT department would like to develop . First you have to identify the problem which most of the time is not an easy task . The challenge becomes bigger if you all ready have a solution implemented in place , but you need to enhance it either visually or user experience .
Nevertheless , explaining the solution usually requires bench marking and proving the solution will work by explaining how it will work , and justify the time and money spent on it , which is usually done by powerpoint presentation that Staes the problem sometimes through statistics of companies and dissatisfied clients , as well as time and employee time spent on solving that problem
Selection
After trying many means , even utilizing consulting companies to build the case for new solutions , that some times requires multiple meetings where the top management requires further analysis and verification on statistics , and deep dive in case of there problems , and sometimes widening the benchmark research . A selection was made that rather than depending on powerpoint presentation and mockups of the solution we will use a sketch storyboard to reflect a real life experience of someone having a challenge and how our digital solution will allow him to benefit from our services , Just a simple real life sketchbook storyboard that you normally buy in bookstores to read and enjoy , simple and easy .
Application & Approach
We started the process by creating a character that represents service superhero , we named him Raid ( means entrepreneur ) who will appear on every presentation as the helper , wise , Mr. fix it . The same character will appear on out website as a chatbot agent . The problem will be then expand by two entrepreneur facing the problem , or an entrepreneur visiting a government offices or a bank or service provider . Raid will appear then with his smartphone or tablet to show the customer how to solve his problem easily . We will use actual mockups of how the screens will look like . Multiple scenarios will be designed and tested with our team and focus groups and get their feedback and measure their satisfaction . Once the final draft is reached we got to present it to the top management
Insight
Getting the approval in a new idea is sometime difficult , first people do not like change from what they are used to , second it may require a special budget that its is nor preferred unless it is a must or a definite and significant benefit is clear . Using regular powerpoint presentation that shows the need , dissatisfaction by customers , and bench mark to other similar entities , while it works sometimes it is not appealing to the top management , let alone normal individuals .
Using sketchbook storyboard is visually appearing and creates a novel like environment and anticipation . People will relate to it and will feel energy comfort to participate , rather than graphs and numbers that only a fraction of people will feel easy to participate , after all it is a story .
Applying that methodology gain us nice vibes in meetings , put most important a quick meetings and approval . As well as people continue to remember Raid and his solution . So it worked well as a communication tool . While this may not seem to be suitable for boar meetings , our experience showed the opposite , people liked it and find it easier to understand the problem and the solution . We are considering to try using a VR to give it more life .

Challenge
I work in the Learning and Development team , managing Leaning Technologies in the company and the extent to which employees go through both mandatory and not , online trainings , courses , learning materials etc . The projects that we are daily focused on cover creating or discovering the learning tools for the employees , implementation of such tools and creation of learning materials based on them . Lately , we ’ve been more and more focused on providing people with some more effective and more user - friendly experiences when it comes to self - development materials . As we have observed the most of the courses that are provided for employees are not used properly . People tend to complete only the mandatory compliance trainings and are less likely to go through not - mandatory ones , as so they do not develop their skills to the highest possible extent . Moreover , probably most content is just scrolled over and not actually understood . As so , we have gathered a huge amount of data , reporting the time spent on different types of online courses by our employees , we have also reported how they are reacting to different interactions ( as f.ex . quizzes or role playing ) within the courses and what tools they are most likely to use and to come back to . Moreover , the qualitative data was also gathered , as the feedback from different groups of employees using various tools and solutions that we are using for online learning within the company . The challenge is to see what tools are really effective and as so , how to improve the quality of solutions we are providing to people .
Selection
We have managed to gather a huge amount of data reflecting the “ what is ” stage . However , just having it does not truly help in understanding the situation . It is difficult to draw conclusions out of such piles of different reports , excel files or written responses directly from the employees . Mind mapping will help us to look for patterns and insights in this large quantity of data , creating a wider picture and as so – enabling us to think about the universal solution that will reflect the minds , needs and expectations of the majority of the company ’s employees , which is exactly the solution that we are looking for . Mind mapping will help us to see this “ what is ” as one , complete picture .
Application
I have decided to directly implement and test the metaphor of the art gallery from the book “ Designing for Growth ” by Masoom Musa and Luke Parmar . Firstly I have set up a date and asked my co - workers from the team and other employees from the company ( also those who are working within different departments , so being the end - users of learning tools and not the developers ) to join me for 3 hours for the “ workshop ” . At the room we were supposed to meet , the data we gathered throughout the What is stage was displayed . We have also used some visualizations techniques ( like simple PowerBI dashboards ) to present the excel numbers as diagrams and graphs , for people to see actually the meaning behind the numbers . I have decided that putting plain excel reports there wo n’t make any sense , as we had rows and rows of numbers that people were unable to understand by simply looking at them . Moreover , there were employee ’s feedbacks distributed as flyers . Finally , when the invited people came to the room , they were quickly introduced to the challenge – that we are searching for some more effective learning tools to use them within the company . Then , they were given sticky notes and asked to simply wander around for a while , look at the diagrams , think about what they
see , read the feedbacks and note their instant reflections . Afterwards we all gathered and discussed the reflections , clustering them into similar groups .
Insight & Approach
During the discussion time we have carefully noted all of the insights that were mentioned and we gathered the notes from people who participated . We have noticed that after all the solutions that seemed better and more effective for us as designers , were not as convincing for all of the people that took part in the experience . As for us “ making fireworks ” , so using very advanced technologies and plenty of interactions seemed a good way to go at the beginning . But , as it turned out the minds of end - users prefer more simple and straight- forward solutions , so the focus would be simply put on the content itself . Moreover , the interesting observation was seeing various patterns upon employees working within different departments . For example , people working on taxes had different expectations than those working in deals or HR . As we observed , probably the solutions that we are searching for can not be plainly universal after all , as it occurred there are not coherent needs . Because of that , I think that next time I will invite even more diversified people , creating a sample of all of our target audience . What ’s more , probably the good improvement would be to firstly divide them into teams consisting of people with similar job scopes , so they will be able to discuss their reflections and draw common insights . And only after that make the teams present their conclusions to one another , comparing them . The good tool for such a comparison could be the SWOT analysis . Then , each insight can be discussed upon its strengths , weaknesses , opportunities and treats . Having such analysis made will also help us further in deciding what solutions are worth exploring and maybe even implementing .

Visualization
Challenge & Selection
The tool I used was the tool of Visualization , or Visual Thinking , to
achieve a shared understanding of a problem space among a diverse personal of stakeholders before attempting to identify and define possible solutions to the problem .
I use this approach often with my client , who are government
agency working to create a learning programs , the goal out of it , is to build up a group of skills inside a school student personality that would lead later on in her future to create a leader personality would also lead to a great society environment , I have used the technique of using a straw man visualization 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 , defining our real believes , also defining the real goals , boundaries , key elements , and relationships between the program its self and the teacher all the way to the student learning behavior to consider when identifying pain points and opportunities for improvements or solutions .
The real challenge here is how to build a habit and train the
willpower to our teachers who ’s going to teach this extra course or activity without letting it become another boring teaching material . which we had to understand first the meaning of how habits is being created . and introduce it as a back stage power .
Ahmed Mohammed Design thinking Final project
Application
I start the process by creating a straw man graphic of the problem , to
develop the straw man graphic , i will draw from any existing material available to understand the environment . the existing material is from a study of habit behaviors , from studies and experiments , some social youtube videos .
The stalk holder start then agreeing to the direction of the graphic brain
storming or coming up with more ideas to the board .
then start to introduce the path of the solution using the Thefront-
stage / back - stage technique , the front stage is the teachers we are in the back stage creating something called the habit loop . that will contain three paths ( the cue , the routine , the reword ) which we want it to exists in all our programs . I used the visual path to dream of the path of the teacher and the believe we should install in her first before she start teaching the kind of programs .
we also deferred the define between the awareness program to the master
the skills program , the awareness program that will introduce the student to what subject is that , but wo nt allow him to master it until we create stimulates this subjects .
Ahmed Mohammed Design thinking Final project
Insight & Approach
What I have learned from conducting this exercise with several groups is
that while the graphic especially the revised graphic that incorporates their feedback is important for reinforcing their
understanding of the problem they are working to solve , the more
valuable aspect of the activity is the shared insights and shared learning that occurs while they are working to define their problem space .
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 . While they could create the graphic from a blank slate in a collaborative manner , starting with a straw man jump starts the conversation for them . They can quickly identify where they are in the graphic , or what they are missing , and can more quickly gain new insights about relationships between key entities instead of taking time to identify them . They can also identify variables in the problem space , 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 .
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 remain of the out reach project .

we also deferred the define between the awareness program to the master
the skills program , the awareness program that will introduce the student to what subject is that , but wo nt allow him to master it until we create stimulates this subjects .
Ahmed Mohammed Design thinking Final project
Insight & Approach
What I have learned from conducting this exercise with several groups is
that while the graphic especially the revised graphic that incorporates their feedback is important for reinforcing their
understanding of the problem they are working to solve , the more
valuable aspect of the activity is the shared insights and shared learning that occurs while they are working to define their problem space .
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 . While they could create the graphic from a blank slate in a collaborative manner , starting with a straw man jump starts the conversation for them . They can quickly identify where they are in the graphic , or what they are missing , and can more quickly gain new insights about relationships between key entities instead of taking time to identify them . They can also identify variables in the problem space , 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 .
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 remain of the out reach project .

In my last one job like General Manager in a chain of optics , with the board of directors we face the challenge related to found the motivation of the independents optometrists to buy a franchise . The sells had drop during the last years and general the market . We needed to know what we could offer for them they to buy our franchise and increase the sells . We developed some strategies members of board suggested like participate in business rounds and fairs in the optical sector . However , the finance resources invested in those strategies did not obtain the sell of any franchise .
The tool that I selected was mind mapping , such as mentioned by professor Marian Moore in her video , it is used to look for patterns , insights , that help us to discover more creative solutions to face a challenge . She gived us this formal definition “ Mind mapping is looking for patterns and insights in a large quantity of data you collected during your exploration of what is the current reality ” .
Therefore , I think that it is the appropriate tool in this case , in order to collect as much information as possible through interviews with the independent optometrists and after be able organize the insights to found and understand what they want obtain of a franchise and what would motivate them to buy one .
Such as we seen in this course , the mind mapping is a excellent tool to work the “ what is ” stage , since it allows presenting and communicating all the information collected efficiently .
In the first place , we search one data base with information of independents optometrists through de national association . Immediately , we made phone calls to schedule appointments in order to present our value proposal , once the presentation ended , we made room for them give us feedback asking them the most important questions for our purpose like ¿ Do you found value to join of our franchise ? Why yes or not ? , What is the principal benefit that you wait of a franchise ? , ¿ What is that you do n’t like of a franchise ? ¿ In the past do you has been join to a franchise ? Why yes or not ?
Unfortunately , we had few presentations , consequently our conclusions were not sufficiently supported , the way we presented the information collected was not the best , since we failed communicate the ideas clearly .
Therefore , in our case the application the mind mapping tool was ineffectively .
The information I gained by applying the Mind Mapping to my challenge allowed me to evidence the great difference that exists between what we think of a situation from our desk and the reality seen from the perspective of our clients , for this reason I understood widely the importance of tools like Mind Mapping to
able arrive to know the reals needs of our customers , based on which to design useful and innovative solutions .
Definitively thew next time would apply the same tool but with the following changes :
• Increase the number an independents optometrists interviews in order to
gather more information that adequately supports the proposed solutions , since on this occasion few were conducted , therefore the conclusions presented did not have the necessary support
• Have so little information did not allow us to make a good organized and
presentation for the board members , unfortunately we did not get the most out of the tool
Finally while reviewing this submission I was inspired by all the personas that have many things to say but also by the number of deaf ears that exist , therefore it is essential to open our minds to develop our listening skills in the first instance

I work for a large organisation in the financial industry sector and my role is to provide the business and senior management with customer insight so that business decisions can be made by not only focussing on income but also to obsessively focus on the customer . Storytelling is a great tool in meetings or debriefs to bring our customer voice to life and to influence business change .
Storytelling is useful in far more situations than most leaders realize such as inspiring the organization , setting a vision , teaching important lessons , defining culture and values , and explaining who our customers are and what they believe . In addition , storytelling is useful when heavy influence is required like leading change , or making recommendations to the senior stakeholders in the business . Often , our senior stakeholder do get overloaded with lots of presentations as well as data for their strategic decision making , a story will allow them to remember the presentation much better compared to numbers .
Application
I have a story about using storytelling . As a business we are making constant business decisions based on growth and ROI . Once , the business made a decision to make operational changes to a business unit that had a great income opportunity but they not know how these changes would impact the customer . I have told the business a story about a vulnerable customer who was negatively impacted by the changes and told his / her story to the internal decision makers and what the customer experienced and said .
Insight & Approach
It allowed the business to cross correct their plans to ensure that they fully focus on customer experience and the implication it has on the customer when they made operational changes . The story of the customer bought the issue clearly to life and was told across the business . Senior stakeholders were able to bring the customers to the heart of the decision making process without compromising financials or ROI . It is now encouraged to always have a customer story during key meetings .

Challenge :
I decided this year to start my own brand of sustentable products , like candles , pads for face cleaning , solid shampoo , eco toothbrush and more . So in the beginning I decided to start using storytelling . This works because a live in Argentina and here all the idea of sustainable products , having a more green life and be eco friendly is not as much as develop as in other countries . I think that the reason of this is that our number of poor population is really big , we have a lot of citizens that are economically disadvantaged and their priority is not to take care of the world but of themselves . So my challenge is to target the real people that is going to possibly buy my products and the to involved them in the green culture using storytelling tool . Selection : Storytelling is a tool used in design thinking , it works because you can create a story of your brand and this is a strategy to bond with your audience and to create a link with your customers . And in the end you can achieve to get loyals customers to the brand . Application : Taking in account this context , I work to segment my market and then to tell the story of my brand and how it works to improve the world . Taking in account all the applications that the products can have in the real life . So , the customer now is more involved , they have something to believe and to be part of . They can see them using my products , the products are affordable . Also the customers feel that they can be part of the solution , that in this way they are part of the story of helping and improving the world . Insight :
So for applying storytelling to my challenge I end up with some conclusions , in one hand I could manage to see that a lot of people think like me , that there was plenty of consumers that wanted to see a change in the way of spending money and how companies can work not only to be successful economically but to be conscious about the environment and to care about the others . And in the other hand the react in the long term that people have because of being involve , they actually feel part of the brand and they can proudly say that they are part of it .
Approach : I really like using this tool , I felt very comfortable , I have never used a tool like this one and this course made me realise I can take advantage of a lot of things I have n't been considering , and make them and asset for my brand .

After a long consulting project our client asked me and my team to understand better whether one of the developments was correctly created or not . This development was a complete application to create a delivery receipt where the operation - worker had to enter information related to the delivery manually . He was concerned as the time that trucks were being delayed one of the pain points was that the operator was entering the information wrong and not fast enough . When we finished the according to specifications of the development , we suggested the client use an approach of deployment focused on testing rather than fast and insecure . This suggestion was based on the experience which tells us that a good deploying process always needs a thorough testing phase to verify several hypotheses that you may have related to user - experience , data , scalability , and others .
Selection
I believe that the learning launch is a very good tool to tackle this challenge as it helps to verify hypothesis that our team had before deploying the development and as it was described in module 4 of the course it tests customer execution , in this case , the operation - worker . In addition , it helps our client to remove some assumptions previously made . For instance , he thought that workers knew everything by heart , and they were not going to make mistakes that could stop the productivity of the warehouse and delivery process . Another important factor to mention is that to tackle this problem with other tools as Mind Mapping was not possible , as we needed something fast and without any stop of productivity so it had to be something that could be proven on - demand .
Application
First , we removed the assumption that workers knew everything by heart as our deployment clearly prove it . Second , we started to elaborate the hypothesis that we wanted to address with our development . The first approach was to prove two important theories , First , whether the workers were going to feel comfortable by automatizing some of the information , this is something very good to do as some of them could feel that they are being replaced by computing power resulting in problems with the workers union . The second was to know if and automation of information was going to improve considerably the timing of the delivery receipt process . Thus , to accomplish this verification we established all the points of entering data and we classified them by probability of error based on our previous deployment . There were a total of 25 points of data and we decided that 18 of them had the necessity to be automatized . The efforts to automatize this process should be profitable in the long - term for the company so there was also a financial analysis behind this decision . The solution was deployed , and the time defined for analysis was one week of operation . It is important to mention that the indicators to accept or reject the hypothesis were made for the first one out of data and to the second out of the manager sense of the operations .
The results were outstanding , the first hypothesis was rejected and the second was accepted . We got to realize that workers felt highly comfortable with the automation process as long as they don´t lose their jobs . This gave an opportunity to our client to take the best - workers to other positions in the warehouse and even promoting some of them to managers of small - teams . The productivity of the delivery process increased by 140 % and after obtaining the feedback from workers the process was completely automated increasing the productivity another 10 % more . The use of the tool was completely effective ; however , it also tells you something about how the implementation process was handled in general .
Insight
The tool was completely good to use . It gives the feeling of doing something right for the customer and their internal customers ( workers ) . It also made me realize that this project could be done in another way from the beginning as design thinking has other tools that could have worked perfectly . The main problem was that this implementation was a little part of a big one , so of course , it did not have the focus to be tackled as a complete project using design thinking where the what is ? and what if ? parts could have saved a lot of time . Another important point is that the Learning Launch is an exceptional tool to save some consulting projects that were badly implemented , especially if they are related to software . It is very easy to apply the tool and to have quick and impactful results . In addition , this is very similar to the last phase of lean startup where you have to test your assumptions or hypothesis to then continue the development in an infinite loop that only you decide when to close it . Nowadays , most of the software corporations have constant updates like the ERP of Oracle , SAP , IBM and others , all of them are using this methodology where they are learning if the way they are tackling their customers ’ needs is the correct one and if there is some space from improvements in UX , functionalities or integrations .
Approach
I would have chosen other design thinking tools from the beginning . This process was taken as an additional development with no high priority , that is why it was not taken the necessary in - depth of a consulting project . I believe that Mind - Mapping would have been a very good tool to clearly track the process of the customers , in this case , the workers . Thus , understand correctly what they need , also providing a very good start - point for testing as you could have most of the variables involved to make the correct hypothesis for the phase . In addition , we could have avoided wrong assumptions and saved time .

