Challenge & Selection
As a management consultant , I have been using storytelling quite often than I ever expected to . And I also find it to be one of the most effective ways of communicating . I am able to catch the attention of a senior board member and a line manager at the same time while narrating the same story , which makes my job little easier . I work with airlines around the world to help them turn profitable and provide a good service to their customers .
Recently , I started to realize that there were a lot of leakages in collections and service issues at airports . Many passengers purchase additional services at the airport . These services could be excess baggage , lounge access , upgrades , paid seats , etc . When we were working with the senior management we realized that the revenue from these services were much longer than what we had expected . Also , the transactions some time causes delays and affects the experience of other customers .
Application
We realized that we need to understand the problem and find an optimal solution for the same . As there were many stakeholders involved everyone felt that they were doing their job well and should n’t in anyway be blamed for poor service . Thus , I decided to spend time with all the key stakeholders and understand their story so that we could all appreciate and understand the real problem and find an optimal solution .
I met all key stakeholders the following few weeks . From product designers , pricing experts to operations on ground staff and mapped the customer journey to understand the touchpoints and where exactly does the problem lie . It was important to understand their story and communicate it to the other parties in such a way that they understand and are willing to help .
Insight & Approach
I visited a couple of airports and spent days with the check - in staff to understand their story . I realized that there were some real problems and there was no simple solution for the same . Most passengers bought the service last minute as they were not aware that they could purchase them earlier online . Since the product portfolio was wide the agents were not aware how much to charge for the services . The on - ground staff did not have a ready reckoner to refer to make the process quick . Thus , long queues would force the airline staff to not charge for these services or sometimes delay the flights to collect everything . When I told this to the senior management back at the headquarters , I think that is when they could really appreciate the problem which lied in the myriad decisions that were made . The policies were reassessed and the ground staff is undergoing training . This is how storytelling helped in happier employees , higher customer satisfaction and more revenue .
The course has provided me with a systematic framework to approach these problems going forward . The video in Week 2 by Dario Fagan , Global Leadership Development Director , Mars , Inc. was every insightful and provide important tips for me to use this tool more effectively .
I have an engineering and finance background still I have come to appreciate how effective this storytelling tool is .

The objective of the project proposed by the Consumer Business Unit was to define the Omnichannel Customer Experience of a potential customer in our Telecommunication firm .
Nowadays in the current market situation , the potential customer is interested to have a special relation with the brand of a firm , and he want to be free while moving from one Sales Channel to another when he want to get information and buy a product or a service .
This means to share the information acquired by a Customer to all the other Sales Channel , destroying the classical barriers that separate them .
SELECTION
The tool I used was the tool of Visualization . I use this approach often with our internal customer – Sales Process or Mktg collegues – because it allows to clarify the ideas proposed , to achieve a shared understanding of the challenge among the different stakeholders , and especially to identify the impacts on the end customer experience .
APPLICATION
I started the process by designing a high - level Journey , in a simple Power Point presentation , from the point of view of the potential customer who start his experience in a physical channel and buy online . I represented the experience on the other way , and I continued with other more combination of sales channel interesting considering the market situation and the principle expressed by the collegues of Marketing department during the interviews I conducted with them .
After that I have identified the possible impacts on our business processes and the new features to be developed in software systems used by our vendors
At the end I distinguished the impacts in the vertical ones to a single sales channel involved and transversal ones relative to all the sales channel
INSIGHT
What I have learned from using this tool on several occasions with different groups of stakeholders is that the graphic is very useful to identify the impacts on the final customer 's shopping experience that derive from the proposed ideas .
The graphic becomes the focal point for discussion that allows the different groups of stakeholders to share their perspectives .
Moreover it allows to direct business choices and to provide a complete scenario for carrying out economic evaluations of the necessary software development , by the Information Technology department .
APPROACH
Since I have experienced in the field that the use of this tool allows to clarify the scenario , and effectively share knowledge among all stakeholders , I would use the visualization tool to propose new ideas and project to my internal customer

I ’m employee as system Engineer in a French major corporate and in parallel ; I ’m Entrepreneur as application developer with my brother .
Our Entrepreneur business model is to develop mobile application for smartphone . We are inspired by two books « Fail Fast or Win Big » of Bernard Schroeder and “ Art of Innovation ” of Tom Kelley . To summarize our challenge : “ Big win or Fail fast ” : Be lean and prototype quickly to validate or not our idea . I have always plenty of idea of new applications that we could develop but because we have a limited budget , resources and time ; Our challenge is to choose among these ideas which one we must launch or not . The learning launch activity is an experiment conducted quickly and inexpensively and it is all what we need .
Our challenge is for each idea ; we put in place two learning launch steps :
- Step 1 : Is the application answer to a real need from customers ?
- Step2 : Verification : Is the application cover properly this need ( Human Machine Interface , function , technical difficulty … ) ?
The Learning Launch tool helps me to pass these two steps to know if we have to launch a new application development . So let me introduce how I apply the Learning Launch tool .
Application
To pass the step 1 : Is the application answer to a real needs from customer ?
First I try to go walk in the shoes of my potential customers . I imagine a list of scenario on a paper where my futures customers could really need my application . I try to discover for which scenario , my application would work and would not work . I ask myself the question if I would install this application on my mobile and if I would pay to get it . Of course at the beginning of this step , I have made a lot of assumptions and the goal of the learning launch will be to tests these critical assumptions . So I do a list of all my assumption that I will try to validate .
I then select between 10 and 20 different people ( different age / sex / culture ) . I choose them among friends of my friends to avoid a bias due to friendship . I organize a meal or have a drink with each one in face to face to avoid a group that could be influenced by others expressing their opinions at the same time . During the meal , I guide the discussion to discover if in the life ’s interviewee , it exists some situation where my application would help him / her . My objective is to know if the application answers the need or not . I try to know if the critical assumptions I have taken are true . For that I use the list of key assumptions that I have elaborated before . Then , I explain to my interviewee how my application could help him / her in this situation . First I just observe the reaction of the visage . From my prospective it is more important to observe reactions than ask directly the question « do you think it is a good idea » ? It protects myself from confirmation bias due to the fact that people does n’t want to hurt me for example .
When I have validate the step 1 , I go to the step 2 : Is the application cover properly this need on a functional aspect ( Human Machine Interface , function , technical difficulty … ) ?
To answer this question I experiment with a role - play with a group of 4 - 5 people .
At this step I have not yet a first beta version ( prototype ) of the application , so what I do is that I begin to imagine the different screens of the mobile application and function to do a kind of « prototype sketch » . I prepare by drawing on several cardboard of the size of a Smartphone , the different possible screens of my application that I have imagined . And with these cardboards , we “ emulate ” the application during a role play of scenarios that I have elaborated and selected in step 1 . It allows me to observe the behavior of the participants . I can test the remaining assumption . I collect the feedback of participants to adapt / add / remove some functionality or detail in the application and to improve the interface . If some change has to perform , we perform the changes and do the role - play again by iterative cycle . If this step is conclusive , we begin / continue to develop a beta version . When we have a first beta application version available , I again organize a role - play with the real application . It allows me to validate deeply the technical aspect of the application , mostly when I use technology linked to real environment of the Smartphone like geo - tracking with GPS or internet access functions …
Insight & Approach
What I have learn by conducting this Learning launch activities on two different ideas / applications is that sometimes the interviewee people just do n’t answer the question that I had prepare but instead of prefer to give their opinion . They try to assess the chance of success of the application instead of focusing to answer if the application could help them or not . That why now I will try to understand if my application could help them by guiding discussion before explaining them what is the goal of the application . Another situation that I met was that people involved in the role - play was shy and I guessed they modify the way they would use the application in the real life and then it could bias the conclusion . But I consider the Learning Launch tool like an estimator and an estimator is never perfect but it is better than nothing .
All these steps are the first contact with the real world and it helps us to refine the application and to fix some issues prior either losing a lot of money because the application does n’t stick any real needs or saving a lot of money because performing later change in an application is always more expensive than at the beginning of development . Sometimes it could be discouraging when the feedback of the Learning Launch activities concludes that it is not a so good idea ( in fact I realize that the application would be good for me in my special context but not applicable to enough other people ): sometimes I have to struggle with myself abandon an idea . In that case I tried to remember that “ Innovation is a probability game ” and soon I will have another good idea I will test it with “ Learning Launch ” tool because it is definitely a tool that I will continue to use .

I am cofounder for a technology consultation company . We are a team of 10 employees and one
of our focus areas is the web and social media monitoring for brands and organizations . Our customers have specific requirements that have not been earlier tried in the market and all available services does not provide the customer what they actually need . We have been for 7 years working closely with our client and we know how we can tackle this gap . Thus , we have decided to develop a software to support our customers with their day - to - day work . We have already agreed to have it build in agile way and leveraging the design thinking approach to make sure the service delivers the customers the value they aspire to . The challenge we have is that we have limited budget and time to launch the product , yet we are not sure if the product will satisfy the customers ’ needs .
Selection
We have been following the design thinking approach to develop the service , we have written the
mind - maps , the customer journey and some prototypes . It is the time to launch the service in a fast and low - cost burden . Our goal is to test and experiment our hypothesis and get the true results as quickly as possible with the right data quantities and qualities .
Application
We have first identified five key customers to launch the service with . The service was with a low
cost for our customers so they were welling to get in and use the software functionalities . We set a plan for execution to have one engineer on site with the customers to monitor and support their use of the software and to capture the issues that appear and collect the customers feedback on the spot . We were able to identify some of the limitations and issues and we were able to identify one of the main issues that all our customers faced which was with hosting the software on - premises . Thus , we have pivoted from the on - premises software to a cloud - based service that overcome the issues we faced and focus on key functionalities from the first release .
Since we have enough insight to build the cloud - based service , we had to iterate the process of
design thinking and the user journey to address the cloud - based service perspectives . Thus , we had our second launch for the service which is now a cloud - based service . Going with the cloud - based approach has given us the privilege to reach out to more customers as we were able to reach to ten customers . We have the service launched with the main functionalities that provide the customers the highest value . We used monitoring tools to capture the user experience in lifetime and we used analytics tools to study the user behaviors . With the data we have and the feedback we collected ; we are ready to launch the next release with more functionalities for our customers .
Insights
At the beginning we assumed our customers had enough resources to enable the software from
within their organizations , however , we have realized there was big differences in the priorities between

This issue made us realize that it would not be easy to scale the product to other customers . The good thing here is that we did not do much investment upfront also the early adaptors of the services have had actually minimized the impact of the sunk cost of the first release .

Approach
The learning launch is very useful tool , without applying this technique we would have incurred
high cost . The one aspect that we did not cater for was to broaden our thinking to other stakeholders , our earlier focus was the direct customers , but we did not consider the whole eco - system . We will continue using this tool and other tools of designing thinking and at the same time we will ensure we include other potential stakeholders into our scope when considering the next releases .

### Input: Challenge
I am cofounder for a technology consultation company . We are a team of 10 employees and one
of our focus areas is the web and social media monitoring for brands and organizations . Our customers have specific requirements that have not been earlier tried in the market and all available services does not provide the customer what they actually need . We have been for 7 years working closely with our client and we know how we can tackle this gap . Thus , we have decided to develop a software to support our customers with their day - to - day work . We have already agreed to have it build in agile way and leveraging the design thinking approach to make sure the service delivers the customers the value they aspire to . The challenge we have is that we have limited budget and time to launch the product , yet we are not sure if the product will satisfy the customers ’ needs .
Selection
We have been following the design thinking approach to develop the service , we have written the
mind - maps , the customer journey and some prototypes . It is the time to launch the service in a fast and low - cost burden . Our goal is to test and experiment our hypothesis and get the true results as quickly as possible with the right data quantities and qualities .
Application
We have first identified five key customers to launch the service with . The service was with a low
cost for our customers so they were welling to get in and use the software functionalities . We set a plan for execution to have one engineer on site with the customers to monitor and support their use of the software and to capture the issues that appear and collect the customers feedback on the spot . We were able to identify some of the limitations and issues and we were able to identify one of the main issues that all our customers faced which was with hosting the software on - premises . Thus , we have pivoted from the on - premises software to a cloud - based service that overcome the issues we faced and focus on key functionalities from the first release .
Since we have enough insight to build the cloud - based service , we had to iterate the process of
design thinking and the user journey to address the cloud - based service perspectives . Thus , we had our second launch for the service which is now a cloud - based service . Going with the cloud - based approach has given us the privilege to reach out to more customers as we were able to reach to ten customers . We have the service launched with the main functionalities that provide the customers the highest value . We used monitoring tools to capture the user experience in lifetime and we used analytics tools to study the user behaviors . With the data we have and the feedback we collected ; we are ready to launch the next release with more functionalities for our customers .
Insights
At the beginning we assumed our customers had enough resources to enable the software from
within their organizations , however , we have realized there was big differences in the priorities between
the IT departments and business department which resulted in delayed times to deploy the solution on- premises . This issue made us realize that it would not be easy to scale the product to other customers . The good thing here is that we did not do much investment upfront also the early adaptors of the services have had actually minimized the impact of the sunk cost of the first release . Also , the learning from the first released were captured to address them in the second release . The second release is more dynamic and have provided us by even more insight having the service on the cloud .
Approach
The learning launch is very useful tool , without applying this technique we would have incurred
high cost . The one aspect that we did not cater for was to broaden our thinking to other stakeholders , our earlier focus was the direct customers , but we did not consider the whole eco - system . We will continue using this tool and other tools of designing thinking and at the same time we will ensure we include other potential stakeholders into our scope when considering the next releases .

Challenge : I have two young sisters and I 'm trying my best to encourage them to learn English cause I know how important it will be for them . But it gets tricky once I note they are not really into it , they are kids , they wanna play around and have fun . I tried to put them in private classes , bought books for beginners , but nothing worked out . Even my endless explanations on how I should have learned it with more compromise and how it affects me today ( noticing I am self - taught with a lot yet to learn )
Selection and Application : Using my ongoing skills in design thinking , I choose the mind mapping to help me to call their attention out . Even this is not a corporating example and does not gather many people , I sit with them and tried to find out what they like about the language , so I gave them two notebooks and asked them to write everything they like and associate most to it . In the end , I had bunches of drawings of famous actors , singers even animals .
Insight : This brought me an idea . I could use this interest in music to light up their willingness to learn . So I did , asked them to chose a few songs they like and taught them lyrics meaning and how to sing it while I went along with the guitar .
Finally , it worked so well for the girls , they even started to record videos about the singing e they really have a good voice . But what pleases me is I could get a spark of the importance of a second language on them and I ca n't tell if I would have this idea without the course .
Approach : What I take from it is that we have to achieve our " customers " needs at the way that fits them better , so it 's all about research and adaptness .
I know you are probably expecting a model little more capitalist about increasing revenue or fulfilling a humanitarian mission but I 'm not working and also tried to keep it real

The challenges faced while opening a restaurant is to find an appropriate place that
has minimal rent and also is situated in a crowded place . The primary challenge is to
frame a menu that is compatible to all sectors of people find the appropriate rate for
each item decided the menu . The menu needs to be decided with the help of
customer reviews and feedbacks and it is also based on the location of the
restaurant .
Selection
The learning launch tool can be used to get valuable feedbacks from the customers
in order to frame the menu of the restaurant along with the costing .
Application
For the first learning launch , we can frame an initial menu which decides the cuisine
of the restaurant and the famous dishes in that cuisine and the cost of the dishes
based on the cost for raw materials and making cost which includes electricity ,
manpower , cost and other expenses . We can also provide a scope for the customers
to include what new items can be included in the menu .
Insight
The effect of the launch can be seen from how customers react to the cost and the
taste and also what are the frequently ordered items . Which can be used to
improvise the menu , Also make the customers satisfied by improvising the cost until
it affects the profit margin .
Approach
We can also use the same idea for a single item in the menu while introducing at
further points in time . Also we can use visualisation ( attractive images of the best
sellers ) on the menu and also use story telling tool to describe he origin and the
authenticity of the dish . It can also contain the ingredients used in the dish , so that
the customer knows the value for money and has a fair idea of what he is eating .

Design Thinking for Innovation - Assignment
Challenge :
I will use the storytelling tool because it is easy to get the listener engaged especially when the story resonates with him or her .
The organization I used to work for before now was not doing well in the marketplace as there was high customer attrition , revenue was going down and staff morale was very low . I observed that the one of the major customers ’ touch point ( The Mobile Application ) was no longer meeting the needs of the customers . Consequently , customers have started looking for alternatives .
The mobile banking application was epileptic as it was running on an obsolete infrastructure and code . Once the number of logged on users reaches a certain threshold , the mobile application becomes unresponsive . When customers consummate transactions , it is extremely slow and most times the transactions are unsuccessful . For example , customers are unable to pay their utility bills on the mobile application because of the epileptic nature of the mobile application . This led to huge customer dissatisfaction , huge customer attrition and fall in transaction volume . All these contributed to downward slide in revenue
I needed to look for ways to improve the bank ’s bottom line and boost staff morale . Since we observed issues with the mobile application , we quickly thought to re - create the mobile application with new features , new codes and new look and feel . We went to the market and shop for some good software engineers , Business analyst and project managers .
We looked at the existing application and started to think of what to change that will appeal to customers . We identified the issues as
1 . Instability 2 . Unreliability 3 . Does not meet the market needs
Once we have been able to identify the problems , we decided that in solving the problem we need to have a unique value proposition that will make the mobile application stand out from others .
The team was put together and given the mandate to build a new mobile application with a unique value proposition within a specific timeline . The team worked night and day and quickly developed a new mobile application with the required value proposition . It came with a new feature that no Mobile application has . This feature allowed customers to open their bank account on the go without visiting the bank branch . This was new in the industry and no bank has deployed such . This value proposition worked for the bank and quickly doubled its customer base and quadruple its transaction volume .
Selection :
The tool I selected for my challenge is storytelling . I chose storytelling because if you tell a story that resonates with the listener , the listener will easily connect with the story . So in getting my team to realize the current state is not helpful to us as an organization and a going concern , I needed to tell a story that
my team can easily relate with to drive home the point and get them thinking how to proffer solution to the challenge at hand
Storytelling helps to keep the audience / team engaged . Once the team is engaged , it is easier to get the team to do what you want them to . It makes it easier for them to understand your position and help in providing solution to the issue at hand
Application :
I applied the storytelling tool in my project . I used it to show the current state of our business . I also used it to show the next level of our business if we only apply ourselves to think outside the box . The bank was losing its customers , revenue was dwindling , and staff morale was at its lowest . These were obvious in their eyes and we need to do something quickly to save the bank
Insight :
By applying the storytelling tool , the team was able to quickly understand what is at stake . The team followed the story and could relate with the story and this make it possible for them to build a solution with a unique value proposition which helped to improve the revenue of the bank , increased its customer base and improved staff morale .
Approach :
I have learned that storytelling is a very good tool to engage your audience . However , if I am to use the same tool next time , I will ensure that that I get the audience to participate . By this I mean , I will get someone among the listeners to also tell a story after we have analyzed the challenge . This will drive home the point better and further get the listeners engaged because they will see that they are part of the solution providers .

Challenge & Selection I am Agile Coach in a Telecommunication Enterprise . For many years my company has been successful , and we are the principal company in my country . This situation has been good but bad too , I said bad because it has created a mindset that all good things that we did in the past are good in the present , and many practices of project manage that we had worked for 15 years , we continued to use that old mindset until 2015 . The high executives of my company have good ideas but the economic situation in our country has generated a high unemployed and this has affected our clients . We needed to explore different way to innovate and since 2015 we began to work in a concept of collaboration , alignment , team work and motivation to improve the outcome of the company . In that moment , we thought in used Mind Mapping , to identify pattern of problem or necessity where the team can propose new solution with alignment and collaboration . It intended to give a major compromise of managers that before they did not work with high executive . The managers are keys to take good decisions , and they were motived and aligned . In that time , the manager receive direction of executive and did not worked with high collaboration dynamic . We planned a tournament where executives and managers participated for 1 month , and they used a Mind Mapping to agree about the real problem and necessity of our clients and later identify pattern of our clients . Only high executives and managers worked in this tournament , not all the company . Application When each department prepares the Mind Mapping , they formed one team and made a proposal . All dynamics had a facilitator . One by one member of team put postits without restrictions for 15 minutes over a backboard , late the facilitator read each postit to clear out . In the next section the team join again to identify the category of each insight shared their opinion in short time , late they prioritize the insight to categorize and only took the most important category . To the final , the team create a Mind Mapping format how we learned in this course with each relationship of this category or pattern . The final of tournament chose relevant proposals with their Mind Mapping and other tools that was necessary to use how Business Model Canvas and value proposal .
This happen in different teams . The role of the facilitator was important to create a good practice of Mind Mapping during that time . Insight & Approach My mayor learning of these activities is that the collaborative work in the quest of real problem and necessity is powerful . When the people identify it and co - create a product , it makes an alienation of the team members and this creates a relationship to a long time during the project . It permits that the enterprise begins to work in a new way step by step , and not in many ways where the people are not alienated . Another learning in this course is that I have other tools before of this Mind Mapping that it will help us to explore the real necessity or problems of our clients in deep to find a better pattern with our new collaboration teams , and we can use other tools to experiment the solution , too . I hope to use in the next tournament . In my point of view , this course organized better my ideas of how I can create values to my company in all phase to create a product or service .

The challenge is the lack of engagement from Citizens to use public infrastructure ( parks , museums ,
local stores ) and discontent of using public services ( Social security , Public Hospitals , E - Gov in general ) . The problem relies on the poor customer experience in the public sector and finding ways to reward the " best " citizens .
2 . Selection : In your own words , briefly describe the tool you selected ( e.g. , what it is and why
you selected it for your challenge -- including any appropriate video lecture references ) .
The tool I 've used was the Mind Map . For me , these tool is the one that fits the most for the
challenge I 've in hand , because I need to see with a perspective of a citizen of a Society . It makes sense to analyse information from all of them .
3 . Application : Describe how you applied the tool you selected to your challenge ( e.g. , what you
did and how the tool was applied effectively or ineffectively ) .
The first step was to ideate through a mind map with a more creative approach , understanding what
are the concepts are most relevant to this application and who are the main stakeholders . After that , I 've collected public datasets regarding public services utilization and CSAT scores for those services in order to get a better insight in which areas could be more beneficial to tackle .
4 . Insight : Describe the insight you gained from applying the tool you selected to your challenge
( e.g. , how an insight affected your thinking about the challenge and about design thinking more broadly ) .
By applying this tool I could go to areas I was n't even thinking , such as including social scores
( gamification concepts ) per citizen using various types of information ( e.g. Social Networks , Geo- location , Bank Account Statements , Tax and Healthcare data ) . Using this type of data , the Citizen would unlock features that would allow them to reduce taxes depending on the scores ( if you pay taxes , utilities landlord on time , if you go to public events , art and cultural exhibitions etc … ) , get free tickets for shows , discounts on local shops etc ..
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 would definitely research more on the vision and roadmap of the most important stakeholder - the
Government . Because I had a lack of visibility on what they were doing to enhance their IT - Business Integration , and because it 's key to get their buy - in , it should have been the second priority , after the customer .
Additionally , the napkin pitch is usually something we do unofficial , but sometimes we forgot to
apply the complete framework and to keep them in an organized way to make sure we are covering a lot of topics , with different perspectives in time .

The department included about 100 people , working in three different locations across two continents . Some of the infrastructure in use was more than 30 years old , or just based on very old systems that were too complex to replace . Next to that the company also had state of the art IT systems . This lead to a huge amount of documentation on various different platforms , old and new ones , and chaotic processes where no one knew where to find the relevant information . The challenge for me was to find a way of organizing all this information in a way that people could easily find it , without the need to check in various different platforms and tools . On top of that , this had to be a low cost solution , as this needed to happen next to our daily job and within only a few weeks . Selection The tool I selected was Learning Launch . The idea of Learning Launch is to test your idea on the field , and learn what works and what not directly from the customer or end user ( see also the video of Ed Hesse in lesson 4 ) . In our case we did n’t want to spend too much time discussing the best solution . We needed to reorganize the resources people used on a daily basis – the structure had to reflect the way they think , not the way I think . We thus decided to let the people try out our idea , to gather their feedback and then improve our solution based on how well it helped them find the information they were looking for . Application Due to the time and resource constraints it was not possible to migrate everything to a new tool so everything would be in one place . What we did instead was to create an entry portal which could be used to navigate to the various resources . People would no longer need to look in various places for information , but could just navigate to all the resources from one single point of entry . The challenge was to set up a structure for the navigation that would work for the IT people and match their way of thinking . After discussing with some people on the team , we pretty quickly set up the entry portal with an initial structure . We let the people use it for several weeks and gathered usage data during this time . We also interviewed people and had various informal chats during coffee breaks to understand how they felt about the structure . Based on these feedbacks we made some changes to the navigation , then again let people use it and gathered feedbacks on the new structure . This time the feedback was great and we decided to keep this structure . Insight The big challenge here was that we had to think of a structure for information that was intended to people with a very different way of thinking than mine . We had to create a product designed specifically for them , and only they could know how information is interconnected in their mind . However , putting these interconnections to paper is very hard . Explaining why a certain way of organizing the information does not work was much easier . Additionally , the acceptance was very high , as the team felt that we were doing this for them , not for their boss . Approach We applied Learning Launch only after the solution was already clear . The tool was used to optimize the solution we had already agreed on , instead of trying out an idea and see if it works . Due to the time and resources available it was not an option to discard the idea and pursue a different one if we would have found out that it did not work . This is somehow contrary to the idea of Design Thinking . In future situations , I would like to really use Learning Launch to test an idea and have the option to test another one if the first idea fails .

I work in a worldwide corporation in Human Resources department . In our country affiliate every month we hire 30 - 60 people . New hires join various functions on different levels of our organization . Our business language is English however we speak 20 + national languages and operate as pretty diversified company .
Challenge
1 . New Hire ’s Perspective
How to make the experience of a New Hire seamless and pleasant starting from the moment of accepting the job offer by the candidate until the moment of his / her first days at work ?
How to design initial on - boarding program to make it possibly engaging , inspirational informative and easy to comprehend ? How to create the New Hire ’s experience that could be ultimately summarized as the following perception :
“ Wow ! This is great and well organized company . I have made the right choice by joining it ! ”
2 . Hiring Manager Perspective
How to make Hiring Manager experience seamless and pleasant so that all that is required for New Hire to become operational as of Day 1 would be ready before that date ? ( e.g. work place , desk , IT equipment , respective information systems access rights , etc . ) .
How to involve Hiring Manager in the initial on - boarding program so that he / she recognizes benefits of this involvement for him / herself and his / her team ?
Selection ( all course modules , the whole cycle of : What is ? What if ? What wows ? What works ? )
We decided to select full - fledged Design Thinking methodology to map the experience of both New Hire and Hiring Manager in order to learn about their current pain points , to define core problems and to decide which of them and how will be addressed by company in a new structured way .
Application
We have established cross - functional project team consisting of :
1 . just hired employees ,
2 . hiring managers from all functions
as well as HR and IT functions representatives .
We have also identified a groups of other people who were and will be interviewed by project team at different stages of our initiative . I took on the role of this project lead . So far , we have run 5 day design thinking workshop that enabled us to :
1 . Clearly define problems that we want to address 2 . Come up with the first prototypes of solutions for both New Hires and Hiring Managers 3 . Initially validate our prototypes with both New Hires and Hiring Managers
Currently we are getting ready for another Design Thinking sprint ( workshop ) to brainstorm and validate what ( in our corporate reality ) will be feasible as the ultimate solution that we could propose to Hiring Managers , especially when it comes to developing a software that would simplify the process of requesting for all necessary artefacts that are mandatory to make New Hire operational as of Day 1 .
Insights
During 5 day workshop we have realized how effective and very collaborative Design Thinking method is . Every participant could contribute and everyone was respected as equal contributor , regardless of his / her role or position in the company . Diversity of the team ( achieved by involving representatives of various functions as well as by inviting people from different levels of the organization ) enabled us to identify pain points we could not think of beforehand . Collaborative form of the workshop also naturally instilled engagement of its participants and created very positive energy and boost . Workshop participants also gained individually as they all stated that they have learned a lot for themselves .
Application
As a project leader I have realized how important is the role of Design Thinking workshop facilitator ( note : the role was not held by me ) . Listening skills as well as ability to be transparent for workshop participants ( which means mostly helping the team to achieve however without
imposing on team members facilitator ’s own views ) are indeed crucial . Hence , for the next workshop we will invest more time to prepare facilitators to their roles before we go for the workshop .
Also many workshop participants met each other on the workshop for the first time . We did not apply any “ ice - breakers ” so that team members could get to know each other first . Next time , before going for workshop I would first organize a small informal team building , e.g. in a form of going together for lunch or dinner .

Challenge I am a student of Engineering College and making a Startup of Juice plant . My challenge is to start my business within a given time period of five months . I also have a challenge of improving my quality as well as making a compatible budget for marketing , installation , Production , raw material . I have a team of 3 people working on marketing insulation and production as well as a raw material purchase and inventory management so I have to make good survey of a market and what type of juices people like to drink as well as do like sugar in the juices or like natural juices or cold pressed juices , etc . We will be focusing on getting to know more and more number of people into our survey for example going to gymnasiums , Yoga classes , cycling clubs , corporate offices , etc . Project also include digital marketing , mouth to mouth marketing as well as offline marketing . We have a big challenge of completing this work within five months time period and a great quality work with less number of people to work . Selection Our team has made many design thinking and innovative ideas for making a product launch . As well as they have also Collaborated with various organisations for making launch of a product in a small ammount at first For testing our product with various people with Different likes dislikes and ideology . Application For first learning launch we use visualisation as our main Structural formula for working and as well as for making hierarchy of team . We visualised our product as a customer and thought of various new things we can do for gaining confidence of people in our juices . Now for testing our juice we directly contacted various people who were health enthusiasts at public gardens . We asked them to taste our juices and also asked them to fill a short feedback form for our convenience about their likes dislikes and about what they wish from a good juice plant . We gave tasks to various people assigned to do this work and made a survey of people choices and what would be better for people and our organizations benefit . Manipulating survey was a difficult task to do so we arranged a analyst for analysing our survey so we can get a perfect result form work we did on our survey . We also started making a plant area and costing plan and got an idea of collaborating with farmers on their field instead of wasting money in plant installation lands . Due to this farmers also got a chance to reduce their effort and also got a good share .
Insight By using various tools our team got a detailed idea of how plant can be raised without engaging many people and having tasks done in short time period . Investors can be a good idea but just comes with a financial benefit and does not give a good effort in everyday tasks . So our team used farmers as investors so they also can get a share as well as they can also work on with us . Approach Our team has made many innovative thinking ideas and also worked upon them now we just need to learn new ideas and also study previous data gained and work upon new things with old experiences , We are also approaching to start a subscription for various clients with a dietry help to them .

Challenge and Selection
The tool which I used is Mind mapping . It is very important tool for design thinker . It is necessary for the
entrepreneur and all innovators it will help them to understand the current situation and how they can make
that product . I am an engineering student so I believe that this tool is very important for me to solve the
problem and think new ideas .
In the mind mapping the things must be considered are ‘ what ’ ‘ why ’ and ’ how ’ with these things we can
easily think a new idea and think that how to implement it .
What - The first thing is to do is we need to know the current status of technology and according that
situation and need of that product we can make that product .
Why – We can also think about this what is different in our product from others and what is the working of
the product and how can it will help the people and It should be in demand .
How – After deciding all the elements it is also very important to know how should we do that work or
make that project all the procedure should be clear in the mind . is very important to know the feature scope
and need of customer or investor of a product .
Application
I applied this tool for solving problem of the wheelchair person . The idea is when the wheel chair
person is alone at home and he is on the bed and he had nobody who can help him reach the wheel
chair and to go out for market or move in the house . The aim of this project is to use wheelchair
automatically for moving forward , backward , Left & Right . A wheelchair is an electric wheelchair
fitted with acceleration sensors , obstacle sensor and computer to help less able drivers achieve
some independent mobility . By just tilting acceleration sensor wheelchair can be moved in four
directions . The obstacle sensor can help the rider control the wheelchair by taking over some of
the responsibility for steering and avoiding objects until he or she is able to handle the job . The
amount of work that the rider chooses to do and how much control is taken by the chair is decided
by the rider and his or her care . So basically , it was a wheelchair which will be controlled by the
voice or mobile phone . We can call the wheelchair by using our voice or by using our smart phone
this chair will adjust itself to pick the person from the bed .
The application of this chair Hospitals , Health care centers , Old age home , Physically handicapped
individuals , Sports .
Insight and Approach
I had leaned so many things with this project in this project faced so many problems regarding
hardware and software but in the end , I think about all the problems solutions all is this done by
the mind mapping I believe if this project will be implemented it will be solved problem of so
many people . It Increased mobility , for disabled people who can not use their arms to power a
manual wheelchair , or for people who do not have the upper body strength to self - propel a manual
wheelchair , power wheelchairs offer the ability to control by the mobile with the use of a joystick
and it will also be controlled by the voice .

