Design Thinking Boot Camp: From Insights to Innovation
Immerse yourself in a four-day hands-on design thinking workshop, working in the field and with the Stanford d.school.
Empathy and experimentation. Inspiration and ideation. Design Thinking Boot Camp is a dynamic mix of short instructional lectures, demonstrations, and guided, hands-on teamwork.
In this program, which has a 5-to-1 student-teacher ratio, you’ll learn the elements of the user-centered, prototype-driven design thinking process from world-renowned d.school faculty and trained coaches.
You’ll put those new tools into practice right away with a real-world innovation challenge from an outside company. You and your team will hit the ground running, interviewing and observing customers in the field to understand what motivates them. Then, you’ll head back to the d.school to ideate and prototype, test and retest to develop fresh, innovative solutions.
Your ability to implement the design thinking principles and practices you’ve learned is our top priority. That’s why we help you create action plans for real work projects and provide post-program coaching: so you can successfully execute innovation in your own organization.
