Overview

Note: This full-day hands-on workshop will be on Thursday Sept 12 from 10am to 5pm and requires a “WORKS” or “WORKSHOP Only” ticket to attend.

What is the best way to think through challenging problems, recognize areas for innovation, generate market opportunities, and enrich customer value? Design thinking is a creative problem-solving methodology that helps transform complex problems into valuable opportunities by putting the customers’ needs first. By being people centric, design thinking refocuses our efforts on the customer (internal or external) and offers enormous potential for innovation and competitive advantage in our solutions.