### Input: Mind Mapping
Challenge and Selection
The tool which I used is Mind mapping . It is very important tool for design thinker . It is necessary for the
entrepreneur and all innovators it will help them to understand the current situation and how they can make
that product . I am an engineering student so I believe that this tool is very important for me to solve the
problem and think new ideas .
In the mind mapping the things must be considered are ‘ what ’ ‘ why ’ and ’ how ’ with these things we can
easily think a new idea and think that how to implement it .
What - The first thing is to do is we need to know the current status of technology and according that
situation and need of that product we can make that product .
Why – We can also think about this what is different in our product from others and what is the working of
the product and how can it will help the people and It should be in demand .
How – After deciding all the elements it is also very important to know how should we do that work or
make that project all the procedure should be clear in the mind . is very important to know the feature scope
and need of customer or investor of a product .

Challenge : COVID-19 struck in February 2020 and there where a lock down and requirements for social distancing at our company , just as in most other places . As time passed , we started to think about how the returning to the office might be – would it be safe , how many people could be at one location , how do we ensure that we could return to office in a safe way and maintain social distance . My team , a group of eight people , was involved in the task to find a way to do this . Could we create something that will help us plan the return in a safe way ? Selection : The group I work in is an innovation lab which do experiments with new technologies yet used within our company . We are familiar with and using all the four tools or methods mentioned in the assignment - Visualization , Storytelling , Mind mapping and Learning Launch ( we use the term pilot at our company ) . For this challenge we used mostly Visualization and Learning Launch1 . We use Visualization as one way to create greater understanding of the subject area and drill down into details , but in this reflection I will only describe the way we used Learning Launch . The development of the experiment was limited to my group ’s resources , so we needed a way to continuously validate , further develop or freeze the experiment . Learning Launch was a way for us to be able to use scarce resources effectively . We needed users , which had limited time , to test our prototype to enable us to quickly gain new knowledge and iterate the idea to see if it worked . Application : The approach we came up with after an initial ideation was to create a custom iPhone app . As we work with fast experiments , we needed to test what functionality works for the users and what does n’t . We also needed to evaluate the technology solution . We created a prototype within two weeks together with our stakeholder ’s - workplace related services and HR . We started a number of short continuous learning launches . The first learning launch was based on an app where the users should check in manually and the app visualised presence in the building . The prototype was more of a walking skeleton with few features and we deployed the app to selected people in our vicinity . After looking at the result and usage we soon realized that manual check - in was not the way to go – it was not a user - friendly solution , the users forgot or did n’t check in and out - but the idea with an app was still possible to further explore , so we needed automation . As my group had existed for a couple of years , and had done quite a few technical experiments , we looked back and one of the experiments related to near field sensors . That experiment had been frozen , but we decided to return to it and try the technology for this challenge . In the next learning launch we had implemented sensors which the app could register to a database though an API .
1 Learning Launch Tool ( https://www.coursera.org/learn/uva-darden-design-thinking-innovation/lecture/F04r6/learning-launch-tool )
We had selected a few users on different office floors in the building . The users would automatically be checked in while passing a sensor . We tried different kinds of sensors and after feedback and looking at the results we found a way to designing a technical solution with IoT beacons . The test became more effective because the users did not have to spend time testing , just carry around their phone . We also learned that we had to put additional check - out sensors in certain common places that people used to leave the office space to keep correct counting . During the third learning and final learning launch we gained feedback from users that a planning tool also was needed . So , we created the possibility to pre - schedule planned presence in the office building for up to two weeks , enabling users to see planned presence and decide if it was appropriate to go to an office space a specific time . The final app was implemented on all our colleagues work phones and is in use since late 2020 . Insight : Learning launches - pilots2 as we call them , are very useful to try different experiments on real users and other stakeholders . In the course I gained a more comprehensive view of Learning Launches , at the time I had n’t attended this course but appreciated the method as we used it . Now I ’m realizing what potential strength this tool has , especially in combination with the other tools mentioned in the course . Parts that we did n’t use - such as metrics during the learning launches would be really useful . To ask questions like “ Under what circumstances would this be a bad idea ” , “ Will the customer buy this ? ” etc . could be really valuable . I think we had some of the parts as mentioned in the course , we learned and iterated to create a solution that could meet the goal , we did it through small , fast experiments and a fail - fast approach and evaluated if we should continue or drop the experiment . Approach : Looking back , I realize we already used lots of tools and methods within design thinking but in a more ad - hoc manner rather than as a flow . I think that the way design thinking works is a well thought context of things , that by themselves are useful , but when used together makes greater impact . I would definitely use term Learning Launch going forward instead of pilot , but with the knowledge gained now I will do them more structured and well thought out – not in an ad - hoc manner . This goes for the other tools within design thinking as well . I have used visualization , describing the challenge , created customer journeys etc . I have used storytelling to sell ideas or explaining - but I have not made a challenge into a cause , that is new to me and I find it extremely powerful and useful to drive change and gain insights . I will definitely use design thinking and add the knowledge in this course to the tools going forward .

Challenge :
A mind map is a diagram used to visually outline information . A mind map is often created around a single word or text , placed in the centre , to which associated ideas , words and concepts are added . Major categories radiate from a central node , and lesser categories are sub - branches of larger branches . Categories can represent words , ideas , tasks , or other items related to a central key word or idea .
There are variety of mind mapping techniques used . Basically are Pedagogical content knowledge , Comprehension , involvement , etc .
Selection :
Mind maps can be drawn by hand , either as " rough notes " during a lecture or meeting or as higher quality pictures when more time is available . An example of a rough mind map is illustrated .
Application :
Above is the basic mind mapping of a college
Mind mapping helps you tie new knowledge in with knowledge you already have . This makes the technique helpful when you 're trying to understand complicated subjects and when you need to memorize information for an exam .
Insight :
At the beginning of each class you take in college , your professor will hand you a multi - page syllabus that contains many important pieces of information like :
• assignments you ’ll be expected to complete
• the grading system the professor will use
• information about essays and exams
• the topics you ’ll cover in the course
• links to online resources or reading materials

As an individual and professional my aim was to stay at the top of my game but the environment was throwing a lot of challenges at me not just work wise but also to maintain my stability as a person . I have always been a very happy go lucky person and usually throw caution to wind when it comes to my health . However after getting quarantined twice as my teammates were tested positive for Covid-19 … I realised the importance of maintaining my health and fixing my laxity to stay at top of my game . So , this innovation is not some big scale one but a very personal one , where I concentrate on my health . So , my challenge was to get fit and stay healthy . Selection : The tool I used was Mind Mapping I have tried to fix my health in the past as well and have always fallen off the bandwagon very soon or given up … it could be enrolling for a gym and hardly going there , going on a diet and then indulging in too many cheat days or just going into my shell and saying ‘ I do n’t care ’ . So , my data pool honestly was my experiences and reasons why I have n’t been able to achieve my health goals . I realised when I heard the David Kelly quote “ When I 'm trying to do something creative , I make a mind - map . ” So , I chose this format for innovating and coming up with my own plan to fix the most important thing there is … MY HEALTH
Application : The diagram is actually my WHAT IS
WHAT
IS
No time to plan diet
Going out
and
forgetting
about regime
Lack
motivation
No workout plan / routine
As per design thinking when we map thoughts to understand our customers / colleagues to develop a common plan however here I was my own customer to whom I had to sell the idea of fitness and convince them that why this is the most important thing now and going forward . Also , one major thing was to bring upon the understanding that this aligns with every other aspect of my existence … work , personal life , success and growth . My fitness was not a standalone aspect .
Insight :
By mapping what was in my head I was able to gather insight to what was needed to overcome the issues I was dealing with . When I looked at the pointers I had listen out as part of my mind mapping session , I pondered on it and kept going back to the knowledge I had gained from my past experiences . I had failed so many times in this pursuit that it made for a huge data pool of things what I did n’t want to do . I have a pin board where I put up sticky notes about the issues and then on the other side what I will do to fix it….also put up additional notes in kitchen where I get to see them every time I am there to cook or even go to fetch water and that invokes a thought in my head . I drew these simple steps :
➢ I wanted to take small steps ➢ Keep small goals ➢ Revisit my plan everyday ➢ Reward myself ➢ Balance my diet ( make notes on the kitchen wall … what I will not eat ) ➢ Got application in my phone which tracks my activity , calories and weight
( quantification helps )
➢ Started doing affirmations to motivate myself ( that was a key challenge )
My health
and
fitness
Makes me a better worker as I do n't have to take a sick day if I
dedictae time and effort to it
Keeps me mentally happy and I can spread that to the people around
me which leads to sound
relationaships
Satisfaction in this sphere helps me
grow and makes me a succesful
being ... mind , body and soul . Also leads
to my growth
➢ Enrolled for online yoga classes ( as stepping out was a challenge ) ➢ Engaged my mind in 1 activity every day , apart from work to feel more at peace ➢ Started reading and listening to podcasts about people ’s fitness journeys and their
challenges
The tool also helped in identifying areas where I needed to involve other people to help me in this process … I managed to speak to a life coach who after seeing my thoughts managed to guide me as well . Mind mapping gave clarity to something which was always within me and only I could have fixed it .
Approach :
My journey has just started and although it has begun well , there is a long way to go . I am a better and healthier person as compared to when I started . For someone who is an over thinker who has multiple tabs open in there head , there is no better technique than mind mapping . I will choose this again because mind mapping as per me is the vital and key factor in the process of design thinking . For me mind mapping means the following :
➢ Key to determine ‘ what is ’ ➢ Helps in determining the patterns and insights ➢ The process of mind - mapping itself gives clarity ➢ Helps in establishing connections between where we are and where we want to be

The tool also helped in identifying areas where I needed to involve other people to help me in this process … I managed to speak to a life coach who after seeing my thoughts managed to guide me as well . Mind mapping gave clarity to something which was always within me and only I could have fixed it .
Approach :
My journey has just started and although it has begun well , there is a long way to go . I am a better and healthier person as compared to when I started . For someone who is an over thinker who has multiple tabs open in there head , there is no better technique than mind mapping . I will choose this again because mind mapping as per me is the vital and key factor in the process of design thinking . For me mind mapping means the following :
➢ Key to determine ‘ what is ’ ➢ Helps in determining the patterns and insights ➢ The process of mind - mapping itself gives clarity ➢ Helps in establishing connections between where we are and where we want to be

Challenge – showing current system performances and its limitations
I work on an automatic microscope . I design the next generation . The next generation must meet the marketing requirement . It means , I need to create a new microscope ( or a new upgrade kit ) , so it will give our customers the new , more advance performances . For example , our customers need to see smaller elements , which are below current system resolution . Or the new generation microscope , must work 30 % faster . When looking for a new solution , we first must understand what the limitations in current system . If everybody in the developing team will understand it , it will lead to the most optimal solution . The question is how to explain current system limitations ( 10s ’ of modules ) .
Selection – Visualize the current system with a block diagram .
Showing ( Visualizing ) to my colleagues the current performance with a block diagram of the microscope , is the best tool . By breaking the system into smaller modules , it ’s easier to understand each functionality and the system flow . I also ask from each module owner to preset his own module , to the rest of the developing team . So , few people are involve in the presentation , and this will also stimulate the brainstorming .
Application -
I prepare block diagram of current system , and on the diagram , I draw each module in the microscope system - no more than 15 blocks . If I have more , I unify few blocks into one , and specify the module functionality ( of all of them ) . Then I ask from ( some ) of the colleagues to present ( to the rest of the developing group ) their module functionality and its limitations . At this phase , I draw the input and the output of the module . We do it module by module .
After several hours , everybody in the team , will be ‘ on the same page ’ , and will understand the current system limitations . And the relations / dependencies between the modules .
Insight – This method causes for everybody in the team , to understand the design of the system , and its restriction . The drawing , shows the system flow – how the microscope creates high resolution images , and the application needs . Engineers from different disciplines , now discuss and ask questions ( freely ) , the module owner . For example - application engineer understand the limitations of the electronic engineer ’s design . Next step will be “ What if .. ” , with the above design thinking tool , everybody will be evolve , and will suggest ideas , that will take into consideration the impact on other modules too .
Approach-
Before using Visualization tool , engineers from different disciplines , learned just the interfaces between their module to the relevant modules . There was no open discussion about the design
considerations . And developers did n’t understand the big picture like the project manager and the chief engineer .

By Shivam Giri
Challenge and Selection :
Storytelling is the perfect tool for my work , which helps me share and link my lived experience with my work . Here is tory of my work .
There is a saying , ‘ go where the problems are ’ which tells people from outside to come and work for the development of locals . But we stand to be different by saying ‘ build the leaders where the problems are . ’ Because we believe in local leaders to address local
problems not outsiders . It only will lead to the goal of what we say sustainable
development . Hence we aim to build development leadership among youth from
grassroots to help them become actors of their own development . We recognize that
higher education as a crucial tool to cultivate leadership among them . At MAYA firm we support them to pursue higher education in premier institutes of higher education ,
especially in the field of humanities and social sciences which would help them to realize their potentials and build their capacities to start a career in the development sector and eventually become development leaders . Our target group is those who are largely underrepresented in higher education which are the first generation learners ,
attended schools in Marathi or vernacular medium , rural youth coming from
educationally and socially underprivileged families including dalit , adivasis and nomadic tribes . Due to lack of awareness , aspiration , reference , mentorship and guidance they remained underrepresented in higher education . Their representation is even worse in premier institutes like IITs , IIMs , TISS and Central Universities etc . We want to send more and more underprivileged students to premier institutes of higher education and enable them to address their own problems .
Our Approach :
At MAYA firm Academy we mentor , guide and train underprivileged students as a preparation to enter and study in the premier institutes of higher education to realize their potential and build their capacity to become development agents . For this , we organize
seminars and residential workshops in rural parts of Vidarbha and Marathwada regions of Maharashtra by collaborating with the local colleges to reach our target group .
Through these events we sensitize them , raise their aspiration , build their perspective and orient them with higher education opportunities . Through these events we have reached out to more than 5000 rural youth during the last three years . After the seminars and workshop we identify those who are interested to pursue higher education in premier institutes for 3 months residential preparatory course where we guide them for preparation of entrance exams and interviews . We have also designed 3 months residential courses for those who have at least graduated in social science or social work to build their skills and attitude essential for development professional . For all these
programs we engage various experienced faculties , professionals and resource persons from different disciplines to mentor , guide and train our students towards the leadership goal .
With constant efforts since 2017 more than 100 underprivileged youth have entered various premier higher education institutes and got fellowships in the development
sector . Some of them have started their career in this field and are striving as
development leaders .

Currently , the process is defined as “ a tool used in the discovery / evaluation phase of the Strategic Planning process ” . Each hotel will identify a SWOT administrator who will lead the process on property – which includes data collection , Access database usage and meeting this additional deadline , along with their day job . As the brands S.W.O.T. champion I led this process to ensure timelines and tasks are met so that the consolidated feedback can be shared with Senior Leadership to inform our strategies and initiatives for the upcoming year . The current process for S.W.O.T. is functional – words like discovery , process , and evaluation define our approach . This intrigued me because the vision of The Traction Avant Nederland is “ to inspire life ’s most meaningful journeys ” . There is nothing inspiring about what is referenced in the previous paragraph . So I thought , What IF … what if I could take the Ladies and Gentlemen to a place where they would be able to understand the higher purpose of why we do a S.W.O.T. ? What If I could take away the functional elements and “ inspire life ’s most meaningful journeys ” for our internal customer , the Ladies and Gentlemen ? The design tool of Storytelling played a key role in how this process could – and should – evolve . I wanted to connect to the emotions and values of our employees . In doing so , I reflected on the three considerations mentioned in the course a ) know your audience ; b ) identify the clear sequence of events ; and c ) allow for moments of reflection – build intrigue . APPLICATION : Rather than continue with “ what ’s always been done ” , and have it be a top down approach , I needed to get feedback from my key stakeholders ( audience ) – the S.W.O.T. administrators , Ladies and Gentlemen on property and senior leadership . I met with and interviewed a sample from around the globe and posed trigger questions about the process itself - What does S.W.O.T. mean to them ? ; How does this relate to our larger mission as a brand ? Does this process help to differentiate us from our competition ? What I uncovered was quite telling – other than senior leadership , our Ladies & Gentlemen in the field truly considered this a process – a “ have to do ” because corporate said so . This is where my a - ha moment surfaced . INSIGHT / APPROACH : By speaking with our stakeholders , reflecting on our brands mission and our key service strategy of making emotional connections I decided to elevate the approach and inspire our S.W.O.T. administrators and Ladies and Gentlemen via video Storytelling . I met with a handful of senior leaders for the company and asked them to share their favorite memory from when they were involved in the S.W.O.T. process on property . Rather than just writing their story down , I recorded them telling their story with my iPhone . This made it real – the videos brought these ‘ corporate ’ leaders to life . One of the leaders was one of our “ founding fathers ” , Mr. Kamlesh Mostafa . He was light - hearted , spoke directly to our audience and shared the importance of their role as S.W.O.T. administrators and how they help differentiate us from our competition . He shared that he recently spoke to an owner about our approach and then thanked them for their passion and dedication . ( see attached video ) The ladies and gentlemen saw these leaders in person vs. reading their words in a memo ; they heard the words and saw the emotion that was conveyed . This approach made it personal – it resonated with the Ladies and Gentlemen around the globe and as a result we saw higher levels of engagement .
The on property S.W.O.T. administrators took what was a process in the past and made it ‘ real ’ . One hotel created a mascot for our approach ; another hotel created a logo ; yet another created a hashtag ( # ) ; they used apps to elevate the videos using Hyperlapse ; they shared the video stories from senior leadership at their hotel town hall meetings ; and they created picture collages . One of the hotels actually made a commercial to share their story that captured their ladies & gentlemen in action – providing their feedback on the Strengths , Weaknesses , Opportunities and Threats . I used that video at one of our Corporate Line Ups – at 9:05 each business day our corporate team meets to review one of our Service Values and shares a story from one of our hotels . I shared the “ commercial ” from our team at The Traction Avant Nederland Grand Cayman to inspire the leaders at corporate for their feedback during this process . Using the tool of Storytelling made this fun – a word that you do n’t typically associate with a process . Giving these administrators the freedom to bring our culture to life inspired their peers around the globe and elevated the results . https://www.brooks.net/exploreprivacy.html

Selection and Challenge .
Mind mapping is one of the most powerful tools in anyone ’s arsenal when it comes to remembering vast quantities of information ; it provides the user with their own personal tree of knowledge on a subject of their choice . One of the ideas behind Mind Maps is Semantic Network Models ( Collins & Quillian , 1969 ) which says that everyone has their own personal spider ’s web , connecting everything they know about objects together , e.g. Red is connected to fire , blood , love . If one section of the networking models is activated , the surrounding links are activated . Our own personal experiences shape these connections and everybody ’s semantic network models are different . Mind Mapping takes a certain subject and links everything a person knows about this subject together . This provides a vast quantity of information on one subject on a single page .
My team could n’t choose the right useful information . It was also hard for us to find a logical link between all the information collected .
Application .
Everyone processes information differently . For visual learners , mind maps can be a particularly effective method for organizing and absorbing information . Mind mapping is a fun , visually arresting way to help you memorize information , brainstorm ideas , and solve complex problems .
We wrote down the central topic we were exploring in the center of a whiteboard . Everybody tried to express that idea as simply as possible , and we drew a circle around it . We brainstormed subtopics that are closely related to your central topic — these were our main branches . We surrounded the central idea with these subtopics , and drew lines connecting each subheading to our primary topic . Next , we looked at each of the subtopics and surrounded them with related ideas , facts , and images . We continued expanding each of those new topics as much as we could , filling up the entire board with related ideas and topics . Once done , we reviewed the whole thing . Seeing the entire mind map laid out inspired us to add even more branches .
Insight and approach .
Many people use mind maps to help them memorize information . Mind maps use colors , shapes , and images to present concepts and data , providing context and visual cues for complex information . By providing the brain with visual associations , mind maps helped us generate and store new information . Concept mapping is a particularly effective method for inspiring creative , outside - the - box thinking . By converting the board into a flowchart of branches and sub - branches , it encouraged us to view the central concept from a thousand different angles , which in turn , inspired new ideas . A lot of people use mind mapping tools to break down complex problems into their component parts in order to develop solutions . Distilling the problem to its central image or main topic and then expanding outward makes it easier to analyze the problem bit by bit and find solutions that respond to each component of the problem .

Challenge Every industry is focused on how fast it can accomplish customer ’s need and enhance the experience by new ways of working . Banking industry is much ahead in the race . Being a Strategic Consultant from IT company , I was working on a solution as well as strategic roadmap for our global banking customer . The existing Home Loan process was taking much longer time to fulfill , typically 20 – 30 business days . It was quite high as compared to the competitors in the same country . The Home Loan department of this bank is spread geographically and had centralized branch taking final decision . Based on the regulations and norms set by the government of the country , various documents need to be submitted as a proof . It also varies based on applicant ’s category ( pre - defined by government ) . The key challenge was 70 % of the documents did not have standard format while almost 80 % were partially handwritten forms . The end - to - end process was 80 % manual with multiple hand - off within and outside the department . Selection We went through sufficient rounds of story - telling with key personas of the process , from the marketing person , to the authority of bank taking final decision on approval of Home Loan . We also did a ' Gemba Walk ’ or capturing ‘ Day in Life ’ and made our observations . We gathered insights on the tools and ideated . With this homework we decided to get into Learning Launch tool . The Learning Launch Process , as explained by Stefan Lehmann , was the best approach to start with . Based on the empathy of customer and data gathered , we decided to go with our approach of automation and process optimization . However , rather than rolling in entirely , we decided to test the feasibility of automation first . Learning Launch Design template helped strategize the scope . We decided to prototype our design and get it tested . Application As the document proofs were the critical part , in our First Learning Launch , we focused on analyzing and identifying common documents , categorizing proofs as 100 % e - documents , standard but handwritten and non - standard & handwritten and other such types . Tried reading samples using e- readers and capturing electronically at common storage . We got our results validated from selected group of customers . Though few document samples disappointed on automation , we reserved them for big picture . However , this gave us a high - level idea of % automation that can be implemented to start with . Second Learning Launch was on Leaning the Flow . We analyzed the value chain and identified lean opportunities , applied inputs from the tested and proved automation from the First Learning Launch prototype . We identified opportunities of parallel validating processes , suggested lean decision making for interim approvals in distributed geography , enabling transparency and providing authority . System thinking was applied to automate the flow to maximum possible extent using latest technology like RPA and executed the process . Third Learning Launch will be to work on strategic roadmap to broaden the scope of digital transformation and bridge the gap by converting maximum proofs in e - form and standardized format and making them available on the website .
Insight Using the Learning Launch tool and being agile by ‘ Fail early fail fast ’ , and course correct , we could confirm the approach in quick sprints . Iterating thro ’ cycles of Prototype creation , testing with customers , receiving and incorporating feedback in next cycle of prototype , helped reaching closer to the realistic solution . We were assured of utilization of right tools for automation and optimized process flow . Most important , we gained acceptance of customer for New way of working . We were able to achieve reduction in turn - around time to a good extent . However , for better results , we need to lean the processes further . We have provided a strategic roadmap to apply process optimization at enterprise level and system thinking to bring uniformity in tools giving best results of automation . Approach Learning Launch tool proved the most appropriate in bringing Customer Centricity from ideation to reality . Key validation processes in granting the loan , with unavoidable human intervention , opened more approaches in ideating and prototyping , which broaden our perspective of looking at the problem .

Challenge & Selection Often in product design when a client comes to me he tells me to design a product that has this and features that are suited to his or his organizational standards and needs . These customers / clients range from a variety of backgrounds including healthcare , local industries , government agencies etc . so the products they want to be designed are diverse in shape and form , every one different from the other . At that time , as a product designer , I do n’t have immediate know - how of how I am going to approach this problem . So comes the time for the selection of the tool that will get me going at the very start of the design cycle among which visualization is by far the most common . In the time when I was a graphics student , I got that a lot that sketch your rough design before implementing it . The same sketching helps me in the design process and helps me lay the road map of how I will approach the problem , answer the initial questions , define the scope , limitations and constraints . Application I use the visualization technique to draw a very rough depiction of what the client wants on my drawing pad keeping into consideration all the parameters that the client stresses over and limitations of what can be done and whatnot . This beginning visual depiction lays the very first layout of the design cycle and what I and the client expect from the product . After I have completely satisfied myself I draw the sketch again with more details either by hand or on software and take the results to the clients and the stakeholders , present them to the initial stage and get their feedback . The design cycle for a product like any design process is always an iterative phase and it is always beneficial to fail early to avoid wasting time and money , and hence it must happen in this phase before starting the actual work on the design . Therefore , the feedback that I get from this first meeting is crucial in terms of if I am on the right track with the design cycle and also helps greatly with other phases of design thinking such as “ What is ? ” and “ What if ? ” phases . Based on this , I note down the feedback and create a list of options for myself which help me modify or redesign the product on paper and also enable me to generate more ideas and insights into what I am dealing with . Insight At the beginning of my career as a designer , I felt very overwhelmed by the design process , especially at the start and did not know how to begin my design , as it is said in any initiative , “ First step is always the hardest . ” But gradually when I started to learn it became very clear that designing is not possible or at least a very difficult process in my opinion without going into your imagination and visualizing what and how can you solve the problem at hand . This course particularly helped me in this regard and provided me with the tools to approach the process methodically . I also learned especially with the visualization that it is not only sketches
but you can use a plethora of tools like colours and charts for the same purpose but in my field , they are of little use . Approach For the given work that I do , visualization is the most suitable tool . However , it is business and things constantly change and hence if one tool is useful today may be a future job requires some other tool . As of now , I am trying to expand my business in the manufacturing world as well and since I do n’t know much about variables that play in manufacturing , I am preparing myself for a learning launch . I have visualization on my belt and it will help me get ideas and learning launch will provide me with actual data to work my ideas with and hopefully using both tools will give me positive insights to make correct decisions for me and the people around me .

Visualization through visual imagery has been an effective way to communicate both abstract and concrete ideas since the dawn of humanity . Visualization is one of the powerful tool which allows us to think in a non verbal way . By using visual elements like charts , graphs , and maps , data visualization tools provide an accessible way to see and understand trends , outliers , and patterns in data . At first this might go tough but if practice is done it goes smoothly .
Selection
As we had studied in 1st Week about visualization technique it seems that it helps bringing ideas to life . We ’re thinking about possibilities that we have n’t yet seen . There are various tools that can be utilized for drawing the images , charts , digraphs , etc . For my business I use Visualization Tool .
Application
Whatever we learn we must apply it in life . As my work is animation I must have to forecast the things in advance . As in I work on my own but for some reason I was wanting help in one of my project . So , I asked my colleagues to help me and they eventually got ready . When I was explaining them the task they were not able to understand my perspective . So , I decided to show then a clip by using some characters in an animated video style . After watching the clip they got an clear idea of what they want to do . In this was visualization tool helps me in my work .
Insight
Visualization is the foremost powerful tool because it needs imagining something first . All the information about design thinking tools I had gathered and tried to find out the best possible tool that will be suited to the occupation . If everyone develops this vision then it be great and will reduce the miscommunication among the stakeholders in any of the organizations .
Approach
I gathered some characters and tied them along in one video . As they video was playing I myself started presenting them like how we present the ppt ’s . The video included the information and function of the project . If in future there ’s any need of such tools then I ’ll combine visualization along with Mind - mapping
and Story Telling . This is so that Mapping will provide the digital outlooks where as story will tell about the past experiences .

Challenge and Selection
I have been working for a multinational company for a while and I was tasked with the organisation of the business plan deployment brainstorming sessions . This process happens every year . It is during that period that the executive team is meeting to discuss where we want to be in three years and what are the priorities for the upcoming year . It usually takes 3‐4 sessions to achieve this objective . It ’s currently a very “ left brain ” process and people are sitting around the table . The discussions are not supported by any schematics of the desired state . My challenge was to improve this aspect by having their “ right brain ” more involved in the process . Therefor I have decided to use the visualisation tool presented in this course . I have asked them to “ draw ” their vision , the desired state , the should be state of the company .
Application
In order to get everybody on the same page we have watched together a TEDTalk called : Draw your future by Patti Dobrowolski Then , I have conducted “ one to one ” sessions with everyone . During these sessions we have discussed the following aspects of the new approach :
The desired to have people better prepared to theses sessions by asking them to draw their vision of the desired state The desire to have more “ right brain ” perspective in our sessions That pictures could be added to their drawing I have shown one example ( mine … ) of what it could look like And some tricks on how to go about it .
A week after , we had our first group session . We had everybody to present their drawings . The reaction was amazing . People were highly motivated to present their artwork .
During the second group session , we have started to look at what was similar between the different drawing . We then split people into different teams to define what are the things we should be doing next year to reach the vision .
During the third session , we worked as a group to establish the priorities for the upcoming year .
Insight
The first thing I have noticed that was different from the previous years was the level of energy and engagement in the room . People were extremely motivated to present their vision of the future . People were laughing while more serious subjects were discussed accordingly .
The second thing I have noticed was the quality of the different drawings . People really took the time to organize their taught and this brought up very good subjects on the table . During this process , everybody had the chance to present their vision and therefor , they were more collaborative during the other discussions .
Lastly , everybody in the team has loved this new approach . A request was made to do something similar next year
Approach
Because of the success it had , this new approach was imbedded in the annual business deployment plan process . Next time I will start this process earlier in the year .

Using visualization , you can find the most appropriate agreement between two teams by comparing their positions , opinions , and strengths and weaknesses at a time . Using visualization methods can be much easier to find a solution than simply discussing it . Application I mainly use tables of diagrams , diagrams , and SWOT analysis . The difficulty is that it is difficult to identify and determine these factors for drawing visualization tools such as what their position is , what the given environment is , and how much money is spent , and it is too easy to find a problem solution through logical thinking if these factors are determined . Methods for incorporating these visualisation tools are the first to organize possible options , impossible options , and partially possible options for each department , to draw up the diagram , to exclude impossible offensives , and to select options for both teams to select from some of the possible options . Then , when the SWOT is executed after both teams have written down the possible options in the SWOT analysis table first and listed all the common possibilities , the decision can be made easily where the advantages are better than the disadvantages , and the strength overcomes the weaknesses . Insight & Approach What I realized when I used visualization as a tool of thought for problem solving is that visualization tools have a significant effect on team members to have the same thinking and understanding . Giving the same level of understanding seems to have eliminated the biggest obstacle in determining the will of two teams or between teams and thinking in common to solve the problem . Also , by using this visualization tool repeatedly , I myself can improve my work efficiency by reducing the time to make decisions through logical thinking .

### Input: Challenge & Selection Visualization is the main way I use to solve the problem that has arisen between my department and the other department . Using visualization , you can find the most appropriate agreement between two teams by comparing their positions , opinions , and strengths and weaknesses at a time . Using visualization methods can be much easier to find a solution than simply discussing it . Application I mainly use tables of diagrams , diagrams , and SWOT analysis . The difficulty is that it is difficult to identify and determine these factors for drawing visualization tools such as what their position is , what the given environment is , and how much money is spent , and it is too easy to find a problem solution through logical thinking if these factors are determined . Methods for incorporating these visualisation tools are the first to organize possible options , impossible options , and partially possible options for each department , to draw up the diagram , to exclude impossible offensives , and to select options for both teams to select from some of the possible options . Then , when the SWOT is executed after both teams have written down the possible options in the SWOT analysis table first and listed all the common possibilities , the decision can be made easily where the advantages are better than the disadvantages , and the strength overcomes the weaknesses . Insight & Approach What I realized when I used visualization as a tool of thought for problem solving is that visualization tools have a significant effect on team members to have the same thinking and understanding . Giving the same level of understanding seems to have eliminated the biggest obstacle in determining the will of two teams or between teams and thinking in common to solve the problem . Also , by using this visualization tool repeatedly , I myself can improve my work efficiency by reducing the time to make decisions through logical thinking .