It is important to mention that the indicators to accept or reject the hypothesis were made for the first one out of data and to the second out of the manager sense of the operations .
The results were outstanding , the first hypothesis was rejected and the second was accepted . We got to realize that workers felt highly comfortable with the automation process as long as they don´t lose their jobs . This gave an opportunity to our client to take the best - workers to other positions in the warehouse and even promoting some of them to managers of small - teams . The productivity of the delivery process increased by 140 % and after obtaining the feedback from workers the process was completely automated increasing the productivity another 10 % more . The use of the tool was completely effective ; however , it also tells you something about how the implementation process was handled in general .
Insight
The tool was completely good to use . It gives the feeling of doing something right for the customer and their internal customers ( workers ) . It also made me realize that this project could be done in another way from the beginning as design thinking has other tools that could have worked perfectly . The main problem was that this implementation was a little part of a big one , so of course , it did not have the focus to be tackled as a complete project using design thinking where the what is ? and what if ? parts could have saved a lot of time . Another important point is that the Learning Launch is an exceptional tool to save some consulting projects that were badly implemented , especially if they are related to software . It is very easy to apply the tool and to have quick and impactful results . In addition , this is very similar to the last phase of lean startup where you have to test your assumptions or hypothesis to then continue the development in an infinite loop that only you decide when to close it . Nowadays , most of the software corporations have constant updates like the ERP of Oracle , SAP , IBM and others , all of them are using this methodology where they are learning if the way they are tackling their customers ’ needs is the correct one and if there is some space from improvements in UX , functionalities or integrations .
Approach
I would have chosen other design thinking tools from the beginning . This process was taken as an additional development with no high priority , that is why it was not taken the necessary in - depth of a consulting project . I believe that Mind - Mapping would have been a very good tool to clearly track the process of the customers , in this case , the workers . Thus , understand correctly what they need , also providing a very good start - point for testing as you could have most of the variables involved to make the correct hypothesis for the phase . In addition , we could have avoided wrong assumptions and saved time .

Challenge & Selection
The school where I work decided to start a process to redesign the experience of parents and new applicants to the institution .
The first tool I used was the tool of Visualization , or Visual Thinking , to identify the principal requirements and needs of the customers .
Application
A mapping of the Attention to new prospects process was carried out through the customer journey map tool .
The customer journey involves every interaction with the company . When a customer receive our service , that transaction is merely the tip of the iceberg in what is essentially a journey created by all the moments leading up to and following the purchase .
This first tool did not help find the touchpoints and pain points , before , during and after the transaction .
To validate the satisfaction scale shown on the map , focus groups were held with the following interest groups :
• Parents of first year high school students
• Parents of fifth semester high school students
• High school fifth semester students
Three sessions were designed to talk with the groups . An outline of guiding questions was generated with the aim of guiding the talk , but priority was given to participants addressing the topics freely rather than questioning them . In the focus group sessions , an attempt was made to identify what parents and students valued most during the selection process and what aspects of their experience would improve .
Insight & Approach
With the information resulting from the mapping and the sessions with the clients , the pain points on which the organization should focus were determined .
As a next step , it was determined to attend two relevant points :
• Attraction of new applicants
• Improve telephone service in the Service Center
The customer journey map and focus groups were a good measure to identify the points in which the organization should focus in order to improve the experience of parents and students during the attraction process . Allowing to identify the What is ? And lay the basis for the ideation process ( What if ? ) .

Challenge and Selection
The tool I have selected is the story telling tool . The tool can be defined simply as
understanding the emotions of the customer . Storytelling is a vital tool at my workplace that I
have learned to use with this course 's help . I work with an agricultural firm , where we engage
with farmers to collect data and sell various products , primarily in the rural areas where
farmers have little to no extension services . The kinds of products we sell are like improved
varieties and subsidized fertilizer , as the ministry of agriculture also licenses us to reach
farmers in rural areas .
The challenge that I faced is that at the beginning of the product sales , there was
always a lag that I could not understand nor explain to my supervisor as farmers did not want
to buy the product even though it would improve yields significantly . After developing
various strategies associated with proven strategies , such as surveys and consumer journey
mapping to understand the problem . the sales also did not pick , and hence I used this tool to
resolve the challenge in the field .
Application
I made time and met withs seme farmers in private and offered them the product .
They were skeptical about the product , and they began to tell me the issue that had been
facing them with previous products and the new ones . Most rural farmers are the product
skeptical about new products , and one farmer mentioned that it is because they have used the
same products for a long and it had become impossible to trust a new product even with its
proposed benefits .
Using storytelling , I was able to gather more farmers and discuss the challenges they
faced , the limitations of the current strategies that my company was employing , and how - to
re - design and re - market the products to meet the needs of the rural farmers .
Insight and Approach
The amount of information received from the farmers was simply eye - opening . I
realized why our products were not selling just by engaging with the farmers using the
storytelling tool . After creating a presentation of the findings to my supervisor , we organized
the whole sales team and came up with strategies such as farmer education , not just selling
the products without engaging with farmers .
Another strategy was to organize seminars to show the rural farmers what modern
agriculture looks like , and they were thrilled to be included . Sales skyrocketed , and farmers '
engagement has remained a hallmark of the sales work that I do . In applying this tool in the
field again , I will be keener to develop a story that meets the needs of the customers even
though I am not very comfortable with it . I will try to make the tool work for me rather than
waiting until a challenge occurs , and then I am forced to rethink my approaches .

Challenge :
The challenge I wish to put forward is starting a great innovation . Many great innovators ,
entrepreneurs , writers all of them . Writers get stuck in writers block , entrepreneurs face failures , innovators run out of ideas . This is a basic challenge that we see many people face around us .
Selection :
The tool that I want to beat this challenge is Story Telling . Story telling is basically what
creates inspiration and drives motivation . Every great invention , every great story , every great company is born out of inspiration and driven by motivation which stories provide .
Application :
I want to apply story telling to this challenge because all great things are born out from
stories . Stories tell us the need of the society and need always drives innovation . And not just finding out the need , stories teach us way more valuable lessons , stories of success give us a direction to walk , stories of failures tell us the path that ought not to be taken . Stories of determination and perseverance remind us of the fruits of hard work .
Insight :
Insight that was gained from applying this tool to this challenge is the amount of success we
have seen in the past century . Institutions learn from the stories of their mistakes , individuals learn from the stories of others , and the world strives to work so hard on repeating the history that reminds us of the darkest days of humanity . These are all insights gained from applying story telling in daily life
Approach :
One approach we have seen is in this course itself , where we have learnt important things
from stories like those of George and Geoff . This just tells us how effective story telling is and how important role in plays in learning . We can approach the tool of story telling in many ways . A few of them would directly be reading from them , creating them to fit your space and many more approaches .
This is a very insightful tool that should be used in a proper way in the field of design
thinking and innovation to get substantial results .

1 .
Challenge :
Describe
your
challenge ,
including
all
relevant
information
The
challenge
presented
is
how
( dis)comfort
is
perceived
for
the
workers
of
an
existing
tertiary
building
( whose
spaces
are
destined
to
offices
and
labs ) ,
and
know
if
it
is
possible
that
their
participation
individually
and
as
a
collective
influences
in
a
better
building
intervention ,
more
accurate ,
precise ,
and
if
possible
with
time
and
money
saving .
2 .
Selection :
in
your
own
words ,
briefly
describe
the
tool
you
selected ,
what
it
is
and
why
you
selected
it
for
your
challenge ,
including
any
appropriate
video
lecture
references
The
selected
tool
is
Visualization .
This
tool
facilitates
the
aim
of
a
common
and
comprehensive
understanding
of
a
problem .
Moreover ,
the
culture
level
and
the
ability
of
communicate
themselves
could
be
very
different
depending
on
the
stakeholder
considered ,
their
expertise
and
they
background .
So ,
evidence
based
on
images ,
symbols ,
photos ,
or
similar ,
helps
to
summarize ,
focus
on
the
concept
or
idea
to
work
with ,
and
to
express ,
even
to
report ,
personal
situations
detected
by
them
( for
instance ,
by
users ,
at
home ) .
This
tool
also
fosters
the
stakeholders
participation .
At
the
same
time ,
it
favors
the
common
understanding
when
someone
expresses
an
idea
or
concept ,
helping
to
assure
the
comprehension
of
this
term .
The
later
reflections
based
on
those
photos ,
individually
and
collectively
improve
the
project ,
approaching
the
reality
to
researchers
and
practitioners
in
an
imaginative
and
creative
way .
It
allows
to
use
the
whole
brain
for
better
and
unexpected
connections
that
find
different
solutions
( as
Nicole Brandt
said
in
her
video-‐intervention
describing
the
tool ) .
3 .
Application :
Describe
how
you
applied
the
tool
you
selected
to
your
challenge
( whay
you
did
and
how
the
tool
was
applied
effectively
or
ineffectively )
In
the
Project ,
visualization
was
applied
through
photographs ,
taken
by
the
own
participants ,
to
express
graphically
their
concerns ,
lacks
or
problems
related
to
their
perception
of
workplace
comfort .
These
photos
would
later
be
used
as
vehicles
to
trigger
their
storytelling
about
their
perception ,
and
also
Foster
debates
among
participants ,
to
consense
ideas
or
concepts
to
work
with ,
and
later ,
propose
solutions .
The
participants
were
15 ,
divided
in
3
groups
of
5
each ,
according
to
their
building
and
energy
knowledge .
All
of
them
evaluated
and
debate
on
the
whole
of
photos
taken
( more
than
50 ) ,
and
in
groups ,
their
chose
their
representative
ones ,
explained
to
the
rest
of
the
group
why ,
and
searched
solutions
together ,
categorizing
them
with
the
facilitator
( me )
help .
We
applied
this
tool ,
a
kind
of
visualization
trough
participant
own-‐photos ,
because
it
had
the
power
of
give
objectivity
to
situations
that ,
narrated
by
someone ,
could
be
understood
as
exaggerated
or
just
distorsion-‐perceived .
But
if
someone
takes
a
photo
of
a
particular
situation ,
the
result
is
more
credible .
And
also ,
to
use
those
images
as
triggers
of
debate ,
critical
awareness ,
and
search
of
solutions .
4 .
Insight :
describe
the
insight
you
gained
from
applying
the
tool
you
selected
to
your
challenge
( how
an
insight
affected
your
thinking
about
the
challenge
and
about
design
thinking
more
broadly )
Qualitative
approaches
offer
to
researchers
lots
of
insights
that
quantitative
can´t
do .
So
it
was
a
great
interest
to
choose
this
kind
of
approaches .
Specifically ,
visualization
offered
the
possibility
to
work
with
people
with
different
studies
level ,
building
comfort
and
energy
comprehension ,
age ,
and
interests .
It
was
a
challenge
for
them
( also
for
researchers )
wait
for
photo-‐results
representing
something
so
abstract
such
as
“ comfort ” .
But
either
taking
their
own
photos ,
or
debating
on
them ,
it
was
very
helpful ,
efficient ,
and
grateful .
There
also
appeared
lots
of
insights ,
for
instance
comfort
experts
that
worked
in
this
building ,
and
who
were
part
of
those
participants ,
“ forgive ”
in
some
way
all
the
comfort
lacks
that
they
also
suffered
as
users ,
due
to
their
comprehensive
understanding
of
certain
building
circumstances .
It
was
very
surpresing
for
me ,
because
I
hoped
a
more
critical
point
of
view .
Another
insight
was ,
that
those
comfort
and
energy
experts ,
due
to
their
discomfort
at
workplace ,
needed
to
use
( and
took
their
photos )
about
non-‐efficient
solutions
to
heat
their
internal
spaces ,
for
instance .
When
their
explained
their
shoots ,
the
argued
that
they
knew
that
behavior
was
not
proper
to
pursue
a
sustainable
waste
of
energy ,
with
inefficient
solutions ,
but
they
could
not
work
with
such
cold
indoors .
5 .
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
think
this
tool
has
more
advantages
than
disadvantages .
But
in
a
workplace
environment ,
their
application
has
to
be
followed
and
approved
by
the
institution
managers
or
directors ,
and
also
by
department
chiefs ,
to
avoid
mis-‐understandings
on
what
are
shooted ,
and
why .
If
not ,
it
could
be
looked
with
distrust
and
suspicion .
Planification
is
also
very
important ,
in
the
whole
process ,
to
collect
data
( photos
are
a
kind
of
qualitative
data ,
as
well
as
storytelling ) ,
the
way
to
communicate
facilitators
( researchers )
and
participants ,
the
means
of
transfering
data
( internet ,
whatsapp
or
similar ,
etc ) ,
the
space
to
work
in ,
the
number
of
sessions
and
tasks
to
do
during
each
one ,
and
the
resources
to
facilitate
debate
( press ,
pcs ,
screens ,
pens
and
paper ,
something
sweet
to
help
people
think
in
a
good
mood … ) .
Next
time
I
will
try
to
work
more
efficientlywith
photographs ,
avoiding
silly
conversations
or
silent
gaps ,
to
make
debates
shorter ,
but
more
interesting .

