How do we 1) make the world better 2) thrive in challenging times?
IRDG is delighted to present Design Thinking Ireland 2022!
Whether you’re an entrepreneur, a product developer, an innovator, a business leader or senior executive, whether you’re new to Design Thinking or deeply focussed on it, Design Thinking Ireland will help you approach your work in a whole new way.
Design Thinking is human centric social technology that encourages more productive organisational innovation, driving sustainable and significant business growth. Through radically collaborative operating frameworks, teams increase their capabilities and create better business outcomes.
Across a packed Conference day on 21st June 2022, Design Thinking Ireland will look at the links between technology and humanity, and understand how design thinking can help us drive sustainability. We’ll look at the future and evolution of Design Thinking and learn how Design Thinking can transform the Employee Experience and create employee-centric strategy, critical for all organisations looking to build better cultures, and to hire and retain talent.
We’ll get Story Design insights from an Oscar nominated screenwriter, and we’ll get clear understanding of the key skills needed for Design Leaders and how they can be developed.
Then on June 22nd, there’s an optional workshop for a small group with one of our conference keynotes, Karen Hold. This workshop will teach timeless principles of empathy, experimentation and iteration that deepen design thinkers’ practice to deliver greater value and greater impact.
Design Thinking Ireland brings you expertise from world leading practitioners ranging across business, academia, research, design and film. It also brings you the opportunity to meet, network and learn from some of the leading innovators across Ireland.
Whether you are new to this topic or already heavily engaged in it, Design Thinking Ireland brings you seminal thinkers and real practical business experience to enable you improve and enhance your business strategy and innovation culture.
Workshop: Deepening your Design Thinking Practice
Facilitated by Karen Hold, Founder and CEO, Experience Labs; Director, DT:DC