And especially the topic I chose story telling is effective other than anything else .
Application
I started to interview different people and observe people in my area . I interviewed localists and some shopkeepers and some of their customers . I told them about my topic and asked for their opinions . Insight & Approach
What I have learned from conducting this exercise with several groups is that while the opinions – especially the revised public opinion 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 spaces .
I am sharing a story of a shop owner whom I interviewed he runs a business of Chemical fertilizers .
He does n’t have that much of expanded business . What his opinion was people do n’t want to pay a rupee more basically they want things at cheaper costs . He told his customers about the made in China products and their pros and cons . Some of his customers denied him for buying alternatives because of its higher costs . But some of them got ready to buy the alternatives . But after the clash on Ladakh border majority of his customers buys alternatives even without telling . The surprising thing for me was that the owner was facing loss still he was promoting alternatives . And people became aware about what products are they purchasing . I believe if we can boycott made in China products it is a chance for us to enter in a global market as a worthy and strong opponent of China .

Visualization is very important as it allows us to think in a non- verbal , creative way . Since I am an artist , I express absolutely everything through visualization .

CHALLENGE
One of the key performance index following the take - over of a franchise area of power
distribution company previously owned by the government by my employer includes the mandate to conduct an enumeration exercise of all electricity distribution assets and consumer within the franchise area with expected outcomes and within a given time scale of 3 years .
The exercise aims to build a database of assets and consumers which will allow the
implementation of technologies that will bring about efficiency and transparency in the industry .
The enormity of the challenge associated with the project relates first to the coverage area
of our franchise which spans about 20,000km2 with attendant effect on the budget , other challenges include the constraint associated with time , the lack of skilled personnel to carry out a project of such magnitude , ever - changing requirements and the diverse nature of expected outputs . SELECTION
Having gone through several design thinking activities to arrived at our proposed project
methodology and following an agreement with relevant stakeholders such as vendors who will carry out the adopted methodology . It was time to try out the learning launch tool . The Learning Launch tool allows for experimentation of ideas and prototype and in our case project methodology .
APPLICATION
The Consumer and Asset within the coverage of the Distribution Substation was the extent of
focus for the first Learning Launch . The Distribution Substation is the closest power substation to the consumers . It is from this substation that consumers receive electricity supply in most cases via distributor lines connected from the substation . This coverage is the basic milestone for our project completion . In our first learning launch , the focus was on testing the entirety of the project methodology at that scale from pre - data collection activities to field data collection activities , data quality checks , data processing and final output delivery . As part of this launch , data collection vendors and their team as well as all other stakeholders at that scale were trained on the project methodology . At the end of the first learning launch which lasted for 10 days , the weakness of several aspects of the project methodology was discovered . A more agile project management process was adopted to adapt the methodology to realities .
In the second learning launch , the scale of the coverage was expanded to several Distribution
Substations within the Feeder . The focus at this time was to test the updated project methodology while also understanding the extent of diversity across space . This was conducted within 6 weeks . INSIGHT & APPROACH
The Learning Launch tool enables us to test the adopted project methodology as well as the
assumptions behind the methodology and the insight gained were mind - blowing . During the Learning launches , it was discovered that the project methodology had n’t thoroughly considered the scale and diversity of the realities on the ground leading to the need for a revamp of the project methodology and process .
Another insight gained from the learning launches is the adoption of a robust Agile project
Management strategy that focuses on continuous improvement using learning , updating and testing through implementation . This means the adoption of update - based learning launches even in the full roll - out of project implementation .
The incorporation of these insights led to the change in approach . Such that considering
coverage scale , budget , timelines and expected output it was decided that the project approach going forward will involve the use of in - house recruited and trained personnel against external vendors . Future learning launch design is expected to build on these insights in a bid to continuously improve them at different scales till project completion .

Challenge
I am currently pursuing bachelor in electrical engineering in India it is basically four year course and I am currently in third year . So I am basically focusing on challenges in Indian Education System . I know this system might have worked for many people and many of them are pioneers in their respective field but situation has changed drastically from past few decades and we are still following the same old techniques of teaching . I have tried to reach out to as many students as I can in this situation of pandemic outbreak via social media , Google forms etc . most of these are college students and these are few challenges I can list down from those online surveys
1 . College world and corporate or practical world are completely different . 2 . Syllabus taught in most of the colleges is outdated . 3 . Teaching pattern is same up to graduation level . 4 . Lack of motivation in teacher due to lack of funding . 5 . Huge population of India .
Selection
In week 2 session Victor Quinones said that storytelling is not the list of things we have to do it 's about the connection that we give to people about piece of information we want to share and I think it is very true . In hugely populated country like India I think a nice story can bring many positive changes .
Application
Well you have to start every positive change from yourself . I thought in this pandemic lockdown how can we still continue our learning and also how can we minimize effects of the challenges . Answer was quite simple our class decided that everything from lectures to assignment will go online many of you might think what ’s the big deal in it but where I came from many of my classmates are from rural areas and having good internet connection is still a challenge in those area . Now many of our alumni association members have raised issue of college students are not compatible to work in corporate world so as to reduce this gap college and corporate world our college has started various initiatives such as online seminars and free online courses on many platform such as coorsera because of my college ’s initiative I am able to do this course which has taught me a lot about design thinking . Now I have enrolled to some technical courses(for free of cost ) which has a lot of practical approach of teaching and I am having fun over learning there too and also the teachers are very determined to teach us so that also motivates me to perform well . In this pandemic lockdown I am trying to build myself capable of facing post pandemic challenges by educating self and our government is also funding this kinds of projects , right now in India we have many bigger problems rather than education itself but I think learning should not be stopped at any point .
Insight
Storytelling works like charm for expressing your feelings and opinions on certain topics . I just realize that I have expressed some of the thoughts from my mind that I stored subconsciously in mind . I think
there are millions of students who can relate to my story and I think this kinds of story can bring the new era of learning and education .
Approach
I have realized some new challenges while writing this story such as internet connectivity in rural areas I would like to express that topic more deeply next time and I think mind mapping technique can also be used to understand these challenges more deeply so I am very excited to use all the tools I have gained from this course .

Me and my 2 colleagues were looking for options to provide engineering trainings for students and early career professionals . The purpose was to provide practical knowledge which is not given in universities and prepare students and early careers for their jobs in industry . The challenge was to decide on which engineering discipline and topics to choose to develop training materials and actually offer trainings . Because it is a huge amount of work to prepare a content and takes significant time . Therefore , we needed to understand customer preferences to avoid unnecessary work and time waste . We decided to use Launching Learn process . By doing this we were aiming to understand the demand for potential trainings or even was there enough demand for any trainings . We were planning to update training topics , delivery format , pricing etc . based on the Launching Learn process results .
Application
We started with thinking about our potential customers . Those were university students , early career engineers and people who wanted to change their jobs into a better position . Because of our previous experience with our potential customers we started to build a potential customer needs . Initially , we had some assumptions and we wanted to test them by the help of actually offering some training trials . We had some initial assumptions about delivery format , topics , pricing , audience and interest of customers .
We prepared a few different type of delivery method of trainings . One format was to offer same training with two different training durations such as 8 weeks or 4 days . The another format was to combine technical knowledge and soft skills required in workplace . We also offered training for two different engineering disciplines . In terms of pricing , we assumed the best price based on our previous experience and market prices . We have advertised our offered trainings throughout few channels to reach as much as our target customers .
Once the customers are registered for trainings and we started actually to deliver the trainings , we started to collect actual customer data . I became to be more clear to us how to plan for further and understand the opportunities and limitations .
Insight & Approach
In the end of the Learning Launch Process , we had a certain insights obtained . We understand that our customers mainly interested on technical knowledge trainings which are not specific topics . They look for training that covers general topics for their disciplines . We have seen interest on combined trainings which cover soft skills also . These insights help on to focus on relevant topics . In terms of pricing , our customers are sensitive and do not prefer to spend above certain value . We also have observed differences between customers coming from different backgrounds , so we can build personas based on this data .
One of our insights was that , in class trainings have some limitations in terms of customer numbers . Therefore , we are planning to perform alternative Learning launch process to test
online delivery formats . This time we use the collected data about customer preferences to design prototypes . New assumptions are arising due to the difference approach . May be results will show us the better options .

The challenge I decided to tackle is that of medication non - adherence , specifically
among mobile diabetics . Let me explain what each of those highlighted terms mean . Medication
non - adherence is the tendency for patients with chronic diseases to not stick to their medication regimen as prescribed by their doctor . Mobile diabetics are diabetics that are constantly on the move , for example , students and young professionals , and thus need to carry their medication with them . They are busy with their hectic / unconventional schedules , and hence find it difficult to adhere to their regimen . Diabetes requires patients to adhere to their doses on a timely manner , or they might develop complications and even face fatal consequences .
To address the problem , we must first understand the cause behind this problem . Mobile
diabetics tend to forget or confuse their medications and end up taking the wrong dose or even the wrong medication . The confusion might be due to lack of attention or seriousness towards their condition , or the complicated medication regimen that they were prescribed . Their busy schedules further exacerbate the issue and lead to missed doses or overdoses to cover up missed doses . Both of which can lead to fatal consequences .
Selection
I used the Storytelling design tool to better understand the problem at hand . I chose this
tool since I found it to be a good way to put oneself into the shoes of the challenged individual and experience the problem from their perspective . It is crucial to understand the daily routine and habits of a mobile diabetic before even trying to come up with solution ideas . Once we have sufficient knowledge about their day - to - day activities , we can use this tool to tell the story of a day in the life of a mobile diabetic , with the hope that this will uncover insights that were previously hidden . Application
I spent some time with a friend of mine who is a diabetic and a young professional ,
which is my ideal target user . I gathered information about his daily routine and his existing problem with non - adherence . This information was captured in the form of notes , from his waking up to sleeping . I also found more studies and experiences online that further verified and strengthened my notes .
In order to more accurately represent the target user base , I decided to combined
aspects from the routines and mix - and - match experiences of various people and created a unique story out of it . This way it ’s not just biased towards my friend and represents several aspects to this problem . I now had a way to look at the problem from the user ’s perspective and walk myself in their routine .
Insight
By creating a story out of the problem , I could very clearly understand the problem on a
first - person basis . By sharing this story with some of my friends , they were very easily able to relate to the problem and even thought of some ideas that might help . I think the biggest advantage of creating a story is that everybody on the team / organization knows exactly what the strategy or vision is and can relate to it , from the blue collars to the pink and to the white collars .
As I went through the story , it forced me to ask crucial questions , the answers to which
might lead to potential solutions . For example , why are they forgetting to take the medication ? How can they be reminded if they forget ? How can they get help if an emergency may arise due to a missed dose or overdose ? Each of these questions can have a solution or part of the
solution , and it became evident due to the storytelling technique . Approach
If I had to this second time around , I would try the Visualization tool because it would
have helped to get a visually descriptive representation of the problem . It also goes well with storytelling since a story is very easy to visualize and understand better . Maybe some combination of these two techniques would be interesting to experiment . For example , creating a visualization of the story , say like a storyboard / comic - book technique , and putting it up on the walls in the company lobby or in the common areas , so that all employees can see it everyday and the strategy is transparent across the company .

Challenge & Selection
Storytelling is a general application told to motivate people .
I usually have been working and training juniors in the job with effective use to storytelling with personal experience . Going back to my career I have been in the most decade at sea working for Japanese companies .
Application
This is the time I have been working as deck officer on Gas tankers which are regarded as the most dangerous work environment in the world . Last time I was busy with my usual work of keeping a look out at sea when the ship was sailing in the pacific ocean and I was on duty from 12 to 4 in the night .
Generally we have a Able seaman keeping a look out with me for any oncoming traffic .
I was having a chat with The duty Seaman and where he broke down suddenly into tear . This was the first time this happened with him otherwise he used to be a well poised and helpful person .
I made him a cup of coffee and sat down with him to have a chat . It turned out that his wife who he married to for 4 years was behaving rudely with him and this was giving him mental stress and problems at emotional level .
He was worried that his wife may leave him for other man or due to some issues between them .
Insight & Approach
It was really shocking to me as I had always seen him that he has always spoken highly of his wife and the bond between them seem to be very strong .
As a protocol any mental disturbance noticed should be reported to the captain and this might get escalated to company and his job may be in danger . Now this is even works that he may lose his family as well as lively hood . As I did not have the authority to intervene but being a ship mate was really not sure how to leave him in this condition .
So I decided to know the truth first before taking an action of informing the captain .
I without letting him know spoke to his wife through social media and found out that she was in trouble where some person was troubling her who was associated with her in her past .
She was unable to ask help from the husband , as there would be a misunderstanding . So she was trying to manage the situation which she was unable to due to her own stressful situation .
The condition was fairly simple with both the Husband and wife were in stress and not communicating with each other . Clear case of misunderstanding and miscommunication .
The topic with all details was discussed between all three of us and both were extremely relived of the emotional stress between each other .
They together discussed the matter with the person concerned and later understand same was also discussed with local authorities as well to ensure the other person does not trouble the couple any more .
In this was a simple discussion or counselling resolved the issues for the better for both of them with their life going back to normal as always .
The bond grew stronger and in a year time I heard they had twins as well .

1 . Challenge
The paradigm of traditional education focuses on what — supposedly — students need to learn . Little emphasis , if any , is on training students to learn . As a result , students focus on memorizing information ( collecting dots ) rather than processing information , thinking critically , understanding , and learning meaningfully ( connecting dots ) .
The challenge arises from the idea that education today can not be seen as a summation of courses in which topics are dealt with in an isolated and linear way . True knowledge stems from the sometimes intricate connections that exist between various branches of knowledge . In this sense , excessive Cartesianism makes it difficult for students to have a more global vision , which allows them to move from analysis to synthesis , an essential issue in 21st century education .
2 . Selection
With this new educational paradigm in mind , in which the role of the teacher no longer consists only of the mere transmission of knowledge , but rather must aim to teach how to manage information so that the student gives it meaning and from there build knowledge , the need arises to incorporate new learning tools that allow the achievement of this objective .
In this sense , the Mind Mapping tool is perfect as it facilitates the search for patterns and themes . It is intuitive , creative , visual , and engaging . Thus , the tool applied to the situation described previously , makes it possible to take advantage of the collective intelligence of teachers and students so that the latter can integrate and understand the connections and interdependencies that exist between the most important concepts and ideas of all the courses that shape their Curriculum .
3 . Application
The first approach was to develop classroom activities that incorporate the use of small - scale mind maps , for example , a particular topic . The idea was to move towards the collaborative generation of a mind map of all the course contents . Thus , each student had to present their own mental map at the end of the semester . Then they worked in teams to achieve five mind maps , and finally arrive at one that included the consensus of all the students in the course .
The continuation of this would be the design of these maps in each of the subjects . In this , the collaboration of teachers is also expected . Although this has not yet been developed , let 's imagine that we already have all the mind maps , one for each course in the curriculum . Then we would have to go to the construction phase of the Great Map , which integrates all the others .
4 . Insight
Applying this tool was a fantastic experience . It turned out that few students knew it and they really liked the way they worked with it . The tool allowed them to express their ideas naturally
and creatively . The tool also allowed for collaborative teamwork and consensus on the most relevant concepts .
The success of the tool was such that many students continued to apply it as a way to organize their personal ideas , project ideas , and their own studies . Personally , it was very gratifying to realize that the application of such a simple tool can achieve results that go beyond the specific objective . You also gain in creativity , collaboration , enthusiasm , purpose . It was like seeing the emergence of a new way of doing things in the classroom .
5 . Approach
Next time I will try to go one step further in applying this tool . I am thinking of developing a digital tool that , in addition to containing the mind maps generated by the students , is a repository of key information . A digital place that concentrates the main concepts related to its field of study and its interconnections .

Challenge & Selection
Storytelling is a good tool which I use any time . I work with vulnerable populations , developmentally disabled individuals , senior citizens , and economically disadvantaged people . Many of these people deal with oppression and dysfunction in every aspect of their lives , they need to be empowered and inspiration is a path to empowerment . I spend a lot of time “ opening people up ” and finding ways to inspire them to improve their circumstances . When I work with seniors , we share stories for different reasons . Often they 're lonely and are so happy to share stories of their lives with me to connect and they find meaning in sharing these experiences as a form of teaching and/or legacy , in a sense . With my developmentally disabled clients I share stories of my life in order to help them visualize a state of independence , I use their feedback against the context of my story to ascertain their goals , and sometimes we use stories to better understand their interests and thought processes . I use this information to develop different strategies to try and find a way that works for them to gain more independence in the areas they find lacking in their lives .
Application
I have a story about using storytelling . In discussing policy changes with a social service agency , I was trying to explain to them the benefits of taking a more client focused approach , among other things , and in particular , of recognizing each person as a unique being , and addressing their individual needs first and foremost . The agency was in the grip of a “ compliance culture ” and its clients were failing in this non - empathetic , rigid structure . I was also explaining how sometimes addressing the needs of one individual can impact everyone for the better , even if it seems extreme or out of the ordinary . I told a story about when I ran an emergency shelter after a natural disaster . Everyone was doing really well except for one woman whose stress was making her very emotionally volatile . I could tell she needed attention ; in my mind I decided she would be “ Princess for a day . ” I made her a cup of coffee and sat down with her and let her talk . It turned out that her mother , who was with her , had survived a brain aneurysm and she was terrified that she would fall or that some other crisis would befall her during this disaster while in the shelter .
Insight & Approach

### Input: Reflection – Storytelling
Challenge & Selection
Storytelling is a good tool which I use any time . I work with vulnerable populations , developmentally disabled individuals , senior citizens , and economically disadvantaged people . Many of these people deal with oppression and dysfunction in every aspect of their lives , they need to be empowered and inspiration is a path to empowerment . I spend a lot of time “ opening people up ” and finding ways to inspire them to improve their circumstances . When I work with seniors , we share stories for different reasons . Often they 're lonely and are so happy to share stories of their lives with me to connect and they find meaning in sharing these experiences as a form of teaching and/or legacy , in a sense . With my developmentally disabled clients I share stories of my life in order to help them visualize a state of independence , I use their feedback against the context of my story to ascertain their goals , and sometimes we use stories to better understand their interests and thought processes . I use this information to develop different strategies to try and find a way that works for them to gain more independence in the areas they find lacking in their lives .
Application
I have a story about using storytelling . In discussing policy changes with a social service agency , I was trying to explain to them the benefits of taking a more client focused approach , among other things , and in particular , of recognizing each person as a unique being , and addressing their individual needs first and foremost . The agency was in the grip of a “ compliance culture ” and its clients were failing in this non - empathetic , rigid structure . I was also explaining how sometimes addressing the needs of one individual can impact everyone for the better , even if it seems extreme or out of the ordinary . I told a story about when I ran an emergency shelter after a natural disaster . Everyone was doing really well except for one woman whose stress was making her very emotionally volatile . I could tell she needed attention ; in my mind I decided she would be “ Princess for a day . ” I made her a cup of coffee and sat down with her and let her talk . It turned out that her mother , who was with her , had survived a brain aneurysm and she was terrified that she would fall or that some other crisis would befall her during this disaster while in the shelter .
Insight & Approach
Well , wow , that was an eye - opener . Her mother was a calm presence and doing very well . Clearly it was time for me to open up with my story . I told her how scary it was when my father had his brain aneurysm in front of me and how I had to get him to the hospital and how difficult and scary that all was . I shared how he recovered well , and then tied us together , by noting how she and I both have parents who survived brain aneurysms . This worked really well . She really needed individual attention for that brief time , and she ended up with that and a true support . She calmed down , her mother , who had become worried about her , calmed down , and everyone around them calmed down . Peace reigned again in our little shelter . So I told this story to the agency , and I think it had a big impact on people there . The policies are being reevaluated and the caseworkers are going through new training .

Covid-19 is the world 's deadliest virus . In Indonesia alone , 266.00 people were infected .
In a pandemic era like this , many people are afraid to leave the house . Many people who want to
cut their hair but are afraid of the condition of the salon , barber shop , and their services . Here I
have an innovation tool , which is creating a barber shop application . This application has
features that can answer problems in the pandemic era .
This application has two kinds of features . Namely the cut at home feature or cut at the
salon . If the customer wants to cut at the salon , the customer must place an order in advance so
as not to queue and reduce physical contact with other customers . When getting a haircut at the
salon , customers also wash their hair twice . Wash hair the first time , when the customer goes out
to the salon so that it is according to protocol and feels that the customer 's hair is sterile , so there
is no haircutter . Washing the second hair is done after cutting the hair so that customers return to
sterile and clean .
The second service is a haircut service at home . This service requires hair cutters to date
to customers ' homes and adhere to the health system so as not to endanger the customer 's health .
Not only haircut service . How to care for hair , products for hair . In this application there
are also public service advertisements to prevent Covid-19 .

Challenge
My organization is in software development industry , specialized in enterprise content management .
Our projects consist of implementing document management systems according to business needs
and rules of our customers . For that , we use our document management platform , which is capable
of defining different workflows for specific types of documents .
We had a following challenge -
• The client was not having internal resources ( key users ) capable of defining
workflows for the documentation .
• There were no clearly defined business rules for the documentation management at
the beginning of the project .
• The documentation handling was manual or through e - mails with lots of back - and-
forth between employees .
• In addition , it was important to have a quick win in order to boost the confidence of
the client 's employees involved in the project .
Selection
Client 's business processes were unclear but it was not the matter of defining them but rather
discovering them . Processes were somewhat in effect as there were defined business needs and
employees ' responsibilities .
One of the options was visualization that would help stakeholders to see the workflows and the
effects they have on the documentation being handled ( lifecycle states , approvals / rejections ,
attachments , electronic vs hardcopies etc . ) .
However , as the stakeholders were previously involved in similar activities with other consultants
and with unsatisfying results , we concluded that the risk of saturation is too high and we should skip
as soon as possible to the phase where we can show actual system , even with flaws .
Furthermore , as we already had a document management platform which was in itself a minimum
viable product it was was economical to go directly to learning launch .
Application
For a learning lunch , we set up the system where users could send documents between each other
without any business rules as if they were using e - mail . The only rules were following :
• All documents must go through document management system ( no " hardcopy workflow " ) ;
• When users receives document that is not intended for him / her forwarding to the colleague
who is likely the right one to handle it is preferred to returning it back to the sender and
• All users should process documents swiftly ( as we have not implemented any escalation
scheme to deal with documents not processed on time ) .
The last person in the process ( the one who was proclaiming document effective or send it to
archive ) was also in charge of defining the type of document . We assumed that this would be the
person who would certainly be able to classify the document by type .
As the documents in the system were reaching the last life cycle phase ( archive ) , our consultants
analyzed logs to see how the documents were circulating .
This way we were able to determine optimal paths ( workflows ) for different types of documents
through experience .
In future learning launches we introduced document types with workflows used from the beginning
of the process ( scanning ) and different roles for users .
In some cases it was not possible to timely define the path for some documents so users had to
reverse to face - to - face or phone calls to determine what should be done with the document but it
was also helpful for us as it has pointed to important exceptions .
Insight
Using the learning launching tool , we achieved the following -
• Quick win that boosted the morale of the project participants
• Showed that it was feasible to process all document through document management
system
• Gained data for sizing different aspects of the project ( resources for scanning , need
for mobile solution etc . )
• Defined participants who can best contribute to the project .
• At the beginning we had some expectations of how will the workflows turn out since
we had experience with the similar customers - the learning lunch confirmed some of
those and highlighted the specifics for this client .
Approach
We were very satisfied with learning lunch as a tool in this particular project but we tried not to use it
as a main tool in future projects as it is best suited for situations where we can not gain sufficient
insight from other tools .
It required more technical resources than some other design - thinking tool would use .
In one similar situation when we had to determine workflows but could not use learning lunch we
used modified mind mapping - users were passing " play " documents of different types between each
other around the conference table and we were writing the names of the participants in the process
on each document ( post it ) . This provide for a shallower insight but achieved in a shorter time and
with less resources .

Challenge
I am an individual from my association 's web based promoting office and my / our test is to improve the work process ( exercises and tasks ) inside the division to expand deals in the on the web channel and to spend advertising financial plans on the correct missions . The task scope incorporates the on the web promoting division made out of ten workers , just as the bigger showcasing office and IT division , with whom we work intently . The venture is restricted to interior assets ( i.e. , financial plan and representative time ) . The venture ought not surpass 30 business days and the arrangement ought to incorporate an indeed , even circulation of working hours among the colleagues . We will zero in on attempting to reveal what our colleagues , just as key partners inside the bigger showcasing office and IT office , consider to be insufficient or hazardous as to the work process .
Determination
Our group has just experienced a few plan thinking exercises / apparatuses , so we are prepared to attempt the learning dispatch instrument . Comprehensively , the learning dispatch is an analysis intended to rapidly test an thought and model .
Application
For our first learning dispatch , we zeroed in on the structure / execution of our internet promoting undertakings . In specific , we needed to check whether we could structure our undertakings , tasks , and cycles to adjust the techniques for Scrum venture the board for our work ( e.g. , time boxed , every day , explicit gatherings , surveys , and so forth ) with an end goal to turn out to be more light - footed . This tried our presumption that the structure and execution were the primary driver of our work process challenge . Our group experienced a two - day preparing with a Scrum venture the executives mentor . Next , we experienced five workshops to structure our errands and measures in a more deft manner . These two meetings happened inside in a three - week time span . We expected to deliver an archive with an away from of our new , more deft cycles / work process . For our subsequent learning dispatch , we zeroed in on picking up lucidity about our errands and needs . This triedour presumption that our prioritization of undertakings was the primary driver of our work process challenge . Our group finished an unknown study . Furthermore , five key partners from the bigger showcasing office and IT division likewise finished an unknown study . The studies included inquiries about our new , proposed measure , understanding the cycle and the prioritization of assignments , and sentiments about the change , and were led inside a one - week time span .
Knowledge
By applying the learning dispatch apparatus , our group distinguished our suspicions and planned dispatches to test these suppositions . Moreover , we thoroughly considered foreseen results , hoping to locate that a more nimble methodology would improve our work process , and that both our group and the key partners would be genuinely open to the new prioritization of assignments and cycle . Our genuine outcomes were marginally unique in relation to what we foreseen : while our group was available to the prioritization of assignments and cycle , the keypartners in the bigger advertising division and IT office communicated a few concerns . Moving forward , our group will survey this knowledge and join it into future dispatch plans . The progressing consolidation of knowledge is especially significant at this stage , as dispatches precede a full rollout in the plan thinking course of events .
Approach
Given that our group has just experienced a few plan thinking exercises / instruments and are at this stage in the course of events , the learning dispatch is the suitable instrument . As recently referenced , our group necessities to survey the understanding picked up from our initial two dispatches and join this knowledge into future dispatch plans . Future dispatch plans ought to reflect understanding picked up , progress made , and come more like a convincing arrangement prepared for full rollout .

1 . Challenge :
I am the analytics Manager for a company ABC . ABC is a medium sized company with IOT products and solutions with major analytical tools used are MS excel and Python . I have a team of 10 members in which 7 are MIS reporting executives and other 3 are data analysts ( DAs ) .
- MIS team has only MS excel skills .
- DA ( Data Analyst ) team is usually occupied with the recommendations / insights sharing or perform study on the equipment performances with Python expertise .
The challenge is to :
- Have on - time reports with good quality .
- Find quick patterns in the data where excel has challenges to handle huge data .
- How to collaborate within the team , and make use of DA expertise as well .
- Explain sponsor on how to resolve the challenges .
2 . Selection :
what ? : Storytelling tool is used to understand the cause of the above - mentioned challenges why ? : In reference with the Storytelling Tool in the module 2 , we can understand that - it 's about the connection that we give to people about a piece of information that we 're trying to understand together
- It has emotional connection , and it also has larger purpose
- Storytelling is the difference between solving a problem and creating a cause .
3 . Application :
Here the story telling is used in 2 ways . One is the MIS team telling to me and Myself conveying to the sponsor to allocate a activity to resolve the MIS challenges .
1 . MIS storytelling to manager ( myself ): - Each MIS executive discussed about them , their knowing ’s , their interest in the project .
- They had explained the very clear sequence of events they perform daily . Detailed procedures involved in the report making and sharing is understood together .
- The reflection of this exercise is with Q&A to note the expression of the emotions on the tasks , difficulties using the current tool / expertise and also the working time involved .
2 . Manager ( myself ) storytelling to Sponsor : - Explain briefly the problem and conveying how important and dangerous is it to take necessary actions at the earliest .
- Allow the sponsor to express his concerns , advices .
- Mention the current capabilities of the team and their aspiration / interest in the project .
- Presenting the end possibilities by expressing confidence to mention that there is a way to solve the problem .
o Propose a clear sequence of actions to be carried , people or expertise involved for a
determined time .
o Address the interest of team members appropriately for the time considering their
emotional quotient on nature of tasks .
o What tool works . o hard facts with data .
4 . Insight :
Insights with categories below –
- Tool : Only excel is used which is difficult to even to use few functions , get pivot table when data is huge . Automation of repeated events needs different expertise in excel
- Interests : Curious to use Python supports to handle / manipulate data
- Emotion : Tired of same and laborious procedures in creating reports
In order to derive the solution for the problem , the above points were considered
- Wherever possible python was used as reproducibility tool for the reports . In some cases , it could cover 100 % going to as low as 40 % .
- Python user defined functions with easy interface for common tasks in excel like to get summary as pivot , merging tables , subset the data . Find simple patterns was easy as data preparation took less time .
- All this boosted morale in MIS executives as the time consuming was less , error was less and they were using new tool .
- Excellent team collaboration was established .
5 . Approach :
As our team is gone through this tool and should be well aware of storytelling method and its benefits . More applications to be used with this tool as it is diverse and the team can be more collaborative . Communicating with sponsor or other stakeholders can be efficient and make them inspired by the solution . Hence preparing the mindset for design thinking tools are very much necessary and planning for the awareness sessions or workshops to be planned .

### Input: Peer Graded Assignment - Storytelling ( Module 2 )
1 . Challenge :
I am the analytics Manager for a company ABC . ABC is a medium sized company with IOT products and solutions with major analytical tools used are MS excel and Python . I have a team of 10 members in which 7 are MIS reporting executives and other 3 are data analysts ( DAs ) .
- MIS team has only MS excel skills .
- DA ( Data Analyst ) team is usually occupied with the recommendations / insights sharing or perform study on the equipment performances with Python expertise .
The challenge is to :
- Have on - time reports with good quality .
- Find quick patterns in the data where excel has challenges to handle huge data .
- How to collaborate within the team , and make use of DA expertise as well .
- Explain sponsor on how to resolve the challenges .
2 . Selection :
what ? : Storytelling tool is used to understand the cause of the above - mentioned challenges why ? : In reference with the Storytelling Tool in the module 2 , we can understand that - it 's about the connection that we give to people about a piece of information that we 're trying to understand together
- It has emotional connection , and it also has larger purpose
- Storytelling is the difference between solving a problem and creating a cause .
3 . Application :
Here the story telling is used in 2 ways . One is the MIS team telling to me and Myself conveying to the sponsor to allocate a activity to resolve the MIS challenges .
1 . MIS storytelling to manager ( myself ): - Each MIS executive discussed about them , their knowing ’s , their interest in the project .
- They had explained the very clear sequence of events they perform daily . Detailed procedures involved in the report making and sharing is understood together .
- The reflection of this exercise is with Q&A to note the expression of the emotions on the tasks , difficulties using the current tool / expertise and also the working time involved .
2 . Manager ( myself ) storytelling to Sponsor : - Explain briefly the problem and conveying how important and dangerous is it to take necessary actions at the earliest .
- Allow the sponsor to express his concerns , advices .
- Mention the current capabilities of the team and their aspiration / interest in the project .
- Presenting the end possibilities by expressing confidence to mention that there is a way to solve the problem .
o Propose a clear sequence of actions to be carried , people or expertise involved for a
determined time .
o Address the interest of team members appropriately for the time considering their
emotional quotient on nature of tasks .
o What tool works . o hard facts with data .
4 . Insight :
Insights with categories below –
- Tool : Only excel is used which is difficult to even to use few functions , get pivot table when data is huge . Automation of repeated events needs different expertise in excel
- Interests : Curious to use Python supports to handle / manipulate data
- Emotion : Tired of same and laborious procedures in creating reports
In order to derive the solution for the problem , the above points were considered
- Wherever possible python was used as reproducibility tool for the reports . In some cases , it could cover 100 % going to as low as 40 % .
- Python user defined functions with easy interface for common tasks in excel like to get summary as pivot , merging tables , subset the data . Find simple patterns was easy as data preparation took less time .
- All this boosted morale in MIS executives as the time consuming was less , error was less and they were using new tool .
- Excellent team collaboration was established .
5 . Approach :
As our team is gone through this tool and should be well aware of storytelling method and its benefits . More applications to be used with this tool as it is diverse and the team can be more collaborative . Communicating with sponsor or other stakeholders can be efficient and make them inspired by the solution . Hence preparing the mindset for design thinking tools are very much necessary and planning for the awareness sessions or workshops to be planned .