### Input: Project
from :
Sonia Salinas
( Spain ) .
1 .
Challenge :
Describe
your
challenge ,
including
all
relevant
information
The
challenge
presented
is
how
( dis)comfort
is
perceived
for
the
workers
of
an
existing
tertiary
building
( whose
spaces
are
destined
to
offices
and
labs ) ,
and
know
if
it
is
possible
that
their
participation
individually
and
as
a
collective
influences
in
a
better
building
intervention ,
more
accurate ,
precise ,
and
if
possible
with
time
and
money
saving .
2 .
Selection :
in
your
own
words ,
briefly
describe
the
tool
you
selected ,
what
it
is
and
why
you
selected
it
for
your
challenge ,
including
any
appropriate
video
lecture
references
The
selected
tool
is
Visualization .
This
tool
facilitates
the
aim
of
a
common
and
comprehensive
understanding
of
a
problem .
Moreover ,
the
culture
level
and
the
ability
of
communicate
themselves
could
be
very
different
depending
on
the
stakeholder
considered ,
their
expertise
and
they
background .
So ,
evidence
based
on
images ,
symbols ,
photos ,
or
similar ,
helps
to
summarize ,
focus
on
the
concept
or
idea
to
work
with ,
and
to
express ,
even
to
report ,
personal
situations
detected
by
them
( for
instance ,
by
users ,
at
home ) .
This
tool
also
fosters
the
stakeholders
participation .
At
the
same
time ,
it
favors
the
common
understanding
when
someone
expresses
an
idea
or
concept ,
helping
to
assure
the
comprehension
of
this
term .
The
later
reflections
based
on
those
photos ,
individually
and
collectively
improve
the
project ,
approaching
the
reality
to
researchers
and
practitioners
in
an
imaginative
and
creative
way .
It
allows
to
use
the
whole
brain
for
better
and
unexpected
connections
that
find
different
solutions
( as
Nicole Brandt
said
in
her
video-‐intervention
describing
the
tool ) .
3 .
Application :
Describe
how
you
applied
the
tool
you
selected
to
your
challenge
( whay
you
did
and
how
the
tool
was
applied
effectively
or
ineffectively )
In
the
Project ,
visualization
was
applied
through
photographs ,
taken
by
the
own
participants ,
to
express
graphically
their
concerns ,
lacks
or
problems
related
to
their
perception
of
workplace
comfort .
These
photos
would
later
be
used
as
vehicles
to
trigger
their
storytelling
about
their
perception ,
and
also
Foster
debates
among
participants ,
to
consense
ideas
or
concepts
to
work
with ,
and
later ,
propose
solutions .
The
participants
were
15 ,
divided
in
3
groups
of
5
each ,
according
to
their
building
and
energy
knowledge .
All
of
them
evaluated
and
debate
on
the
whole
of
photos
taken
( more
than
50 ) ,
and
in
groups ,
their
chose
their
representative
ones ,
explained
to
the
rest
of
the
group
why ,
and
searched
solutions
together ,
categorizing
them
with
the
facilitator
( me )
help .
We
applied
this
tool ,
a
kind
of
visualization
trough
participant
own-‐photos ,
because
it
had
the
power
of
give
objectivity
to
situations
that ,
narrated
by
someone ,
could
be
understood
as
exaggerated
or
just
distorsion-‐perceived .
But
if
someone
takes
a
photo
of
a
particular
situation ,
the
result
is
more
credible .
And
also ,
to
use
those
images
as
triggers
of
debate ,
critical
awareness ,
and
search
of
solutions .
4 .
Insight :
describe
the
insight
you
gained
from
applying
the
tool
you
selected
to
your
challenge
( how
an
insight
affected
your
thinking
about
the
challenge
and
about
design
thinking
more
broadly )
Qualitative
approaches
offer
to
researchers
lots
of
insights
that
quantitative
can´t
do .
So
it
was
a
great
interest
to
choose
this
kind
of
approaches .
Specifically ,
visualization
offered
the
possibility
to
work
with
people
with
different
studies
level ,
building
comfort
and
energy
comprehension ,
age ,
and
interests .
It
was
a
challenge
for
them
( also
for
researchers )
wait
for
photo-‐results
representing
something
so
abstract
such
as
“ comfort ” .
But
either
taking
their
own
photos ,
or
debating
on
them ,
it
was
very
helpful ,
efficient ,
and
grateful .
There
also
appeared
lots
of
insights ,
for
instance
comfort
experts
that
worked
in
this
building ,
and
who
were
part
of
those
participants ,
“ forgive ”
in
some
way
all
the
comfort
lacks
that
they
also
suffered
as
users ,
due
to
their
comprehensive
understanding
of
certain
building
circumstances .
It
was
very
surpresing
for
me ,
because
I
hoped
a
more
critical
point
of
view .
Another
insight
was ,
that
those
comfort
and
energy
experts ,
due
to
their
discomfort
at
workplace ,
needed
to
use
( and
took
their
photos )
about
non-‐efficient
solutions
to
heat
their
internal
spaces ,
for
instance .
When
their
explained
their
shoots ,
the
argued
that
they
knew
that
behavior
was
not
proper
to
pursue
a
sustainable
waste
of
energy ,
with
inefficient
solutions ,
but
they
could
not
work
with
such
cold
indoors .
5 .
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
think
this
tool
has
more
advantages
than
disadvantages .
But
in
a
workplace
environment ,
their
application
has
to
be
followed
and
approved
by
the
institution
managers
or
directors ,
and
also
by
department
chiefs ,
to
avoid
mis-‐understandings
on
what
are
shooted ,
and
why .
If
not ,
it
could
be
looked
with
distrust
and
suspicion .
Planification
is
also
very
important ,
in
the
whole
process ,
to
collect
data
( photos
are
a
kind
of
qualitative
data ,
as
well
as
storytelling ) ,
the
way
to
communicate
facilitators
( researchers )
and
participants ,
the
means
of
transfering
data
( internet ,
whatsapp
or
similar ,
etc ) ,
the
space
to
work
in ,
the
number
of
sessions
and
tasks
to
do
during
each
one ,
and
the
resources
to
facilitate
debate
( press ,
pcs ,
screens ,
pens
and
paper ,
something
sweet
to
help
people
think
in
a
good
mood … ) .
Next
time
I
will
try
to
work
more
efficientlywith
photographs ,
avoiding
silly
conversations
or
silent
gaps ,
to
make
debates
shorter ,
but
more
interesting .

Challenge 3 Years back , I had been requested from my company ’s ( a leading group for building and operating shopping malls across MENA ) technical director to look at the security surveillance systems and how technology can help them to modernize and innovate the surveillance experience . To achieve the mission I used to meet with all the relevant stakeholders , who are the control room operators , the security managers , the mall operations manager , the asset directors and the police department in order to understand all their requirement and classify them . This gave me the opportunity to better understand the needs of each group as well as define the solution criteria . Selection Me and my team selected to use the learning Launch , actually at that time I was n’t aware of that name but I was following the “ seeing is believing ” rule , building a small example in order to document what ’s good and what ’s not , collect stakeholders feedback and any improvement they would like to see or get their approvals to move to bigger or scale installation of the solution . Application Initially , the process started by contacting all the potential surveillance system integrators and discuss their solutions , mapping it to the solution criteria developed after understanding the stakeholder ’s requirements and organise them from the most matching the criteria to the least matching and provide a reason for each design elements whether it is matching or not . I always use KPI matrix template contains 3 columns and multiple rows showing the design criteria , system integrator rating for each KPI and the detailed reason for the rating . This is clearly visualise to the stakeholders the potential solutions . Eventually , we asked all the potential system integrators to install a demo of their solutions in order to gather information related to how easy to install , how long it will take to operate , does the solution provide the promised quality ? . We convert one of our meeting rooms into a selection room , where we installed multiple screens connected to each of the installed solutions . We also provide number for each screen and of course we hidden all the system integrators or manufacture information . We then provide a selection sheet to each of the stakeholders and requested them to rate each of the systems shown in each screen based on the stakeholder ’s needs collected during the initial stage . Surprisingly , the stakeholder ’s selection or voting for the system was in line with our technical recommendation which was not shown to them prior to the selection stage . Management approves to launch the solution at one of the smallest shopping malls we own as a Learning Launch in order to confirm or not the suitable of the solution in a real life situation not only on a technical lab . The learning launch had demonstrate to the business team and the stakeholders the powerful of the solution and how easy is the installation , operation and maintenance
In the first few days , the security team had reported an increase of capturing security incidents inside the shopping malls by 60 % compared with the old system which was still running on parallel with the learning launch system . That was enough to the business to approve the solution to be rolled out at all of our shopping malls . We now have completed the installation for 15 shopping malls with more than 6000 cameras centrally managed from our head offices . Insights What I learnt from conducting the learning launch that it is very important to do the small experiment of the idea in a real live situation outside the lab , along with engaging the relevant customers and continuous gathering their feedback to confirm or enhance the idea . The learning launch gave the stakeholders a starting point to discuss their point of view and agree on a way forward , it also gave them the opportunity to interact with the project team . Approach According to the feedback we received and the successful of the learning launch tool at the above mission , we are now using the learning launch at most if not all of our projects . Learning launch helped us to interact with the business team in their language not using the technical language and that overcome the main problem when interacting with technical teams . We are now using learning launch in other innovation solutions like the malls indoor navigation , the malls Wi - Fi solution and the SMART parking solution which prove every time that it is a powerful tool not just to prove the ideas but to start a strong relation with the customers and drive a massive feedback channel . I will continue using it as the best visualization tool for any of the innovation ideas we propose to the business users .

Challenge & Selection
As a Change manager I work with different kinds of people who sometimes are stuck in old habits . When you want to change the way we are working it is important to create awareness why a certain change is necessary . Often people are used to doing things a certain way and a resilient to change . When listening to their way of working , their concerns , what make them happy , I use their feedback to contextualize my story . With this I ’m able to better tell the story so emotional connection and awareness can be created . This improves the way people look towards the change in a drastic way . It makes it possible to lower their resilience and open their minds to change .
Application
While discussing with a group of handlers at my firm , I was trying to explain the need of the proposed changes and how it will affect their way of working . I was objectively describing all the benefits it had and how it would improve the way they were working . But I quickly realized that they were n’t listening . They were checking their phones , looking at their laptop screens or even just glazing ahead . I stopped my presentation and directed me to the audience . Asking them why they were so untouched by this all . They explained me that they know the drill already . A high profile comes to tell them what has to be changed , the change is implemented . Everyone tries it for one week and afterwards everyone goes back to their old habits and in the end nothing changes . I then realized that I was wrong . I was wrong in how I was presenting . I was too much focused on what I had done and what needed to be done and did not listen to them . To their frustration , their ( past ) experiences . Continuing the way I was doing would lead to the result they just explained .
Insight & approach
That experience was a pivoting point in my project . Would I have continued the way I was working , all my work would have gone to waste . Instead I listened to the handlers their past experience . Which changes were proposed , how they were implemented and why they were quickly abandoned . Often it came from the fact that they did n’t felt if they had something to say in the change . It was just imposed on them . This practice of actively listening to the handlers , understanding what went wrong and really empathizing with them really helped improving my story . I modified some changes , explained it in a different way without losing touch with my audience . This approach triggered a reaction with the handlers and they were hooked . I have created a connection with them . They were onboard and would stay onboard .
This way of storytelling and the course in general really thought me a valuable lesson . You have to be more pragmatic , more structuralized in using the tools provided . It is not something you use when you see that your traditional methods are not working . No it is something you should use from the beginning . By doing so you ’ll will not waste any time and have your connection with your audience more quickly . Moreover your story will stick more and people will relate to it and better understand where something is coming from . Resilience will fade away and success will come !
In my opinion by following this course you will gain valuable experience that goes beyond just theoretical knowledge . I have learned important practical skills I can use on a daily basis . It has and will continue to improve my abilities as a change manager . I will become more successful in
delivering change and the change will stick way easier to the people ’s habits . That ’s why I loved this course and that ’s why I will recommend this course to others !

While discussing with a group of handlers at my firm , I was trying to explain the need of the proposed changes and how it will affect their way of working . I was objectively describing all the benefits it had and how it would improve the way they were working . But I quickly realized that they were n’t listening . They were checking their phones , looking at their laptop screens or even just glazing ahead . I stopped my presentation and directed me to the audience . Asking them why they were so untouched by this all . They explained me that they know the drill already . A high profile comes to tell them what has to be changed , the change is implemented . Everyone tries it for one week and afterwards everyone goes back to their old habits and in the end nothing changes . I then realized that I was wrong . I was wrong in how I was presenting . I was too much focused on what I had done and what needed to be done and did not listen to them . To their frustration , their ( past ) experiences . Continuing the way I was doing would lead to the result they just explained .
Insight & approach
That experience was a pivoting point in my project . Would I have continued the way I was working , all my work would have gone to waste . Instead I listened to the handlers their past experience . Which changes were proposed , how they were implemented and why they were quickly abandoned . Often it came from the fact that they did n’t felt if they had something to say in the change . It was just imposed on them . This practice of actively listening to the handlers , understanding what went wrong and really empathizing with them really helped improving my story . I modified some changes , explained it in a different way without losing touch with my audience . This approach triggered a reaction with the handlers and they were hooked . I have created a connection with them . They were onboard and would stay onboard .
This way of storytelling and the course in general really thought me a valuable lesson . You have to be more pragmatic , more structuralized in using the tools provided . It is not something you use when you see that your traditional methods are not working . No it is something you should use from the beginning . By doing so you ’ll will not waste any time and have your connection with your audience more quickly . Moreover your story will stick more and people will relate to it and better understand where something is coming from . Resilience will fade away and success will come !
In my opinion by following this course you will gain valuable experience that goes beyond just theoretical knowledge . I have learned important practical skills I can use on a daily basis . It has and will continue to improve my abilities as a change manager . I will become more successful in
delivering change and the change will stick way easier to the people ’s habits . That ’s why I loved this course and that ’s why I will recommend this course to others !

Challenge and Description
Storytelling is the tool I take as a challenge on my daily basis since my job includes describing multiple variables that determine a particular final food product . These need to be placed on the right track of the story with the right sequence to make people understand the reason why a certain experiment using x - y - z variables did or did not work .
At the same time , I need to assume they do not know what I have learned from past experiments and starting my storytelling from a “ 101 story ” , depending on my audience , since the results have to be exposed and explained to people on the science , marketing , sales and or business area , therefore , they are not very related to this area , which is food science and food extrusion , this is a technology used to make breakfast cereals , snacks , candies , texturized vegetable proteins , etc . , therefore it is challenging to find the right concepts and track of the story to be told to an specific audience .
Application
I consider storytelling a very important tool in my job since the need of figuring out the right sequence of describing my results to people who are not familiar with the area I work with everyday is crucial for a proper growth of my company , as well as sharing my knowledge with other coworkers . On top of that , everyone on my team work on a synergy and depend on each other ’s results to end up with better end - products , therefore I need to share why I chose to change the variables I did , and relate it with my innovation . What does this mean ? I have been always a very creative person and not very organized , I would always think of an idea and do it right away , sometimes without controlling my variables , just looking for the best final product , taking unorganized notes for future reproduction of my experiments , and take visual notes on my notebook that were useful mostly for me and my development . With time I learned how to control all those variables in a more organized way and my mentors were constantly teaching me how to explain all that I did during my experiments and sometimes even the reason why I changed some variables on my process .
The area that I work on is food extrusion , which is pretty much considered sometimes as a somehow mysterious technology , where sometimes you would get an unexpected result without you knowing the reason why or how it happened . That will make some people crazy , so I needed to put all my
knowledge together and look up for more resources and come up with a story that I thought made sense . The problem was telling that story to people that were not familiar with that area and start with an introduction , intrigue and conclusion , instead of directly going to my conclusion .
Insight and Approach
After taking this course I realized how important is to tell the story the right way and to know your audience , since you need to talk on the right concepts , background facts and organize all the variables in way that people can possibly contribute on alternate solutions . Most of all , I ’m all about sharing my passion and how exciting is to change all those variables in the extrusion process to be able to make an extraordinary product , but I need to organize my ideas , organize my story and create moments of reflection on my audience .
Next time I will apply all I learned from storytelling and incorporate more and more visualization for my audience , since making an abstract idea more public and concrete is key to create a cause and have people to be more involved in your passion and your business .

Challenge
I am a college student and as a part of that I need to communicate with my classmates , professors , and other individual inside and outside of the campus . When there ’s a presentation and I am the one who speak in front of the audience I always prepared myself . I consolidate my idea or topic by a lot of researched about that idea and on how I can present that idea to the audience that they will understand and after that by adding some infographics in my presentation in order to understand my presentation well . I tend to focus on the important points I need to convey . I turn back to my slides to display a process on how the systems work and what technique is used for that system . I concentrate on information that ’s crucial to the outcome I am hoping for . Despite all this , I tend to leave out something that appears just as vital . I forget to answer why everyone in the room needs to hear what I have to say .
Selection
This is where storytelling tool is used . Broadly speaking , a presentation with a story has something more than a list of quantities that verify my presentation also by taking that presentation narrated . A fruitful presentation goes beyond what my slides look like because what really important is the heart of what I am trying to convey to the audience .
Application
To create a good story , I start the process by knowing who is my audience , where do they come from , and what they need because the good story is intended for them . A good story is that my audience will understand what I ’m speaking in front of them by delivering it with the use of a tool of storytelling also connecting the story to the emotion , character , and the value of the audience will help to enhance the story . This is true because every person love stories and it can catch their attention easily . By giving them a sequence of event that moves the story from beginning to an end , and to have a moment of reflection because the audience will tend to remember if it ’s in the form of storytelling . When I already have the attention of the audience , I make sure that I make it last to make them understand what I am saying .
I enhance my storytelling tool in order to help me to develop deeper empathy in the present , and create more meaningful images about the kind of new future , I 'm trying to create . I can also apply some lecture on designed thinking that is not just about process and questions , it 's also about people .
Insight
What I have learned using storytelling tool is that it is useful to deliver your presentation and an idea to the audience after I consolidate my idea and then toolify it when I present it in storytelling form not only in the presentation but also some situation like inspiring people , setting a vision , teaching to someone , and explaining someone that not aware of what you 're saying . I learned to use a sequence of event that will caught an attention of the audience . By getting their attention , I can also get more options and strategies that I can use to solve different problems . This makes storytelling important to everyone in order lead . I learned that no matter how interesting the idea you speak in front our brain has a limitation and become quite
panic but if that person has a good storytelling to the audience , they can conquer that hard situation and will jump back into the deeper part of our brain and will delivet it well .
Approach
Since I learned different insights in this exercise , this tool I used which is storytelling is very effective and I will improve this tool in order to convey more information to the audience . For them to easily understand what I am saying and in order to caught their attention . Also knowing more about what my audience is and where they 're from and improve how to deliver an idea in story form . If I have an opportunity to lead someday , it is also effective to used storytelling tool such as talking to member of the group , motivating people someday and as a listener for them as a good storyteller .

