About This Course

Does your health organization want to maximize your team’s strengths and creativity to solve problems? Do you want your end user to provide insights into developing new products, and services that enhance their experience at your facility?
Then this short course is for you and your team!

The Course
Design thinking is an innovative approach to defining problems and finding solutions in a rapidly evolving health systems landscape. It is heavily user-centric leading to rapidly prototyped and iteratively refined solutions. Compared to traditional problem-solving methods in health care, Design Thinking leads to more successful and sustainable interventions.

How Does it Work?
Your organization/health facility or a department in your organization will define a challenge you are experiencing that you need to solve. Our certified senior coaches will take your team through the 5 step design thinking process in a 5 day, all day workshop. This user-centric process will eventually lead to the generation of many ideas from the team. These are tested on the users and refined until an innovative and impactful solution is achieved.

Venue
The course can be at your organization’s premises, our campus, or other venues of choice.
