STORYTELLING
HOW MIGHT WE help our audience empathize, Align and get excited about a design direction through storytelling?
This is but one example of many approaches… Say more with movement. Other examples include communicating what it’s like to be a blind consumer of new technology through an audio movie or helping stakeholders understand the pain points and validate solutions through a user testing vignette. Seeing a concise collection of user reactions speaks volumes. Imagine how a simple animation or subtle moving picture might capture the imaginations of our users during a campaign or website experience.
LECTURE & EDUCATION
User Research & Virtual Reality
How might we utilize VR as a Creative Problem Solving Tool?
When testing a design, product, or solution in a lab setting, researchers don't usually get a sense of how that design would work in the user's actual setting, with environmental changes, harsh or life-threatening conditions, or extreme geographic disparities. With virtual reality (VR) we can inject these variables into a lab setting to test our design within these conditions to gain a more realistic perspective before taking big (and expensive) steps toward building a final solution.
This seminar is meant to give a first-hand perspective of how VR can be integrated into user research, and how it can positively impact your next design project.

DESIGN THINKING FACILITATOR
HOW MIGHT WE amplify and 10x efforts with workshops that build trust, efficiency, and psychological safety?
Make it useful:
This example above shows how we aligned the roadmap of yearly projects across departments.
Make it fun:
When we laugh and smile, we embrace new ways of thinking and inspire each other with new ideas.
It’s a team sport. Develop the idea together. A process that brings teams closer together by sharing and understanding their individual expertise as well as a time to bond through the process of solving a problem larger than them. This includes breaking the ice with some humor through the creation of our “baseball cards”, leaning on each other for answers, and building the habit of trust. At the end of the day, we enable more fun, efficient, and goosebump-inspiring work.