Challenge
I currently run a Bengali nutrient supplementary preparation in my residence . The most frequent challenge that I face is the communication barrier and the improper understanding of my product ’s use while marketing it in the social media platforms to the customers . As social media is highly regarded by many people , it becomes an easy platform to connect with a large crowd , but the observed reach is drastically lower than the projected figures due to the above reasons . Which increases the expense in order to create a makeshift plan to reach the left - out population in the projection .
Selection
I had the option of selecting one tool between storytelling and visualization . On analysing the pros and cons of both the tools , I felt that storytelling would fit the job better as this gave me room to add some different factors that enveloped my product like its use in the history , the process , and the benefits over the conventional style consumption of supplements and more . Which would become even more complicated if I tried the other tools for this job .
Application
Applying the selected tool was fairly easy as the tool had multiple ways it could be used . It involved the creation of a 30 sec video in which a prominent person verbally delivers the catalogue content of the product . The role of the person was to quickly grab the attention of the viewer and to hold them in our content instead of moving without checking . And as well as the person had to verbally deliver .
Insight
The results that was acquired post involving the tool in the customized manner increased the view of the content a follow 30 sec by 40 % and 10 – 29 sec by 60 % of the overall views and bridging the no of views to the projected by 80 % ( to the projected no of required views for the campaign )
Approach
Currently the projection is being increased as the lockdown has increased the duration of using the social media amongst the people . As an step to achieve the target , the visualization tool is also being planned to be implemented to understand and analyse it reach in the crowed .

EXAMPLE REFLECTION – VISUALISATION
Challenge & Selection :
The tool which we used is called tool of Visualization , which we have used for monitoring of Real Time Drilling parameters to have a common understanding of the issues among the various Stakeholders e.g. Rig Forman , Drilling engineer , Drilling Superintendent while drilling for Oil and gas wells . We always use this methodology with our Stakeholders , who belongs to different department / division such as Gas Drilling Department , Oil Drilling Department , and Water Drilling Department . when we are monitoring their wells to avoid the Nonproductive time ( NPT ) or Invisible Lost Time ( ILT ) . Apart when they are performing the trial test for the innovative tool and technology for Oil & gas Drilling Operations .
We always invite Stakeholder for a discussion / pre spud meeting prior to drilling oil and gas wells in the field . To start drilling a well on a paper , to have the better visualization of the 1st plan , 2nd game plan if first go wrong , contingency arrangement , followed with group discussion , sharing previous lesson learnt if any , followed by question and answer session . To have better clarity pertaining to Scope of work , and the Key parameters , Formation which we need especial attention while drilling particular zone . To better understand the pain points of our customers and the area were we can further improve .
Applications :
I start the process , by looking on the data for the offset oil & gas well which we have drilled previously near to the radius zone , to have better understanding of the Stratigraphic column / Formation sequence , reservoir heterogeneity or formation discontinuity . Apart we look for the Standard Operatizing procedure ( SOP ) , Best practices , Industry recommended practices , Training documents if any . If the data or material is not available when we are Drilling Wild Cat well / Exploratory well we used to conduct the interview / discussion with the Subject matter expert / Filed expert who act as the main focal point for the subject well .
As per the Situation we identify all the Stake holders and team members , How can they participate and bring the value / create the value by effectively , safely and time bound drilling that result in Cost Effective completion of wells , and WIN – WIN for all , to have sustainable process .
For this purpose we create a group of 4 - 5 persons , with different Stakeholders in which people are from different field of expertise e.g. Drilling , Geological , Mud Engineering , Reservoir , Mechanical , Electrical , electronic etc . which have different areas of interest / services .
Each group have Separate paper board that they can write directly or make the use of sticky notes to put their comments .
We give them 3 - 4 question to answer at a time , Such as 1 ) what are the Key parameters we have not paid attention while drilling the previous well , which are missing at the Real time Log while monitoring the wells . 2 ) What parameters and scale you would like to display in Real Time Plots to have better visualization and identifying the deviation from the normal trends . 3 ) What different we can do / implement this time to avoid the issues which we have faced last time . We provide those 20 – 25 minutes to discuss the question and note down the points to be displayed in the graphic .
BCCH : Company General Use
Afterwards we have answer for all the three question from the different groups and the ask them to put on the board . Then look for the similarity of the answer , followed by further group discussion additional points noted for the Real Time Display .
Once the discussion is over we create the master copy of the template and create the new display with new look from the group discussion , then formulate a revised display which integrates their feedback and anticipated changes that which the group agrees .
Insight & Approach :
The lesson learned from conducting this forum with multiple experts especially the revised graphic display after incorporating their feedback is much more important while implementing and understanding of the problem what they are working to solve it . It gives them sense of ownership , more involvement because they were involve from the beginning of the project . The display help them to understand the issues thoroughly and simultaneously help them to identify the causative factor and to further drill down to the root cause of the issues .
Which help them to create the display from the scratch based on the suitability and as per requirement .
They were able to quickly identify the gap , which need to be bridge immediately to avoid Non Productive Time / Individual Loss Time .
This also help them to prepare the strong contingency plan with the current / past data .
Meanwhile , I found the most valuable aspect is the collaboration with the different discipline to address the issues with the same goal . Subsequently I will priorities the visualization work as the initiating point for the sequence of design thinking . Afterwards the revised display will be incorporated based on their feedback , which will assist as a reference tool throughout the drilling process of the well .

We give them 3 - 4 question to answer at a time , Such as 1 ) what are the Key parameters we have not paid attention while drilling the previous well , which are missing at the Real time Log while monitoring the wells . 2 ) What parameters and scale you would like to display in Real Time Plots to have better visualization and identifying the deviation from the normal trends . 3 ) What different we can do / implement this time to avoid the issues which we have faced last time . We provide those 20 – 25 minutes to discuss the question and note down the points to be displayed in the graphic .
BCCH : Company General Use
Afterwards we have answer for all the three question from the different groups and the ask them to put on the board . Then look for the similarity of the answer , followed by further group discussion additional points noted for the Real Time Display .
Once the discussion is over we create the master copy of the template and create the new display with new look from the group discussion , then formulate a revised display which integrates their feedback and anticipated changes that which the group agrees .
Insight & Approach :
The lesson learned from conducting this forum with multiple experts especially the revised graphic display after incorporating their feedback is much more important while implementing and understanding of the problem what they are working to solve it . It gives them sense of ownership , more involvement because they were involve from the beginning of the project . The display help them to understand the issues thoroughly and simultaneously help them to identify the causative factor and to further drill down to the root cause of the issues .
Which help them to create the display from the scratch based on the suitability and as per requirement .
They were able to quickly identify the gap , which need to be bridge immediately to avoid Non Productive Time / Individual Loss Time .
This also help them to prepare the strong contingency plan with the current / past data .
Meanwhile , I found the most valuable aspect is the collaboration with the different discipline to address the issues with the same goal . Subsequently I will priorities the visualization work as the initiating point for the sequence of design thinking . Afterwards the revised display will be incorporated based on their feedback , which will assist as a reference tool throughout the drilling process of the well .

Challenge & Selection
One of our manufacturing sites is considered as the most dangerous work place . There are thousands of risk events every year caused by accidents knowingly or unknowingly . These accidents not only cause severe health / safety issues but also lead to huge financial loss .
Our team grouped together with the operations team to analyze the problem and realized that quality data was being captured for the above risk events . We then decided to use the Learning Launch tool to tackle this problem and prevent the occurrence of similar accidents and promote workplace safety as per below assessment :
a. Analysis of historical accidents is crucial . Based on the results of root cause analysis , proper
actions can be taken by safety professionals and management to eliminate or lessen the identified causes .
b. It is also noted that one major factor contributing to the risk of an accident is the presence of
destructive items such as distorted & damaged equipment , sharp articles nearby . Mitigating strategies can be made accordingly after identification of such matters .
Application
To come up with a prototype application , we started analyzing the problem from two perspectives : one from management ’s policies and other one was technology driven . We have presented our ideas and got acceptance by Leadership for further action . Dedicated web portal was designed to enhance the safety management processes such as safety education and interactive training focusing on individual / organizational characteristics such as workers ’ attitudes towards safety to increase their awareness . This portal was even integrated with visualization based on large number of disaster study reports generated after a fatal accident providing a complete description of the accident in the form of unstructured text data that were manually analyzed to classify the causes with an objective to find hidden patterns and present the trends that emerge from the data . Insight & Approach
Our application had helped the sites to understand the causal factors of the risk events with intuitive visualization which clearly illustrated that the accidents are considered an outcome of interaction among physical conditions of the work site , environmental factors , administrative issues and human error . Feedback received was that the effect of this strategy for preventing injuries was limited due to their reactive nature .
We would like to move towards the AI based risk model that emphasizes more on automatic classification of incidents from a massive number of reports into different cause categories which will help in better understanding of reports , predict and prevent the occurrence of site accidents .

1 . Challenge and Selection
I am a member of a research lab specialized in social robots in healthcare . We work closely with patients , therapists and hospital managers to design and develop social robot behaviors and conduct experiments . These projects involve people with very different backgrounds and interests , i.e. engineers , psychologists , sociologists , administrators , etc . Finding a common language that everyone understands is crucial to reduce misunderstandings and ending up developing the wrong solution . I have selected Visualization because I needed to achieve a shared understanding of the problem in hand and the potential applications of new features we develop .
2 . Application
I have used quite basic drawings like straw man , straw “ robot ” , dialogue boxes and arrows to ask stakeholders about what they expect from the project and to start the discussion on the scope and boundaries to consider . I have also used sticky notes of different colors and let them use all resources freely while I ask them questions to answer . I have used several variants of this visualization tool in two stages of our projects . First , with therapists and hospital managers to explore the problem and how we can be helpful . During this stage , I splitted managers and therapists in several multidisciplinar groups ( less than 6 people each ) and met them separately , to improve interactivity within the groups . I asked them questions such as :
- What would you change to make it more realistic ?
- Which elements are missing ?
- How the depicted situation satisfies your expectations about this project ?
Secondly , when meeting with patients , we depicted some of the potential solutions to see how they would interact with the social robots and the intended behaviors . Some of the questions asked during this stage were :
- What would you change in the graphic to feel more comfortable ?
- What would you like to change in the graphic to be excited about it ?
Once all questions were discussed , I asked them to write down together the most relevant ideas and to individually order them in a priority list . After the session , I created a revised graphic including all the insights obtained during the discussion .
3 . Insights and Approach
During this exercise I have learned what a great tool Visualization is to overcome differences in academic backgrounds and to have a common language , reducing the risk of unmatched mental models and increasing the chances for a shared understanding . When people talk the same language the interaction becomes more fluent and productive , and everyone is on the same page about what to expect from the project . Also , people become more participative and are more self - confident to share their ideas .

CHALLENGE Storytelling is a central part of every great brand . Every great brand has a story behind their product , services and institution . These stories connect with the emotions , characters , the value of people , every day , using the product . As a student it is quite tricky to understand the process of storytelling , as not being as experienced as the experts . For example , while presenting in the class , it becomes a challenge to touch each and everyone ’s mind and heart . We get too involved in the concept that we fail to bring about stories relating towards it . Most of the time the motivational speakers or any public speakers uses the techniques or tool of storytelling in order to get connected with the audience and to build emotional and deeper connectivity with the speaker . Storytelling is a great way to make your consumers use your products with much deeper thought towards it . Any speaker going on about his product launch with a deep and insightful story , maybe regarding his personal experiences , creates more value to the product and services that he is rendering to the customers . SELECTION The tool which is used by me is storytelling . As a student I would stress more on this tool since , the way I see it whenever a lecturer tries to make us understand about a particular topic , they usually start of with a story . It may not be a story related towards their personal experience but , maybe relating towards the people who built it , for instance , a product . APPLICATION The key element on delivering a good story is to know your audience . The way I see it , if the audience is young and enthusiastic , start with some jokes or some funny insights on how you thought things were silly before you used a product or services , so that you can ease up and get the floor comfortable . For instance , I personally relate to anything that has to deal with the persons experience whether it may be a product , emotional support , or anything of that matter . Emotional advertising help humanise companies and build a partnership with their customers . Storytelling is an even more effective tool when the stories are coming from people whose lives the brand has changed . When you begin with a story , the audience will be on the edge of their seat trying to connect with you , and boost the interest of the topic and the way you present it and you also get comfortable along the way . The best way to keep the audience in the edge of their seat is to give a good suspense on your story at the end so , they can really think about it and leave them hanging . But , not too suspenseful that it makes them more confused . It ’s also good to have good questions that really makes
the audience guess and work their brains but , it is also equally important that you provide with an answer so , that they wo n’t be concentrated on the question and lose your attention . INSIGHTS AND APPROACH Storytelling is the contrast between problem - solving and cause creating . A good story is about creating a cause . Cause ignites and unites people . Like I said , the key element is to know who is your audience , from where they have come and what they need . The second part of the good story is to ask straightforward series of questions . When you listen to a great storyteller , there is a clear sequence of events that moves the story from the beginning to the end . This storytelling tool is adopted everywhere , in institutions , companies , advertisers etc . People even come up with stories to pitch an idea to an investment firm . That is how you see the importance and how these storytelling tools help you with recognition , building your reputation and get the audience your attention . It is important to approach your storytelling in a very articulate way . You need to have a proper sequence in your storytelling . You can not jump from one story to another with the previous one being left in the middle . Always complete your story . Storytelling allows you to create energy , passion and excitement around something and about your concept or to build relation with people and to connect with peer group , audience and fellow mates during your presentations . It helps you to deliver the concept well and in a comprehensive manner without losing interest of your audience .

Challenge
I work in consulting , and a major retailer asked us to help them understand how they could make their in - store environments “ more digital ” . They have a long - term plan to move towards stores which are almost fully automated and wanted to understand how they could design a store which moved in this direction . Their brief to us was to assess ‘ what is ’ – that is , the current in - store experience for customers and staff , and explore how staff and customers in different countries would want to experience stores in the future . From this , we could then define ‘ what if ’ – the criteria needed to develop a prototype store , and ideas about what the experience should be like .
Selection
We ’ve worked with design thinking methodologies in the past , and given our objective was to help define ‘ what if ’ we opted for a version of the mind - mapping tool . However , as the project was international , had a limited budget and was fast - turnaround , we opted not to bring customers into the room at the end of the project ( co - creation , which is how this technique is explained in the video lectures ) . Instead we would capture their views through qualitative research and play this back to stakeholders in the mind - mapping session .
Application
We started off by conducting our qualitative research in different countries . This meant going to the stores , interviewing staff and customers , capturing pictures and video of the store environments and also recording how long customers spent in store , where they went , and so - on . From this we created a detailed picture of ‘ what is ’ , which includes current customer journey maps for the highest priority customer missions our client was interested in ( e.g. buying a new product , upgrading their existing product , and more ) .
Subsequently we brought together all of the key stakeholders that had an interest in this problem in a workshop , and started off by giving them an overview of ‘ what is ’ . We put up pictures , video and other research materials on the walls , and after our overview asked clients to immerse themselves in these findings on their own . A few minutes later we put them into small groups to discuss what they ’d seen and come up with some common themes about the current experience and how it could be improved .
Next , we facilitated a discussion amongst everyone in the room to draw out these themes , and then together we wrote ‘ what if ’ customer journeys – that is , ideally how customers would want their store experience to go . Once we ’d created an overview of these journeys together , each individual came up with ideas about how to deliver this and wrote them on post - it notes , before placing them under the relevant part of the ‘ what if ’ customer journey . The final step was to review these ideas as a group and decide which were the most promising , which we did via dot voting ( giving everyone stickers and asking them to place them on the ideas they thought best ) .
Insight
We learnt a lot from this approach . Three insights stood out for me :
• We disconfirmed a hypothesis we had started the project with – that quick service was important for all customers . In fact , we found this varied by a lot by mission ( i.e. what the customer was trying to achieve ) . People who had come to the store with a specific problem to be solved wanted someone to come and talk to them straight away , but those thinking about buying a new product appreciated a bit more time alone to browse , get comfortable etc .
• Therefore , we needed to target staff on people wanting to solve problems ; those browsing were often happier interacting with machines than people . This meant that the store would need different zones , with a different atmosphere and different levels of technology .
• One thing that emerged as a big problem for customers was waiting – once a customer had decided what they want to do , they were only prepared to wait a few minutes to get it done . This meant we needed to focus on using both technology and people to minimise waiting times , and also make the store environment more pleasant and entertaining ( to reduce the pain of waiting ) .
Approach
We found conducting detailed research before the workshop and then giving an overview to stakeholders was immensely helpful – this primed them on what we were trying to achieve and helped focus their minds . However , not being able to have real customers in the workshop was a downside – I think this would have really helped our clients understand the problems they were trying to solve . These customers could also have helped come up with new ideas ( co - creation ) , which can be a really effective ( and fun ) technique .

