Workshops

  • For every team facing a strategic decision or initiating a new project.

    This Mini-Design Sprint guides you through a step-by-step creative process and ensures a solution.

    With a mini-Design Sprint you:

    ✔ Gain direct results on a challenge you face

    ✔ Elevate your team to peak performance and

    creativity.

    ✔ Discover Design Thinking by doing it

    ✔ Only invest 2 hours per team member (max. 7p.)

  • Stimulate creativity within your team.

    When tackling creative brainstorm sessions, navigating through varied perspectives can be challenging. Team members may have differing views, causing uncertainty about the best starting point and which ideas to prioritize.

    The "Creative Brainstorm" workshop:

    ✔ Enhances creativity within your team.

    ✔ Offers engaging exercises to break through differing views

    ✔ Streamlines the process to an outcome

    ✔ Leaves your team with a unified vision and prioritized ideas, ready to fuel your next steps.

  • Fast-track decision-making in your team.

    Efficient decision-making often is a challenge for teams with diverse perspectives. It results in uncertainty about prioritizing tasks and immediate actions.

    The "Lightning Decision Jam" workshop is designed to :

    ✔ Address challenges head-on

    ✔ Gets your team through a structured decision-making process

    ✔ Ensuring rapid solutions

    ✔ Gains clarity to your team with unified decisions and a roadmap for immediate action.

  • Align your team on your company’s brand​ in just 3 hours.

    A “brand sprint” is a game-changer. It turns the abstract concept of "our brand" into something tangible and practical. By the end of the session, you'll have:

    ✔ 20-Year Roadmap

    ✔ What, How, Why

    ✔ Top 3 Values

    ✔ Top 3 Audiences

    ✔ Personality Sliders

    ✔ Competitive Landscape overview

  • Draw or refine your value proposition.

    Crafting a value proposition is challenging. It requires concise yet impactful messaging that resonates with diverse team perspectives and effectively communicates unique value to the target audience, all while balancing clarity, distinctiveness, and relevance.

    The "Value Proposition Design" workshop incorporates a series of hands-on exercises to:

    ✔ Refine & strengthen or design your value proposition.

    ✔ Provide you actionable insights for immediate implementation.

  • Get your team aligned.

    It's a common struggle within teams when it comes to aligning on the true challenges. Perspectives often differ, which leads to uncertainty about where to start, what needs immediate attention, and what can be temporarily set aside.

    In my dynamic "Challenge Framing" workshop, we tackle this challenge head-on. Your team:

    ✔ Gains focus and leaves with a clear, unified understanding of the problem at hand

    ✔ Leaves with defined next steps.

  • Rapid innovation through collaborative problem-solving.

    A “hackaday” is an intensive and collaborative event where a multidisciplinaire team comes together to solve a problem within just 8 hours.

    We will call the participants "hackers". They will engage in rapid prototyping and problem-solving to produce tangible results.

    Hackathons promote creativity, teamwork. It’s simular to a Design Sprint, but then in just 1 day.

    The benefits of a Hackaday:

    ✔ Problem Solving: Hackathons provide an opportunity to work on real-world problems and find innovative solutions in 8 hours.

    ✔ Skill Development: Participants can enhance their technical, problem-solving, and collaboration skills.

    ✔ Creativity: Encourages creative thinking and out-of-the-box solutions to challenges.

    ✔ Project Development: Rapid development of prototypes or projects within a short time frame.

    ✔ Learning: Exposure to new technologies, tools, and methodologies during the hackathon.

    ✔ Teamwork: Collaboration with diverse individuals, fostering teamwork and communication skills.

    ✔ Prizes and Recognition: You can offer prizes, recognition, or opportunities to individual members or teams. Be playful!

  • Months of work, in just 4 days.