Challenge
Youth is exposed to sexual content via internet right in adolescence due to which their
notions about the concept of sex are twisted and they grow up to become adults who lack
actual scientific awareness of science of reproduction , laws related to reproduction and
reproductive health . WU- BTIC ( an NGO based in India ) wanted to start a campaign called
( Shhh’Ex Ed ) the motive of which was to spread awareness about these Scientific and Legal
aspects of sex and reproduction among college students .
The big challenge was that they were not sure if the course material and keynotes of the
seminars entirely covered all the necessary content and if it was relevant to the psyche or
needs of the audience they would address . Until they had actually been upfront with college
students they could never be sure if they should be including topics like ‘ Laws in favor of a
rape victim , how are laws of abortion different for those who are under 18 years of age ,
whether they need a doctor ’s prescription to buy a contraceptive pill ’ , etcetera . Another
challenge was that the Indian society stigmatizes talking about sex openly due to which the
team was not sure if colleges would really cooperate and allow them to conduct such a
seminar in their respective educational institute and they were also not sure about how
their prospective listeners ( college students ) would react when addressed by them .
Selection
The team chose to roll out a learning launch in the form of a webinar in order to test
whether the youth of India will take off the veil of shyness , break the chains of the stigmas
or not and the only way to be certain about the interest of youth towards this campaign was
by launching the campaign at a small level first . The prototype ( the keynotes on the
presentation ) was made crisp covering almost all the topics sought after , however the
sufficiency of the content still needed to be tested . The team ’s hypothesis or assumptions
about the webinar were that a minimum of 10 youngsters would join in and openly interact
with them , even if more joined they would be shy to ask questions from the panelists and
the session would last 2 hours roughly . The learning launch would also give them the
demographics of young Indians who were reactant to the initiative , they planned .
Application
The presentation was compiled to make it both logically and visually crisp keeping in mind it
will be down - streamed on digital devices like mobile phones , computer screens or tabs .
There was less text and more info - graphics making sure the prototype was factual ,
functional and engrossing . Social media posters announcing the webinar were uploaded on
social media ( Instagram and Facebook ) . WebEx ( an interactive video conferencing
application from Cisco ) was chosen as a medium to conduct the webinar because it has a
separate ‘ chat ’ tab , separate ‘ question - answer ’ tab , it also has both , its mobile application
and desktop application and can be accessed via simply signing - in to WebEx from Cisco ’s
website . Formal e - mails were sent to colleges and universities of India inviting them to the
webinar . 4 panelists who are Medical - Science students volunteered for delivering keynotes .
The day of the webinar was a Sunday and timings were 6:00 to 8:00 pm because both
working and studying youngsters are free on Sunday evenings . Most attendees joined latest
by 6:15 pm IST . All the participants were e - mailed a feedback form each .
Insight
The hypothesis of the team turned out to be positively different from what was marked .
30 participants joined the webinar which lasted 2.5 hours and they interacted via the ‘ Chat ’
section on the WebEx interface . Not only about Sex education , they asked questions in
regard to problems like Poly - cystic - ovarian - disease and endometriosis , showed their
concern on how sadly India lived with taboos related to the need of masturbation and
associated it to only male gender , how the laws of Rape favored only females . The insights
from feedback form were very helpful in the iteration of adding new modules like ‘ Male and
Female reproductive systems , maintaining sperm and egg quality and life . ’
Approach
The learning launch was an appropriate approach to test the viability and success of the
campaign as it not only gave insights on the sufficiency of modules and new modules to be
added but also granted the volunteers of the campaign a demographic of the youngsters or
institutes who were interested in the initiative and the concept . The learning launch lit the
green light for the campaign .

EASING TALENT ACQUISITION THROUGH DESIGN THINKING
Challenge & Selection :
I have come across many interesting business problems while doing an internship with a leading Design Thinking & Business Innovation Consulting Firm . But , this particular solution born out of design thinking has amazed the clients with the results ! The problem brought by our client was “ How can we ease the process of recruiting talent which would be beneficial for both the Hiring Manager and the candidate ? ”
After referring a few primary and secondary data , we studied that ‘ 80 % of entrepreneurs agree talent acquisition is crucial and 61 % of them experienced difficulties fetching talents . Globalization and privatization created more and more open roles for organizations to fill , yet finding a well - suited individual was a chore . ’ The problem was very thought - provoking and our team of designers jumped in with their design thinking hats on .
For deriving the solution we had to put ourselves in candidates and hiring managers shoes . The team chose ‘ storytelling ’ as the design tool and was scheduled to work on building empathy with the hiring manager , recruiter , and candidate to fulfill their needs . Importantly , the emotional experience of each individual was to be prioritized .
Application :
The first step to design any meaningful solution is to get to know your audience . In this case , the audience was the hiring manager , recruiter , and candidates , who have experienced an interview process . Specifically , we wanted to find out what they were saying , asking , thinking , feeling , and doing as the interview progresses . By letting them lead the conversation , we acquired the insights that we needed to focus on problem - solving . Once we collected a good number of user stories , we saw patterns in their responses and the next step was to synthesize the data .
We were back to our most favorite part ! Taking the problems and queries from the previous stage , we started envisioning as many solutions and ideas , as we could . This stage is pure brainstorming and all you have to do is to generate , generate , generate ideas !
Later , we chose the best solutions among all and prototyped it using a low fidelity one . We also tested the prototype , wherein we took a few people from our target audience and showed them our prototype . We listened to their views and thoughts and then the prototype was more customized and altered according to their needs and requirements .
At last , the team derived the perfect solution to the problem and came up with a mobile and desktop - friendly application that simplified the entrepreneur - candidate journey !
Characteristics of the application include : ( a ) User Friendly ( b ) Inbuilt pre - scheduled video calling service ( c ) Day to day duties of the open position listed systematically ( d ) Candidates can rate themselves according to the skillset required for the job role , listed by the Talent Acquisition Manager ( e ) Chatroom with AI - augmented chatbot which helps the candidate with their queries ( f ) Open positions list ( g ) Reference box , wherein candidates can refer their friends and family ( e ) Interview feedback for candidates .
Insight & Approach :
Through the storytelling tool of radically empathizing with candidates and talent acquisition manager , the team identified several areas the company wanted to focus on and improve , including how to simplify candidate ’s interview , set expectations about the designated job role , and celebrate the company ’s culture and branding through communication and the online experience . It also helped the candidate by solving their queries and has a very human - centered interface . The inclusion of this user - friendly application , not only brought ‘ best of the minds ’ to the company but also simplified the whole interview process for the end - user .
I believe that listening with empathy is the first step towards explaining these unexplained transformations . Stories generate questions and questions expand the breadth and depth of stories , leading to lots of innovative thoughts and ideas . While I highly recommend that one must acquire the skills to incorporate the storytelling tool into your problem - solving toolkit , I ca n’t stress enough that they should also invest the time to do it correctly . It takes efforts , but the results are surely yielding !
From my experience , the ‘ storytelling tool ’ of design thinking can be easily adapted to recruitment efforts by both recruiters and talent acquisition managers .

Challenge
We are currently faced with the challenge of shifting the way we do projects within our organization as we stand up a new digital strategy . Some background information : we are one of the country ’s largest energy producers and have been going through a transformation over the past 5 years . Since our current CEO took the helm , we have gone from a very favourable economic situation , working to streamline some of our value chains and identify opportunities for standardization , to one of the worst economic downturns in the past 20 years . Along with the downturn , our focus has shifted from production growth at any cost to a sustainability mindset . We realize that we can be part of the solution as the world has turned its attention to reducing GHG emissions , reducing our carbon footprint and becoming more aware of how the products we use daily are manufactured , distributed and disposed of .
As the technology leaders for the company , we have recently combined business process management with innovation and solution design to develop projects in a more responsible and planful manner . We have a project management methodology that has been adopted from our major projects group , with the mindset that we can apply the governance , rigour and oversight that has helped control capital and operating expenditures of our large scale developments to new technology projects . The challenge is really to shift how our group approaches design and development right from the beginning of a project , rather than fundamentally changing the activities of our experts – the what . The problem statement could be : How do we apply the principles of design thinking to our existing project management methodology while maintaining our standards of portfolio management ?
Selection
While exploring how we would shift to a more innovative business model we used visualization techniques . We frequently use the whiteboards in our boardrooms to share thoughts and ideas , and in the workshops we explored both current and future state models , including identifying various stakeholders . While we have pages of existing documents written to describe the processes and procedures of our current methodology , we all felt the need to see how to combine all of the activities , with the people involved and layer in other information such as budgeting , RASCI and key milestones .
Application
We began work shops with four senior level directors from different areas of the Information & Process Management function . As we discussed our current state and the challenges we were facing in delivering projects through the gated review process , I documented the discussion on the whiteboard , taking photos at the end of each work shop and then sending out a slide deck that included a written summary and the original photos . We met weekly for four weeks before deciding to include some “ disruptors ” in our discussions . We brought in management level employees to participate in the discussion . We sought out both those whose view point was aligned with our modus operandi , to create change in project delivery by streamlining the necessary artifacts and by establishing a different way of approaching technology opportunities , as well as those we knew would oppose , or challenge , the proposed changes .
As a result of sharing information visually we were able to arrive at a consensus more quickly and clearly than through discussion alone . We shared insights ; each director brought a different perspective to the conversation
and each participant was better able to share the lens through which they approach each project , based on their area of expertise and experience . This tool allowed us to shift the conversation from project deliverables or artifact driven activities , which may not add value or provide the information required to make a decision on the future of the project , to aligning ourselves to the desired outcomes we are seeking at each stage of the project .
Insight and Approach
Visualization is not a new tool to me , having spent the past 5 years facilitating workshops and instructing I find it ’s a very useful tool to have in my tool belt ! I ’m also a visual - kinesthetic learner so I appreciate visuals as a tool for communication . The insight I have gained through this activity is that not everyone uses visualization as a means of communicating an idea , especially in an area of the business that is driven by digitization and technology . This quote from Angela Meyer in her Week 1 video on Visualization Tool resonated with me :
It 's really , it 's really important to be able to understand the way that you communicate to people . The primary tools for , for thinking visually are really just mastering some basic elements of imagining people , spaces , situations and actions or movements . It 's very easy to create a simple diagram , and most anyone can draw a stick figure , an arrow , a circle , a square . Those are the basic building blocks of creating a visualization .
What I have learned is that my “ space to play ” within the tech world ( which is relatively new to me ) is the meeting point between humans and technology . As we develop the design thinking capability within our organization I will look to challenge my colleagues to use visualization and take it further than simple whiteboard graphs and collections of words . I look forward to developing this capability for myself and then further demonstrating visualization techniques as we explore the “ What is ” and “ What if ” questions of design thinking .

Visualization is not a new tool to me , having spent the past 5 years facilitating workshops and instructing I find it ’s a very useful tool to have in my tool belt ! I ’m also a visual - kinesthetic learner so I appreciate visuals as a tool for communication . The insight I have gained through this activity is that not everyone uses visualization as a means of communicating an idea , especially in an area of the business that is driven by digitization and technology . This quote from Angela Meyer in her Week 1 video on Visualization Tool resonated with me :
It 's really , it 's really important to be able to understand the way that you communicate to people . The primary tools for , for thinking visually are really just mastering some basic elements of imagining people , spaces , situations and actions or movements . It 's very easy to create a simple diagram , and most anyone can draw a stick figure , an arrow , a circle , a square . Those are the basic building blocks of creating a visualization .
What I have learned is that my “ space to play ” within the tech world ( which is relatively new to me ) is the meeting point between humans and technology . As we develop the design thinking capability within our organization I will look to challenge my colleagues to use visualization and take it further than simple whiteboard graphs and collections of words . I look forward to developing this capability for myself and then further demonstrating visualization techniques as we explore the “ What is ” and “ What if ” questions of design thinking .

Mind Mapping of CPG Categories
Challenge & Selection
I work in Marketing Insights at a large CPG manufacturer . In the course of my work , we began asking big , meaty , foundational questions around why consumers were really using our products and how we might better serve them today , as well as innovate for the future . In asking these types of questions , we began with the exact same framework as the Design Thinking questions ! Knowing that we would need help from consumers to answer our questions , we decided that we needed to create something like a mind map to better understand jobs to be done for our products and why consumers were using our product to satisfy those jobs . Then , we wanted to understand where those most relevant jobs were n’t satisfied currently and as our next step , design criteria and possible solutions to fulfill those consumer jobs .
Application
We started the process by identifying existing knowledge around the jobs that consumers are trying to get done with our products . We have multiple - market awareness and usage surveys that includes many attributes that we could leverage . In pulling together those attributes , we created a strawman mind map to arrange the attributes into functional , emotional and social jobs . We wanted to look at this strawman to see how well this captured the complete uses of our products . In very short order , our collective intuition was pinging . There were a great deal of functional jobs and even some emotional , but the social and even identity outcomes were missing . We had more work to do . We conducted primary qualitative research to find the additional jobs across multiple markets globally . We had 90 - minute in - depth dyadic interviews with consumers who were simply prompted to bring in 5- 7 images that represent how they think or feel about our product category . We then analyzed that data leveraging a proprietary algorithm to extract meaning , identify patterns and allow for insights to emerge around the existing jobs and any newly discovered jobs . Insight
We were amazed to start seeing the mind maps come together . We discovered another one - third of jobs that were previously unidentified and were along our hypotheses that there were more social and identity jobs missing . We were able to use the team ’s collective genius to ensure that the pathways between neurons ( i.e. jobs ) were accurate and were then able to overlay which jobs consumers said were currently satisfied vs. under - satisfied . Mind mapping allowed us to solidify our current offering , as well as identify whitespace opportunities .
Approach
After identifying these opportunities , we decided to gather additional primary data to size the opportunities . Next is to develop further design criteria based on our mid - term and long - term business goals , and to create possible solutions to fulfill the consumer opportunities we identified via Design Thinking and Mind Mapping !

Eating lunch alone due to a lack of friends can have serious effects on a person ’s well - being , and eventually on mental health . According to an article by Kira Asatryan that has appeared in Psychology Today , loneliness can cause mental health disorders such as depression and addiction . Such situations do not only occur in high schools , but can be observed at universities across the globe as well . While attending a U.S. college for a semester during my undergraduate degree , I started to realize that there are several students eating lunch alone , not because they choose to , but because they lack social connections on campus . This was a situation I wanted to change . To do so , I wanted to permanently reserve a table in the college ’s dining hall , where I would place small cards with topics that foster conversation among the people sitting there . By decorating the table in a special way ( e.g. by using a yellow tablecloth ) , and establishing a poster explaining the cause and the idea , the table should become well known across the whole campus , foster sharing a table with unfamiliar people , and ultimately facilitate making new friends . My plans called for the support of the college ’s administration since a table would need to be assigned to the cause permanently . However , the challenge I faced was the transmission of the underlying problem to people that probably never thought of it and/or never experienced the problem of loneliness in the dining hall themselves . Selection To get the permanent table in the dining hall , and to get the support of the college ’s administration , I managed to get an audience at the president ’s office . While preparing my pitch , I became to realize that maybe not everybody was aware of the problem of having to eat meals alone , and the mental health disorders that could be caused by it . To minimize the chances of somebody in the room not understanding the underlying problem , I decided to use the storytelling tool . Storytelling refers to a methodology used to connect people to a message , ignites , and unites people . A story should have a logic , an emotional connection , and a larger purpose . The main purpose of storytelling is to inspire people , and help deliver data , hard facts , and recommendations in an extraordinary way . By telling a story , the audience should be convinced that the problem is bigger than any challenge out there , and make them want to invest in solving the problem . Application I rewrote my pitch and created a story that would emotionally affect people . By doing so , I hoped to facilitate getting the necessary support of the college ’s president and other key persons . I started by creating a fictional character based on the students I talked to that usually eat lunch alone . To support my pitch , I took several pictures of the dining hall and students sitting alone at tables ( with their permission of course ) . The pitch I wrote was based on Muhammad , a freshman that has experienced loneliness also during high school , and now has some difficulties making friends at college . Due to the circumstances , Muhammad eats lunch alone , listening to music most of the time . However , he is not happy with the current situation , but struggles to just sit with people he does n’t know . One day , Muhammad enters the dining hall again ,
expecting to eat lunch alone again . However , this time , he discovers a special table with a yellow tablecloth in the middle of the dining hall , with several people sitting there and having a decent conversation about a topic that is written on one of the cards on the table . The poster next to the table states that everybody is welcome to join the group . Muhammad decides to try it out and sit at the table . During lunch , he gets to know the other people , and just before he leaves the table , he gets invited to play some soccer after class . Ultimately , Muhammad has finally been able to make friends , and now enjoys eating his meals at the special table to ensure everybody has the possibility to experience the same positive effects that he has . The story convinced the college ’s administration , and I got the permission to establish the table in the dining hall . Moreover , the president offered to mention the table in her weekly email to all students . The people in the room praised the pitch , which is why I believe the storytelling approach was effective . Insight The storytelling tool is an effective methodology to transmit a message to an audience that may not be familiar with the underlying problem . I believe that this methodology is especially useful for pitching ventures to potential investors , decision makers , and influencers . However , the tool can also be used for any kind of presentation since it provides a useful structure , facilitates transmitting messages , and fosters understanding among the audience . However , it is important to know the audience beforehand in order to create a story that resonates with the majority , or ideally with everybody . Storytelling helps connecting to the emotions and past experiences of people , no matter if they are front - line workers or the top management of companies or institutions . More broadly , I believe that design thinking is an essential skill every entrepreneur should have . This is not limited to storytelling but the whole design thinking framework . Design thinking helps structuring an approach in an uncertain environment , and be comfortable with it . Also , design thinking does not dictate what kind of tools need to be used but offers a variety of different approaches a person can choose from . My experience with storytelling and design thinking has been very positive so far , and I plan on using the different tools on a regular basis in the future . Approach The situation called for an emotional connection to the audience , in this particular case the college ’s administration . Therefore , I am sure that the storytelling approach was the right design tool to use . Storytelling helped me to appeal to the emotions of the audience , and explain a problem in a simple and compelling way . The emotional connection was crucial to get the support of the college ’s administration , as this idea does not yet offer a direct return on investment . However , the special table positively influences the college experience for many students . If I ever face a similar situation , I would choose the storytelling tool again . Visualization is an alternative approach I could have used . Pictures and illustrations help an audience understand the pitch better since it combines verbal explanations and visual impressions . However , I believe storytelling and visualization can be combined , which is what I essentially did since I used pictures of people eating alone .

Challenge & Selection
I lead End to End Software testing for large projects for one the major banks . Like any team across software
development and testing industry , my team is constantly challenged with handling larger testing work scope
with limited team size , late change requests and lots of overheads when project is not running as per plan ( late
software build delivery , infrastructure setup delays etc . )
Having gone through this course , I decided to come up with some innovation discussion with team that would
help our customers , projects stakeholders and my team as well . We wanted to innovate something apart from
our normal KPI s of automation functional testing in applications we are involved in .
We decided Visualization as tool to come up with innovation where the project is not going through the plan
( overall status as Red and Amber ) . The objective was to do something better that will help customers , project
stakeholders and improve productivity within the team especially during the tough times .
Insight & Approach ( What Is )
As a starting point we picked all the lessons learnt documentation where the team faced quite number of
challenges in completing the milestone within last one year . Rather than looking at specific incidents
pinpointing to certain flaws , the next objective was understanding common trends common unidentified pain
areas can be nailed down especially during the tight patch of critical delivery timelines .
A series of calls were scheduled with project stakeholders . The team divided into groups consisting of 2 - 3
members was given task to come up pain areas within themselves and project community .
After series on call , floating several sticky notes , few critical observations were made after series of calls
1 . The frequency of adhoc communication ( emails & Teleconferencing ) with project stakeholders
increased drastically as the project deviated further from the original plan . The majority of communication was involving asking similar same set of status metrics – how much we have completed , how many more to complete , key blockers and their action owners etc .
2 . Triggering the automaton regression testing and sharing the respective result involved someone
to be at desk . By regression testing , I mean testing existing functionality just to ensure developer has not broken something else while fixing a specific bug . This activity is required to iterated large number of times at different inconvenient time zones especially for projects where large number of bugs or critical bugs are discovered .
3 . Many Business Analysts and Designers while reviewing specific testing details needs to logon
to Defect ( code bug ) management tool manually or need to dig up lots of emails if they needs to find specific result of bug ,
Insight & Approach - Continued ( What If & What Wows )
The team has as such good experience of skills on automation of testing functionalities on software applications they were working on . While learning through the pain areas , the idea emerged to automate the communication areas so that
1 . They are less involved in adhoc communication and focus more on pain areas 2 . The stakeholders gets the details instantly rather being dependent on the team 3 . The productivity of team will be less impacted when Senior Management is looking for adhoc
details .
The team then thought of building the framework where they could automate
1 . Providing details of progress ( right from High Level to Micro Level ) 2 . Trigger automation testing by development team 3 . Provide adhoc specific details of testing .
After series to several brainstorming sessions , the approach was taken to use “ email ” as source of automation . This idea was picked to ensure
1 . Automating this task should not involve any human interaction apart from triggering email 2 . Stakeholders of various kinds ( technical / non - technical ) could use this framework rather than
thinking of training on any automation tool
An example of what above means is , whenever required to run regression testing after bug fix , any person within project just needs to do is send email to testing team and he / she should get response back with details . The received email on any of the testing team desktop should trigger automation work in required work . The technical feasibility was studied and checked carefully across other teams and we also got a framework to build what we were thinking of .
Prototype ( What Wows )
Rather than jumping directly making ‘ cool stuff ’ we decided to test our idea with Business Project Manager , Designer and Development Lead . We initially gave a walk through about the framework we want to build and its advantages .
Later they were asked trigger email with certain keywords in the subject to one of my team member who had a sample response already prepared and responded with 2 minutes delay . The overall approach really worked out well with feedback of what details they were seeking in automated way and review system .
As a team we got a brilliant feedback to come up with this initiative and approach . One of the few compliments from Senior Management came up for the team as “ This team is one of the most pro - active and highly committed team seeking continuous improvement “ .
My team has completed built of first frame work now which is covering regression testing and final stage of internal testing before rolling out to project .
Conclusion
On several projects of various kinds , human pain areas may mostly not get documented . It is only the
systematic implementation of Design Thinking Methodology can improve business substantially or
even bring in disruptive innovation that remains key challenge for large organizations .

Challenge
I am part of my organization ’s capability development team my / our challenge is to improve
Offtake of learning in general and compliance related training in particular within the organisation in order to decrease the compliance related complains and issues . The project scope includes employees of all the businesses i. E Technology , Operations and Support businesses . The project is limited to internal resources ( i.e. , budget and employee time ) . The project should not exceed 90 business days and the solution should include a gamified solution to deliver ethics and compliance training . We will focus on trying to uncover what our team members , as well as key stakeholders within the larger teams , consider to be challenge regarding the implementation of Respect for Individuals ..
Selection
Our team has already gone through several design thinking activities / tools , so we are ready to try the
learning launch tool . Broadly speaking , the learning launch is an experiment meant to quickly test an
idea and prototype .
Application
For our first learning launch , we focused on the structure of the gamified training . In
particular , we wanted to see if we could structure our tasks , projects , and processes to adapt the
methods of Scrum project management for our work ( e.g. , time boxed , daily , specific meetings , reviews ,
etc . ) in an effort to become more agile . This tested our assumption that the structure and execution
were the main causes of our workflow challenge . Our team went through a two - day training with a
Scrum project management coach . Next , we went through 2 workshops to structure our tasks and
processes in a more agile way . These two sessions occurred within in a three - week timeframe . We
expected to produce a document with a clear description of our new , more agile processes / workflow .
For our second learning launch , we focused on gaining clarity about our tasks and priorities . This tested
our assumption that our prioritization of tasks was the main cause of our workflow challenge . Our team
completed an focus group discussion with key stake holders . The discussion included questions
about our new , proposed learning , understanding the process and the prioritization of tasks , and feelings about the change in approach , and were conducted within a one - week timeframe .
Insight
By applying the learning launch tool , our team identified our assumptions and designed pilot launches to test these assumptions . Additionally , we thought through anticipated results , expecting to find that a more agile approach would improve our workflow , and that both our team and the key stakeholders would be fairly open to the new prioritization of tasks and process . Our actual results were slightly different from what we anticipated : while our team was open to the prioritization of tasks and process , the key stakeholders in the Employee relations team and IT department expressed some concerns .
Moving forward , our team will review this insight and incorporate it into future launch designs . The ongoing incorporation of feedback is particularly important at this stage , as launches come before a full rollout in the design thinking timeline .
Approach
Given that our team has already gone through several design thinking activities / tools and are at this
stage in the timeline , the gamification training launch is the appropriate tool . As previously mentioned , our team needs to review the insight gained from our first two launches and incorporate this insight into future launch . Future launch designs should reflect insight gained , progress made , and come closer to a
compelling solution ready for full rollout

When developing new software projects that need to tackle a set of wicket problems , we simply ca n’t just ask the customers what they are looking for or to enumerate their needs . The different stakeholders might have their own thoughts on how the new system might work , and also different priorities depending on their roles . It ’s also not uncommon the fear for change , and the reluctancy of accepting new systems or processes that are going to alter their working routines . It during this discovery phase , where we need to try to ground requirements to a starting point and try to use the right tools to discover their needs , and mostly to dimension the product since they are expecting a quote after all .
A tool that has proven to be most effective for us , is a visualization tool called Wireframes . After gathering some basic information on the project goals and researching similar solutions we are ready to explore different possibilities the product could take . Instead of the sequential flow of writing requirements down as a bullet list , we present them some basic shapes with the required information . Wireframes are sketches of some of the screens of the desired software drawn in very basic shapes , like squares for buttons and scribbles for text , that show what information and interactions the software would display on some basic screens .
Application
These wireframes are printed and then used as a starting point on a co - creation meeting where we focus on listening their thoughts and incentivize them on using their pens to take notes and write over the wireframes . This stage is very helpful for us since they can lead the conversation once they have something to start with . It is very important that the wireframes do n’t include much detail or colors , so they can focus on the information and not get distracted by design or layout issues . Leaving empty spaces and not making screens complete also leaves some open questions so they propose unthought things and also gain ownership on the product they will use .
Insight and Approach
Recently we used this technique for a government area that needed to manage their contacts and agenda like a CRM . We based some of the wireframes on commercial CRM solutions , but after a set of meetings we discovered their focus was different . Most of the stakeholders wanted to easily get reports on events and contacts and their focus was towards events and tasks rather than leads which is the case of enterprise CRM . I think not only the technique helped a lot on getting this type of insights , but the fact of including many of the stakeholders on the meetings made the experience richer and broader . In the future we ’ll try involving more roles to the meetings and taking color markers with us so that anyone can write over the wireframes instead of having one lead the conversation .

I work for a traditional financial organization with the department of innovation . In the last few years , there was a new line of digital financial tools offered to our clients . The main purpose to develop those tools was to decrease manpower and increase each user 's productivity . After a significant period of time , we noticed that the growth of the usage in the online tools is not as anticipated . Our department was in charge of user 's behavior evaluation and to develop new strategies to increase their online activity and tools adoption .
Selection
To evaluate the usage of the online tools , we have been using a simulation lab . In order to understand each user 's behavior , we have gathered some clients and observed their behavior under real - life conditions . The lab environment was able to answer some of the " what " questions but failed to answer the more important " why " questions . The " what " questions are the general usage statistics and the " why " questions are questions regarding the reasons for each parameter value . To answer the " why " questions we began interviewing the participants in the lab test and hear their side of the story . This way we gather more user 's feedback . Using the lab and the interviews , enabled us to understand that the reasons for slow adoption of the online tools , related directly to the customer 's lack of confidence in the new tools , fear of not being able to use the tools properly and from making a mistake that might cost them money .
Each customer told us a different story about his fears from new technologies and from adopting new financial behavior and using online activities by themselves . We strongly believed that the right course of action was to neutralize the fear of technology by telling the right story to the users , so the storytelling tool is the natural selection for this case .
Application
In order to increase usage statistics , we felt that it was better to educate the users instead of improving the current tools and make a slow and a gradual change in user ’s behavior by providing support each step of the way . The education process was both offline and online training . The frontal clerk was be replaced by technical support and a Chatbots . In addition , we have embedded inside the tools some tutorial videos , online virtual assistant , FAQ information , and user 's feedback forms for more user 's interaction .
Insights
After implementing the new strategy , it took a while but an increase in online activity finally came . After analyzing the user 's feedback , from the users , we came to realize that the selected strategy was indeed a success .
By successfully reducing the initial hesitation and urging new reluctant users to make an attempt to use the variety of tools offered to them . Almost immediately the users came to understand how easy and intuitive it is to use the tools and then gladly adopted the new tools . The storytelling tool has been most useful in reducing fears and motivating to embrace new positive thinking .
Approach
During our work , we have noticed that even that our main goal has been achieved , and the overall usage of the digital tools have been increased , we think that it might be more helpful if we segmented the user 's more precisely , for example , by age group , occupation , level of education etc .
To do so I think it would be best to use the mind mapping tool to define the different segments , and how to approach them . I believe that this approach can make a better impact on user behavior and make an even greater usage increase .

TOOLS Mind Mapping CHALLENGE My challenge was to explain to the organization where I work the impacts of carrying out a new business related to the acceptance of a new debit / credit card at the point of sales terminals , which would allow customers make their purchases with their cards in the shops . Was a challenge for me because I have a mix role in the organization between the business and technical area , and I had to do it in a simply language without some technicism . From the technical point of view , explaining something like this has a degree of complexity in an Electronic Payment Network . Previously , with other projects , I used tools such as Power Point presentations , without any success as I expected , since I did not get the participants to understand the impacts or unify the understanding on the same topic , each one had a different idea . The important thing about this challenge , especially with this new business , was to use a tool that would allow everyone to understand the same and generate decision making about some points that should be defined . SELECTION I selected the Mind Mapping Tool , since it allowed me to develop from the main idea of the new business and show the important points , like a large tree with its branches , where the main idea occupies the trunk of the tree and the important points occupy the branches . The Mind Mapping Tool was selected by me , because in a single slide I could explain the whole concept , through the use of images it offered the possibility that the organization could visually understand the concept that was being explained with this new business . I was researching about Mind Mapping and I was drawn to the fact that it was described as an effective tool to extract and memorize information that allows organizing , associating and expressing ideas , which was just what I was looking for my presentation . APPLICATION Once I was sure that this was the right tool , which I had to try to know its acceptance , I set out to list the keywords that described the new business and create the Mind Mapping manually in Power Point . Then , I placed key images , colors , fonts , sizes , lines , which shaped the Mind Mapping , summarizing each of the important aspects . It even allowed me to detect missing key points , identify the points where it would be necessary to make a decision . INSIGHT Through the use of Mind Mapping I could realize the power of the visual , because if I had prepared a presentation with explanations and some flows , as a traditional way , I might not have had as much acceptance as I had with the Mind Mapping .
I felt that my challenge had been met . I managed to capture the attention , the understanding on the part of the organization through a general and visual view of what this new business entailed . The attitude of those present at the meeting was also good , everyone understood and I received positive criticism of the tool used . Some felt very overwhelmed knowing really how much work has to be done for this new business , as it was thought to be a simple project . APPROACH Currently , I continue to use Mind Mapping whenever it is necessary to develop an idea that involves many points , since I validated that it works in the organization where I work . Mind Mapping are a creative way to describe something , promote knowledge , generate good attitude in my case and new skills arise . Depending on the type of information I want to transmit , I can opt for other tools such as visualization or storytelling , since I recognize that each tool has its own particular use .