However , not being able to have real customers in the workshop was a downside – I think this would have really helped our clients understand the problems they were trying to solve . These customers could also have helped come up with new ideas ( co - creation ) , which can be a really effective ( and fun ) technique .

Challenge & Selection Parents and guardians of children ages 3 - 12 often deal with issues of underarm odor . Many young preschoolers and grade - schoolers require deodorants or antiperspirants . As children begin to mature , hormones change , and they naturally begin to develop bacteria . As they sweat , the sweat dries on their skin , and the mixture of bacteria , dirt , and sweat results in underarm odor . Puberty also leads to the growth of underarm hair where bacteria can build up . If the child has underarm hair , they will have armpit odor , especially when they sweat . Children may be caught unaware by this developing change , which can lead to embarrassment and insecurities . Parents spend time struggling to console and protect their children from teasing and ridicule due to underarm odor . Parents need a solution that is affordable , non - irritating , and child - friendly for preschool and grade - school aged children . Gentle enough for young skin , chemical free , contain no added alcohols or harsh ingredients , not harmful if ingested or improperly used , and that is all - natural . I will start this process by using the Storytelling Design Tool . Storytelling is a great tool to use because it gets to the human side of individuals . It allows us to put people and their experiences first and gives us the opportunity to show a personal connection to the ideas we are sharing . Application I began the empathetic process of learning more about my consumers through telling my story and showing that I could personally relate to their situation . I have been a parent of small children who suffered through the challenges of stinky underarms . Although they were bathed and wore clean clothes daily , I began noticing a musty odor in my toddler ’s underarms which became more intrusive as they aged . Baby powders only temporarily masked the smell . Besides initiating dietary changes , which upset them , I purchased adult strength deodorants and antiperspirants that caused breakouts and irritations making it difficult for them to adopt the habit of using it daily . My children also had insecurities , suffered through embarrassment , and were hesitant to participate in activities which caused heavy perspiration and underarm odor . I became concerned about their self - esteem and emotional state - of - mind . Sharing my story allowed parents to have a more open and honest conversation with me and allowed me to listen to their stories . I used their feedback , both verbal and non - verbal , to make observations about their wants , needs , and thought processes . As parents , we all have the same concerns … what can I do as a parent to ease their daily stresses , make their lives better , and allow them to enjoy being a child . Insight & Approach My investigation uncovered a lack of child options and nearly every consumer deodorant product currently on the market has been developed for adults . I also found that parents have been using adult formulated deodorant and antiperspirant products on children which has caused major underarm breakouts and skin irritation . The insight I have is that I need to provide a product that could be used safely on young , sensitive underarms . My consumers need an affordable all - natural , long - lasting organic deodorant for children .
Upon completion of my Learning Launch , I created a blend of organic odor absorbent and all - natural fragrant ingredients that were gentle enough for use on children ’s underarms . I determined that I needed participation from a group of individuals in order to orchestrate small hands - on experiments . I was able to enlist support from a group of fifteen parents for initial testing of my prototype over a four week timespan . I scheduled two separate interviews with each . The first was prior to initial product use to discover any known child allergies which could interfere with testing , to become aware of issues with adult antiperspirants if currently used , to provide the tube of deodorant , and to instruct parents to monitor how their child liked the product . The second was at the conclusion of the four week period to gather data such as whether the child remembered to use it daily , how their skin responded to using it , and whether it actually controlled their sweating and odor . The pilot contributed to favorable consumer responses which has allowed me to consider travel size deodorant tubes that pre - school and grade - school students could store in backpacks to use after PE , outside play , activities and sports . It would also allow parents to store them in purses or personal bags for portability convenience . I believe storytelling is the best approach to take for this ideation . Who actually wants to share family secrets openly and honestly to the world ? Getting into the minds of consumers on such a sensitive subject can be very uncomfortable and such an invasion of personal privacy . Being empathetic towards my consumers and sharing my story allows comfort levels to increase , thus allowing more sharing of their deepest thoughts .

Giuseppe Hassan Date : Friday , November 13th , 2020
TOOL : Storytelling
A short summary : The company in which I want to apply what I have learned in this course . TG Company of biodegradable cleaning products , established in 1997 . Even though it ’s a small company it has developed confidence in it ’s products , also open the way to a certain set of family products with specific uses , with great acceptance on clients , and also has built a name of REAL environmental friendly products . Products are more expensive than others , but with real results and keeping their promise of “ Kills 99,999 germs ” , still there ’s a group of maybe “ not well informed ” clients , that still need to be reached .
Challenge : Make all products accesible and not jsut for people that want to leave a footprint for future generations . Make the products to speak by the results that you will have when you use them , the problem is that people will see the price first and there is a gap , between quality , results and price . The people have lost their confidence in most brands , they all preach the same , and the company needs to regained their trust and make them see that TG is the “ Real deal ” . Also one problem is that this products come in just a few presentations , and can only be purchased in big supermarkets and not everyone has one near .
Selection : I selected “ Storytelling ” because in short , I consider that when you have a family of products with a cause ( The Green cause ) you have to hear the results from real people / users , thay is why storytelling is a great resource and way to dig more into what the future products can become . Not hearing the benefits from the company people .
Application : Creating different groups of potential costumers , might give us insights , personal details and information about what are their specific needs and what do they expect from Biocleaning products . Each group divided by ethnicity and economical situation and no more of 15 people , this way we can use the company facilities and do n’t get into additional costs . Preparing small surveys and product sample sachets .
Insights : We will have valuable infromation , thsi will prepare us to create a new set of more accesible formats and presentations for the products . Also we will be able to identify which areas need to be addresed in a more agressive and effective way , not just using the Big supermarkets chain , and offering to small retail- ers the possibility to offer this type of products with a good profit and making their product stock bigger .
One negative point is that when you get into small retailers , they tend to focused in price not in quality therefore the virtues of products will be diminished at the moment of exposure / sale . Unfortunately when you gather people with low incomes or low knowledge in Bio - products , they will omit those benefits .
Approach : What we can do better in the future ? . Apply the same tool but just before creating more and different presentations for other products , keep in mind the needs of people that are not well intended or into the “ Green cause ” and lead the way for them to learn and get into it
In terms of development : Do a research in creating a “ Cheaper ” line of Biocleaning products - always with high quality standards , keeping in mind that not just everyone can visit and purchase products in supermarkets . Also consider when formulating new products , after this exercise will give us more valuable information previous mass production .

The competition has two phases . In the first phase , it is necessary to produce a short movie explaining some concepts to the evaluators . She is student at the school inside the University campus . She ask me for help and we choose to use some of the tools from the Design Thinking method to explore alternatives . Selection : First of all , we select a mind map tool to study the concepts like gamification , mascot an why is important the project to have a mascot . We tried to answer these questions using this tool , because of the ease of use of the tool and because we believe this tool is more appropriate to win challenge . Mind map organize insights and relationships between ideas . On of the mind map concepts is " A mind map is a diagram for representing tasks , words , concepts , or items linked to and arranged around a central concept or subject using a non - linear graphical layout that allows the user to build an intuitive framework around a central concept . " ( https://www.mindmapping.com/mind-map.php ) Application : We talked about the theme with our family including my wife and my son to the idea generation process and we made a wide research in websites to understand concepts before the brainstorming , a very important tool at this phase . All ideas were put on post- it cards in the wall and it was possible to organize de ideas . We used this first work as data to produce a short movie explaining the main objective to develop a mascot for the gamification project . The movie is a requirement of the competition . Insight : We believe that the tool expanded the vision of the challenge to create a mascot . Many topics were totally new from the first talk with my daughter . The contribution of my wife and my son and our research in the internet to study concepts was precious to do a detailed mind map . With the data organized with the mind map we will try to use the other knowledge from Design Thinking to produce the mascot . We think that answering the questions What if , What wows and What works considering the specific target of the competition , we will make a good mascot proposal .
Approach : I think a good idea to the next time will be produce the mind map in an electronic tool , because it would be possible to share with more people and discuss with an online tool as Google Meet or Microsoft Teams to increase more and more ideias to the mind map . For continuing this project we will try to answer the key questions like " What if " . We think the mind map will be helpful to develop many ideas considering that the mascot must be attractive , charismatic , must have exciting colors , connect people with the gamification project and must be a tool of marketing . The mascot could be a person , an humanized animal or an object . We will create some different routes for possible designs of the mascot in the mind map . For " What wows " we figure out to use a non - orthodox vision , blending two or more different concepts , humanizing objects and animals at the same time to design the mascot , for example . We hope an improbable vision could surprise the appraiser and we will use de mind map to think about these questions too . I believe we will create a great proposal using the ideas from the mind map and my daughter will be a finalist of the process . I think I am able to use the methodology in other situations at my work to create solutions for complex problems that solve customer needs . Thanks a lot for the opportunity do watch this course .

Visualizing always challenges our community of designers , coders , and developers to take on the pressing issues of our day . Each data visualization challenge involves creators working from the same data set to compete for unique prizes . Data visualization has changed our society considerably . These are some of the challenges faced in today ’s world
VR
Virtual reality is going to have a huge impact on the potential for data visualizations , allowing people to interact with data in the third dimension for the first time .
AR
Augmented reality may well be the single biggest change that we are going to see regarding the use of data visualizations .
The challenge that data visualization is going to have is that those creating them need to make sure they are doing so in an understandable and non - obtrusive way . It creates a new dynamic , where the data overlaid needs to be clear , concise and not distracting . It ’s a fine line to balance on and a real challenge for those who are used to creating traditional visualizations .
Development
VR and AR are likely to be interesting technologies in the future , but for the time being , we are still going to be consuming the majority of our data through traditional 2D screens . As the number of data visualizations increases in almost every area , the chances of yours standing out decreases too as you ’re trying to get to the top of a larger and larger pile .
Differing Levels Of Understanding
As data has spread throughout society one of the elements that has become evident is that there is a huge variation in the levels of understanding . This could even be in a high powered business setting , where people who are used to seeing basic excel graphs do not understand anything more complex . The idea of interactivity within visualized data is not something they would ever feel necessary . However , there are others who would benefit from more complex visualizations , where they can see as much as possible in as smaller space as they can , through interactive design or just more complex features .
Technical Skills
Technical skills to first understand and translate the data then create visualizations around the results . We already have a shortage of data scientists and people who can feed the right data to the right people , so this is going to be a key challenge for the creation of decent data visualizations that can pinpoint important data .
What is Data Visualization
A data visualization ( often referred to as a chart or graph ) is a graphical representation of data . Its goal is to convey information in a clear and succinct format .
Data visualization is as much an art as it is a science . Selecting the right type of chart and adding features that will enhance the visualization while keeping it readable can be quite challenging .
Selection of Data Visualization
There are many of types of charts that are easily available in most data visualization products . The common chart that are used
• Line chart • Column chart • Bar chart • Pie chart • Stacked Bar chart • Scatter plot • Box Plot
Application of Data Visualization
Data Visualization Application enables users to visualize data , draw insights and understand it better . It allows people to organize and present information intuitively . People can understand pictures better than tables that contain rows and columns . By visualizing data , you are able to ask more questions and quickly find answers . You can combine visualizations into a dashboard . Dashboards are useful because they allows you to relate different views of information visually . 1.Tableau Tableau is a business intelligence app that is among the leading software when it comes to data visualization . It is quite straightforward in using , thanks to its intuitive drag and drop functionality . 2.Roambi It is a mobile - based website application for analyzing and visualizing data that revolutionizes the way users leverage business intelligence .
3 Qlik Data analysis is essential when it comes to improving your enterprise . With Qlik , you can visualize any information you have , and thus , analyze it faster . It enables you to create interactive reports and dashboards with stunning graphical and chart displays . 4.Salesforce Einstein Analytics Initially developed for mobile , Salesforce Einstein Analytics can now work on smartwatches . It enables you to leverage data and develop readable charts , images and graphical depictions of any information you have . This application shines when it comes to assisting users in comprehending their enterprises without the need for a background in analysis . 5.HighCharts Highcharts is an excellent tool , particularly if you know JavaScript . The reason for this is that its library is written entirely in JavaScript and leverages various formats to display charts on different browsers and smart gadgets . It can process JSON data on the go and represent it in diagrams as per the preference of the user . Insights through data visualization Data visualization is capable of producing significant levels of insight , provided that said data is extracted in a clear and non - convoluted manner . Such insights can be used to delve deeper into data sets , and have the ability to extract actionable information for businesses and clients alike . For example , if an organization has been found to be operating at a loss , it would be wise to draw on data to identify where changes can be made . Approach to data visualization Approach to data visualization mainly depends on your goals and audience . To present the information engagingly and make viewers stick around , you should go with an infographic . Meanwhile , if your audience is a board of busy people , you should use a pie or a bar chart – this way , they 'll be able to understand the information quickly . With that said , you should get to know your audience first , then decide on the data visualization technique .

### Input: Visualization
Visualizing always challenges our community of designers , coders , and developers to take on the pressing issues of our day . Each data visualization challenge involves creators working from the same data set to compete for unique prizes . Data visualization has changed our society considerably . These are some of the challenges faced in today ’s world
VR
Virtual reality is going to have a huge impact on the potential for data visualizations , allowing people to interact with data in the third dimension for the first time .
AR
Augmented reality may well be the single biggest change that we are going to see regarding the use of data visualizations .
The challenge that data visualization is going to have is that those creating them need to make sure they are doing so in an understandable and non - obtrusive way . It creates a new dynamic , where the data overlaid needs to be clear , concise and not distracting . It ’s a fine line to balance on and a real challenge for those who are used to creating traditional visualizations .
Development
VR and AR are likely to be interesting technologies in the future , but for the time being , we are still going to be consuming the majority of our data through traditional 2D screens . As the number of data visualizations increases in almost every area , the chances of yours standing out decreases too as you ’re trying to get to the top of a larger and larger pile .
Differing Levels Of Understanding
As data has spread throughout society one of the elements that has become evident is that there is a huge variation in the levels of understanding . This could even be in a high powered business setting , where people who are used to seeing basic excel graphs do not understand anything more complex . The idea of interactivity within visualized data is not something they would ever feel necessary . However , there are others who would benefit from more complex visualizations , where they can see as much as possible in as smaller space as they can , through interactive design or just more complex features .
Technical Skills
Technical skills to first understand and translate the data then create visualizations around the results . We already have a shortage of data scientists and people who can feed the right data to the right people , so this is going to be a key challenge for the creation of decent data visualizations that can pinpoint important data .
What is Data Visualization
A data visualization ( often referred to as a chart or graph ) is a graphical representation of data . Its goal is to convey information in a clear and succinct format .
Data visualization is as much an art as it is a science . Selecting the right type of chart and adding features that will enhance the visualization while keeping it readable can be quite challenging .
Selection of Data Visualization
There are many of types of charts that are easily available in most data visualization products . The common chart that are used
• Line chart • Column chart • Bar chart • Pie chart • Stacked Bar chart • Scatter plot • Box Plot
Application of Data Visualization
Data Visualization Application enables users to visualize data , draw insights and understand it better . It allows people to organize and present information intuitively . People can understand pictures better than tables that contain rows and columns . By visualizing data , you are able to ask more questions and quickly find answers . You can combine visualizations into a dashboard . Dashboards are useful because they allows you to relate different views of information visually . 1.Tableau Tableau is a business intelligence app that is among the leading software when it comes to data visualization . It is quite straightforward in using , thanks to its intuitive drag and drop functionality . 2.Roambi It is a mobile - based website application for analyzing and visualizing data that revolutionizes the way users leverage business intelligence .
3 Qlik Data analysis is essential when it comes to improving your enterprise . With Qlik , you can visualize any information you have , and thus , analyze it faster . It enables you to create interactive reports and dashboards with stunning graphical and chart displays . 4.Salesforce Einstein Analytics Initially developed for mobile , Salesforce Einstein Analytics can now work on smartwatches . It enables you to leverage data and develop readable charts , images and graphical depictions of any information you have . This application shines when it comes to assisting users in comprehending their enterprises without the need for a background in analysis . 5.HighCharts Highcharts is an excellent tool , particularly if you know JavaScript . The reason for this is that its library is written entirely in JavaScript and leverages various formats to display charts on different browsers and smart gadgets . It can process JSON data on the go and represent it in diagrams as per the preference of the user . Insights through data visualization Data visualization is capable of producing significant levels of insight , provided that said data is extracted in a clear and non - convoluted manner . Such insights can be used to delve deeper into data sets , and have the ability to extract actionable information for businesses and clients alike . For example , if an organization has been found to be operating at a loss , it would be wise to draw on data to identify where changes can be made . Approach to data visualization Approach to data visualization mainly depends on your goals and audience . To present the information engagingly and make viewers stick around , you should go with an infographic . Meanwhile , if your audience is a board of busy people , you should use a pie or a bar chart – this way , they 'll be able to understand the information quickly . With that said , you should get to know your audience first , then decide on the data visualization technique .

