Changes in business leadership are transforming the way companies solve problems by putting human-centricity at the core of their business strategy. The immense value design thinking offers in-terms of increased customer satisfaction, business efficiency and competitive advantage are widely recognised with 75% of organisations self-reporting that they are engaged in design thinking*(Source: Parsons New School).

Key concerns facing by many companies include:

  • How can companies overcome barriers and risk aversion to a human-centric culture?
  • What are the obstacles to implementing design-led solutions for consumers?
  • Can you ensure scalability and sustainability of a design thinking across the entire business?
  • How to create the right balance between design thinking and technology?
  • What are the strategies for measuring outcomes and ROI for design-led solutions?