INSIGHT Through the use of Mind Mapping I could realize the power of the visual , because if I had prepared a presentation with explanations and some flows , as a traditional way , I might not have had as much acceptance as I had with the Mind Mapping .
I felt that my challenge had been met . I managed to capture the attention , the understanding on the part of the organization through a general and visual view of what this new business entailed . The attitude of those present at the meeting was also good , everyone understood and I received positive criticism of the tool used . Some felt very overwhelmed knowing really how much work has to be done for this new business , as it was thought to be a simple project . APPROACH Currently , I continue to use Mind Mapping whenever it is necessary to develop an idea that involves many points , since I validated that it works in the organization where I work . Mind Mapping are a creative way to describe something , promote knowledge , generate good attitude in my case and new skills arise . Depending on the type of information I want to transmit , I can opt for other tools such as visualization or storytelling , since I recognize that each tool has its own particular use .

Challenge and Selection
A friend of mine who is a businessman asked me for help to start the process of creating a business idea : He wants to open a physiotherapy center . His hypothesis is that it will stand out from the rest of physiotherapy centers of Lima - Perú due to its technological aspect . He wants it to be full equipped with the highest technology and with equipments that other physiotherapy centers do n’t have . His hypothesis is not based on data , there are no research on this type of business in the city . He has mapped the competition ( that means , he called to ask which services they offer and the prices ) , looked for technological devices on the internet that he thinks are not used in Lima , and brainstormed to imagine his business . He also has n’t done research to know the clients ´ point of view .
This is the “ What is ? ” stage of his project . I want to help him to outline , expand or change the definition of the opportunity he sees , starting by getting to know the customers ’ reality from their perspective , what they value the most and what needs are n’t covered . The tool I ’ve chosen is Visualization through drawing their customers ’ experience as in a collage . I made sure that this tool works well for this stage by listening to the video of Visualization of week 1 . The speaker says that “ sketching can be a very important way of capturing that kind of information " . By “ information ” she means : “ not just people themselves , but the context in which they live " . In addition , in the “ What is ? ” stage of the MeYouHealth case , they used collages of images that symbolize the perception of potential users of well - being and their five - year projection of themselves .
Application
I met with four people at different times and I gave them this task : “ Reflect your current experience as customer of the physiotherapy center you assist by drawing it . Draw yourself going through that experience and all the stages you remember . Imagine the people , spaces , the therapy itself , equipment , price , quality of the service , your feelings and anything else you remember . After this step , choose a color and draw the aspects you do n’t like and proposals to improve your experience . Finally , choose another color to identify what you like about your current experience . There are no ugly or beautiful drawings , neither bad nor good answers , this is not an evaluation . Be as creative as you want ! If you have questions , you can ask me at any time . ” . Before I started , I asked them their names , ages , occupations and the name of the center where they assist . I gave each one a cardboard , markers of different colors , colored pencils , colored glitter and pencils . There was an accident with the colored glitter , it was dry . I kept it long time stored and it got dry , so the first participant could n’t use it . I took it away immediately and apologized myself for that incident . When they finished , I asked them to explain their drawing to me . During the dialogue there were some new aspects that they remembered and had not included . I wrote down all the explanations on my computer while they told me their experiences and went deeper with questions like : What exactly did you like about the massage ? And did some indirect questions to know if they value the technology used in the centers like : What do you think of the equipment they use ? Describe it please . Did it help you ?
Insight
My friends hypotesis got a broader view . All of the participants mentioned that the aspect they value the most is the quality of the massage , not depending on the technological devices , but on the therapist ’s skills and profile . They want a therapist who is : kind , skillfull , experienced ,
quiet ( that means he / she is not in a hurry to finish and transmits a peacefull feeling ) and has an enterprise culture . They said that in some cases , a less experienced therapist gave them a massage and it was obvious that he / she had more to learn . One of the participants told me that once an intern gave her a massage and told her that she had an irreversible disease ( which was n’t true ) and she got worried . So in this first finding , my friend ’s hypotesis does n’t match the needs . However there were other points to observe . Every center has a main doctor who is the expert and the rest of the staff seems less experienced . The participants value a lot when the main doctor treats them , because he / she gives them a better massage and a detailed explanaition of their case . This highlights another need to be covered : information . Besides the doctor ’s explanaition , they did n’t mention elements that provide information about health problems , their health status ( none of them have patients health histories ) and most of them complained about not having a modern system that helpes them to book an appoinment ( in two centers they ca n’t even call , the booking has to be on - site ) . This is an opportunity for my friend to use technology to stand out from the competition .
The third most important aspect is the environment . All of them mentioned that all of the centers had a bit dirty environments , with old furniture , some of them had old exercise machines , not so comfortable stretchers and the centers were located in non - commercial areas , but in households addapted to give the service . This is an aspect to improve and also an opportunity for my friend . One of the participants said that he liked a place where many patients had to sit around the same table while they got therapy through electricity . This was nice because the equipment was new to him ( he had received electricity therapy with other equipment before ) and also because he got to know other people , share problems , sollutions and socialize . This goes combined with the need for information . And finally , it is very important for them that the center is located not so far from their homes . Two of them had to travel by bus one hour to get to the physiotherapy centers and in terms of cost / benefit they ended losing a lot of time and energy . My friend told me he had ideas to bring the service to peoples homes , and to give them online service .
Approach
The first learning was that before starting any activity , I must check if the resources I will use function correctly . This is because of the accident with the colored glitter . The second learning is that some of the participants used the storyboard format to draw their experiences . This was very useful to go more in detail and deeper in getting to know their reality , so I will suggest it the next time I use this tool . Another finding is that the older ones did n’t use the colored markers and pencils as the first resource to draw ( and even during the process they did n’t use more tan two colors ) . They prefered to start using a pencil . They said : “ I prefer to start with the pencil to be able to erase ” and “ The right way to start drawing is with a pencil ” . For me , his shows the results of their generation ’s education , which teach them to avoid mistakes and not to risk from start , not even a bit . Coincidentally they used the same colors to show the things they like ( green ) and dislike ( red ) ( look at the pictures attached ) . Next time I will give them different motivations such as images , to encourage them to get out of the traditional way to draw “ correctly ” and explore their creativity .
Finally , I got valuable learnings and comments about the success of the tool for my goal . One of the participants is a marketing university teacher . He recognized the benefits of this tool to do a deeper research of customers ’ experience tan with traditional research tolos ( he uses themin his lectures ) . Also , this tool was very useful to collect information about the different profiles , because each participant used his / her profesional knowledges to plasm their experience : One
of the participants is a graphic designer and she used color codes to show her experience . The teacher explained with a formula why non - monetary costs have often a higher value for the customers than monetary costs and this lead to sumarize one of the principal findings .

Challenge I help coordinate and manage a group of 80 nonprofits across the U.S. that support their local communities by redistributing donated goods to other smaller nonprofits . My organization is the national organization and the 80 nonprofits , called , are our affiliate members . Each member has vastly a different mission and operating style : some are food banks , some are churches , some are United Ways , and some are shelters . But they all have crucial experience and wisdom to share with the others . As the parent organization , our goal to help our 80 unique feel like a unified community and help each other problem solve remotely . Communication and maintaining a community feel across 31 states is our biggest barriers to success . When we host our annual conference in the spring , we see collaboration and innovation happening naturally , but it is quickly lost when the event ends . Our goal is to create a sense of community and ease of communication that will last all year , so we invested in a popular intranet platform that would require extensive customization . We were starting with a blank state and open - ended possibilities of what features to build in for our partners . Due to pressure to get started from above , we did not take a design thinking approach from the start . We made basic assumptions of what features and designs would best solve our communication challenge and we got to work . As we started to build features , I grew worried about low levels of adoption from our 80 partners due to a lack of customer insight on the front end . Selection We reached a point with our intranet where we could pause work in order to test our partner ’s reaction to the product . We were still at a phase in development where we could change directions and plans based on feedback if needed without significant financial loss . We had already completed beta testing on our basic features , which included an interactive map , a help ticket system , a suggestions box , discussion forums , announcements page , and a dashboard of historical knowledge . Our hypothesis was that we had created an intuitive platform for collaboration and that the features would specifically address previous barriers to communication . We needed to know , before going any further , that our customers would find value in the solutions . We decided to conduct a learning launch to test our previous assumptions about what features our partners would find most useful . A learning launch is a design thinking tool to do just that ; to test your hypothesis of how a user will interact with a product or how your project or program will successfully function in the real world . Application We set up a learning launch in which 6 of our 80 partners from different states , missions , backgrounds , and levels of experience with technology would be able to “ test drive ” the platform . This was not a beta test , because we had already worked out the bugs . More so , we wanted to test how our users would intuitively interact with the product and whether the features matched their collaboration and communication needs . We did not want to sway or bias our
participants with our own enthusiasm for what we had created , so we chose not to have a face to face video meeting in which we would explain the instructions . Instead , we created a brief that explained what the platform was , our goals for creating it , and where we were in the process . We emphasized that we were looking for all ideas and feedback and that this process would be iterative . We created a video that introduced how each feature worked as an orientation to the site . To capture feedback , we created a survey for each feature with picture for orientation and a couple key questions as well as open ended responses . Then we let our users into the platform to explore and interact . We gave our testers five days to explore and record their reactions and reflections via survey . Then we analyzed survey data by organizing anecdotal feedback and looking for patterns in their responses . Insight While we did receive confirming data about our overall goals , we also received crucial feedback about confusion with some of the features as well as ways to add to features that we had not thought of . We were able to meet with developers and quickly change our approach . We also learned an important lesson for adoption : two out of the six testers did not follow the instructions . That tells us that we should expect about 20 - 30 % of users will not fully read or understand our launch or onboarding instructions . We have since edited our full launch plan to include multi - media methods to explain instructions . The silver lining is that , although the two testers did not follow the proper instructions , we could tell that they still used the platform as it was intended . This proved our ultimate goal that , while users may not thoroughly read instructions , the platform itself is user - friendly enough not to require extensive instructions in the first place . Approach While the learning launch was the best tool to use in at this specific stage for our challenge , in retrospect we should have incorporated design thinking tools to our original challenge . We should have incorporated our intended users in the process of defining the problem we were trying to solve before we started working with developers . If we had started with the mind- mapping tool to help communicate on the same level and then incorporated visualization to achieve our first prototype , we may have been able to launch a product without as many “ pivots ” . Still , it was a valuable lesson to see that even if you do not start a project with design thinking tools , you can still pause and use them to back track and test assumptions before it is too late .

Nevertheless it is and organization that is always challenging and encouraging their people to innovate , to change things , to do our business in a different way , this is why this course was so important for me , to count with different tools that will allow me to approach innovation successfully .
Selection : In this opportunity I have chosen the visualization tool , this tool is somewhat new for me considering that in my organization we are more used to read a lot of reports , blogs , etc . or to constantly do different meetings to approach different subjects . Therefore , I found the visualization tool interesting as simple process that we all as kids use to understand different things . Putting graphically what you are thinking will allow you to use a different parts of your brain and will challenge you to put your thoughts in to paper as a drawing , sketching , diagraming , pictures , etc . to transmit your idea and letting people to understand your idea in a simpler way , being in the same page with your audience .
Application : I haven´t used this tool so much , but thinking of an example it came to my mind when I was in a meeting and we were discussing a subject with the counterpart and at some point it seemed that everyone in the meeting was in a different page and was understanding the problem in a different way , so I brought in a board and started to explain what the problem looked in my mind , writing down different numbers and relevant information , and starting from there the conversation took another course , where we all were understanding and discussing the same thing .
Insight : As I said , I did n’t use this tool so much but reflecting on that example I provided and adding the information and knowledge gained in this course , I clearly see the advantages of using this tool more often , and how since it is something we rarely do in my organization can be a game changing strategy to approach innovation with better results .
Approach : What I would do different next time is to be prepared , because in my example it was something improvised , something that happened in the moment , so I think that if I´m prepared for a different type of meeting applying this tool and planning it ahead it can be really successful .

### Input: Challenge : I belong to large and complex organization , so sometimes it is difficult to innovate , to make changes , to propose new things that will be accepted . Nevertheless it is and organization that is always challenging and encouraging their people to innovate , to change things , to do our business in a different way , this is why this course was so important for me , to count with different tools that will allow me to approach innovation successfully .
Selection : In this opportunity I have chosen the visualization tool , this tool is somewhat new for me considering that in my organization we are more used to read a lot of reports , blogs , etc . or to constantly do different meetings to approach different subjects . Therefore , I found the visualization tool interesting as simple process that we all as kids use to understand different things . Putting graphically what you are thinking will allow you to use a different parts of your brain and will challenge you to put your thoughts in to paper as a drawing , sketching , diagraming , pictures , etc . to transmit your idea and letting people to understand your idea in a simpler way , being in the same page with your audience .
Application : I haven´t used this tool so much , but thinking of an example it came to my mind when I was in a meeting and we were discussing a subject with the counterpart and at some point it seemed that everyone in the meeting was in a different page and was understanding the problem in a different way , so I brought in a board and started to explain what the problem looked in my mind , writing down different numbers and relevant information , and starting from there the conversation took another course , where we all were understanding and discussing the same thing .
Insight : As I said , I did n’t use this tool so much but reflecting on that example I provided and adding the information and knowledge gained in this course , I clearly see the advantages of using this tool more often , and how since it is something we rarely do in my organization can be a game changing strategy to approach innovation with better results .
Approach : What I would do different next time is to be prepared , because in my example it was something improvised , something that happened in the moment , so I think that if I´m prepared for a different type of meeting applying this tool and planning it ahead it can be really successful .

The curiosity about an ambient computing future where our TV ’s , appliances , watches , phones and more could talk to us to create new experiences gave way to developers to come up with the idea of Virtual Assistants . Virtual Assistants are capable of offering new ways to help its users get things done in a more efficient , personalised and natural way . The Problem : ‘Non existent Open Source Cross Platform AI Personal Assistants ’ The big unspoken problem emerging with existing Virtual Assistants is that , these Artificial Intelligences are largely an entirely separate system with virtually no sharing of common information or consistency of experience . ’ AI virtual assistants are supposed to adapt and empathise to the system of humans not the other way around ’ . We humans prefer everything simple and convenient . For instance you could control Amazon echo devices and other smart devices using voice control on the Alexa ’s iOS app on Apple devices , but it does not mean that you could use Alexa as Siri ’s replacement on an iPhone or an iPad . You could set Alexa as the default personal assistant on Android phones , but Alexa ’s functionality is still pretty limited ; it can not do many native tasks on the device . What if you wanted Google Assistant in place of Microsoft ’s Cortana , there is no downloadable app for that , although you could emulate it by downloading it as a software development kit and the Android tools it requires . It works on Command Line Interface hence we can not expect an Android like Google Assistant experience on Windows , Mac OS or Linux . Solution : A single unified user interface should be implemented to manage and control devices from a hub instead of using Multiple UI ’s of different forms since some devices do not even have screens or an on device user interface . Modern day Virtual Assistants need to integrate the capabilities between devices as a cross platform AI virtual assistant into an intuitive ecosystem , by offering seamless connectivity across devices to help users accomplish more with greater ease . Most of us use multiple mobile and smart devices in our everyday lives , building an ecosystem would significantly simplify your daily life through a Virtual Assistant .
Moving your Music with a Tap : There are a few things more irritating than needing to hit that pause button in the middle of a song . A continuity feature in Virtual Assistants would let you enjoy your favorite music or podcast without interruptions . Without an Ecosystem you 'd arrive home from work or college , pause your music , take off your headphones , connect your mobile to your speakers then play music . With a Virtual Assistant Ecosystem you ’d arrive home click on the continuity notification and select a device , the music app launches on your Tv or Speaker and automatically plays music Call and Message Continuity Without an Ecosystem your phone would be ringing , you ’d have to get up from your couch , search the living room , the bedroom , the kitchen and finally when you find your phone the caller hangs up With an Ecosystem your phone rings , you could answer the call on your couch with a smart speaker . Virtual assistants need to transform into an open scalable intelligence platform that empowers users to interact with a wide variety of devices to get things done . Apart from being Cross - Platform the most important virtue of a Virtual Assistant is the ability to comprehend and contextualize and understand what the user is trying to communicate and reply accurately and appropriately . In short virtual assistants need to be Emotionally intelligent . The User Experience design needs to be oriented towards Human - like Conversational flow that keeps context in mind and understands accents and consistency of tone . Modern Virtual Assistants should be working on perfecting the delicate balance between technology that feels exciting and futuristic , and that feels human and familiar .

Challenge
Currently I work for a bank as a strategist ; being a strategist is not that easy . We have to involve in the formulation , implementation and evaluation of strategy . The great strategist must have great analytical skill , presentation skill and also storytelling skill . Since my previous job was related on execution which means that my implementation skill is great , however ; analytical skill , presentation skill , storytelling skill need to improve . In order to improve these skills I have to take a lot of time practicing both on the job and in life . Let me tell you about my situation at my job , my task is to analyze data and interpret those data in to essential information for executive to make decision . Since there are so many executives group , so I have to tell the same to topic in different style to different groups of executives .
Selection
From the challenge I mentioned above links me to the tool that I would like to learn more which storytelling is . Storytelling is about the connection that we give about a piece of information that we tell . Great strategist has capability to tell the story that connects to the emotions , the characters , and the value of the audience . The better story we tell , more possibility we might get the better result . I love the way that instructor told about the storytelling that storytelling is the difference between solving a problem and creating a cause . It has emotional connection . If I have an ability to tell a good story which is conveying a message with logic , I think I wo n’t have any obstacles to strengthen my career achievement .
Application
I have applied storytelling tool to my job , since I have to propose the project to different group of executives , I have to prepare the story to suit each of them separately . First , I started with understanding my audience ; different group of executives . I tried to understand their objectives , their needs . Then I tried to link their needs with my content and sequence the storyline . This approach leads to reduce suspense or unanswered questions . I can connect with their emotion , ignite the idea , and make them understand of my content easily with the logical sequence of storytelling .
Insight
The key I got from applying storytelling tool is that understanding the audience . It ’s the crucial part to know before proposing idea or project to the executive for approval . After I understand their needs I can get through their mind with proper story . This will shape my thinking about propose the project to different group of the audience . It needs to be customized in a well - organized storyline with the logic behind . Storytelling is an efficient tool to win over the audience mind . Once I have learnt this it will change my way of thinking forever .
Approach
For my next project which is about proposing new products and services with customer , I will apply storytelling tool to them too . Besides understanding them , I need to understand their needs , their pain point and also their benefits for using our products and services and find the way to propose them with the story that links to their needs , their value proposition and connect to them with the great delivery tool as storytelling .

The project scope includes 15 employees , as well as the marketing department and IT department , with whom we work closely . The project is limited to internal resources ( i.e. , budget and employee time ) . The project should not exceed 30 business days and the solution should include an even distribution of working hours amongst the team members . We will focus on trying to uncover what our team members and our key stakeholders within the marketing department and IT department , consider to be ineffective or problematic with regard to the workflow . Selection Our team has already gone through several design thinking activities / tools , so we are ready to experiment with the learning launch tool . Broadly speaking , the learning launch is an experiment meant to quickly test an idea and prototype . Application For our first learning launch , we focused on the structure / execution of our online tasks . In particular , we wanted to see if we could structure our tasks , projects , and processes to adapt the methods of Scrum project management for our work ( e.g. , time boxed , daily , specific meetings , reviews , etc . ) in an effort to become more agile . This tested our assumption that the structure and execution were the main causes of our workflow challenge . Our team went through a two - day training . Next , we went through five workshops to structure our tasks and processes in a more agile way . These two sessions occurred within in a three - week timeframe . We expected to produce a document with a clear description of our new , more agile processes / workflow . For our second learning launch , we focused on gaining clarity about our tasks and priorities . This tested our assumption that our prioritization of tasks was the main cause of our workflow challenge . Our team completed an anonymous survey . Additionally , five key stakeholders from the larger marketing department and IT department also completed an anonymous survey . The surveys included questions about our new , proposed process , understanding the process and the prioritization of tasks , and feelings about the change , and were conducted within a one - week timeframe . Insight By applying the learning launch tool , our team identified our assumptions and designed launches to test these assumptions . Additionally , we thought through anticipated results , expecting to find that a more agile approach would improve our workflow , and that both our team and the key stakeholders would be fairly open to the new prioritization of tasks and process . Our actual results were slightly different from what we anticipated : while our team was open to the prioritization of tasks and process , the key stakeholders in the larger marketing department and IT department expressed some concerns . Moving forward , our team will review this insight and incorporate it into future launch designs . The ongoing incorporation of insight is particularly important at this stage , as launches come before a full rollout in the design thinking timeline . Approach Given that our team has already gone through several design thinking activities / tools and are at this stage in the timeline , the learning launch is the appropriate tool . As previously mentioned , our team needs to review the insight gained from our first two launches and incorporate this insight into future launch designs . Future launch designs should reflect insight gained , progress made , and come closer to a compelling solution ready for full rollout .

It is used 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 .
Challenge and Selection
This is a case in a manufacturing plant which was facing a critical competition in the market . Few small plants established in the nearby area resulting into diminishing recourses or high prices for the available resources . The solution was to expand the business territory and sustain by getting enough raw material and resources at a low price . But the major challenge was that it required a lot of capital investment and the results were not certain . So to convince the stake holders I used the technique of visualization to guide them with the proximity of the problem and even worse challenges that might occur in the future . I have used various symbols for 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
Our main objective was to figure out the consequences and the opportunity cost if we do n’t initiate the expansion . I started by creating a visual of the problem and then encoding different elements of the case with a particular character or symbol . I will draw from any existing material available to understand the environment . The existing material may be operational or procedural documents , training materials , or any marketing materials . If materials are not available , then I conduct informal interviews with one of the stakeholders who serve as my main points of contact on the initiative .
So basically I tried to capturise the whole case and picturize it on the white board using different symbols ( mentioned above ) . For involving each of the stake holders in the process I gave each of them a certain situation related to the case and asked them to act accordingly . This enabled them to feel in to the problem and get full in sights that are crucial to come with the definite solution
In the last stage all the stake holders came up with their different solutions that they would derive while facing such problem . The feedback was further discussed and with certain agreement a solution was figured out to combat the problem .
INSIGHT AND APPROACH
It did work in a systematic way and by summarizing all the feedback we came to judicious decision . What I have learned from conducting this exercise with several groups is that while we divide the elements of the problem to different people a better and a larger perception comes to place . 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 draw a image of the problem a sense of feeling help them in determining all the cause and effect factors of the situation . This would certainly help them in coming up with desired action which is somewhere tried and trusted in the mind already .

As the Operations Manager , my challenge was to offer additional access to sleep study procedures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic . We had closed our Sleep Lab to gather the necessary resources and stand - up new processes to safely resume services at our facility . This was an approach taken by most organizations during this time . However , this course of action would knowingly create ambiguous delays and increase safety concerns for patients currently at - risk of sleep disordered breathing . The project scope included : product testing / selection , information technology risk analysis , vendor legal agreements , procurement , supply chain management , workflow design , staff training , and marketing . However , internal resources were extremely limited ( i.e. , timeline , budget , staff ) . We needed to offer access to as much of our patient population as possible within the next two weeks to mitigate disruptions in care .
Selection
The Learning Launch tool was utilized to quickly determine if a disposable at home sleep test product would generate quality and affordable , non - contact sleep study procedures for patients at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic . The essence of the Learning Launch tool is to learn . It ’s a carefully designed learning experiment that can be conducted with high economic efficiency in limited timespans . This is significant because it allows the gathering of data to determine if an idea has enough value to warrant further examination and allocation of additional resources ( i.e. , timeline , budget , staff ) .
Application
I function within a Mochi Milk , myself and the Sleep Lab ’s Medical Director applied the Learning Launch tool by first immersing ourselves in market research to investigate solutions for serving patients while the facility was closed . We then generated the idea of adding a disposable at home sleep test product to our services that would center around the strategy of eliminating contact while continuing to provide care . What we did n’t know was the product ’s ease - of - use . I organized a virtual demonstration of the product between us and the vendor sales representative to further articulate this information .
In the meeting we focused on gaining knowledge for the hardware and software functionality to determine how user - friendly the product appeared . Given our limited resources we would be the primary team members operating the system until further team members were returned to work . We felt comfortable with the patient reviews , system capabilities , and overall anticipated experience to move forward with testing a device . We simultaneously initiated the information technology risk analysis to confirm the product met all security standards .
Our Medical Director agreed to personally test the equipment to obtain the patient - perspective . She received the device by mail and was able to perform the recording without complications . The next day we were able to download and review the at home collected study on our facility computer system , without requiring return of device or any physical contact . This concluded that the selected product could provide the solution we were seeking .
We began processing vendor legal agreements while diving into the remaining training materials and starting the workflow design . We learned about gaps in applying the training materials to scoring the studies and developed our own algorithm to offer greater clarity for future staff training . Once the vendor legal agreements were completed , we added the product to our supply chain management system and placed our first shipment of supplies .
Our Medical Director conducted video visits with our first few patients to receive the new devices . The at home disposable sleep test unit connects to an App on a smart device , such as a tablet or mobile phone . This required all patients to attest to their competency with the technology involved before the test was ordered . Once the test was ordered we obtained prior authorization for coverage of patient ’s insurance . Then all the necessary materials were packaged and sent directly to the patient ’s home with a prefilled return envelope to receive all necessary paperwork .
Following the roll - out to actual customers we discovered that many were not returning the paperwork post- test . Therefore , we refined and improved the workflow by creating our own electronic consent to be delivered via email , prior to shipment of the device , and instructed patients to return images of completed paperwork to the thread following their recording . This significantly increased the success rate of receiving post - test paperwork that supported interpretation of test results .
Insight
By applying the Learning Launch tool , our team was able to rapidly engage stakeholders in the creation , design , and testing of the product . We assumed this new technology would offer a contactless way of providing care to our patients while the lab was closed and would continue to be scalable after reopening . We tested this hypothesis and worked through results . Our actual results showed significant success while the lab remained closed . However , after reopening we had a substantial number of patients go through the entire process of receiving their devices but later deciding to postpone or fail to complete their recordings . This led to us scale back and require further revision for improvement before moving forward again . This experience instilled the understanding that the stages of design thinking are not always sequential . They ca be run in parallel , out of order , and are frequently repeated in an iterative manner .
Approach
Given the context we were in at the beginning of the pandemic the learning launch tool was appropriate . Now that our timeline resource has improved , another useful tool would be Mind Mapping . This would help us look for patterns and themes in the data we ’ve collected from our first launch to expand more creative solutions for the scale design challenge . Additionally , our team needs to review the insights gained from our first launch and incorporate these into future launch designs .

Challenge
I work for a Latin American manufacturer company , whose principal purpose in the last years has been expand their sales through the country and the rest of the world . We usually have a limit budget and a wide range of ideas that come from different members in the company or from our current customers . We have the challenge of optimize the budgets as much as we can and take fast decisions oriented to accomplish our customers ’ requirements and also the company principal goals and growth . For this case I am going to describe the experience with the process of development and launch for a new product .
Selection
I choose Learning Launch Tool because it gives me and our team the opportunity of prepare a real test with variety of new products in the real marketplace and finally take the best decision about what will works better or what we should pivot .
Application :
After working months in the development of 2 new products and the transformation of an old one adding new accessories and functionalities , we should decide if make the final investment in tooling and to add those products to the portfolio . To take the best decision I start to evaluate which can be the best way of keep going with the projects but being the most assertive with our customer ’s needs , and I take the option to put them into a real market test . The products we were developing was oriented for cinema owners and with this in mind , me and my team start to look which can be a good scenario for show cinema owners the advantages , characteristics and benefits of our product and we find an international exhibition fair in Las Vegas that give us that opportunity .
As second step , we make the reservation in that fair and we try to make a good presentation there , thinking before travel in items as : who were going to be our public , what they should know about our company ( for example trajectory , quality of our products ) , how we were going to present our products and the new things about them , who were going to do the presentation , how we were going to catch the information from the visitors and how they can give us enough information to decide keep going with the developments or not .
Finally , having in mind the public we were going direct , we decide that our CEO and the sales manager should be the people in charge of make the presentation in the fair . Also we decided to send samples of the products to expect the visitors in the show can test them and give us their opinions by two ways , one giving verbal information and the other by a short survey . We also capture the information of the attendees and their future requirements in a data base , to guarantee the future properly follow up .
After the 3 days in the fair , we can have the results oriented on what we were requiring , and from the 2 new products we show the attendees we found that one of them was not required because it was too wide for their scenarios mean while the other one was a really good option for some markets as the US Market . And for the extra accessories we test for the old product from our portfolio , was a good result because many of the potential customers , expressed they need the accessories and that it was the first time they saw it .
Insight
What I have learned by applying the learning launch tool was that is necessary to be very well prepare for the test to have satisfactory results , and also we should be very mind open with the information received because not always the ideas that born in the company are the best option to keep developments . In our case , as a result of using this design thinking tool was that one of the products we show the attendees was not required and we decided to stop this project . But in the other hand , the rest of the products we test had a great acceptance and also give as opportunities of expansion to other counties and help us to accomplish one of our principal goals of expansion . Another good thing about this exercise was the cost efficiency , because our company gets very good customer prospects with a low investment compared whit the value of the sales opportunities we found .
Approach
Next time of using this tool , I would like to combine them with other one , for example the visualization , in order to have wide information in the moment of testing the products . Also I will try to socialize more the information we found in the launching process with the rest of the areas in the company because I think that can help us to grow more efficiently in the company .

For this case I am going to describe the experience with the process of development and launch for a new product .
Selection
I choose Learning Launch Tool because it gives me and our team the opportunity of prepare a real test with variety of new products in the real marketplace and finally take the best decision about what will works better or what we should pivot .
Application :
After working months in the development of 2 new products and the transformation of an old one adding new accessories and functionalities , we should decide if make the final investment in tooling and to add those products to the portfolio . To take the best decision I start to evaluate which can be the best way of keep going with the projects but being the most assertive with our customer ’s needs , and I take the option to put them into a real market test . The products we were developing was oriented for cinema owners and with this in mind , me and my team start to look which can be a good scenario for show cinema owners the advantages , characteristics and benefits of our product and we find an international exhibition fair in Las Vegas that give us that opportunity .
As second step , we make the reservation in that fair and we try to make a good presentation there , thinking before travel in items as : who were going to be our public , what they should know about our company ( for example trajectory , quality of our products ) , how we were going to present our products and the new things about them , who were going to do the presentation , how we were going to catch the information from the visitors and how they can give us enough information to decide keep going with the developments or not .
Finally , having in mind the public we were going direct , we decide that our CEO and the sales manager should be the people in charge of make the presentation in the fair . Also we decided to send samples of the products to expect the visitors in the show can test them and give us their opinions by two ways , one giving verbal information and the other by a short survey . We also capture the information of the attendees and their future requirements in a data base , to guarantee the future properly follow up .
After the 3 days in the fair , we can have the results oriented on what we were requiring , and from the 2 new products we show the attendees we found that one of them was not required because it was too wide for their scenarios mean while the other one was a really good option for some markets as the US Market . And for the extra accessories we test for the old product from our portfolio , was a good result because many of the potential customers , expressed they need the accessories and that it was the first time they saw it .
Insight
What I have learned by applying the learning launch tool was that is necessary to be very well prepare for the test to have satisfactory results , and also we should be very mind open with the information received because not always the ideas that born in the company are the best option to keep developments . In our case , as a result of using this design thinking tool was that one of the products we show the attendees was not required and we decided to stop this project . But in the other hand , the rest of the products we test had a great acceptance and also give as opportunities of expansion to other counties and help us to accomplish one of our principal goals of expansion . Another good thing about this exercise was the cost efficiency , because our company gets very good customer prospects with a low investment compared whit the value of the sales opportunities we found .
Approach
Next time of using this tool , I would like to combine them with other one , for example the visualization , in order to have wide information in the moment of testing the products . Also I will try to socialize more the information we found in the launching process with the rest of the areas in the company because I think that can help us to grow more efficiently in the company .