Challenge and Selection
The tool to be used for this assignment is Mind Mapping in order to dive into the user
experience of different stakeholders within the government service delivery process and create
a set of ideas that will improve government to citizen ( G2C ) services through e - Services . Firstly
we came up with a design challenge to define our scope . The company ’s mandate is already cut
out by government which identified 100 key services that are currently provided to citizens
manually . Therefore the team is tasked with automating government services with the aim of
improving processing time , service updates to citizens , mode of payment and ease of access .
This technique will be used to understand the end to end process of acquiring a service from the
citizen stand point and the validation process that government agents go through in order to
deliver the output required . We shall then follow each pattern design a criteria that will enable
quick and easy automation of trial products that we can test .
Application
The team set off on a customer experience journey by deploying ethnographic techniques such
as observing and interviewing stakeholders . The aim of this approach was to identify the steps
to acquire services and patterns for example the number of trips a citizen takes to acquire a
birth certificate and the hidden requirements that are not documents . This was summed up in
the process below :
The trips mentioned above were observed and experienced by the team . Therefore we
concluded that it takes at least 7 trips to acquire a government document .
This gave us more insight into proximity between points of access , cost of each trip , how many
photocopies etc . We also classified each demographic and their behavior during each step .
Eventually we discovered certain patterns whereby citizens between 16 and 35 years of age
were impatient and felt overburdened by the steps , others over 40 felt the sense of importance
that the government put into delivering the service .
Insight and approach
After studying the patterns critically , the team began drafting sets of solutions by first designing
a criteria statement to guide the prototyping team on how to shorten the steps , eliminate
duplication and reduce processing . Through their individual experiences , every team member
designed a flow that they felt could solve the problem at hand . These shared insights were
slowly grouped together into conditions mainly centered on the value proposition that the
platform could deliver such as shortening / automation of the application form , digitizing payment
and notifying citizens on the status of their applications . The prototypes also had to incorporate
integration with external verification systems for example the national identification agency , land
registry , business registry and police criminal database . The aim of integration was to reduce
the amount of input data required to fill an application .
In short the team was able to come up with 3 trips to apply for government services as a phase
one approach to created awareness of e - services . Phase two will focus on improvements and
delivery of electronic certificates to citizens at the comfort of their homes .

Challenge
In my organization , we had partnered with a retailer to implement our new technology in their Ecommerce applications ( iOS & Android ) . The purpose of the tool is two - fold :
1 ) The tool is supposed to draw in new users to our category , as it ’s employs a novelty and
enhanced user experience
2 ) Drive conversion rates higher , because if consumers are able to use the tool , it should reduce
the barriers to decide to buy online
My challenge here is that despite successfully driving conversion rates higher ( 50 - 100 % increase ) across four other partners , our conversion rate was actually negatively impacted in this partner , the first time we have seen this occurrence . Given that this was negatively impacting for this standalone implementation , we set out to understand what is wrong and how we can rectify the issue so that we have a positive ROI when users engage with the tool .
Selection
The tool we utilized in this instance is Mind Mapping . Mind mapping helps to visualize the processes , patterns and relationships that impact the problem , so we are better able to draw some main themes , and help create a design criteria that addresses one or more of these themes .
Application
We wanted to understand all the factors that impacted the performance of the tool . We held a 2 - hour sessions with all the key stakeholders , and started putting post - it ’s on the wall with all of the different factors that can impact the outcome , whether they are positive / negative or unknown .
Once all the members had contributed what they had to say , we organized the post it ’s in to 6 key themes through a lengthy discussion , they were :
Consumer Perception
User Interface
User Experience
Tool Location in the app
User profile
Functionality
Insight
We immediately realized that we did n’t get any input from the consumer , and our items categorized under “ consumer perception ” were purely assumptions … This is a limitation of mind mapping and should have been addressed at some stage during the design thinking process .
Because we had many successful implementations , we were able to create comparisons between this implementation and other implementations which worked . This helped to build a number of ideas , mainly UI / UX . We would have to build some A / B testing & iterations with the retailer to be able to actually understand whether these were the cause .
C1 - Internal use
Two of the sections ( user profile & tool ’s location in the app ) could actually be investigated through data analysis , so we see these as fast and achievable next steps to be able to investigate .
Approach
I believe this approach was the correct approach to help understand the challenge . In terms of other approaches and more specifically tools at my disposal , a learning launch would be very complementary in helping to test new hypotheses based on the finding of my mind mapping . For example , we could change the design or the user experience in one or many Learning Launches and observe the outcome . If all stakeholders agree that one of the learning launches yields the desired result , we can choose that our ‘ winner ’ and ‘ scale ’ the idea by making this launch the sole product moving forward .

The Dreaded Staff Call
Challenge & Selection
I am part of a group of middle level managers who attend our director ’s weekly staff call . Our team is comprised of members of differing time zones and job duties . Our calls generally follow an agenda where I am the scribe and take notes , ensure all pertinent information is captured and then shared on a corporate share drive . Some team members are creative types who are responsible for visionary goals and directives , other are process oriented and others perform more technical development type of tasks . We span from Mountain to Eastern time zones . What is consistently missing from this call is enthusiasm , engagement and a perceived good use of the team ’s time . How I determined this gap is the multitude of times comments need to be repeated because someone was multi - tasking or not concentrating on the call at hand . In addition , several members of the team are not required to provide any feedback or information to the greater team and therefore disengage during the call altogether .
I set out to choose a small sampling of stakeholders on the team . I chose one representative from each time zone , as well as one member from each genre of work described above . This small band of volunteers are setting off to define the scope of this project , what items of discussion should be included , how all the team fits together and ultimately iterating on changes we could make to the staff call structure to improve the overall retention and experience .
Application
Our initial meeting was set up to identify , from an individual user perspective , how they view the weekly staff call ( empathy and journey mapping ) . How does the staff call help or hinder their daily / weekly work duties and expectations ? This step we are reviewing the current process and reflecting on which ( if any ) items work or do n’t work from the user perspective .
Users will define from their perspective what creates an environment that encourages participation , retention and engagement . Users will define what adds value for them individually , what would make them engaged ? The team will use virtual sticky notes to participate . If possible , future meetings will utilize a telepresence or Skype type of meeting where each participant can “ see ” the other . This would be to ensure the group is engaged in dialog and focused on the task at hand .
Since the hardest part , is starting , I gave a very high overview of how my visualization looks FOR ME . My goal is to give my personal visual as a guidepost to engaging the larger group to think outside what we do today . I have put together a visual that shows the staff call in the center , surrounded by all the items which stop me from being engaged in the conversation and how those activities reduce my retention and input to the larger discussions happening .
I will ask the team to go deeper and share their version of what works and does n’t work for them during our meetings and visualize any overlap that is found amongst the team members . Are we all experiencing the same thing ? Are there multiple distractions and topics that other members we not aware of ?
I will use our visualizations and inputs to organize a mind map to see correlations and differences from each of the participants . Ultimately organizing iterative approaches to future meetings by quickly tackling those common themes found with the participants .
Insight and Approach
What I have experienced and have struggled with initially is the goal of NOT having an end state in mind . I have had to work on using a beginner ’s mind to approach the issue . I am naturally inclined to want a quick fix for any situation and fall into the trap of the first option is generally the one I choose . It has been interesting thus far to see that some folks enjoyed the current format . When providing honest answers , they say this is a time for them to “ half listen ” and catch up on other busy work they may have . Others expressed frustration for the lack of engagement from their peers .

1 . Challenge .
Because I ’m a lawyer in a big company , from time to time I need to assure , to convince my colleagues that we have huge risks in the contract or business scheme . Of course , my colleagues do n’t want to change commercial conditions and to negotiate big changes with partners very often . For them it ’s much easier to leave everything as is and hope that nothing will happen . The same time I have to hedge the legal risks .
2 . Selection .
I ’ve chosen storytelling , because this tool has emotional connection , it can help understand for my colleagues a cause of my actions and suggestions via story understanding . I work together with creative people for whom it is easier to understand information and arguments in a dialogue , by using associations and explanation through examples . Storytelling gives me a chance to demonstrate some risk via associations in my story .
3 . Application and insight .
I have an advantage because I know many of my colleagues well . Therefore , I have an idea of how these people think , what issues they are concerned about and what associative images will help me to convince them of the presence of risk and the necessity of actions . That ’s why I need to recall a similar situation in which there were similar problems and the risk to which I pay attention , was realized and led to negative consequences for a person , a company or a project . I start the story by describing this situation , adapting it to our company or our project to make it closer and clearer . I outline the essence of the project , describe the risk that we have identified and have not paid attention to , and logically build a sequence of events : risk , refusal of its hedging and negative consequences .
Thus , storytelling helps me to simulate the situation that can occur in our case and make it more reliable and clear through the demonstration of an example of the wrong approach to hedging the risks and consequences of this .
If I tell a story in an emotional manner , with details , explaining the chain of events , experiences of people , comparing the situation with ours one , it allows me to achieve an emotional response from the manager and gives me a chance to influence his behavior and choice in this situation . It was my discovery that emotional perception of an event , as well as the transformation of risk into a sequence of events , experiences and decisions , helps to model people 's behavior and gives them the opportunity to look at things more broadly and without prejudice .
4 . Approach .
in fact , in such situations , when I need to explain why it is important to hedge the risk and do it in a clear and accessible form , I will use storytelling as the most successful way to achieve this goal , which is realized through communication with people that I really like .

2 . Selection .
I ’ve chosen storytelling , because this tool has emotional connection , it can help understand for my colleagues a cause of my actions and suggestions via story understanding . I work together with creative people for whom it is easier to understand information and arguments in a dialogue , by using associations and explanation through examples . Storytelling gives me a chance to demonstrate some risk via associations in my story .
3 . Application and insight .
I have an advantage because I know many of my colleagues well . Therefore , I have an idea of how these people think , what issues they are concerned about and what associative images will help me to convince them of the presence of risk and the necessity of actions . That ’s why I need to recall a similar situation in which there were similar problems and the risk to which I pay attention , was realized and led to negative consequences for a person , a company or a project . I start the story by describing this situation , adapting it to our company or our project to make it closer and clearer . I outline the essence of the project , describe the risk that we have identified and have not paid attention to , and logically build a sequence of events : risk , refusal of its hedging and negative consequences .
Thus , storytelling helps me to simulate the situation that can occur in our case and make it more reliable and clear through the demonstration of an example of the wrong approach to hedging the risks and consequences of this .
If I tell a story in an emotional manner , with details , explaining the chain of events , experiences of people , comparing the situation with ours one , it allows me to achieve an emotional response from the manager and gives me a chance to influence his behavior and choice in this situation . It was my discovery that emotional perception of an event , as well as the transformation of risk into a sequence of events , experiences and decisions , helps to model people 's behavior and gives them the opportunity to look at things more broadly and without prejudice .
4 . Approach .
in fact , in such situations , when I need to explain why it is important to hedge the risk and do it in a clear and accessible form , I will use storytelling as the most successful way to achieve this goal , which is realized through communication with people that I really like .

In my project there are five types of work that we do . There are five members including me , the manager of the team . The challenge was to distribute the work in such a way that at the end of the day all five types of work gets done irrespective of absenteeism . Some work are complex and needs patience to execute those successfully , while others are relatively easy but comes in with a large volume . Hence recognizing skill set was important . Also the project involves execution of work at specific times with very short turnaround times , hence communication and flow of information are equally important .
Selection
I selected the Visualization tool so that team members can understand at a glance their job role during specific time of the day / s for the next three months . Since the project involves a very short turnaround time , the visualization tool was chosen a kind of ready reckoner when faced with any uncertainties .
Application
I found that the main contribution of the Visualization chart was to reduce confusion and uncertainties .
The chart includes
a. Job role of each member of the group during specific time of the day / s for the next
three months
b. Names of replacement team members in case the primary member is on an unplanned
leaves . Planned leaves are taken into account when the visualization chart was prepared . The replacement members are chosen on the basis of skill set that the member possesses vis - à - vis the primary member .
c. Names and contact details of go - to members in case of any problems faced in the
project ( specially applicable in Work from home situation )
Insight
The Visualization chart helped to reduce capacity utilization time by more than 15 % . Previously it used to take up a lot of time to communicate in case of emergencies like a sudden drop in internet connectivity or computer malfunctioning . Not anymore . The time that got saved was utilized to develop skill sets of members who lacked any . Hence over a period of time , the project moved to a point where each of the five members of the team became capable of doing all the five types of work . Then the task of job allocation became easier as skill set ceased to become a necessary criteria to allocate work .
Approach
I would like to introduce a Learning Launch Approach in my project . That will help members to realize
a. The latest updates about the project . b. The quantity of work that other members are doing vis - à - vis his own performance . c. Knowledge sharing , which will improve productivity and reduce execution time
( Example – knowing some Excel shortcuts ) .

Storytelling
Challenge and Selection :
The first tool that I used was storytelling in order to bring language learning alive and create participatory and immersive experience that allows the listeners to enjoy and entertain in a way .
Diagnostic imaging procedures are cutting - edge technology , but at the same time they are an unpleasant experience for patients especially children . I remember when I saw a little girl who was continuously crying on her way to the scanner . I suddenly noticed that this room that contains the scanner looks just like a brick with a hole in it and with kind of dark and those flickering fluorescents and I realized how scary this experience was to all patients . Therefore , I spent a time with those patients and have focused on children and used stories to visualize and understand their concerns . I used this information to develop different strategies to try and solve this issue by trying to find a way that works for them and how to create scanners that patients would love .
Application :
I started the process by telling a story with a company that has interests in new technology and discussed with them the need and importance of these diagnostic scanners in general and what benefits they can provide . Then , I began to explain the urgency to figure out and study how changes can be implemented to these scanners that will make patient fall in love with them . I started by sharing a story about the little girl that was on her knees crying and followed it with the story of an old man who could not enter these scanners and after several week when they finally used anesthesia , they found out that he suffers from brain cancer . These scary incidents should be taken to consideration otherwise we will lose more patients in the near future .
Insight and Approach :
Well , wow , that was an eye - opener . The agency offered tools that ignited my confidence and I learned about human - centered approach to design an innovation . Going through human - centered design process with people in diverse industries and roles from management to human resources to finance . I started to imagine how powerful this tool could be if I brought it back and got cross - functional teams to work together . I observed and gained sympathy for young children at a day care center .
I talked to child life specialists to fully understand what pediatric patients went through and reached out for help from people around me , including a small volunteer group from a local children ’s day care centers and doctors and staff from a nearby hospital . After that , I created the first prototype of what would become the adventure series scanner .

