In their words

What education leaders say about design thinking training

Education providers

We are focusing heavily on the employee experience within our organisation and prefaced our annual 'strategy to plans' workshop for the HR function with some practical team development on design thinking. Shay quickly developed a clear understanding of our current context and the outcomes we were seeking through using this approach. Shay facilitated a high energy, practical workshop which provided us a great shared understanding of the use of design thinking to improve our ability to develop solutions for better EX outcomes. We were able to immediately use the design, prototyping and customer journey tools through the remainder of our planning workshop and feel confident as a team in this space.

Innovation

Innovation training for education providers

Innovation in education means finding a better experience for students or staff, testing it cheaply and making a case leadership will back.

OES generated over 150 ideas and four prototypes. Monash Graduate Association drew over 200 ideas from graduate students.

Design thinking

Design thinking for universities and schools

Design thinking takes a team from "we think students find this hard" to "here is exactly where, and why".

Navitas used it to improve the employee experience: over 100 ideas and four prototypes. Singapore American School built three parent personas and two future journeys. See the design thinking workshop.

In the room

What an education team should leave with

  • One named student, staff or parent experience, and a shared picture of how it feels end to end.
  • A prioritised list of friction points or ideas, ranked by cost and impact.
  • A rough prototype or test for the most promising idea, with the assumption it needs to prove.
  • A method and a shared language the team can use again without a facilitator.
  • An owner for the next step.

Capability building workshops in design thinking, customer experience, agile, lean startup, critical thinking, psychological safety and productivity. AI programs covering AI training, AI design sprints, AI governance and AI champions..

Which education organisations have you worked with?

Deakin University and the Monash Graduate Association. Navitas and Online Education Services. Singapore American School. CUPA-HR in the United States. Each one has a published case study.

Can a workshop be built around one of our experiences?

Yes, and it works best that way. Singapore American School anchored its session on the parent experience. Bring a live student, staff or parent experience, and the session is built around it.
