Part-time management programme for professionals
Do you want to innovate in a more effective, efficient and creative way? Follow this Masterclass and discover the successful Design Thinking methodology!
WHAT IS DESIGN THINKING?
Design Thinking is a successful methodology to innovate in a people-oriented way, thus increasing the added value of yourself, your department and your organisation. You develop new skills, enabling you to work more decisively and get from idea to impact faster.
In addition to the theoretical aspects, you will get down to work in a very practical way during this Masterclass. Using an innovation model based on a combination of Design Thinking and agile and lean innovation methodologies, you will go through all the steps to arrive at innovative solutions.
WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH DESIGN THINKING?
During the Design Thinking Masterclass , you will develop a human-centred mindset. This means you know what the needs, wishes and frustrations of your customers, employees, patients or users are.
This mindset will enable you to better develop and implement ideas. Thanks to various creativity principles and tools, you select ideas that add value, visualise them and communicate them better to key stakeholders so that they too become convinced. In short, you will go from concept to implementation faster and more successfully.
Upon completion, you will be awarded a certificate from UMIO | Maastricht University.
