Accelerate Innovation: Learn why it matters and how it’s done. Design Thinking can be used to design products, user experiences, corporate strategy or public services… Innovation Games, whose primary intent is not pure entertainment, can be applied to a broad spectrum of areas like training, hiring, generating new ideas, gathering feedback about a product or change management… The list goes on. An increasing number of organizations have realized the enormous potential of human-centered and playful approach to innovation design and development. The growing success of Agile methods, which put a strong emphasis on people interactions, on fun and on building a creativity-friendly environment, have made Design Thinking and Innovation Games even more popular.

What is Design Thinking?
Design Thinking is a methodology used by
designers to solve complex problems, and find
desirable solutions for clients.
Design Thinking draws upon logic, imagination,
intuition, and systemic reasoning, to explore
possibilities of what could be, and to create
desired outcomes that benefit the end user (the
customer)

Translate observation into insights, insights into
products and services that will improve lives.
Design thinking is an approach that frames
problems creatively and generates innovative
solutions, strategies, systems, paradigms at the
nexus of domains

“Most people make the mistake of thinking
design is what it looks like. People think it’s
this veneer — that the designers are handed
this box and told, ‘Make it look good!’ That’s
not what we think design is. It’s not just what
it looks like and feels like. Design is how it
works.” — Steve Jobs