Challenge :
As an insurance salesperson I find that each person is a challenge with different priorities , beliefs and interests . In this case I would like to talk about a situation that I had when selling life insurance . My client contacted me to obtain more information about insurance coverage , but he was unsure about buying it because it meant a large monthly expense for him . The first thing I had to do was identify the reason why my client had been interested in obtaining this insurance from one moment to the next , recognize the priorities he had at that moment and through these present him a solution that could meet his expectations .
Selection :
After talking with my client for a while , I realized that the death of his cousin had put him in this situation . When she died , she left her children without someone to take care of them and without income . Upon learning about this case and how important the safety of the family members was for my client in the event of his death or inability to continue generating income , I decided to opt for the storytelling tool so that through this my client could learn about cases that I have had to deal with in which the family of an insured person does not have to deal with financial problems in addition to the death of their loved one and thus project his case on this possibility .
Application :
In order to generate empathy with my client and make him feel comfortable and understood . I decided to tell him the story of a friend who lost his mother to cancer while he was in college . After this loss he thought he was going to have to abandon his studies and work anywhere to be able to survive and maybe in the future resume the career that he had abandoned . But thanks to the life insurance that his mother had , he was able to finish his degree , obtain a professional degree and get a better paycheck . After I told my client the story , I gave him a moment to think and asked him what he would do in that situation . I was able to convince my client that his situation could be much safer if he obtained life insurance because no one is exempt from illness or accidents .
Insight :
By applying this design thinking tool , I could see how my client had identified with the story I was telling him and through it he projected a possible future for him , allowing the sale of the life insurance to be possible . I was able to generate empathy with the situation my client was experiencing in addition to creating a union between him and the company I work for , making him understand that the two were going to work as a team for the same cause and thanks to this his family would have no reason to go through difficulties in the event of his death .
Approach :
In the future I would like to continue applying the storytelling tool , but listening more to my clients because by having more information about them I can tell a story in which in addition to them feeling identified , they can feel like part of the company I work for and feel that they have a whole group of insurers who are doing everything possible to reduce the risks they can take throughout their lives . This will also allow me to introduce them to other insurances that they can buy in addition to the one they are investigating because with more information from customers a greater variety of products can be offered .

Challenge
I work for UCSF ( Dutch Telecom company ) and the organization is in a transformation to a more data driven organization . I guide this transformation as an advisor and change manager . The challenge ahead of me is our customer service unit . There is a wish to make the teamleaders of the callcenter agents more data driven . I have interviewed 6 teamleaders as well as 3 service managers with whom they work . I now have to discuss with my colleague Madelon , and thereafter with my stakeholder ( René ) , who is commited to a data driven customer service , my proposed plan for educating these teamleaders to enhance their data analytics skills .
Selection
I selected Visualisation as my tool of choice . The reason is that I need to present my observation ( the situation as is ) and communicate the wishes of the teamleaders for their development of data analytics skills and the introduction of a more data driven way of working . At first I started putting my observations and conclusions from the interviews in powerpoint . However , I realized that it was a lot of information and it did not transfer the setting , the feelings and the emotions I experienced during the interviews and observations . As the proposed plan will be about people , the elements mentioned are very important in my perspective . Therefore I wanted to communicate and let my colleague Madelon feel the dimensions I have seen and the impressions I have got . Besides that the message should be clear and simple and it would be nice if I could put her right side of the brain on , to contribute with innovative ideas as well . As learned during the Visualisation lecture , visualization makes it tangible and concrete . As learned in the lecture , Visualisation is applicable throughout the design process , but in this case I used it for the exploration and pattern finding of my project / challenge at hand .
Application
I applied this tool by using drawing . I read through my observations and thought about the three most important messages I wanted to get through . These I drew with a black and green pencil .
Thereafter I started to depict the challenges the teamleaders articulated to me .
I concluded with the ‘ what if ’ scenario the teamleaders and I talked about .
I used these picture in a PowerPoint presentation to start the conversation with Madelon and I told the story about ‘ what is ’ ( my observations and conclusions from the interview ) and the ‘ what if ’ scenario the teamleaders and I discussed .
Insight
Although I am not a comfortable drawer , I found out how easy it is to create images by using google as an inspiration and drawing figures with simple lines .
When I presented my drawings to Madelon I felt a positive energy from scratch . She was surprised to see something different than just text to start exploring ideas from and it made her excited to start the meeting . I recognized that she understood me instantly when I started telling my story and pointing to the images . I think it was because I did not just use words , I used them in combination with the drawings , which created a single interpretation of my story . On the other hand , the images allowed me to make the story short and to the point .
The best thing about the meeting was that she added her ideas and suggestions for the proposal and started thinking visually as well . She wanted to add it as a visualization instead of just words . We got up and used a whiteboard to start drawing .
All in all , my initial drawing I think allowed a broad understanding of the context in a relatively short amount of time . Therefore we could go immediately into more deepening questions and effective discussion and visualize this at the same time .
Approach
Next time I would not put it in a PowerPoint anymore . I would just put all the pictures together on a A3 paper and take pencils with me . In this way my communication partner can draw lines , write and make figures him-/herself . This opens up the meeting to even more creativity .
I could have used it in the designing process earlier on . During the interviews , I could have let the participants draw their answers , feelings and thoughts . I would do this now as I am more comfortable with the tool . However , I think I did it right as I wanted to experiment first in a smaller stage instead of throughout the process .
After this meeting Madelon and I decided to not create a PowerPoint presentation to present our idea to the business stakeholder René , but use only visualization . So I created the A3 image you see below and made copies of it . I will go in the meeting with only this visualization and pencils and I am excited to see what will happen .

As the proposed plan will be about people , the elements mentioned are very important in my perspective . Therefore I wanted to communicate and let my colleague Madelon feel the dimensions I have seen and the impressions I have got . Besides that the message should be clear and simple and it would be nice if I could put her right side of the brain on , to contribute with innovative ideas as well . As learned during the Visualisation lecture , visualization makes it tangible and concrete . As learned in the lecture , Visualisation is applicable throughout the design process , but in this case I used it for the exploration and pattern finding of my project / challenge at hand .
Application
I applied this tool by using drawing . I read through my observations and thought about the three most important messages I wanted to get through . These I drew with a black and green pencil .
Thereafter I started to depict the challenges the teamleaders articulated to me .
I concluded with the ‘ what if ’ scenario the teamleaders and I talked about .
I used these picture in a PowerPoint presentation to start the conversation with Madelon and I told the story about ‘ what is ’ ( my observations and conclusions from the interview ) and the ‘ what if ’ scenario the teamleaders and I discussed .
Insight
Although I am not a comfortable drawer , I found out how easy it is to create images by using google as an inspiration and drawing figures with simple lines .
When I presented my drawings to Madelon I felt a positive energy from scratch . She was surprised to see something different than just text to start exploring ideas from and it made her excited to start the meeting . I recognized that she understood me instantly when I started telling my story and pointing to the images . I think it was because I did not just use words , I used them in combination with the drawings , which created a single interpretation of my story . On the other hand , the images allowed me to make the story short and to the point .
The best thing about the meeting was that she added her ideas and suggestions for the proposal and started thinking visually as well . She wanted to add it as a visualization instead of just words . We got up and used a whiteboard to start drawing .
All in all , my initial drawing I think allowed a broad understanding of the context in a relatively short amount of time . Therefore we could go immediately into more deepening questions and effective discussion and visualize this at the same time .
Approach
Next time I would not put it in a PowerPoint anymore . I would just put all the pictures together on a A3 paper and take pencils with me . In this way my communication partner can draw lines , write and make figures him-/herself . This opens up the meeting to even more creativity .
I could have used it in the designing process earlier on . During the interviews , I could have let the participants draw their answers , feelings and thoughts . I would do this now as I am more comfortable with the tool . However , I think I did it right as I wanted to experiment first in a smaller stage instead of throughout the process .
After this meeting Madelon and I decided to not create a PowerPoint presentation to present our idea to the business stakeholder René , but use only visualization . So I created the A3 image you see below and made copies of it . I will go in the meeting with only this visualization and pencils and I am excited to see what will happen .

Challenge & Selection
Working for a finance company I noticed that sales staff were constantly making loans to customers with poor credit quality . On the one hand this was introducing new business which was good , but on the other hand , drove up bad debt expense and therefore reducing profit . The challenge was to understand the motivation of the sales staff , identify if they were lacking any tools or resources and ultimately improve the quality of customers . The exercise consisted of internal sales staff and one member from each Finance and IT departments .
The selected design thinking tool we decided on was Visualization or visual thinking . The reason for this was that , given the exercise contained participants from varying fields , visualization helps unlock that aspect of our mind and bring everyone together on one level , to think non - verbally rather than using wordy reports full of technical jargon . As the saying goes – a picture tells a thousand words . The exercise was initially given a 6 month duration . This is so that as a solution is developed , it can be gradually rolled out and tested with the outcome reflected in the Sales staff ’s monthly results , allowing the opportunity for refinement if required . Then tested again the following month .
Application & Insight
I started the process by conducting informal 1 on 1 interviews with each of the sales staff and ask the following questions : a ) what motivates you in making the sale ? b ) what would help you in making a sale ? and c ) what understanding do you have as to the impact of your sale onto the wider company profitability ? These were 10 minute maximum interview with each of the 15 sales staff and the answers were kept anonymous .
Following the interviews I ran a 2 - day workshop where the answers were grouped together according to similarity on a larger poster board . From this , three themes emerged – 1 . Motivation is based how staff are measured i.e. value of new loans sold , 2 . Almost all sales staff asked for a tool / spreadsheet that can be used in the field when speaking directly to brokers and 3 . Other than knowing that new loans drives profit , they did n’t know how .
We decided to approach this in reverse order . Firstly , on a white board the Finance representative in attendance drew a flow chart of how new loans impact profitability so that sales staff can visualize the income flow . This was a quick win . The process starts with the new loans and ultimately the interest received for the duration of the loan . However , where the borrower has poor credit ( as in our case ) then the probability is the loan will turn bad and written off , thus an expense to the company . Unfortunately this was not a consideration at the time of sale . Next , we covered the tooling requirement to aid sales staff . On a white board again I drew up a rough skeleton of a dashboard which can be used when sales staff are in person with brokers . This included a small model which allows for input of variables about the customer i.e. income , credit history , interest rate charged , duration of loan . This outputs a small profit statement which shows income generated from this customer but possible bad debts and also a RAG status flag to instantly point out to staff the potential profitability of the deal . The sales staff in the room expanded on the drawing to improve their user experience . The IT representative confirmed a prototype can be developed in 6 weeks which can be used and then refined if required .
The insight gained from conducting this exercise was that by individually interviewing staff we could understand where the deficiencies existed . By visualizing how a bad loan can impact profitability on the white board , the sales staff now know that charging the highest interest does not always make the most financial sense i.e. low interest rate can me charged to a customer who is more credit worthy . Also , by arming the staff with the dashboard , they have the capability of making more informed decisions in real time . Finally , this exercise by accident allowed senior management to identify that they were measuring staff on the wrong metric which is to now paying commissions on the profitability of the staff and not just the sales which in turn will reduce the level of bad debts and hence drive up profitability . This shows that in design thinking looking at a process from end to end and having customer involvement ( internal customers in this case ) allows us to unlock additional solutions to that which was intended .
Approach
Visualization was definitely an effective design thinking tool to use for this exercise as it has the ability of bringing together various disciplines and normalizing for all to understand . By drawing the flow chart , the staff can now have a mental image of the flow - on effect of their sale . Also , by enabling the staff to draw the dashboard as they see fit , we are allowing all in the room the visualize how the output will appear . An alternative approach to visualization may have been mind mapping as these contain two critical elements : 1 ) visualization of course and 2 ) interview / input from the customer .

Challenges and Selection
Storytelling is a powerful tool that I use all the time in my area of specialization and my day to day work . I work with students from different part of my country , background and culture . Some of them are senior citizen while others are young ( teenagers ) .
Most of these students are economically disadvantaged . A large percentage have come to study due to economic times in our country other due to life experience for example they got married at a tender age , got children whom they can not support , they can not get a job because they do n’t have the required skills in the market . Thus they need to acquire hands on skills and empower themselves to get a job .
I spend most of my time talking to them and inspire them being the dean of student in the college makes me have many cases of student including and not limited to displinary , attendance of classes , early pregnancies those having difficulty in paying fees etc . I inspire them so that they learn and upgrade their lifestyle . Some of them are open with me and they share their life experience and some of the stories I use in guiding and counseling others and teach because we all learn from experience .
I share my personal experience how I started from a certificate course , coming from a humble background and now am a lecturer in one of the public university and technical and vocational college . This has made me interact with different people with different status in our country . I use this stories/ information to develop different strategies to try and find a way to encourage them to work hard and be empowered in their area of specialization .
Application
I have a story how to succeed in your academics and grow in your career I tried telling my information technology students how I started with the lowest certificate course ( CIT ) . This is because i never performed in my o level to get a direct entry in the university . I always tell them that they are unique in every aspect and they only need to be focused in their academics .
The culture around our college is that girls do n’t excel in science courses . Most girls have been dropping from college due to teenage pregnancies . I give them examples of other students who have gone through college and university after giving birth and being successful they should not give up in their education . Most take in the advice and finish their courses and that makes enrolment in our university and college increase . Thus earning our college capitation which is money given to the college by the government . Because the less the enrolment the less the funding .
Insight
I tried these strategies in my first year of being a part time lecturer and it worked and most students performed well especially in my subject area and the enrollment improved . Sharing my personal story and being a good listener has really encouraged girls and they see they can make it in life . I enrolled for
the diploma course in Information Technology , before I finished the course I conceived and gave birth to a baby girl . I went back to university and studied the last year and emerged the top in my class . I later enrolled for Bachelor of Science Information Technology in the same university and scored highly . I was later employed as a tutorial fellow this inspired me to undertake my Masters in business administration ( Management information systems option ) .
This inspires my students so much and it has a big impact on them . The students are performing well and incase of any eventuality they reach out to me very fast making me have an easy time as the dean of students .
Approach
This course has made me realize this is a very important tool in design thinking . While I have been doing it I thought it ’s just a normal talk and making this students understand life but now I can understand and prepare for more stories and also read other people experiences over the same . This will help me more . I find storytelling as an asset to me and my institutions .

Challenge(s ):
To involve in the project of Smart City to ALL the citizens , including children and older persons . For children , the initial challenge is how to explain what is a Smart City , to have an understanding , and to be happy with the project .
For a city , it would be important that families can see that the family obtain benefits with a project of " Smart City " , and this is why children have a role seeing why this is positive and funny for them .
In the case of the older population , they would need to identify clear benefits for them , for example by supporting their health , by having better conditions in the city or transports .
Selection :
In these two cases , both for children and older persons , it is not easy to explain questions related to technology , as is the case for services provided by a Smart City .
And this is why “ Visualization ” can be very useful , and if we are considering a “ comic ” , then we are also using “ Storytelling ” .
So , my selection will be a combination of both .
Application :
Visualization when talking of a city is very useful as many different services can be optimized , and both children and older persons would understand better if they see an image .
In a comic like the one I used , there is also a Character introducing the subjects and telling a story .
In this way , you can be ensuring that the “ audience ” is correctly understanding , as in the picture of buses to go to the school , where the presenter character can explain that good traffic coordination would allow getting on time to school in the case of children .
For the case of older persons is the same if they have to go to a hospital or to visit their sons . Storytelling allows visually concatenating a sequence of benefits , simulating an experience like a day in a City .
Insights & Approach
The result confirmed our thoughts about how a comic can be convenient for these types of users , mainly for children .
The approach was completed or complemented with a robot that could answer questions from them .
In the case of older persons , it is also more interesting for them to have such a format . A picture is clearer than a long description .
And , the approach more effective is when the story of the comic is a practical situation , for example , related to health , to transport improvements . And additionally , may be interesting to use new technology as intelligent devices ( Smartwatch ) to control a correct heart performance avoiding going to the hospital .

And this is why “ Visualization ” can be very useful , and if we are considering a “ comic ” , then we are also using “ Storytelling ” .
So , my selection will be a combination of both .
Application :
Visualization when talking of a city is very useful as many different services can be optimized , and both children and older persons would understand better if they see an image .
In a comic like the one I used , there is also a Character introducing the subjects and telling a story .
In this way , you can be ensuring that the “ audience ” is correctly understanding , as in the picture of buses to go to the school , where the presenter character can explain that good traffic coordination would allow getting on time to school in the case of children .
For the case of older persons is the same if they have to go to a hospital or to visit their sons . Storytelling allows visually concatenating a sequence of benefits , simulating an experience like a day in a City .
Insights & Approach
The result confirmed our thoughts about how a comic can be convenient for these types of users , mainly for children .
The approach was completed or complemented with a robot that could answer questions from them .
In the case of older persons , it is also more interesting for them to have such a format . A picture is clearer than a long description .
And , the approach more effective is when the story of the comic is a practical situation , for example , related to health , to transport improvements . And additionally , may be interesting to use new technology as intelligent devices ( Smartwatch ) to control a correct heart performance avoiding going to the hospital .

