OVERVIEW OF TOPIC:
Do you have a business problem which needs solving? Or are you looking to come up with new ideas for your business?
Our upcoming two-part workshop on ‘Design Thinking’ can help.
Tom and Richard from Cornwall-based business, Evident, will guide you on the best route to approaching problems, helping you generate innovative ideas in a practical way.
‘Design Thinking’ is sometimes considered a bit of a buzz-term, but it can enable you to approach your business’s challenges in the most efficient way whilst inspiring your team to be more entrepreneurial. And it’s not just something those ‘big corporates’ do; Tom and Richard lead teams of all sizes through this tried and tested framework.
You will be part of a small group, working together, being challenged by Evident to really activate change over the course of the workshop.
There’ll also be the chance for 1:1 time with Tom and Richard to follow up on specifics or that ‘brand-new idea’ they’ve got you thinking about!
