Our Introduction to Design Thinking Workshop is Back!

Encourage by great feedback and awesome participants, we will be running our 2nd Introduction to Design Thinking Workshop on the 1st and 2nd of December 2011!
The workshop will be run in a cozy and comfortable studio type environment allowing close contact with the facilitators. This is to ensure that you leave with a strong appreciation of Design Thinking as a problem solving tool and what it can do for your organization or business success.
Most traditional Design Thinking workshops are often run within organizations. We wanted our Design Thinking workshop to be open to the masses and to people from all types of industries. We have therefore designed this workshop for people with no experience on the topic, but want to learn more about this new business buzzword.
Here are the details of the workshop with our invitation mailer at the end. Please feel free to print and hang it in your space, or better still, email it to a friend?

Design Thinking is a methodology that is fast becoming a mainstay in business strategy all around the world. Centered around creativity, empathy, and putting the user’s needs as the heart of the problem, Design Thinking is seen as an important tool for driving innovation and sustained business growth.
Our successful and highly rated 2-day Introduction to Design Thinking Workshop focuses on giving managers, professionals, entrepreneurs, and business leaders an introduction to the process of creative idea generation and a user-centered design approach to problem-solving. Participants can expect to leave with a strong appreciation in the value design thinking can bring to their organization.
Facilitated by two industry experts, Brian Ling and Jackson Tan, the workshop will be run in a intimate studio type environment with personal interaction time with facilitators and hands-on exercises that will help participants better understand the tools and processes used in Design Thinking.