Challenge and selection :
Visualization is any technique for creating images , diagrams , or animations to communicate a message . Through visualization , we can achieve shared understanding of problem among a group of people . Visualization gives more clarification on problem and can be understood what the other person is trying to express . I have used the technique of using a visualization 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 identify in pain points and opportunities for improvements or solutions .
Application :
I start the process by creating as graphic of the problem domain . To develop the graphic , I will draw from any existing material available to understand the environment . The existing material may be operational or procedural documents , training materials , marketing materials , GAO or other auditing reports . If materials are not available , then I conduct informal interviews with one - three of the stakeholders who serve as my main points of contact on the initiative . For the activity , I will divide the stakeholders into groups of 5 - 6 participants each representing a different organization or area of interest . Each group receives anime character graphic that they can write on directly , or use sticky notes to make comments . I give them two - three questions to answer , such as : What key elements are missing from the graphic ? What would you change about the graphic to make it more accurately reflect your problem space ? What key insights do you have about the relationships between the entities in your problem space ? I give them approximately 20 minutes to discuss the questions and mark up the graphic . Then I have each group report out on their answers to those three questions while pointing to the 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 digitize each group ’s poster as an artifact , create a view that combines the shared and new insights from the group discussion , and then create a revised graphic that incorporates their feedback and proposed changes that they agreed to as a group .
Insight & Approach :
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 .
After conducting this exercise , I have learned that visualization is the important tool in the graphics and design thinking . 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 . With this tool I can have broad concept of visualization and it is important tool in design thinking and for innovation .

Challenge I am a recent graduate from one of the national business school which was established in the year 2007 in the city of Amritsar , India . Amritsar is famous for the 16th century built golden temple and attracts a major chunk of revenue from tourism . However the city is connected with various national and international flights , the institute , being newly established , is not very notorious among locals . As there is a culture among Indian B - schools to heavily invest in cultural & management festivals ( events ) scheduled every year , the footfall of attendees coming from the whole nation was limited to 400 students for the previous years . The challenge is to manage the “ Campaigning ” for the fest to achieve a 1000 + footfall for the current year . Selection As the target was seemingly ambitious , the campaigning team was looking for innovative ideas to achieve the desired footfall . The whole team sat on the table to apply design thinking methodology and use the visualisation tool to draw out the complete campaign together . As the same activities of campaigning were done in the past year , the team had a fair idea of their achievements and shortcoming which must be kept in mind before rolling out the final action plan for the current year . Application Traditionally , the campaigning was done by appointing campus managers online from various other institutes , whose job is to forward the event details to the students of their college . The interested students may visit the hosting college website to explore and register themselves in various events ranging from cultural & management to sports . With the help of design thinking and using the tool of visualisation , the campaigning team explored the “ what is ” part of the designing and came up with the issues of leaving everything to campus managers . The whole event seemed to be at the discrete of the campus manager , who may or may not enthusiastically participate in glorifying the events of the host college . The whole idea is to increase the participation as it would imply a better competition and leaning opportunity . Once the team was done with “ what is ” part , we moved to “ what if ” and explored various options . After doing a considerable amount of design thinking , the team realised the importance of physical ( offline ) presence in other colleges to drive the whole campaign . We divided the teams in “ local ” & “ outstation ” units . Various colleges were identified which were in the vicinity of the city , where participation can be expected from . Using visualisation tool , we draw a complete system where the Campus Manager would report to the Region Manager , who would report to the State Manager who would in turn report to the Campaigning Head . The reporting would ensure that the information is being passed to each and every student of the college by situating ourselves in their study groups , e - mail chains and physical posters .
Insight & Approach Using the design thinking methodology of achieving our 1000 + students footfall mark , we get to know that the problem lies with the communication channel which was unidirectional . Visualisation tool helped us to build the channel which was bi - directional and hence can be used to resolve the queries of the students in real time . The approach was to clarify all the participation related query within 12 hours , source and maintain an information channel that would imprint the details of the event in the memories of a large number of students , in turn kicking a high number of participation and overall campus footfall .

Challenge and Selection
Storytelling is a great tool for conveying a message to people such that it has a broad purpose . It is a way wherein you can deliver your message with clear understanding without compromising the purpose of your idea . I became interested in storytelling because as an electronics engineering student , I am so exposed in electronics system and technical illustrations . When I want to persuade someone to buy my product , it will be hard by just explaining the technical side .
In reality , making a finished product or invention is not enough to persuade people to use that as a solution to the problem . Sometimes it ’s hard to explain that it is the only solution for their problem . Storytelling is a very good technique to solve this problem . I ’m lucky that I was able to learn this in one of the discussions in Design Thinking for Innovation . We must know how to tell a very good story about our generated ideas . By that , we can get our own ideas absorbed to the market . It is hard for me to relay my works to others as an engineering student but now I ’ve able to learn a technique to make everything simple .
Application
In design thinking , storytelling is a submissive learning . I start the process by answering the questions which are : What , Why , and How ? Then I will research all the related discussions to the problem that I want to solve . It is a good start to know everything about your study . The way of a person on how can his or her device work without addressing their different terminologies that other could adopt or understanding process of work and service is very essential because people are composed of different professions or standards in life .
We all have different jargons so not everyone can understand each other unless you will create an analogy which is a technique for a better understanding . In doing my research , the insights that I will gather can lead me to have an establishment on my design criteria . This would help me to make a good story for my product when I am already introducing it to others . There are instances when I am talking about my projects to my friends , they were not that interested because of the technicalities that I am sharing to them . By the storytelling , I will now focus on creating good stories that will help me implement my work to others .
Insight and Approach
I can easily expressed my ideas in a good manner and in a very persuasive way through storytelling . Not everyone can be convinced in the item you were presenting unless you have a technique to literally catch their attention . As what I can observe , Filipinos love stories . When you are telling stories , especially the interesting ones , you can see to their face their interest for it . We must also consider not just the insight of what we researched but also the insights of the consumers .
When we know the needs of the people , they will be interested if we ask them that what we are saying is the solution for their specific problem . We can easily adopt on how people interprets his idea . If it is
something interesting , people will attentively listen to you . We must consider the needs of the consumers for us to hit the most interested solution to the problem that we want to solve . Searching for a specific idea will not be hard anymore because just by looking on the problems at our society , we can think of many . Answering the need of people in the society will be something interesting for them and you can create good stories out of that .

Challenge As an educational leader social entrepreneur , I wanted to organize an international conference of English language teachers in a small growing town in Nepal . My constituency , the English language teachers had a great respect and trust for me as I chaired the regional branch of Nepal English Language Teachers ’ Association . This would not only benefit the local English language teachers , it would also benefit the region due to arrival of international guests . The challenge was to convince the seven different political parties that governed the city at a time of political instability . Selection Story telling is a powerful tool to convey a message to various stakeholders , when you have to accomplish something big . Since my challenge was to bring a different element to the challenge , I had to convey the message that logically as well as emotionally so that the stakeholders would feel the connection and could see the larger purpose . The “ cause ” of uplifting the whole region educationally was of course powerful and would “ ignites people . ” My challenge was to tell the story in a way that my audience would understand . So I first discussed this among my core team and then we invited all stakeholders to tell the big story . We put forward the situation and opportunity at hand . We asked questions , and we gave moments of reflection . Most of them were intrigued by the idea but they has many questions and suspicions . The compelling nature of our story and the enthusiasm in my core team , eventually inspired the community . We were able to officially declare the date from that very meeting . For many of the young people it was a fresh breath of air . We explained why 80 % failure rate in English language is challenging . Then we talked about the opportunity of hundreds of teachers being benefited by the international conference and the long lasting impact in education , the idea created energy and passion that led us to think about strategy because we felt that after some questions and answers the community was in the same page . Application Since the idea was that of advancement of whole society together , I tried to build a story appropriate for different audiences : For local businesses , for local administration , and for local political leaders . The story of a teacher ’s development and the impact of teachers ’ professional development in the society through hundreds of students helped me to connect with the various stakeholders in a relatable way . Not only was I able to mobilize hundreds of English language teachers toward organizing the event , multiple local individuals and organizations stepped up , fundraised , and volunteered to make this event a grand success . It was very effective .
Insight I had a strong sense that the idea would be compelling to people once the story was told to everybody . I used the data and hard facts showing dismal performance of teachers . The challenge was sold . I then explained the opportunity in front of the community and told them how they could help and showed what we could accomplish together . It worked . The greatest insight was that when you are trying to accomplish something big , “ it takes a village . ” I did know this but going through the experience gave me a new meaning of storytelling . Approach If I were to do this again , I would do three things differently . First of all , everybody that contributes needs recognition . I gave multiple responsibilities to many , many volunteers and made sure that they were part of the story . Finally , however , I could have done a better job if I took a time to profusely recognize people for their contributions . Second , I could have delegated more and given multiple people a chance to appear in media and tell the same story to larger public , which would help us to obtain public trust . Finally , I would make sure that volunteers are well fed . Eventually , I wish I had known the idea of “ what is , what if , what wows , and what works ” before the endeavor . A great approach , which will keep inspiring my future endeavors .

For example , the current project where I am currently working as a project coordinator deals with solving the risky sexual behavior and hegemonic masculine norms of young men from the slums by applying an innovative approach called psychodrama . We are now adapting this group psychotherapeutic approach as a health educational model to disseminate knowledge on sexual and reproductive health . Recently , we have received another public health challenge to deal with the burning mental health problem of Multi Drug Resistant ( MDR ) TB ( Tuberculosis ) patient . Selection : To tackle the challenge , I have chosen the storytelling tool to motivate the MDR - TB patients where stories will be collected from the patients who have got the disease , however , still fighting to cope up with the TB induced mental health problems . The Module 2 of the course has helped me to find this innovative idea to collect stories from the patients and make a play or drama out of the story . The interview transcripts will become the words of the actor who will act in front of the TB patients . Narratives will be collected through qualitative interviews from the drug resistant TB patients and it will be played in front of them to resonate their life stories . Application : This verbatim theatre approach to deal with health problems is a very unique and innovative idea that has never been tested in our country context . However , the power storytelling can play by merging with drama or acting has tremendous potential to become an effective health education approach . There will be pilot testing done in the National TB hospital based in Dhaka , Bangladesh where the first show of the drama will be staged in front of the TB patients . Later on , qualitative feedbacks will be taken to know their feedbacks and the effectiveness of this approach . If this novel approach can motivate the TB patients to cope up with their mental stress , it can be scaled up to become a continuous education program for TB patients all over the country . Insights and Approach: The organization who offered us the challenge liked the idea a lot and they have agreed to fund this novel project . If the pilot testing works well , they will provide further funds to scale it up . Moreover , the design thinking course has enabled me to design an innovation with a systematic way starting from the what is and ending with what works approach . The storytelling part has already covered the what is and what if phase of our project and the drama based on the TB patient story will cover the what wows and what works phase which will be a new value addition to deal with public health problems with innovative solutions . Background in Theatre and Public Health research and management has enabled me to think about this creative project where the design thinking course added a new dimension to think critically and out of the box .

1 . Challenge :
Our company is into service industry . Over the past 10 years , we launched many products . It was in 2012 we hired an agency that helped us implement agile methodologies . They introduced us to Jira , groomed a project manager for the Scrum Master role and implemented daily stand up meetings , sprint reviews , and more . However , it was very new for the entire team and there remained some challenges such as the way the management thinks and perceives building products using agile . The organisation has always been frugal , believed in learning new things from time to time , and be really quick at adapting to changing environments . Having said that , since the teams have to deliver things at a great speed , this always results in them picking up a lot of tasks . Also , due to the frugal nature of the organisation and limited resources , they ’re always kind of short of time . The teams also think that the time spent on meetings could be utilised elsewhere such as coding for the product . Due to this , many a times they build features that could be much stronger had they done more brainstorming and followed the design thinking process such as ideation and customer empathy sessions . The management is also unaware of the best practices to follow – and one that I picked up is Mind - Mapping . I also strongly feel that if they gete convinced about the global best practices , it would be easy to buy more time from stakeholders for building great products . I interviewed about 10 people for the product we had recently launched internally to a limited group of 50 people . And as expected , that gave us a lot of insights . We realised that to make real sense of so much of data , mind - mapping would be the next right step to solve problems of building great products .
2 . Selection :
I am also a fan of the IDEO CEO who says , “ If he has to do something analytics , he creates a list , but he has to do something more creative , he creates a mind - map ” . This is why I selected mind - mapping tool because there was so much of information in each interview . I also used the product management user interview framework . Mind - mapping also helped me connect the dots in the information received from multiple users .
3 . Application :
The product manager and a group of other 4 people from the team working on the product got into a room . The info that was in Microsoft excel , collected through the interviews process was projected on screen and we started breaking them down to small features and bugs on sticky notes . Once that was done , we categorized and prioritised them . The first meeting also brought up a lot of questions as it was our first time but that also helped us go through the material online to make sure we fully understand the process . An announcement was made that these meetings would be held more often .
4 . Insight :
There were eye - opening insights during this entire process . We got to know the top 3 reasons why the users would not engage with the product as we ’d anticipate them to , and also about what they currently love about in the product . We found their objections and heard what they did n’t say during the interviews . We then mapped all the pointers and what kind of impact they have . It really helped us write well though stories and helped us in effective prioritization .
5 . Approach :
I think we will need to work on our brainstorming sessions and improve them in future so we can do better mind - mapping with the team . We realize that this will save us a lot of time . And , we will also show the management 4 - 5 successful mind - mapping meetings with their outcome to bring them in confidence . This will generate great result and we will be able to get their buy - in so we can implement agile in the organisation in true sense .

CHALLENGE :
Working for an automotive software supplier , customer complaints from the field are a norm .
However short turnaround times are expected so as to firstly contain the problem ( temporary solution ) and secondly unearth the root cause and provide a permanent solution . During the manufacture of ‘ Car A ’ a fault was reported sporadically in the engine ECU ( Electronic Control Unit ) which reduced the throughput of that particular line in the production plant . The experts from both parties ( OEM and Supplier ) were shooting in the dark to arrive at a quick and dirty solution . Somehow by merely studying the symptoms alone they were able to arrive at containment actions which reduced the occurrence of the problem by 10 % , but it did not solve the problem 100 % ! This provided a perfect platform to apply design thinking as a problem solving tool to resolve this issue .
SELECTION :
The need of the hour was to identify the fundamental problem from the different symptoms that
were observed . Mind mapping would aid in this front so as to recognize patterns and form a base to structure the potential root causes in such a way , as to attack them sequentially or in parallel with clarity of the fundamental problem in mind .
APPLICATION :
A two - fold approach was needed .
1 . Document the list of symptoms observed in the production plant so as to identify the fundamental
problem .
2 . With the fundamental problem in the center , the various potential root causes were mapped as
child nodes arising from this central node . These child nodes were also clustered based on the different entities like hardware , software , calibration , etc .
Step1 : A special technique called ‘ Is / Is - not ’ was used . Simple questions such as the following were asked and the answers were documented in a tabular format .
a ) What is the problem ?
What is not the problem ?
b ) Where did the problem occur ? ( Geographic location )
Where did the problem not occur ?
c ) When did the problem occur ?
When did the problem not occur ?
d ) Who reported the problem ? ( Production plant )
Who did not report the problem ?
e ) How frequently did the problem occur ?
Based on the answers to these questions the fundamental problem was identified . Though this data collection was a time consuming affair , yet this ensured that we stayed in the problem space instead of jumping directly into the solution space . Accrued to that it also ensured that innovative questions could be asked while trying to unearth the root cause of the problem .
Step2 : A mind map was created with the fundamental problem as the central node and the potential root causes from the various areas ( hardware , software , calibration , etc . ) as child nodes branching from the central node . Links were also created between nodes to show the interaction between them . This helped in breaking down a complex problem into smaller logical chunks and later in eliminating them one by one when a particular root cause was understood to not lead to the problem .
INSIGHT :
The biggest realization for the entire team was that with this approach the bigger picture was always
clear and visible , irrespective of the phase of problem solving . Though the time taken to demystify the problem was more , yet the confidence level of the team increased with each and every step . The morale was severely boosted . Most importantly the customer was happy with the progress . This was primarily because the thought process and approach was transparent compared to merely preparing Powerpoint slides explaining the problem and further actions planned .
APPROACH :
After a few months the root cause was identified and the solution was pretty straight forward . It felt
as if the solution took care of itself as the issue was fixed in just a few days once the root cause was identified . When 80 % of the time was invested in the problem space , then the solution phase was a stroll in the park ( the golden 80 - 20 rule ) . The first few weeks wasted in directly trying out different solutions based on umpteen assumptions is one thing that could certainly be avoided next time . In an attempt to quickly resolve the issue , acting on the symptoms would only camouflage the complex fundamental problem . In retrospect any sporadic problem could directly be assumed as a complex one and the principles of design thinking could be applied .