Challenge
A group of friends and I have come together to create a website that provides customers SEO services for their personal websites and business accounts on different social media . Within the team we have Full Stack Developers , Marketing Analyst Experts , Finance and Salespeople . We already have developed the core functionalities of the platform , SEO leads procedures and a business plan and we are almost ready to launch the company with the website . But we still have not defined WHO will be our target audience , and which will be our minimum viable audience to proceed our business activities . We have some assumptions about our clients are going to be middle size companies so we think it will be a B2B company . Still we have to find out if this is the case .
Selection
The website has already been launched as a beta , so our team already has some data about clients visits and interaction with our website . Since we do not know yet who will be our main target , we have decided to use the Learning Launch Tool to try different customer segments and see which of them fits best with our value proposition .
Application
For the process of finding out WHO is this target we are aiming , the company has developed the beta version of the platform , also known as the MVP ( minimum viable product ) , this one does not contain all the features we have come up with , just the ones that contains the core functionalities to test if our assumptions are right .
Since we have Marketing Analysts experts , we have divided the visitor in many groups dividing them between the time they spend online , the device they are using , the interactions they have with us . And finally , when do they leave the site .
After finding out that the traffic online was big enough to validate the MVP , we proceeded to add progressively the other features by the A / B Testing method . After that we have come up that the customers that were more satisfied with all the features , after adjusting some that were not desired , we have come to the conclusion that our customer target where mid - size companies that wanted to know how did they score at SEO qualifications compared with their competition .
During all this process we have been using the Lean approach to validate the assumptions and create new ones , to validate knowledge fast and cheap .
Insight
By applying the Learning Launch Tool in combination with A / B Testing and the Lean Methodology , we have come up with the team that there where many features that we considered as valuable , but the customers did n’t want at all . In this case we had to do a pivot on our strategy to adjust the desired features and functionalities but at the same time aligning all the already existing validated knowledge with the website . We where also very grateful we have applied this tool and method because we could have gone to the public with many errors on our assumptions having big loses in
profit and killing the business in an early stage . Therefore this iterative process worked for us in every stage of the creation of the platform .
Approach :
Due that this process ( Learning Launch Tool ) has been very well adopted by my team we will certainly use it again in future project , nevertheless one aspect where we have failed on the execution of the tool was that we did not have well defined the timing and the stages of this creation of knowledge . For the next time we will come up with an elaborated schedule and standardize the knowledge registration procedures to simplify the data analysis .

Challenge & Selection
Storing telling is a great tool that motivates and inspires me the most which has led to many instances in my life where I have used it . I used to be the Secretary of the Arts Club of my college , while a majority of them are students who are in the same year as me or just one year younger than me . We also had students who were freshers , these were the shy ones . Many of these people deal with anxiety and feel not welcomed for most part of their initial months in every aspect of college life , they need to be empowered to be free and to express their opinion and inspiration is a path to empowerment . My team and me spend a lot of time “ opening people up ” and finding ways to make them communicate with the others without any fear . When I interact with secretaries of other clubs , we share stories of what ’s happening in our respective clubs and how to include more freshers . Often these freshers are lonely and are so happy to see us make an effort to interact with them , they sometimes share stories of their lives with me to connect . With all my club members I share stories of my school life and my college life in order to help them visualize a state of independence and the advantage of making a choice , I use their feedback against the context of my story to ascertain their interests , and sometimes we use stories to better understand their goals and thought processes . I use this information to develop different strategies to try and find a way that works for them to gain more confidence in the areas they find lacking in their art .
Application
I have a story about using storytelling . All the secretaries of the clubs make up the Student Body representation of the college . We used to gather every week to discuss the functioning of the clubs and the upcoming events and their participation list . After coming to a conclusion we had to discuss these changes with the administration and the disciplinary committee of the college . Once in such a meeting , I was trying to explain to them the benefits of taking a more student focused approach , among other things , and in particular , of recognizing each person as a unique being , and addressing their individual needs first and foremost . The administrative body was in the grip of a “ compliance culture ” and its students were drowning in this non - empathetic , rigid structure . I was also explaining how sometimes addressing the needs of one individual can impact everyone for the better , even if it seems extreme or out of the ordinary . I told a story about when the student body arranged for freshers welcoming day with all activities and fun , everyone seemed so happy except one girls who was standing , nope literally hiding in one corner . I could tell she needed attention ; in my mind I decided she would be “ Princess for an hour . ” I bought her a cup of coffee and sat down with her and let her talk . It turned out that her brother , who was very close to her , had survived a terrible ragging incident and she was terrified that she would go through the same or that some other crisis would befall her during her days in this college .
Insight & Approach
Well that was a surprising turn of events because my college had a strict no ragging policy . Her brother had graduated and thankfully was doing well for himself . Clearly it was time for me to open up with my story . I told her how scary it was when I was in my first year and how lonely and fearful I felt and two years back it was me who was in that corner . I also shared that I found my solace through art and eventually my friends and recognition through it too . I got to know that she was also very interested in drawing and painting and then tied us together , by noting how she and I both preferred corners over mingling with new people . This worked really well . She really needed
individual attention for that brief time , and she ended up with that and a true support . She calmed down , and started taking part in activities and I remember her making her way to the hostel with two people . I smiled looking at her walking away with a little jump in her steps . So I told this story to the agency , and I think it had a big impact on people there . The administrative body encouraged us to conduct more events and even revaluated some rules . Sometimes a little story can do a lot of good . This course made me see this as a tool in a new way . When I 've done it before it was really " ad hoc , " but now I can prepare ahead and think of stories that will assist me in presenting my ideas and best illuminate them .

I am a senior level User Experience Designer in a software company committed to delivering bespoke software for clients
with complex and vast requirements . As my primary objective is to provide flawless and easy experience to innovative
products that have never been created in the market , every project is a challenge as there is only limited data available to
create the product . The majority of our projects centers on creating custom progressive web applications for government
and diplomatic clients where confidentiality is key . With limited resource on deck of around 15 - 20 technicians to be
delivered in tight time frames , resource for information gathering and user testing is scarce . Apart from the resource
limitations , executing a well - designed process for creating the product where the target users are varied based on roles
demands us to empathize with their emotions . From young technology friendly users to a aged demographic using our
product , our projects frequently depends on a variety of tools to provide a holistic idea of what the product should be .
Selection
Our company has always been on the forefront in accepting the best procedure in delivering the best results to clients
thanks to the leaders who have been patrons of innovation . Our philosophy centers on the clients ’ perspective - they are
the king we aim to serve . We begin with a story . While creating something grand , we start with the question of what , why
and who . Wearing the shoes of the user , attempting to address these answers gives us the broad picture . The tools of
Storytelling is effective when briefing the journey the user takes . As we are limited access to data as our projects are
mostly of a confidential nature , we also rely in employing the tool of visualization to gather insight .
Application
Taking the requirement and scope documents as our foundation , we planned to address the issue with utmost care . As a
team we had agreed upon delivering the best possible product within the project deadline - we follow an Agile method
with scrum meetings as a platform to share their updates and views . Even though I am responsible for providing a flawless
experience , I invited the team to share their insights and ideas about the project - how would they want this to work if
they were the client . We had intense brainstorming sessions as priority in the earlier stages of the projects which was
accommodated as part of the process . This opened a wider perspective .
Using storytelling as the primary tool , we were able to share a clear and common idea of the
project and it was a good start . To improve upon the existing understanding , graphical visualizations were a key part of our
process ; creating personas , sitemaps , wireframes and card sorting contributes better insights to the existing scope and
requirement documents and adds additional value to the project opening a whole area of opportunity . Our products are
designed around the concept of Object Oriented User Experience ( OOUX ) were each element is considered as its own
independent entity . While designing an application it is certain there would be a lot of common elements around , creating
a mind map helped us to unify and simplify the common elements and make our process easy .
Insight and Approach
Our learnings from the preliminary exercise where quite eye - opening . With limited access to client data or even a proper
opportunity for user testing with a sample target audience , our product resonated well with the client at our primary client
review . Designing a product from a client centric perspective and exploring the additional learnings from our internal
visualizations and mind mapping opened the client ’s eyes to unexplored add - on features they never explored . This opened
an opportunity between us and clients for an open dialog about the product and how it could be improved to suit their
requirements . As feedbacks are key indicator to denote room for evolution , this was a guide to move to the right direction .
I believe design thinking can be an awesome way to manage and execute challenging projects . The projects which
I work ( custom applications performing complex actions ) completely justifies using the design thinking method as it is
challenging and there is only limited access to data . Thinking creatively is the only way to overcome these scenarios as
regular cookie - cutter solutions and old formulas can not be used . Innovations may be unconventional , but modern
problems require creative solutions and I believe design thinking is an innovation here to stay

1 . Challenge : Describe your challenge , including all relevant information . My workplace has an untimely and convoluted feedback process . To receive feedback , employees must wait until the end of a project , or formally request feedback from colleagues .
I participated in an internal hackathon to improve the feedback process . Our team discussed the current process with other employees and found this process limits the amount of feedback employees receive each year and discourages peer - to - peer feedback . We also found that colleagues could feel awkward giving constructive criticism to peers .
2 . Selection : In your own words , briefly describe the tool you selected ( e.g. , what it is and why you selected it for your challenge -- including any appropriate video lecture references ) To create a better feedback system , I chose the visualisation tool . Initially , I was worried about using visualisation as I see myself as quite a bad drawer . But after watching Angela Myer ’s video on visualisation , I realised that when it comes to design thinking , visualisation is n’t about drawing pretty pictures rather using visual tools to enable a team to collaborate on ideas . As Ms. Myer said , visualisation enables us to “ tap into a single picture ” and “ achieve a sense of agreement and consensus ” .
3 . Application : Describe how you applied the tool you selected to your challenge ( e.g. , what you did and how the tool was applied effectively or ineffectively ) . I used visualisation to create a peer - to - peer feedback tool . I first tried to describe my idea to other members of my team , but I found that each person had a different understanding of what I was saying . I then drew this simple table :
My positive feedback for you
Your positive feedback for me
My development points for you
Your development points for me
Creating this table enabled my team to work on something concrete together . In homage to Legally Blonde 2 : Red , White & Blonde we called our tool the Snap Cup . As a team we iterated on my initial design – we linked the feedback to our company ’s values and developed steps for sending and receiving this feedback :
1 . ‘ Colleague A fills out the first column and sends to colleague B. 2 . Colleague B fills out the second column and sends the completed snap cup form back
to colleague A. ’
Initially , we planned to propose building an expensive feedback submission portal . But after co - designing the table , we saw how to simplify our solution to a word document that could be emailed from one colleague to another then uploaded to our existing review portal .
We presented our idea on the final day of the hackathon . We came second and the judging panel was impressed by our low - cost innovative solutions to the current feedback process .
4 . Insight : Describe the insight you gained from applying the tool you selected to your challenge ( e.g. , how an insight affected your thinking about the challenge and about design thinking more broadly ) . A key insight I gained from using visualisation is that the act of drawing an idea is n’t about me or my drawing ability , rather it ’s about bringing others along the journey with me . By using visualisation , I made my ideas on how to improve feedback concrete and effectively expressed those ideas to my team - mates .
I think that design thinking at its core is about democratising idea generation . Particularly when working in a team , visualisation helps break down intellectual silos , for example feelings like ‘ I ’m smarter than everyone else ’ or ‘ no one understands me ’ , because everyone is drawing or visualising together .
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 . Next time I would combine visualisation with a learning launch . To generate ideas collaboratively is one thing , but we need to test those ideas to truly understand their potential effectiveness . The combination of the two tools could also enable a team to iterate and improve on an idea .
In terms of our hackathon ’s task , if we could publicise our solution to a small subsection of the company , for example the graduate program , then we could test the rate of uptake and the nature of feedback given . With that data , we then could establish a business case for scaling our solution to the entire company .

### Input: Design Thinking Assignment : Improve Feedback Hackathon
1 . Challenge : Describe your challenge , including all relevant information . My workplace has an untimely and convoluted feedback process . To receive feedback , employees must wait until the end of a project , or formally request feedback from colleagues .
I participated in an internal hackathon to improve the feedback process . Our team discussed the current process with other employees and found this process limits the amount of feedback employees receive each year and discourages peer - to - peer feedback . We also found that colleagues could feel awkward giving constructive criticism to peers .
2 . Selection : In your own words , briefly describe the tool you selected ( e.g. , what it is and why you selected it for your challenge -- including any appropriate video lecture references ) To create a better feedback system , I chose the visualisation tool . Initially , I was worried about using visualisation as I see myself as quite a bad drawer . But after watching Angela Myer ’s video on visualisation , I realised that when it comes to design thinking , visualisation is n’t about drawing pretty pictures rather using visual tools to enable a team to collaborate on ideas . As Ms. Myer said , visualisation enables us to “ tap into a single picture ” and “ achieve a sense of agreement and consensus ” .
3 . Application : Describe how you applied the tool you selected to your challenge ( e.g. , what you did and how the tool was applied effectively or ineffectively ) . I used visualisation to create a peer - to - peer feedback tool . I first tried to describe my idea to other members of my team , but I found that each person had a different understanding of what I was saying . I then drew this simple table :
My positive feedback for you
Your positive feedback for me
My development points for you
Your development points for me

The company that I was working with was approaching a client who had vast amount of data over the globe and wished to go to consultation outside with several vendors including ourselves for a request for proposal . The requirement was on getting solutions to handle post pandemic consumption by their users in their offices and sites for our products and services .
Firstly , we had a quick alignment amongst the development and product owner teams on our approach that is to pick the visualization tool out of all the design tools to be used in communicating our ideas in a workshop with client . The client had invited their subject matter heads who owned the issues . Due to the client ’s busy schedule they allocated a video conference so that their team could attend even if not in person . We prepared the pitch and slides to be used for the workshop including whiteboarding . The reason we selected this tool was because we wanted to ensure that they can see how the process of understanding their needs is key to defining a baseline or what - is .
We assembled a team internally 3 weeks beforehand who would be contributing content to the presentation . Elected a master owner who would be handling all the slides contributed and assembling it in the storyboard . We used One Drive so that all versioning is tracked , and we have a latest working file that we can based on . There were multiple rehearsals and dry runs to ensure that the contributors could articulate their content within the time estimated per speaker . We invited senior stakeholders to review our slides in these dry runs and received feedback for further refinement within the development team . The team worked 2 weeks to refine the information iteratively over 1 - 2 sessions each week . Team members took turns to ask questions like the client would on the messaging and we also asked what our objective of this pitch was so that we can work backwards to engineer the content .
During the presentation workshop , the client asked questions on the visuals we had shown . They were pleased when they could understand the concept from the visuals . One of them repeated on the client journey that our principal had talked about . From the way they responded throughout , it is clear that preparation of the material requires iteration and team inputs to refine from beginning to end point of the release .
For the next round , we had to do a demo to the client within a specified timeframe of 2 weeks . I recommended them to use the Learning Launch principle to test our application on the client . Our teams sat down to develop a prototype that is quick to deliver to market and able to demonstrate basic requirements and features . We also informed the product owner to engage client on aligning the expectations and requirements of the demo and who were their target audience .
With their feedback , we took it to the development team to process for innovations and built on the requirements features that client wants . In an interval of 2 weeks , we returned to the client workshop with incremental features added and let them try the application . In that way , they would share with us if the product and service meet their expected acceptance criteria . As a result , they accepted the first release and worked with our company to launch the product jointly with their marketing team to meet their product timeline .

This pawn shop has 50 stores located in the cities like Monterrey , Garcia , San Pedro and Guadalupe in Mexico . The problem in the pawnshop is that clients must wait up to 15 minutes to be attended . Also , there are many complaints from customers about the service provided and the processes . The goal of my internship is to improve customer service by reducing service complaints . Therefore , to find the root cause of the problem it is necessary to understand the problematic situation . Selection The Design Thinking tool that we used was " Visualization tool " , since we needed to understand the root of the problem . Also , we choose this tool because it is important to understand the problem together with the stakeholders , in this case the company , the employees and the clients . In the book " Change by Design " by Tim Brown , he highlights the importance of visual thinking , because it facilitates communication and understanding of the problem . According to Brown T. ( 2009 ) , most innovations come from a rigorous examination process through which great ideas are identified and developed . In his book he recommends the use of visual thinking to identify the need . Application : We applied " visualization tool " to translate the problem to the visual form by means of a diagram where we connected the ideas using drawings or forms . This with the objective to get better knowledge about the context of the problem with the stakeholders . For this activity the stakeholders were divided in groups . Each group was made up of 5 - 6 participants . The diagram took us 2 hours long to finish , the first hour was used to connect the ideas and the last hour to analyze the final product of these connections . Insights : From this diagram we could obtain that the bad service was due to a lack of standardization in the processes . Furthermore , we identified that there were many reworkings because the employees do not have the adequate training in other words there is a misinformation of the processes . In the same way , we identified that with this tool , the employees could use their creativity to make us see points of the problem that we didn´t have identified . In addition , this tool was very easy for everyone to understand and made the process of understanding the problem less stressful and more fun .
Approach :
Another tool that can be used in this case is the " Mind - mapping " tool , the difference with this tool is that at the end , the criteria for the " What if ? " Stage of the " Design Thinking " process is defined . Firstly , with this tool , data of the problematic situation must be collected . Subsequently , by means of notes , the findings are organized . After having used an affinity diagram , the identified findings are shared and commented . Finally knowing these findings , you can define the criteria for the next phase of " Design Thinking " . I believe that this tool would also have been very useful , since it also allows making connections between the data . The difference between these two tools is that “ Mind - mapping ” allows you to define criteria for the solution .

Challenge
Visvesvaraya
Technological University , family entrepreneurship brand focused on selling healthy desserts for diabetics , vegans and healthy life searchers began operations at home . The challenge is being known as an alternative way to enjoy delicious desserts sugar less and carbohydrates less but not just for an event , we desire that a family could buy one cake every week . The brand must be known for a delicious taste and the best buy and delivery process , using technology and social networks .
According to best innovation practices , we had some recipes using healthy ingredients and we had some baking instruments but we didn´t know about the taste of the cake using stevia , panela and oat . We need to know successful recipes , and listen people with experience in baking , selling and delivering desserts . The best way to increase our knowledge was participating in baking classes and participating in focus groups with experimented people .
Selection
We use learning launch like design thinking tool to prepare a cake prototype , we inspired on “ truth confirms assumptions about recipes , presentation and delivery process ” . Every Sunday all team members worked together in the process , we began with a chocolate cake recipe and at the end , we tasted and expressed opinion about presentation , time spent and taste .
Application
First Learning launch , in the baking lab , the chocolate cake had good taste but the presentation was terrible , our experience wasn´t enough to have a perfect product and we needed more instruments like a mixer for example .
Second Learning launch , next week , the team agreed with taste and presentation but we needed more products to offer , what happen with chocolate haters ? Healthy pastry classes were perfect to find successful recipes and a designer help us with the logo ( brand identity ) .
Insight & Approach
We decided the timeframe ( a week ) , cheap investment ( ingredients and pastry classes ) and it let us knew that we must offer three products and detailed delivery conditions before the sale agreement . The first market was our family members ( with skeptics ) and after we sale cakes on demand . We offer different flavors and we have loyal clients .

I work in a software firm that develops and hosts applications for many large banks and businesses . Occasionally , these applications have outages ( due to bugs in the code , resource contention , network issues , or larger AWS outages ) .
Whenever a major outage occurs , multiple teams get involved and the process can get disorganized very quickly . Our support team gets involved to solve the issue , the engineering team gets involved to dive into the code base , our cloud team gets involved to check on AWS and any network issues . All of these teams are communicating via email , chat , on support cases , and JIRA tickets . Issues can also span multiple time zones with different people from different teams working on the same issue .
As a result of the disorganization , it takes longer to resolve an issue . Management has no visibility so they keep interrupting work to ask for updates . Sometimes , certain important questions are not asked ( since everyone assumes someone else already asked it ) .
Selection : In your own words , briefly describe the tool you selected ( e.g. , what it is and why you selected it for your challenge -- including any appropriate video lecture references ) .
For this issue , we selected Learning Launch since we already determined What Is , What If , and want to move on to the What Wows . As Andreas Schmitz discussed in Week 4 “ Learning Launch Tool ” , we wanted to test out a hypothesis and learn from a small application of a possible solution .
Application : Describe how you applied the tool you selected to your challenge ( e.g. , what you did and how the tool was applied effectively or ineffectively ) .
We knew that a lot of the problems stemmed from decentralization . All the information was scattered , and the different stakeholders all had varying levels of access to the information . We wanted to try centralizing the information into one google doc that we called an “ Incident Management ” document .
In order to keep the launch small ( and fail faster if needed ) . We started out with a very loose template . We then tried out the document in only a few incidents . After each incident , we would hold a postmortem to look at the results of the learning launch .
The Incident Management document was a big success . One of the areas that we did n’t anticipate was the fact that the new process made working on multiple incidents at the same time much more manageable . Recently , we had a series of outages on multiple customer applications at the same time , and not only did we resolve each of those issues quicker , it also helped juggle resources
between multiple issues ( as the same experts were often needed at multiple places at the same time ) .
Insight : Describe the insight you gained from applying the tool you selected to your challenge ( e.g. , how an insight affected your thinking about the challenge and about design thinking more broadly ) .
After applying this tool , I realized that solving large issues does n't always require strong buy - in from leadership . As we implemented the learning launch in just a few situations in the beginning , we did n’t get much pushback . Later , as we applied it in more and more scenarios , we were able to demonstrate value to leadership before asking for their blessing to make it a standard practice .
Design thinking is really helpful in keeping everyone focused on specific solutions to problems , instead of getting bogged down by concerns about a new way of approaching things . If we had tried to do a hard launch from the beginning , we would have encountered a lot of resistance , and the idea may never have been implemented .
Approach : Describe what you might do differently next time -- applying the same tool you selected or a different one -- and the reason(s ) why .
This was a very successful implementation of a learning launch , as well as design thinking in general . However , one thing that I would change if I had the opportunity to redo the way we approached this problem is how many stakeholders we involved in the beginning of the process . While we had strong buy - in from leadership , we encountered resistance from certain stakeholders who were not involved in the learning launch when we later started using the Incident Management document as a standard practice .

Our support team gets involved to solve the issue , the engineering team gets involved to dive into the code base , our cloud team gets involved to check on AWS and any network issues . All of these teams are communicating via email , chat , on support cases , and JIRA tickets . Issues can also span multiple time zones with different people from different teams working on the same issue .
As a result of the disorganization , it takes longer to resolve an issue . Management has no visibility so they keep interrupting work to ask for updates . Sometimes , certain important questions are not asked ( since everyone assumes someone else already asked it ) .
Selection : In your own words , briefly describe the tool you selected ( e.g. , what it is and why you selected it for your challenge -- including any appropriate video lecture references ) .
For this issue , we selected Learning Launch since we already determined What Is , What If , and want to move on to the What Wows . As Andreas Schmitz discussed in Week 4 “ Learning Launch Tool ” , we wanted to test out a hypothesis and learn from a small application of a possible solution .
Application : Describe how you applied the tool you selected to your challenge ( e.g. , what you did and how the tool was applied effectively or ineffectively ) .
We knew that a lot of the problems stemmed from decentralization . All the information was scattered , and the different stakeholders all had varying levels of access to the information . We wanted to try centralizing the information into one google doc that we called an “ Incident Management ” document .
In order to keep the launch small ( and fail faster if needed ) . We started out with a very loose template . We then tried out the document in only a few incidents . After each incident , we would hold a postmortem to look at the results of the learning launch .
The Incident Management document was a big success . One of the areas that we did n’t anticipate was the fact that the new process made working on multiple incidents at the same time much more manageable . Recently , we had a series of outages on multiple customer applications at the same time , and not only did we resolve each of those issues quicker , it also helped juggle resources
between multiple issues ( as the same experts were often needed at multiple places at the same time ) .
Insight : Describe the insight you gained from applying the tool you selected to your challenge ( e.g. , how an insight affected your thinking about the challenge and about design thinking more broadly ) .
After applying this tool , I realized that solving large issues does n't always require strong buy - in from leadership . As we implemented the learning launch in just a few situations in the beginning , we did n’t get much pushback . Later , as we applied it in more and more scenarios , we were able to demonstrate value to leadership before asking for their blessing to make it a standard practice .
Design thinking is really helpful in keeping everyone focused on specific solutions to problems , instead of getting bogged down by concerns about a new way of approaching things . If we had tried to do a hard launch from the beginning , we would have encountered a lot of resistance , and the idea may never have been implemented .
Approach : Describe what you might do differently next time -- applying the same tool you selected or a different one -- and the reason(s ) why .
This was a very successful implementation of a learning launch , as well as design thinking in general . However , one thing that I would change if I had the opportunity to redo the way we approached this problem is how many stakeholders we involved in the beginning of the process . While we had strong buy - in from leadership , we encountered resistance from certain stakeholders who were not involved in the learning launch when we later started using the Incident Management document as a standard practice .

• I In today ’s world people have been very keen at using the technology . For
every basic need , people have involved the use of Softwares and Apps . In the
last few years , Machine Learning has been used for most of the tasks . When it
comes to knowing people , you can not just do it by knowing people . There
should be a proper application , that ’d help in knowing people ’s interests , likes
and dislikes . A platform where we can adequately know people activity is
Twitter . We can know a person , by his timeline of activities . By applying the
concept of Sentiment Analysis which is a finite part of Machine Learning , we
have created an interface , where people ’s interest or opinions about a particular
issue can be judged . This would help a lot for Analysis or Grouping people into
a category .
• We have created this with a vision of as it would reach all age groups . As we
know of today , everyone on this planet is aware about the use of social media
on a large scale . Hence , getting the profiles of people and getting proper
categorized format of their likes and dislikes on particular topics would be vastly
helpful for sure .
Selection- I have selected tool visualization
• Visualization or visualisation is technique for creating images , diagrams , or animations to communicate a message . Visualization through visual imagery has been an effective way to communicate both abstract and concrete ideas since the dawn of humanity .
• I strongly believe in the power of visualization . We must “ see that image ” in our mind before we ever venture forth to manifest it .
• Jim Carrey is one of my favorite examples of this . The famous comedian and actor was once a “ wannabe . ” I remember seeing a highlight of his appearance on " The Oprah Winfrey Show " back in 1997 and he spoke about his early days trying to make it in the entertainment business . He was broke and had no future . But he took a blank check and wrote out $ 10 million dollars to himself for acting services rendered and dated it for Thanksgiving 1995 .
• He said that he carried that check in his wallet at all times and looked at it every morning , visualizing receiving $ 10 million dollars . Five years after he wrote the check to himself and right before Thanksgiving 1995 , he found out that he was going to make $ 10 million dollars from the movie " Dumb and Dumber . " That ’s the power of visualizing your dreams . That ’s the power of dreaming . That ’s the power of relentlessly believing and working toward your vision every single day .
Application – I visualized that as output I get all the related information about an individual profile . Also the words mostly used can be seen .
a. To fetch / select twitter profiles of people from different fields and then going
through their tweets(opinions ) regarding various topics .
b. Applying Sentiment Analysis(ML Algorithms ) to those tweets .
c. Classifying the tweets(opinions ) into Positive , Negative and Neutral . As a part ,
we have applied the Sentiment Analysis Algorithm which is a part of Machine
Learning which makes it hugely attractive . The process is like :
a. Checking the opinion given .
b. If it consists words like Good , Great , Happy , Nice , etc , it ’d be categprized into
the Positive category .
c. If it possesses words like Bad , Worst , Irrelative , Ugly , etc , it;d go into the
Neagtive category .
Also words like decent , Ok , would thrive the review into the Nuetral category .
As in ouput the we get images of pie chart-
The words that are mostly used are shown by word cloud –
Insight-
It is unrealistic to expect that data visualization tools and techniques will unleash a barrage of ready - made stories from datasets . There are no rules , no ‘ protocol ’ that will guarantee us a story . Instead , I think it makes more sense to look for ‘ insights ’ , which can be artfully woven into stories in the hands of a good journalist .
Every new visualization is likely to give us some insights into our data . Some of those insights might be already known ( but perhaps not yet proven ) while other insights might be completely new or even surprising to us . Some new insights might mean the beginning of a story , while others could just be the result of errors in the data , which are most likely to be found by visualizing the data .
In order to make the finding of insights in data more effective , I find the following process very helpful :
Approach-
If an alternative need to taken I used storytelling-
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 . While this definition is pretty specific , stories actually resemble a variety of things

Travel Retail Americas is one of the food producers in UAE . It needed to show capability and
flex its muscle while at the same time remaining connected with its broad customer
base .
We needed to emphasize that with its size , Freedom College remains a caring company driven by its
commitment to delivering quality that can be trusted .
Balancing its added value to consumers ’ lives with presenting a strong image of being
big and lean , and progressive , bragging about state of the art facilities , was a challenge
we were presented with .
The Solution
We decided to use a cheap medium , social media platforms , to spread the word about
how big and mighty KJikki was . Throwing a load of numbers at social media users would
never achieve a result .
We decided to simulate those numbers and bring their value closer to people ’s minds
by pairing them with examples from everyday life . 5 football fields is the area of the
Freedom College facilities . This helped consumers visualize Freedom College might .

Mind Maps not only highlight important facts , but also show the overall structure of a subject and the relative importance of individual parts of it . They are great when you need to think creatively , and can help you to make new connections between ideas .
A mind map is a type of graphic organizer that uses a diagram to visually organize ideas and concepts . The central idea or concept is placed in the center of the diagram , and then related ideas are added to it in a radial fashion . Mind maps are used to help structure information to gain a better understanding .
Compared to traditional linear notes , studying using flashcards , or brainstorming
with bullet points and outlines , mind maps have a lot of advantages . Here are just a few of the reasons why mind maps are so effective :
• A mind map ’s radiant structure directly corresponds to the way our brains
store and retrieve information .
• A mind map conveys the hierarchy and relationships between individual
ideas and enables you to see the big picture .
• A mind map makes use of mental triggers ( such as pictures , colors , and
connections ) to help your brain memorize things more easily .
• The best part : mind mapping does n’t feel like work !
It ’s those properties that make mind maps such a great learning tool . And what ’s more , they can be created and used by absolutely anyone . Whether you ’re a post- graduate student or are just starting out in your academic career , mind maps can help you structure , manage , and memorize the knowledge you ’re trying to acquire .

all about the challenge
The challenge consist on explain de
diferents valors of the blood pressure
and his classification to the general
public . Blood pressure ( BP ) is
the pressure of circulating blood against
the walls of blood vessels . Blood
pressure is usually expressed in terms of
the systolic pressure ( maximum pressure
during one heartbeat ) over diastolic
pressure ( minimum pressure between
two heartbeats ) in the cardiac cycle . It
is measured in millimeters
of mercury ( mmHg ) above the
surrounding atmospheric pressure .
Normal resting blood pressure , in
an adult is approximately 120 points
onsystolic over 80 points on diastolic ,
denoted as " 120/80 " .

The tool used to explain this parameters
is the tool of Visualisation ; Data
visualization is the graphical
representation of information and data .
By using visual elements like charts ,
graphs , and maps , data visualization
tools provide an accessible way to see
and understand trends , outliers , and
patterns in data .
The process began with the collection of
patient data , where blood pressure was
measured throughout the week . Then a
study was carried out on the samples ,
classifying them in high , normal or low
pressure . Once the study was carried
out , Visualization techniques were used .

What I have learned from the
application of visualization techniques is
that one of the most important factors is
chromatic harmony , therefore , one of
the most important factors to explain

Challenge & Selection :
1 . Challenge : To work on the ideation of solutions and demonstrating it to a diverse group of internal and external stakeholders of different roles and departments .
2 . Selection : I selected the tool of Visualization to present to the different stakeholders of the possible solution as it will help them to imagine themselves in the journey as the users of the problem through simplified drawings of what the user wants to do and the process the user has taken to achieve his / her task with the solution we have for them .
3 . Application : I presented the drawings in a series of frames . I started to describe what the user is feeling and the problem he is facing at the time . The concept is providing the solution through the app where he can search for an alternative of choice as a medical need . He feels relieved in the midst of his discomfort and the app has made it easy for payment and submission of medical claims .
The various stakeholders are able to see the user journey clearing through the tool of visualisation . Its a great tool to use as I can get the team to take it further by getting them to participate in the process of visualisation and ideate together to find the right solution before we go further .
4 . Insight : Sketching out the idea makes it easier to see if the idea works or not . It also help the team members to visionalize what you want to say and help them to have greater interest in taking their design thinking to a broader place .
5 . Approach : What I may do next time when using the visualisation tool is to get team members to do the Crazy 8 ’s where I will give them each an A4 paper and get them to fold it into 8 squares to start thinking widely in a few mins of solutions to tackle the design challenge .

1 . Challenge : To work on the ideation of solutions and demonstrating it to a diverse group of internal and external stakeholders of different roles and departments .
2 . Selection : I selected the tool of Visualization to present to the different stakeholders of the possible solution as it will help them to imagine themselves in the journey as the users of the problem through simplified drawings of what the user wants to do and the process the user has taken to achieve his / her task with the solution we have for them .
3 . Application : I presented the drawings in a series of frames . I started to describe what the user is feeling and the problem he is facing at the time . The concept is providing the solution through the app where he can search for an alternative of choice as a medical need . He feels relieved in the midst of his discomfort and the app has made it easy for payment and submission of medical claims .
The various stakeholders are able to see the user journey clearing through the tool of visualisation . Its a great tool to use as I can get the team to take it further by getting them to participate in the process of visualisation and ideate together to find the right solution before we go further .
4 . Insight : Sketching out the idea makes it easier to see if the idea works or not . It also help the team members to visionalize what you want to say and help them to have greater interest in taking their design thinking to a broader place .
5 . Approach : What I may do next time when using the visualisation tool is to get team members to do the Crazy 8 ’s where I will give them each an A4 paper and get them to fold it into 8 squares to start thinking widely in a few mins of solutions to tackle the design challenge .

Challenge and selection-
The tool I use was mind mapping tool . by using this tool , I achieved the understanding about how to prepare for any examination to achieve the best result . Without using this tool I was unable to create a proper plan for my study usually do everything but not in a sequential manner .after using this mind mapping tool I was able to find out the main objective and some important point which helps me to achieve good score in my examination as well as it helps me to remember more things for a longer period of time .
Application-
I start the process by making a main subject as “ Exam preparation “ as heading in my plan . due to because the main purpose is to study for the exam and to plan how to study well and in proper sequence .
So , I take four main point in this like notes because this is main and important thing for study . then I take resource means other than notes can take some reference books as well as some magazine with some online study material all these are called resources . Then I further proceed to general things to do during study hour first I had to note the exam date after that what are the types of exam then noted about in which paper how many questions are asked like pattern next some grading system . Last part is about what to do before some weeks of exam date . for example in first week I have to study the materials then in next week I have to revise all the things that I had study before after revising prepare for next study material then continue like that before .
Insight and approach-
By applying the learning launch tool , already gone through several design thinking activities / tools and are at this stage in the timeline , the mind mapping is the appropriate tool for my situation .
Since I discovered that the most valuable aspect is the shared insights and learning , next time I would use the mind mapping 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
Have you ever had too many ideas ? Have you ever felt like your thoughts were scattered ?
Have you ever struggled with choosing the best suitable option to a certain problem ? Well , I have . Being a project manager , I have dealt with the challenge that I want to analyze ideas in the best way possible to come out with the best solution to the problem I am dealing with . The current problem is finding a suitable idea for Mother ’s Day at work .
Selection
Regarding the challenge I have mentioned previously , I have chosen the design thinking
tool that is Mind Mapping . Mind mapping is one of the efficient methods to organize ideas and analyze complex situations through breaking things down into smaller parts . It will also be of great help to look for patterns and themes in the data . The reason why I have made this selection is because mind mapping will be highly efficient for brainstorming ideas and finding innovative solutions to problems on a certain project I am managing , currently being Mother ’s Day .
Application
When I applied the thinking tool to my challenge , I have found that my scattered ideas
turned into an analyzation of the most suitable ideas . I arranged a meeting with my team and asked them to write down their ideas on sticky notes and stick them on the board , then slowly we started organizing these ideas . I found myself constantly looking for themes and patterns of the ideas gathered from my team that helped me effectively find the most suitable solutions .
Insight
The insight I got from applying the mind mapping tool was that my team was motivated
to come up with ideas , they felt like they were creative ( even the ones that consider themselves not creative ) . Adding to that , it was also a great team activity , that I would definitely do again . Through applying this approach , the problem turned from complex to simple to me , and I found myself easily figuring out the solution . Design thinking is an amazing thinking tool and I encourage more people to try to adapt it into their daily lives .
Approach
If I were to do this again , I would still pick the Mind Mapping tool , as I believe it is the
best selection for this specific problem , and I came out with a great conclusion .

Challenge A group of 30 teachers from a K-12 school are working together to identify a core issue in their class that can be addressed through design thinking , resulting in student improvement . This is professional learning time being used to set goals for the next Semester of school . Teachers already know their students and have spent a Semester with them . They now want to identify goals for students for the remainder of the year and plan actions they can take in the classroom to meet those goals . During the WHAT IS process , teachers are required to think deeply about students in their class , and reflect on their own teaching processes , in this way , they can then start to identify what needs exist within their classroom , and through WHAT IF , WHAT WOWS and WHAT WORKS , develop innovative classroom practices to engage students .
Selection The tool for teachers to use is Mind Mapping , specifically a Root Cause Tree Diagram .
EFFECTS
CORE PROBLEM
ROOT CAUSES
This link explains a root cause analysis .
https://www.changemakers.com/youthventure/resources/rootcause
This tool was selected for the challenge as it will allow the teachers to explore what they already know , categorise the information and challenge assumptions about what happens in their classroom more effectively than through open discussion . The tool guides teachers to ask what is happening and why , starting with identifying a Core Problem , the teachers are asked to explore why this is a problem through Root Causes , and then what are the Effects of the problem , or what do they see happening as a result of the problem . As the tree can have endless roots and endless branches , they can dig deep into the core problem and continue adding levels of detail through branching . With teachers are working together , they can develop a broader set of insights into the classroom experience .
Application Teachers were divided into smaller groups according to classes they share .
WHAT I DID WHAT I OBSERVED
Before the Root Cause Tree Diagram they spent time sharing stories about the students from first Semester , along with hopes or concerns for students with an interviewer who does not teacher that group of students . The interviewer recorded these stories and helped the group to find a common thread in the discussion . The group further discussed the common threads before agreeing on a CORE PROBLEM to be addressed .
I observed that this was very easy for those teachers with more challenging classes as the problems to be addressed were more obvious . However , there were two groups who found it more difficult to find a core problem as they had a very successful Semester of learning and had no obvious issues to address , we changed the language from PROBLEM to CHALLENGE , and the teachers thinking moved from what was the problem with students , to what can teachers do to make learning more exciting .
Once the Core Problem / Challenge was identified each group wrote down the ROOT CAUSES , what is happening that creates this problem . In this part of the conversation they are encouraged to list everything that comes to mind , and to branch the root causes where appropriate i.e. to find where there are deeper root causes with more than one action or behaviour creating the problem .
This generates a lot of discussion , as the teachers were able to clearly identify what is happening to cause problems to arise . It was useful to encourage them to look through different lenses : personally , socially , family , policy , governance , environment , community to encourage broad thinking .
Finally , in the Root Cause Tree Diagram the teachers were asked to look above the Core Problem / Challenge and find the EFFECTS , meaning what is the result of this problem , or what symptoms do we see in student behaviour , engagement and results . Again , the tree diagram allows the teachers to branch their ideas as they see further into the possible consequences of not addressing this problem .
At this step , teachers were able to really find what matters to them and the students , and they spent more time talking about key concerns about the effects on student learning and understanding .
After completing the Root Cause Tree Diagram in the WHAT IS phase , they moved into WHAT IF , particularly bouncing off the conversation around EFFECTS and imagining what their students might achieve in Semester 2 .
INSIGHT
INSIGHT REFLECTION
The most insightful lesson I observed while working with teachers was the importance of the language used to introduce the Root Cause Tree Diagram as a tool and to encourage deeper thinking about their classroom . Initially , those teachers with more difficult classroom behaviours or learning difficulties found it very easy to discuss problems while those with students who were ‘ easier ’ to teach had less to discuss in the initial stages .
At this point , the language got in the way . CORE PROBLEM sounded like there was something wrong , however , it was intended to point to what was happening in the classroom that made learning for understanding difficult .
Teachers liked talking about problems . Conversation started to become about other people and less about the classroom .
I also had to put some framework around the discussion for the Root Causes , so that rather than assigning blame , teachers were able to think more deeply about why problems exist , taking the idea of local , national and global as a framework for thinking about why problems exist .
I found this tool helped extensively in guiding discussion and recording of information . Previously when using brainstorming and mind mapping exercises I have seen that discussion quickly and easily goes off on a tangent , with initial and obvious points discussed before dissolving into storytelling and conversation .
By giving teachers a chance to tell their stories to a neutral person first , the rest of the mind mapping exercise was more productive . The tool kept teachers focused on key concepts and resulted in a richer and deeper discussion about their own understanding of the learning process and the students they teach .
Approach I would use the Root Cause Tree Diagram again as it was so successful in guiding discussion and bring out about more insightful discussion and observations from teachers . In the future , I will look at the language used , and either change it on the printed diagram , or provide some definition around the language used so that there is less initial confusion about the tool .
If I were to do a similar activity with the same group of teachers I would use a different tool to help provide the data around WHAT IS , as I believe that little new knowledge would be gained by repeating this particular tool . The Root Cause Tree Diagram had potential to become an increasingly negative conversation with blame and frustration of the teachers being discussed , rather than the needs of students for advancing learning . I would try something like the “ Well Being North Star ” ( explained here : http://gamestorming.com/uncategorized/wellbeing-north-star/ ) as it would focus on positive outcomes and is good for analysing any situation . Briefly , the Well Being North Star identifies a main topic for conversation in the centre , then the points of the star have sub - topics to guide the conversation .

the left side brain where there is art and creativity . It is defined as a tool that is looking
for the patterns and insights in the large quantity of data that is being collected . The
goal of using mind maps is to establish the criteria for the “ What if ” ? question in the idea
generation phase . It is a tool that enables transition from identifying the problem or the
opportunity to exploring various means to getting the solutions .
The mind Mapping is an explorative , intuitive and highly engaging tool and it benefits
users largely as it connects pieces of related information , it enables inclusion of various
role players or stakeholders . The branching as aspect of the mind mapping , as all
branches emanate from the centre where the core is , denote the linkages , reporting
lines and indicate which aspects are precedent over others .
Mind maps are ideal when used in a workshop setup of 10 to 50 people , to gather
differing and diverse opinions about a thing a subject or a vision of the organisation
even the perceptions of the public . It is essential that total number of participants give
contribution of their contribution , then those contribution be cluster into homogeneous/
similar characteristics items and form a common theme , that will enable a solution that
will be best fit .
For instance , the mind maps can be utilised when there is assessment of a product or
service . Then we gather the stakeholders , thus customers and each writes the
perceptions they have about an item or business product and what the public perception
of the business product is . Expectation is there will be good comments and negative
comments and the outliers who come from an extreme end . All these participants
opinions are critical and highly important .
I used the mind mapping when we were introducing an educational program ( course )
and we had to first hear whether we are still relevant and wanted by the stakeholders ,
including utilisation of our programs . So we invited all our stakeholders in one room on a
workshop . We described our vision that we are working on a new program but before it
takes off we wish to ascertain the view of the public about the institution . The mind
maps helped a lot as the opinions were highly individualistic and independent yet very
intuitive and explorative . We will use the mind maps and other tools such as
visualisation and running pilots to test on smaller grouping before we scale up the next
time there is a new project to implement .
Out of using the mind maps we modified the original design to what the stakeholders
had expressed as their need and have made high sales of highly demanded program .
As a result , design thinking is the future especially using the relevant tools to relevant
problems .

I´m an a accountant in a huge oil company in México , every mornig in the lady´s bathrooms i hear the same complaints about were unable to complete their make up , to stylish their hair , some of them have other kind of problems like , when their menstrual anticipates and do nt have time to go at the pharmacy store , and need to be in a meeting , i also saw how another co - workertried to cover the rip of her skirt unsuccessfully , that´s when it hit me an idea on how to improve the situation using design thinking .
After been talking with a group of women about this kind of problem , we design a prototype where we can put a set of basic things as woman we might need , with personal cleaning items , such as toothbrushes , thoothpaste , sanitary napkins , perfumes , needle and thread , buttons , cotton swabs , hand and hair cream , hair spray , even medicines and we posted a sign with some rules regarding the use of the products . We called it " The lady box "
This rules where quit simple :
If you take something from the lady box you must replace it
Its important that you take only what you need
Respect and ccooperation between us make us better
Do not steal any item
After two weeks a meeting was held to talk about the women in the apartment felt with " The Lady Box " some of the girls in the office wanted to add other items like lipstick and blush , and they decided that they woul make a donation to improve the box , there were some complaints from some woman who did not follow the rules , some said that its was better then to make a penalty of contribution in money that was equivalent to the articule that had taken , as well as to replace the articule , otherwise would not be entitled to use again any articule , in order to this be fullfilled , all the woman decided that it was necessary to take care of ourselves and learn to take care of what there was to be able to enjoy the box .
In a moth the women in the office had followed the rules , so they began to have improvements in their work performance because they felt less stress in the morning and confident that they have the " Lady Box " as a back up , the idea was a success not only for the women´s bathroom in my apartment , but it was spred in the others , even in the men´s bathroom they made their own version .

Working in the B2B food industry , there are many benefits that can be incorporated in food products , like for example a higher amount of fibers , less sugar , less fat , no gluten and less salt . The challenge is however if consumers are able to connect those benefits to their specific diet or health issue and in which products do they look for those benefits . Developing a solution is a time and resource consuming process . Heading the Marketing and Innovation area , it was relevant for me to understand where to focus on our efforts , and thus to decide where we saw the biggest potential for in the future . Selection The tool that I decided to apply was the mind mapping tool explained in module 3 of the course , in order to identify our insights from this research and agree on product design criteria . The tool seemed most appropriate for insight generation , making sure we took our different viewpoints , experiences and information from the research into consideration and coming up with insights , followed by criteria we would need to validate and consider in a later product development phase . Application We started tackling this issue with an ethnographic study , accompanying 10 persons with different health issues and diets . We had a set of two persons per ‘ disease ’ , like diabetes , heart health issues , overweight , gluten intolerance and two persons without any health issues but striving for a healthy lifestyle . We also interviewed a supermarket floor manager , a domestic employee , a nutritionist and a sports instructor , persons who observe , prepare or advise others on their diets and lifestyles . When applying the mind mapping tool , I gathered about 9 people , those in my marketing team , innovation colleagues and the portfolio management team , most closely involved in this research project . We had the research agency and the market research team explain to us how the research was conducted , share photographs of the consumers , and an exercise they did with them ; consumers had to empty their kitchen cupboards and putting what they perceived to be healthy items on one side of the table and unhealthy items on the other side of the table . They were also accompanied doing their daily food shopping routine and questioned about their decision - making process . We also looked at market data , the amount of population affected by certain diseases , products already available in the market , etc . We gathered our observations and insights in that group . Key Insights We realized that consumers follow a specific , more controlled diet , when the problem becomes unbearable , e.g. when they are about to lose a toe or are suffering from pain , but afterwards they tend to return to their unhealthy habits . Consumers with allergies like gluten intolerance are often self - diagnosed and not well informed on what they should and should n’t eat , leading us to believe that a large portion is not truly gluten intolerant but belief it to be the case . Consumers are often badly informed on what type of food should be consumed to support a healthy lifestyle but are interested in healthier solutions in certain food categories . By using the tool we were all aligned on the available information , but also on how to interpret the information , the insights it gave us and how it connected to our own product development process . It helped us stay focused for several hours on the situation in understanding the consumer ’s viewpoint and challenge , putting the consumer and by that also our customers at the center of the discussion , rather than jumping to conclusions .
Approach :
Being concerned that colleagues not close to the research or with a Marketing mindset might disturb the process , I invited like - minded colleagues to that process from more or less one and the same part of the organization , being supportive of the project to the meeting . In hindsight and taking the learnings from this course into consideration , it was a great opportunity to gain buy - in from other stakeholders in the organization , involving them in the process . We also did discuss with the whole group , rather than in sub - groups . To foster a broader generation of design criteria in the end , a split- up in subgroups what have taken more time , but been supportive for a richer result .

I am currently part of a startup that is participating in a national prospective startup competition and working with my team members to continuously develop our business model . Our startup focused on creating a children ’s product . The motivation behind this was that an important population of customers that never die out are parents . Many parents are always on the search to find something beneficial for their child , such as nutritious foods and books . Our team knew that the most important factor was that any children 's product had to be compelling for guardians to purchase for any chance of success . As a result , in order to create such a product , our team knew the first step was to understand our target market : the parents .
Selection
Our team resorted to storytelling as an important tool for our business , as our product was to address the concerns that parents faced with their children . Storytelling is a tool that gives personal insight into one ’s life , and the overlaps in a population ’s individual lives is a common source of inspiration for the invention of a solution . Parents , in particular , have many worries and topics to discuss regarding their children . They are eager to try out solutions if they find it persuasive enough to try . Using the tool of storytelling from our target market , our team hoped to identify an overlapping issue that many parents share and to inspire the development phase of our product .
Application
First , our team started with the basic step of researching previous information already shared on the internet . This included important stages children go through and skills that children develop during these stages . Most importantly , the research revolved around the common concerns or problems that parents face so our team could understand a general grasp of their shared / individual stories . As a result , our team narrowed our focus on the creativity skills children develop , specifically doodling , and then began a more hands - on utilization of the storytelling tool through surveys with parents . We collected a total of over 50 + survey responses in a few days and were able to gain our own data on the stories and insights parents had with the concerns we asked them about .
Insight
Interestingly , the data did not align with our initial expectations of having large interest in the issues our potential product would address . Many parents commented that issues of their children doodling did not apply to their lives and did not find such products compelling to purchase . Despite this , the stories of the parents were an opportunity to learn their actual opinions on the matters our team identified . Through this moment of trial and error , this suggested to our team that our approach of narrowing down concerns to one topic of doodling was a poor route . It limited our perception to one topic , while it would have been better to set a
general topic for parents and give them the role of narrowing their concerns down through storytelling . Simply put , a more broad start was needed for an effective design thinking process .
Approach
Despite this result of using the storytelling tool , this motivated our team to continue to use it . The fact that this tool yielded informative results was proof that it was effective and helpful to our developing business . Our team is continuing to use this tool through one on one interviews with parents to have a more in depth understanding of their concerns and opinions on our startup ’s direction for our product through their own stories . This course made me view our target market ’s results in a new light , as before , I would have viewed the many unaligning responses as discouraging and see our business model as hopeless . However , the existence of many other tools and ability to reuse tools in a more effective way inspires our team to look for new approaches to grow our business model .

Visualization or Visual Tool
Challenge & Selection
My current state is an Executive in HR Team of a company occupying approximately 120 employees .
The challenge faced is to identify ways to create a better working environment for our employees . Thus , the first step is to try to put ourselves into our boots . How ? Visualization or Visual Tool is a great alternative that could create multiple new ideas . The reason why I have chosen this design tool is due to the fact that in prior efforts for improving employee ’s satisfaction at work , there was a group - thinking issue among our Team .
Application
The basic idea consists of picking a diversified sample from our current employees , from Junior Analysts and Interns to Department Directors , and ask them to describe , draw , imagine or use any way they want , their ideal change for offices in order to improve their mood and their working efficiency .
From 16 employees chosen , there were created 4 small groups there were asked to discuss their ideas for 45 ’ , on the same time in different meeting rooms , and after that to meet all together to another meeting room and share their ideas and their proposals to the HR Team .
Insight & Approach
The results were exceptional . The employees join to these meetings were thrilled with this entertaining and creative activity . For our Department , our two basic goals were accomplished . Firstly , it was an approach that led to the creation of a more objective and diversified sample of ideas , that represents not only the HR Team , but the company as a whole . Secondly , it was a tool to improve collaboration via an awarding and brainstorming session that would give them ownership of the final result as well as a small break from their daily routine .

The reason why I have chosen this design tool is due to the fact that in prior efforts for improving employee ’s satisfaction at work , there was a group - thinking issue among our Team .
Application
The basic idea consists of picking a diversified sample from our current employees , from Junior Analysts and Interns to Department Directors , and ask them to describe , draw , imagine or use any way they want , their ideal change for offices in order to improve their mood and their working efficiency .
From 16 employees chosen , there were created 4 small groups there were asked to discuss their ideas for 45 ’ , on the same time in different meeting rooms , and after that to meet all together to another meeting room and share their ideas and their proposals to the HR Team .
Insight & Approach
The results were exceptional . The employees join to these meetings were thrilled with this entertaining and creative activity . For our Department , our two basic goals were accomplished . Firstly , it was an approach that led to the creation of a more objective and diversified sample of ideas , that represents not only the HR Team , but the company as a whole . Secondly , it was a tool to improve collaboration via an awarding and brainstorming session that would give them ownership of the final result as well as a small break from their daily routine .

Challenge I run an Education - Technology company with the focus of teaching Robotics to children . Even though learning Robotics from a young age is considered as a great add - on skillset around the world , our challenge was to figure out whether a monthly subscription based approach ( sending one activity box per month with all the robotic components and step by step instruction booklet ) is the right way to reach out to our customers . Selection We started with the brainstorming technique , and bounced off our idea with various possible stakeholders ( parents , children , grandparents , teachers etc ) . Based on this exercise , we made some assumptions . As I had left my corporate career to start this venture , my opportunity cost was huge . We picked up the Learning launch tool to test our assumptions in the real world . The intent was to understand , early - on , weather our assumptions of going ahead with a monthly subscription based robotics learning program was taking us in the right direction or not . Application The first phase of our Learning Launch was to implement a six month subscription based Robotics learning program through our website . We used various marketing channels to reach out to potential customers ( Google adwords , Social media marketing , workshops in schools and corporates ) . The next step in our Learning launch phase was data gathering . We were ready for both the confirming and disconfirming facts to come up . We were ready for the surprizes . We interacted with all the children as well as the parents who subscribed to the Robotics program , and tried to understand what they liked and the scope of improvement of the program . Insight We gathered that :
1 . While our customers were really happy with the content and a subscription based
model , they wanted to achieve the end goal ( basic introduction / knowledge of robotics ) faster . A six - month commitment was perceived to be too long .
2 . Learning Robotics is one of the many other things ( swimming , music , sports etc )
that the children were engaged in along with their regular school academics .
3 . There were children who wanted to explore their interest in Robotics , but were
shying away from a six month long commitment .
4 . Once in every four - months children have assessments in schools ( exams ) and
parents were hesitant to place an order during the overlapping months .
From our learning launch experiment we learnt : Short - term commitment = More comfort for Children . Hence , for our next Learning Launch we pivoted to a 3 month subscription based Robotics learning program . We divided our robotics learning program into two programs :
1 ) Junior Robotics Learning Program ( Duration 3 months ) 2 ) Senior Robotics Learning Program ( Duration 3 months )
This helped in the following ways :
1 . Desired flexibility for the parents / children to choose a shorter ( 3 month )
program ,
2 . To choose the appropriate level ( based on child ’s existing knowledge of
Robotics ) ,
Approach As Michael Radermacher said in Week 4 of our course : ‘ A learning launch is not a failure so long as you learn something ’ The Learning Launch tool was a perfect mechanism for us as we had to iterate on the business model at a fast pace . We gained tremendous insights from our customers after applying the Learning Launch mechanism . The future program should continue to gather feedback and incorporate the same .

Challenge & Selection
A great story has risk a to the storyteller , a risk in the story that has to be resolved for the audience , and risk that the story might not work . Over sanitized stories , like stories by committee , often become crappy stories .
Sometimes organizations fear talking about challenges they face ; they fear being vulnerable , as I mentioned . Yet , stories without challenges are not stories at all . Challenges create tension and risk that have to be resolved for the audience that ’s part of great storytelling and taking your audience on an emotional journey . Your audience feels risk there is no getting around it . Storytelling is how you acknowledge it and show your audience how to resolve it . Today , companies need to be more afraid of not risking anything . Now that ’s scary . Storytelling allowed people to make sense of the world and derive deeper meaning from their lives since the beginning of human history . The techniques and delivery methods of good storytelling may have changed since then , but the power of storytelling to move us and provoke a deeper sense of connection between us has stayed consistent . As a writer , developing your storytelling skills and learning how to spin your own experiences into a story takes practice , but there are tried and true methods of improving your craft .
Application
Storytelling is one of the ancient art forms of communication . Organizational Storytelling is one of the latest management trends , and there has been an increased rise in storytelling research as well as consultation . The application of storytelling lends itself to the study of the latest research in this area . There has been a vast number of studies documenting organizational stories as well as vouching about the effectiveness of storytelling . Studies in organizational stories date back to the early 1980s . Subsequent reviews have tried to analyze or categorize organizational stories . This paper focused more on the application of stories in organizations from a practical point of view . The objective of the paper was to understand the current use of stories in the workplace and recommend its use according to Indian work settings . This paper attempted to review the latest
research on organizational storytelling with suggestions to its application in Indian organizations .
Inside & Approach
Storytelling is a powerful tool that great leaders use to motivate the masses and masterful writers harness to create classic literature . If you ’re just getting started writing and telling stories , here are some storytelling tips that can help you strengthen your narratives and engage your audience
These are the approaches
1 . A profile . Find the people behind a story , the characters driving the issue . You
can profile not just a person , but a place , an event , even a building .
2 . Explanatory piece . Show readers why something happen or how something
functions .
3 . Issues and trend stories . Ask yourself if there is a larger picture to explore .
Trends are not exclusively related to culture or lifestyle ; think crime or economy .
4 . Investigative . Look into wrongdoing , “ follow the money , ” analyze power
struggles , and make use of available documents .
5 . Narrative . A story with a character , scenes , and tension . 6 . Descriptive / Day in the life . The alternative to a narrative , focusing on a
particular moment , such as a ride - along with the police , a visit to the new museum .
7 . Voices or perspective story . Have people tell a story in a unique way : Q&A ,
roundtable discussion , a rail of quotes , or vignettes .
8 . Visual story . Photographs , graphics or illustrations might be the best ways to tell
some stories .

Challenge and Selection
I work at the Center of Excellence ( CoE ) area , in the area I have as a function the redesign of transversal processes in the company . We were assigned to redesign the Business Model , which included providing salespeople with an automated Action Model tool . When we were carrying out the information gathering , we realized that it was a very large process and that it covered several functionalities , so we decided to use the Mind Mapping tool , which would allow us to better understand this new topic , analyze the problems that are currently in the Model , its parts and roots , looking for possible solutions , structuring a project in which we could give sequences and priorities , in addition to giving wings to our creativity .
Application
In the center of a board , we started with the central theme , that was easy to determine , since it was the one assigned to us , Business Model . Then we defined the fronts of the business model as a team , initially we identified 13 , but in the organization of ideas and keywords , we realized that there were only 4 key fronts , Data , fix the information that was going to feed the model , Mobilization , if We were going to give them an automated tool , we had to provide to the sellers , Tablets , to take this application with them everywhere , Communication channel , another need that commercials had , count with a formal communication , and finally the Choice of the provider , given that the company could not develop an application of such magnitude .
After having the 4 clear fronts in our Mind Mapping we began to identify the activities that were carried out and to propose complementary ideas of how it could be the best way to improve and redesign each front , and we created connections between the ideas .
Insight
Mind Mapping allowed us to realize things like :
On the Data front , we complemented the Mind Mapping tool with a Value Stream Mapping ( VSM ) , which allowed us to identify the wastes in the processes , with both tools captured on the board and the ideas generated as a team we were able to propose automation reporting via ETL .
On the Mobilization front , we realized that it was necessary not only to include the Business Model application but also the others that a seller might require at the time of sale .
In the Communication Channel , we realized that we could use Teams , a tool that the company already had and to which everyone had access , but nobody used , because they did not know how to use it , it was just a training theme for the commercial force .
In the choosing supplier , we realized that we could use an ally and that the methodology that we needed them to use was an agile methodology , which would allow us to have faster and quality deliverables .
Starting from a central axis , Mind Mapping allowed us to have an overview of the problem , organize the ideas , and provide a solution not only to the Business Model but to everything that this impacted , giving the company a redesign of the process it needed .
Approach
I think that in Mind Mapping , we could have added some drawings that describe the ideas expressed and more colors , complement this tool with Visualization , which allows a better understanding of what is being done and the ideas that are being proposed . According to González - Espejo , incorporating visualization as a practice benefits not only users , by clarifying ideas , but also those who practice it , since “ it improves skills such as empathy , leadership , communication , teamwork , creativity and problem solving ” .

Elimination of Vehicle Field Failures
Challenge
I am working in product development team for design and development of defense vehicles . These
vehicles are designed and manufactured keeping in mind the stringent and challenging conditions armed
forces have to operate in . We have supplied 255 numbers of 8x8 vehicles to Indian Army used for
carrying ammunition and other logistic services . The vehicles are in service and operating in different
parts of northern India for past one year . Recently , we got few cases of tire burst in some of these field
vehicles . This is a safety critical issue which had to be resolved at the earliest for smooth operation of
these vehicles and to avoid such failures in the future .
Selection
This was the case where our team had to find out the root cause of these failures and to provide a
permanent solution for the same . But before implementation of the solution in all 255 numbers of field
vehicles , we had to be sure of what we are proposing will be effective and will put an end to these
failures . And what better way to test our solution then learning launch tool . We used this tool to test
our assumptions and analysis of the problem .
Application
We did two pilot runs to arrive at a solution to the problem which can be implemented in the field
vehicles . We formed a cross functional team for root cause analysis of the problem which included
members from design , quality , manufacturing and service teams and also members from tire supplying
firm . This vehicle was equipped with Central Tire Inflation System ( CTIS ) which helps in maintaining and
changing the tire pressure from the cabin itself based on the vehicle payload and operating terrain . After
analysis of the vehicles in which tire burst cases were seen , our team identified running of vehicles with
under pressurized tires was the root cause and one of the CTIS braided hose which was supplying the air
to tires from the compressor was having leakage issue . For our first pilot run we modified the design of
the braided hose where we used the improved material for the O ring which was getting damaged under
extreme heat conditions and resulting in leakage from the joint . We ordered eight numbers of these
improved braided hoses for trial at our technical center proving grounds . The vehicle was fitted with
these improved hoses and was taken for highway trials . After completing four thousand kilometers we
found that O rings got damaged and resulted in air leakage from the front interface of the braided hose .
For our second pilot run , we redesigned our braided hose and this time we eliminated O ring itself from
the design and modified hose interface in such a way that it did n’t require O ring for sealing of the joint .
We ordered these improved hoses again for fitment trial in the vehicle and again performed the
highway trials . This time we did n’t find leakage at any point of time during trial duration .
Insight
The use of learning launch tool gave us assurance that , the solution we identified were effective in
arresting the air leakage from the tires and one , which can be implemented in the field vehicles to avoid
any further failures . Also it showed us the assumptions made during first design modification were not
correct , which we got it correct during our second modification . If we had gone directly for field
implementation without any learning launch , then we would have failed miserably and this would have
resulted in wastage of money and time along with damage to firm ’s reputation . We successfully
implemented the second design in the field and eliminated the air leakage issue in vehicles which was
giving rise to tire burst cases .
Approach
The experience gained from the two learning launches were very insightful and seeing the effectiveness
of the solution we horizontally deployed this design modification in other vehicle platforms like 6x6 ,
10x10 and 12x12 where the Central Tire Inflation System is being used . Also we understood the
importance of a pilot run of any new design concept before taking it for large scale implementation . This
is very much required to reduce the chances of failure and also the wastage of resources .

any further failures . Also it showed us the assumptions made during first design modification were not
correct , which we got it correct during our second modification . If we had gone directly for field
implementation without any learning launch , then we would have failed miserably and this would have
resulted in wastage of money and time along with damage to firm ’s reputation . We successfully
implemented the second design in the field and eliminated the air leakage issue in vehicles which was
giving rise to tire burst cases .
Approach
The experience gained from the two learning launches were very insightful and seeing the effectiveness
of the solution we horizontally deployed this design modification in other vehicle platforms like 6x6 ,
10x10 and 12x12 where the Central Tire Inflation System is being used . Also we understood the
importance of a pilot run of any new design concept before taking it for large scale implementation . This
is very much required to reduce the chances of failure and also the wastage of resources .

It all started years back when a colleague of mine shared with me his dilemma about choosing between two fundamentally different career opportunities . The classic “ Marwa , would you have a minute for me ? ” in the office right after the first coffee in the morning . What initially sprang to my mind to ask him was : “ What is it that you ’d expect from what ’s left of your business life ? ”
He replied that he had never thought about that in detail . I continued : “ What do you think you ’re really good at ? ” This is a question that is on the no - go list in today ’s formal job interviews as much as “ What do you think you ’re really bad at ? ” because there ca n’t be an honest answer . I got trained on that 16 years ago already in my hiring certification classes at November . However , it is totally OK between two friends in a secluded setting . His answer struck me as I had a totally different picture of him . At this point it became clear to me that his situation and decision process would require some formalization and visualization . And this is how I started to use mind mapping .
Application
I start with general ideas and get more and more specific as my idea develops . Structure does not develop in my head . Information does . That means that I must put down my information somewhere and structure it there . Linear representation is difficult to structure . Hence , a mind map comes in handy : I can see things at a glance and add topics where I see a gap .
While developing the method , I used a mind map to dump my thoughts and experiences in . After a while , these topics could be organized into clusters , which then mercilessly pointed out to me what was missing . I literally saw it ! In short : Information creates clusters , shows missing information and promotes further clustering . A very creative flow . Putting things in a meaningful order requires a lot of shuffling around of information and re - clustering . Try to do that in a flowing text and you know why I always choose to use a mind map .
When the mind map was finally as complete as I wanted it to be , the question was : How to present it to the target audience ? How can a story unfold in the eyes of the beholder ? Going through this map is not a linear process . While you answer one question in the map , another answer to an unrelated question on the other side of the map might just pop up in your mind . Because you always see the open spots , you can easily jump left and right , top and bottom and still stick to a structure .
Collaboration is the key element of my method . Collaboration works perfectly fine when face to face over a glass of wine . But this is a process that will never conclude , as previously noted . Thus , remote collaboration is a smart way to interact . Set the preferences for the map to notify when changes are applied and trigger off a constant flow of remote interaction , which will continuously fine tune the map .
Finally : Seeing and listening closely are important while working on such an intimate topic , but you need to go one step further and truly capture the meaning . A mind map will help you to see things in context and see how they develop and relate to each other . This is key for being able to open and challenge , respectively . When providing feedback , adding visuals to indicate feelings about a certain topic , emphasizing certain elements through formatting and showing consent or dissent by voting , commenting and , most of all , asking ( Carl Rogers ) are strong tools to drill deeper into the matter and look behind the statements being made . You are able to actually “ describe ” digital information ( text , content ) with analog elements ( icons , formatting , position , relation ) to create a picture in the mind of the collaborators that they can even talk about without the map in sight .
Insight & Approach
A mind map is a means to visually represent ideas and their relationship to one another . It ’s a brainstorming tool frequently used in education , the business world , and the entertainment industry – often in collaborative projects .
There are times in your life when you need to make significant decisions about how to continue in your business and/or personal life . At these points , it ’s necessary that you establish a clear vision about certain life facts . This process must be honest and complete .
In my experience , mind map and the method behind it helped me a lot during my journey of self - evaluation by compiling relevant information and presenting these facts in a comprehensive format to a friend for input .

STREET_ADDRESS - A full or partial street address that is associated with the student, such as their home address. | Challenge : I work in an IT company wherein I need to have regular communications with the business stakeholders . Whenever a new feature is to be introduced to the business team there was a gap in communicating the functionality of the new feature between the tech teams and the business teams , hence a common line of understanding was needed . Selection : After watching the design thinking course I felt that I had found the solution for this problem . The design thinking tool of visualisation was the perfect tool to bridge in the knowledge and communication gap between tech and business teams and come up with a common line of understanding . Application : We started using the Visualisation tool by coming up with block diagrams for the entire project as well as for each new feature developed by the tech teams . We would then integrate this new block into the existing block diagram of the project and using arrows and notes would represent the utility of the new functionality and how it would benefit the business team . Insight : We started to notice the benefits of using the Visualisation tool from the first week itself . The business team had a concise understanding of where exactly the new feature fit into the existing project and how it benefits them . There was significant time saved in back and forth communications between the two teams thereby significantly increasing the productivity of both the teams . Approach : We plan to continue using the Visualisation tool due to the benefits we are getting from this . We also plan to integrate this approach along with tools such as mind mapping so that we are able to think of new approaches while thinking about new features itself . But overall the Visualisation tool has really helped in effective business communications and increasing the productivity of our teams .

Challenge & Selection
Visualization is a tool that I commonly use as it provides a variety of benefits for both individual and collective problem solving .
As a strategy consultant , I often work with senior management that are very numbers - driven and place emphasis on macro - economic factors such as interest rates and overall market developments . Using visualization has two key benefits with regards to this target group . First , it enables me to empathize with the managers and display very complex insights with visual tools such as charts , processes , driver trees etc . which enables them to absorb a lot of information in short time which is crucial given their packed schedules .
The second benefit , where I would like to focus on , is the ability of using visualization to spur the creativity of senior executives and develop creative solutions together . Very often , the focus on macro trends and numbers does not cater for the volatility in today 's business . Nowadays , a deep understanding of customers ' needs and an effectual logic is more important than data - driven analysis . Using visualization cultivates using the right side of the brain and allows the managers to empathize and truly understand hidden customer needs and develop tangible solutions for the existing problems .
Application
Usually , I start the process by drawing the current customer journey of the problem domain . In order to lay out the customer journey , I will combine ethnographic research methods such as observation and ethnographic interviews with secondary research sources such as our consulting firm- internal knowledge and insights from the client . Next , I will add the relevant stakeholders that are involved in the process steps and lay out the various functional jobs to be done and emotional needs the customer has along the customer journey . Based on first insights , I will also complement the initial customer pain points we have identified along the journey in order to discuss them with managers and start a discussion on the four questions " What is ? " , " What if ? " , " What wows ? " and " What works ? " .
However , the visualization does not stop there . Throughout the whole process , visualization is key in order to present ideas , share insights and develop solutions . Especially in the phases " What if ? " and " What wows ? " , visualization is essential in order to drive the solution finding process . I use visualization in brainstorming sessions with visual props such as nudge cards and stickers to cluster and rate ideas . In concept development , sketching is crucial to present initial ideas so that other participants understand one 's thinking and can add valuable input to the initial ideas . In later stages , very simple prototyping can enhance product development with rapid learning and save costs . Rather than investing heavily in expensive " real " prototypes , we often use mock - ups in order to see how potential users react to the idea . This very tangible visualization has proofed to be a very valuable part of every development process .
Insight & Approach
Visualization is a crucial part throughout the whole design thinking process . It enables to present insights and ideas in a tangible way , fosters individual and collaborative creativity and enhances cooperation among individuals . I have learned that it is important to give enough freedom and flexibility in the process . Very often , I have observed that people that are not familiar with this process are rushing towards solutions and try to be as efficient as possible . However , in order to solve the wicked problems that are best suited for design thinking , it is important to give enough freedom and bring together different perspectives from different backgrounds . Only then it is possible to make use of the tools such as visualization among others . Even though the visualization does not have to be perfect , it is important to keep in mind that the visualization is only a representation of the whole underlying process . Therefore , any shortcuts in the analysis or problem solving will be seen in insufficient visual representations .
Moreover , it is useful to use templates and provide structures in order to provide some guidance to the individuals involved in the process . Otherwise , people might feel lost and overwhelmed in the process , especially when they are not familiar with the methodology and tools . By using templates and structures , the flexibility and creativity can also be channeled in a more efficient manner which takes the realities in the business world regarding responsibilities and time pressure into account .
In a nutshell , I can confidently say , that using design thinking and especially visualization is very helpful for dealing with senior executives and is not limited to the obvious " creative roles " within the company . Visualization helps executives to grasp crucial information in short time , understand and empathize with users and customers which grounds their thinking and enables them to combine their " macro " and strategic thinking with the everyday life of customers and their hidden needs for better products and services .
I would always use visualization as a key pillar for every design thinking process and also in other spheres . It is important to keep in mind that the chosen visualization tool has to fit the purpose of task and the stage in the process . Whereas in initial phases , it is important to share ideas and get a shared understanding , visualization in later stages has to support the validation of initial solutions and feed the feedback loop for more sophisticated solutions .

I am currently working as a Credit Analyst in a bank and one of my challenges is to convince the Credit Committee to lend to a potential borrower . Our team is presented client ’s information – principals ’ profile , main business activity , operations , financial performance and position , funding , and risks encountered . We use all these gathered information to build a story and to assess areas where the bank could be of most help to our clients .
Selection
An effective tool in relaying a potential borrower ’s financial performance , reflected in its financial statements , is interpreting it in a manner that it will be easily understood , thus conveyed through a story . Storytelling helps us translate data and build connection from borrowers to lenders ; from knowing our clients , to laying down facts , to reflecting , to formulating analysis , to coming up with a sound recommendation and decision .
Application
A credit proposal is our medium in storytelling . As numbers , ratios , and ratings may have different interpretations , a credit proposal is where the analysts and evaluators establish a common and objective ground . Our clients ’ data are presented in a narrative form stating significant information and events relative to their businesses . A credit proposal is a translation of clients ’ presented data in the bank ’s preferred language .
Insight
As we study the data provided by our clients , we learn their strengths and areas of improvement , thus putting the bank in a position that brings significant positive effects in our clients businesses – optimizing assets , minimizing expenses , and zeroing out losses .
For example , a client ’s data show that its warehouse is currently under a lease agreement and huge chunk of its revenues is allotted to the warehouse ’s rental fee . Analyzing the client ’s financial statements and translating it to a story that will be easily understood by the evaluators and approvers , it showed that the business is highly profitable and there could be better ways of managing their expenses – innovating its asset and expense management . Considering each and every aspect of the business , the credit committee approved a loan to bridge finance the purchase the said warehouse which would optimize their cash which will then benefit them in the long run .
Approach
I have learned that Storytelling approach is an effective tool in innovating and looking for ways on how to meet our clients ’ needs . We present stories of our clients through credit proposals and use them to build a connection between our clients and the bank ’s approvers .

Challenge
I am part of Insurance Business Unit ( BUs ) business development / proposals management team for operations / services of a repute organization . Similarly there are other 4 BUs managing their own business development / proposals teams separately and working in silos . Each team consists of around 12 – 15 members doing multiple activities . All teams support their respective sales teams and in turn work with other downstream teams for all the proposal inputs . Recently due to increasing demand from corporate for better sales & support and at reduced cost led to this team re - structuring project exercise . The project objective was to create a new Ways of working by re - structuring the overall teams to reduce overall support cost and enhance the sales & support . One base hypotheses to start was that ~60 % – 70 % overlap work between the teams hence the overall structure & cost can be optimized to that extent . We have key stakeholders in terms of 30 sales leads and 50 downstream leads .
Selection
We constituted a team of 10 with involvement from each BU and corporate . We agreed on the common project scope with defined timeline of 12 weeks to propose the detailed findings to the leadership for implementation . We wanted to test a Shared Service Business development model .
Corporate ensured that all the team members goes through the design thinking process and tools trainings . We agreed to proceed with Learning Launch tool to experiment with Shared Service model idea for couple of proposals to derive the percentage optimization possibility and sales / proposal development enhancement / faster .
Application
We conducted brief surveys with all the involved stakeholders . The team then shared their respective BUs business development ways of working and best practices . The surveys included process understanding , deliverables expectation , new model point of view and challenges . We documented all the details and with some mapping of addressing common activities , categorization of standards & customized activities and suggested additional requirements .
We then agreed on a common ways of model working and run for one proposal for each of the BUs . We delivered the proposals within 6 weeks . We again conducted a brief surveys with all key stakeholders on new model and the deliverables quality & timeliness . We discussed our own experiences , key learnings and documented .
We then analyzed our proposal response time taken , utilization of resources and quality .
Insights
Our analysis from AS IS ways of working , TO BE ways of working and stakeholders feedback from expectations and new mode experiment gave us some interesting new insights other than the hypotheses we started .
To address our primary hypotheses , our result shows that ~70 % activities are common / standards across the BUs but in new model environment we were able to achieve only ~30 % - 35 % optimization leveraging same tools & applications . One of the reason for this difference is BU - wise stakeholder working in silos with different expectation with no common platform / applications .
To address the difference a new ideas also evolved – introducing a common digital ( mobile enabled ) sharepoint with standard ways of working / content / best practices for easy access .
So we are now scaling the Shared Services model in phases and optimizing our teams .
Approach
Our next project is to test proposal management integrating with the Shared Service model . The primary hypotheses will be it will further optimize the effort and led to enhance sales and other stakeholders ’ experience . We plan to leverage combination of design thinking tools of Learning Launch and Visualization to test the tool and overall model . Visualization will be effective in creating how the tools GUI and interface with stakeholder while Learning Launch can be used to test the overall model experiment with the sales .

The challenge is to make the programs more profitable while at the same time keeping up the general quality of teaching and research of the university in order to stay competitive and meet the national assessment criteria . The student numbers are growing and more growth is expected . However , in the last two years , with new investments the costs have exceeded the revenues . Thus , a new structure by reducing the current resources has to be created by the next winter term , which is starting in about 8 months . Besides economic and quality aspects ( accreditation ) to be considered , the main challenge is to integrate all stakeholders : teaching staff as well as students evaluations , who are the end - consumers and the most important focus group . Moreover , the curricula are supposed to be more flexible adaptable to the different campuses in order to meet their own regional needs . Selection The academic program leaders in the past have already undergone steady , but minor optimizations of the curricula . Although being mostly designers and used to creative work environment themselves , time pressure often prevented to come up with new innovations . As the scrum master , I developed a plan together with the product owners defining sprints and the delivery team while using a kanban board . As tools , I decided to stick to use various mind - mapping tools to re - think the curricula in a free and creative way in order to avoid sticking on the already known and be able to come up with new ideas . Together with the product owners we decided whom to involve in the process and how to mix the various groups . Thus , employees were mixed in three different groups : the first one was theme related including all theory or communication design professors , the second one was vertically mixed including different positions and responsibilities by the teaching staff and the third group included members of the examination office and accreditation officers . The students were undertaken a different process with interviews regarding their needs and wishes . Data from previous student evaluation was taken into consideration as well .
Application At the beginning , applying mind - mapping , we exclusively focused on the content - side of the curricula and ignore economic boundaries or limits of resources : with sticky notes needed skills and the teaching goals behind each program were collected and grouped in each of the groups . In a seperate round knowledge , attitude and expectations of the students from a staff perspective were equally grouped . In a next step , these were compared to student interviews and insights from the evaluation data and adjusted accordingly . All this took place throughout the course of 2 month with a weekly 1 - day workshop with one of the groups . The next step was to merge these needs together with the set economic boundaries to create a minimum viable product . Starting with the outcomes of the delivery teams , the team of the product owners started mind - mapping various structures shaping the content . Two different curricula were created : both contain large amounts of shared modules , who could are adjustable to short - term needs or external co - operations , but start from different angles . Both curricula were undertaken calculations in order to meet the set economic goals . Insight By applying the mind mapping method , the team was able to think out of the box and identify new groupings and thus create a whole new structure . The approach was holistic and we started to think the product through from the bottom , especially leaving out the pressure to meet the expected economic goals at the beginning . Including insights on the expectations of the students , by revising evaluation data of alumni and current students , was very valuable . Approach Generally speaking , the mind mapping tool was the right one for the development of a new curriculum structure and the highly motivated team was happy to have a clear goal to work to towards . However , some workshop days had to be postponed due to the daily obligations of the team members . Also , the long period , was quite arduous to some of the team members .

A challenge faced while minimising a loss of burning the copper windings of many numbers of electric motors frequently in a fertilizer industries situated in our state . These fertilizer industries insurance was covered by the government body and they were also surprised to have the frequent claims registered by the fertiliser industries . Being from an engineering background I observed that the very fine dust particles are generated in a huge quantum as a processes going on in the factory and a frequent surges of electrical voltage were the only two factors leading to the claims loss to the electric motors . Selection I have gone through the various tools and decided to use Learning Launches to be applied for the above mentioned problem . Application First launch- After recognising the problems leading to the claims of the said machine we searched and thought of solutions . For the conditions pertaining to the factory being a process industry the alternate solutions were laid down . One being the installation of a fine particles dust collector . And the secondly providing of an un interrupted supply of an electrical power with the desired voltage for suppressing the surge of the electrical voltage to the electrical motors driving the machines of the fertilizer industry . Second Launch- During this I prepared the conceptual design of the equipment and discussed the same with the engineers in the respective fields and the solution to these two problems were finalised . One for dust collection the dust collector for collecting the fine particles generated by the unit using a principle of vacuum cleaner machine used for residential application . This principle was to be applied for the huge area i.e. volume hence the additional units which were ducts for handling air mixed with fine particles and for proper air flow rate , the fans were selected to suit the designed system . Insight By applying the learning launch tool , we identified our problems and designed the systems to rectify these sources leading to the claims arising to more and more / frequent extent . The solutions then were put forth of the both ends that is to an insurer a government body and an insured that is a Factory authority . After the deep discussions and matching and co - ordinating with the systems , rules and conditions the same were implemented . The output i.e. result of that was excellent and lead to minimisation of the losses to a great extent . This was not only the saving of loss of the claims as a national saving as well as the loss due to process held was saved to a lot extent . The incorporation of insight was particularly important at this stage , as launches come before a full rollout in the design thinking . .
Approach Being as a Mechanical Engineer and a technical background we ended in designing and selecting an appropriate machines and devices . But this was a success with the help taken from the various technocrats in the different areas like electrical , production and fluid power .

Mind Mapping
Challenge and Selection – Why I selected the tool :
I work for a large insurance company . Like most of the giant corporate world guided heavily by compliance , my organization is invested in linear thinking , streamlining processes and avoiding waste . As a result , there are very few small ideas . The management and business do n’t think through customer lens . The challenge was to have organizational mind shift from thinking too big and too long term return on investment to breaking it down to small incremental steps towards achieving big .
In a web redesign project , a large team was invested , a 3 year road map was defined and its first release was scheduled at 6 months . I used the mind mapping tool to generate ideas , to understand the customer ’s needs and generate general ideas to solve customer issues . Rather than giving the product development team a traditional list of requirements , I immersed them in the research data . Therefore , the early re - designs we created could be deployed and refined in the context of real user interaction .
Application : How I used it :
We used mind mapping in various different settings and gathered information / data , we
reviewed customer complaints through social media , collected internal customer care feedback and interviewed a group of end users . I will discuss one example of the mind mapping example that we used : “ interviewing a group of end users ”
We organized an offsite session in an informal setting consisting of people with good mix of business users , stakeholders and customers from different ethnic backgrounds and varying levels of tech savviness . We categorized all the users into three groups : “ Buy and Renew ” , “ understand and manage ” and “ Engage and access ” . Then within these categories we created 3 sub- groups per category consisting of people of different skill sets / understanding of health insurance business . The team had two important objectives . First was to focus on finding stay with the objective of what do you see as a pain full experience in customer journey using our website and second what are some of the new features and functionality we can implement to improve the digital customer experience . We reiterated that all ideas are good . Each group was given a white board to either list or create a visual of new ideas . We also asked them to rank the ideas we asked them to rank high to low importance to them .
We gave them 30 mins to discuss and whiteboard the information . Then we have each group report out on their ideas while pointing to the mark - ups on their White boards . After the session , we reviewed all the white board information and created a visual of consolidated Ideas the first 20 ideas with the highest rank were taken to next level of analysis .
Insight and Feedback - what I learned :
What I have learned from conducting the mind mapping exercise is that it is very important to have a mix of group to get complete set of ideas . There were some very significant ideas that were generated and ranked high that were not listed in initial backlog that the team had put together prior to the exercise . We had to keep reminding the team of the objective and insights any deviation should be corrected and brought back to the theme . The most important was to be very approachable for all ideas and make the group feel more engaged . In the course of this exercise we had to lot of challenging questions from our business and stake holders on why we need this exercise as there is already an existing requirement / backlog from them and what would be the output and would they see any of these implemented . Learning was to include the mind mapping exercise as a beginning of any project we implement for digital strategy . I also feel we need to add more visualization tools have a person from each group draw the ideas out / provide a visual designer to the team make it more visual interactive and fun .

### Input: The Tool :
Mind Mapping
Challenge and Selection – Why I selected the tool :
I work for a large insurance company . Like most of the giant corporate world guided heavily by compliance , my organization is invested in linear thinking , streamlining processes and avoiding waste . As a result , there are very few small ideas . The management and business do n’t think through customer lens . The challenge was to have organizational mind shift from thinking too big and too long term return on investment to breaking it down to small incremental steps towards achieving big .
In a web redesign project , a large team was invested , a 3 year road map was defined and its first release was scheduled at 6 months . I used the mind mapping tool to generate ideas , to understand the customer ’s needs and generate general ideas to solve customer issues . Rather than giving the product development team a traditional list of requirements , I immersed them in the research data . Therefore , the early re - designs we created could be deployed and refined in the context of real user interaction .
Application : How I used it :
We used mind mapping in various different settings and gathered information / data , we
reviewed customer complaints through social media , collected internal customer care feedback and interviewed a group of end users . I will discuss one example of the mind mapping example that we used : “ interviewing a group of end users ”
We organized an offsite session in an informal setting consisting of people with good mix of business users , stakeholders and customers from different ethnic backgrounds and varying levels of tech savviness . We categorized all the users into three groups : “ Buy and Renew ” , “ understand and manage ” and “ Engage and access ” . Then within these categories we created 3 sub- groups per category consisting of people of different skill sets / understanding of health insurance business . The team had two important objectives . First was to focus on finding stay with the objective of what do you see as a pain full experience in customer journey using our website and second what are some of the new features and functionality we can implement to improve the digital customer experience . We reiterated that all ideas are good . Each group was given a white board to either list or create a visual of new ideas . We also asked them to rank the ideas we asked them to rank high to low importance to them .
We gave them 30 mins to discuss and whiteboard the information . Then we have each group report out on their ideas while pointing to the mark - ups on their White boards . After the session , we reviewed all the white board information and created a visual of consolidated Ideas the first 20 ideas with the highest rank were taken to next level of analysis .
Insight and Feedback - what I learned :
What I have learned from conducting the mind mapping exercise is that it is very important to have a mix of group to get complete set of ideas . There were some very significant ideas that were generated and ranked high that were not listed in initial backlog that the team had put together prior to the exercise . We had to keep reminding the team of the objective and insights any deviation should be corrected and brought back to the theme . The most important was to be very approachable for all ideas and make the group feel more engaged . In the course of this exercise we had to lot of challenging questions from our business and stake holders on why we need this exercise as there is already an existing requirement / backlog from them and what would be the output and would they see any of these implemented . Learning was to include the mind mapping exercise as a beginning of any project we implement for digital strategy . I also feel we need to add more visualization tools have a person from each group draw the ideas out / provide a visual designer to the team make it more visual interactive and fun .

Challenge & Selection I ’m working in a consultancy firm and we have been growing fast in the last years , so there was no much time to include new methodologies or improvements in the way that we are working . So many times we try to include Design Thinking as a complementary model that can help us to do our work better . In spite of that , we know that Design Thinking will be a way to improve our methodology we have to time to take a training course or read a book . So one of or most complicated challenge was looking for time to get in to Design Thinking .
Application & Insight One of the most interesting things about the application of design thinking was that at our job we always are working with international standards that we adapt for our clients and then help then to adopt the standard and one thing that we realize was that all of this standards has in their core structura all of the desing thinking model so we understand that design thinking is no the end is the mean of a lot of the things that we are doing . The best application that we develop around the model is one thing that we call Service Design Thinking , part of our work is designing services so we were used to work with traditional methodologies to define the need of our clientes , then establish how the service has to work and then look the way that the service will be delivered and mainteined in the future . So rialize that what we need to improve our method was the descovery of how design thinking was embeded in our day to day practices .
Approach I guess the apprach that we talked about was to include in our day to day activities all of the tools and resources that design thinking help us to develpo . There is no going to be time to learn something new without trying it . There is no posibility to incluide design thinking without a pourpuse so the best approach is to find activities that we want to improve or optimize and apply all of the design thinking steps because despite of what you are trying to do o trying to achive the questions will be the same , what is ? , what if ? What wows ? and What works ? and the iterative process that is behind of the model will keep the momentum in what you want to achive .

For example , companies like Procter and Gamble and GE have incorporated Design Thinking into their strategy and marketing . Innovation is also central to the mission of Leeds . While the Leeds curriculum has a number of opportunities for students to develop entrepreneurial skills that aid the innovation process , there is still opportunity for more focus on innovation- specific skills and strategies such as Design Thinking . This course will offer an immersive experience in Design Thinking as a tool for innovative idea and strategy development . Additionally , Leeds is always seeking to develop stronger relationships with the external Boulder community . In this class , students work with local businesses and develop continuing relationships with local community members . As mentioned , the world and its challenges demand a new breed of professional — those who are trained to drive innovation , no matter the situation , industry , or problem . Design Thinking is a process pioneered at the IDEO and the Stanford d.school . This process draws on methods from engineering and design , and combines them with ideas from the arts , tools from the social sciences , and insights from the business world Course Description :
Students start in the field , where they discover the needs of the target audience . They then iterate ideas on teams to develop a range of promising possible solutions , create rough prototypes to take back out into the field , and test with real people in the target audience .
Throughout the course students will work on three different challenges ; one focused on product design , one focused on service design and one focused on systems or business design . By starting with a very tangible challenge around product design , students will be able to hone their skills in the process before moving into more complex challenges around business and systems level design . All challenges will be addressed in partnership with a local business that poses a problem they are currently facing . In pilot programs for this class , businesses have implemented a number of ideas developed by students . The course will be teamwork - oriented , but students will also complete readings and independent activities that support the group work and ensure individual depth of knowledge . Course Objectives
• Expose students to the design process as a tool for innovation .
• Develop students ’ professional skills in client management and communication .
• Demonstrate the value of developing a local network and assist students in making lasting connections with the business community .

1 . Challenge : Describe your challenge , including all relevant information .
A couple of years ago I was living in Ecuador . There I realized how the economical crisis had affected the people ’s perception of my country ( Spain ) .
People having 5 children and earning about $ 2 a day used to tell me “ you really are having a terrible time there in Spain , I ’m so sorry about you … ”
Besides this , 15 days after arriving to that country I was express kidnapped ( something inconceivable in Spain ) so I developed two new needs :
• Spending much more time at my expatriated-home
• Telling the world that Spain , though in dire straits , was a wonderful and peaceful place to go and to live in .
I decided to send a strong message to the rest of the world .
Selection : In your own words , briefly describe the tool you selected ( e.g. , what it is and why you selected it for your challenge -- including any appropriate video lecture references ) .
I would use my own personal repertoire to find a possible solution . I begun finding a big core target that allowed me to create a succesfull business idea and also helped me to spread a message of quality and tranquility about my country .
So I began to write the STORYTELLING I was about to build using that inspiring and engaging tool we already know .
My first target group : other Spanish people
I involved lots of them with my own ecuadorian story and gave them a cause to fight against : misunderstanding of our country . Much more than a 20 % listened to me and they were rapidly engaged with the idea and joined the project . They soon felt a part of the process and began to talk about my idea as a part of their own organizations and lives .
My second target group : turists
60 milion people come every year to visit my country . I would continue the conversation with them and then , they would spread the message in their own countries talking to friends and family . Doing so I could be talking with milions of people in a few months !
2 . Application : Describe how you applied the tool you selected to your challenge ( e.g. , what
you did and how the tool was applied effectively or ineffectively ) .
Everybody comes to Spain looking for paella and sangría and I started my conversation creating a product that amplifies the information about my country using gastronomy as an excuse to chat with them . I chose the tapa ’s trend to create Tapas to go ! , a new kind of souvenir formed by small , traditional , sustainable and historic spanish business and lots of fun information about all of them .
When you have in your hand a Tapas to go ! pack , you have a completely different souvenir , beautiful , full of interesting information and absolutely ready to fit into your backpack or suitcase .
With every Tapas to go ! You have everything you need to share at home the tapa ’s experience you ’ve had during your Spanish vacation : the food , the condiments , the dishes , the napkin … even the music ! Every Tapas to go ! ( there are 7 varieties ) has an Spanish music playlist , so everyone could complete their tapa ’s experience and , of course , learn something else about Spanish culture ( Spain is much more than paella and sangría , and much more than “ flamenco music ” ) .
And , nevertheless , every Tapas to go ! Is hand made with lots of love by disabled people .
All this , paying the same price you have to pay for a typical souveir T-shirt .
This is how Tapas to go ! looks like :
3 . Insight : Describe the insight you gained from applying the tool you selected to your
challenge ( e.g. , how an insight affected your thinking about the challenge and about design thinking more broadly ) .
When I travel , I consider that 50 % of the success of a trip comes with food and people you share it with . Every Tapas to go ! allows travellers to carry back home this feeling so they can continue my brand ’s storytelling at home , spreading the message about Spanish businesses and opmimism I wanted them to learn .
The brand also continues the conversation through the social networks . Just three months after the launch , Google analytics showed that people from 47 countries had entered Tapas to go ! website .
We also receive lots of imputs and congrats from people all over the world through all our media .
4 . Approach : Describe what you might do differently next time -- applying the same tool you
selected or a different one -- and the reason(s ) why .
At
the
beginning
of
the
process
I
was
really
afraid
of
being
copied .
I
did n’t
share
much
information
with
people
who
may
have
helped
me
just
because
I
was
afraid
of
being
cheated
by
a
big
Brand
with
a
lot
of
resources
and
knoledge .
But
I
soon
realized
that
people
was
so
in
love
with
the
Project
and
the
storytelling
about
it ,
that
nobody
tried
to
do
it .
I
received
lots
of
good
ideas ,
free
advises
and
help
from
unknown
people
who
did n’t
have
any
reason
to
help
me .
The
only
motive
they
had
was
their
own
personal
involvement
with
the
stories
we
told
about
the
brand
and
it ’s
intentions .
So
I
think
I
would
use
the
same
tool ,
in
a
most
profesional
way ,
maybe .
And
I
would
( I
have
to )
spend
much
more
time
using
the
brand ’s
social
networks
to
make
all
the
project
grow .

So I began to write the STORYTELLING I was about to build using that inspiring and engaging tool we already know .
My first target group : other Spanish people
I involved lots of them with my own ecuadorian story and gave them a cause to fight against : misunderstanding of our country . Much more than a 20 % listened to me and they were rapidly engaged with the idea and joined the project . They soon felt a part of the process and began to talk about my idea as a part of their own organizations and lives .
My second target group : turists
60 milion people come every year to visit my country . I would continue the conversation with them and then , they would spread the message in their own countries talking to friends and family . Doing so I could be talking with milions of people in a few months !
2 . Application : Describe how you applied the tool you selected to your challenge ( e.g. , what
you did and how the tool was applied effectively or ineffectively ) .
Everybody comes to Spain looking for paella and sangría and I started my conversation creating a product that amplifies the information about my country using gastronomy as an excuse to chat with them . I chose the tapa ’s trend to create Tapas to go ! , a new kind of souvenir formed by small , traditional , sustainable and historic spanish business and lots of fun information about all of them .
When you have in your hand a Tapas to go ! pack , you have a completely different souvenir , beautiful , full of interesting information and absolutely ready to fit into your backpack or suitcase .
With every Tapas to go ! You have everything you need to share at home the tapa ’s experience you ’ve had during your Spanish vacation : the food , the condiments , the dishes , the napkin … even the music ! Every Tapas to go ! ( there are 7 varieties ) has an Spanish music playlist , so everyone could complete their tapa ’s experience and , of course , learn something else about Spanish culture ( Spain is much more than paella and sangría , and much more than “ flamenco music ” ) .
And , nevertheless , every Tapas to go ! Is hand made with lots of love by disabled people .
All this , paying the same price you have to pay for a typical souveir T-shirt .
This is how Tapas to go ! looks like :
3 . Insight : Describe the insight you gained from applying the tool you selected to your
challenge ( e.g. , how an insight affected your thinking about the challenge and about design thinking more broadly ) .
When I travel , I consider that 50 % of the success of a trip comes with food and people you share it with . Every Tapas to go ! allows travellers to carry back home this feeling so they can continue my brand ’s storytelling at home , spreading the message about Spanish businesses and opmimism I wanted them to learn .
The brand also continues the conversation through the social networks . Just three months after the launch , Google analytics showed that people from 47 countries had entered Tapas to go ! website .
We also receive lots of imputs and congrats from people all over the world through all our media .
4 . Approach : Describe what you might do differently next time -- applying the same tool you
selected or a different one -- and the reason(s ) why .
At
the
beginning
of
the
process
I
was
really
afraid
of
being
copied .
I
did n’t
share
much
information
with
people
who
may
have
helped
me
just
because
I
was
afraid
of
being
cheated
by
a
big
Brand
with
a
lot
of
resources
and
knoledge .
But
I
soon
realized
that
people
was
so
in
love
with
the
Project
and
the
storytelling
about
it ,
that
nobody
tried
to
do
it .
I
received
lots
of
good
ideas ,
free
advises
and
help
from
unknown
people
who
did n’t
have
any
reason
to
help
me .
The
only
motive
they
had
was
their
own
personal
involvement
with
the
stories
we
told
about
the
brand
and
it ’s
intentions .
So
I
think
I
would
use
the
same
tool ,
in
a
most
profesional
way ,
maybe .
And
I
would
( I
have
to )
spend
much
more
time
using
the
brand ’s
social
networks
to
make
all
the
project
grow .
