Energy and connectivity for the integrated services era

The Design Thinking training program gave to the participants the opportunity to work differently and learn by doing through active engagement in activities, while also acquiring new skills to apply in their everyday work. Starting from the different topics selected, each team generated new ideas while developing, at the same time, a useful methodology for the future day-by-day collaborative workflow.

For the two companies it was a chance to get to know each other even better and to get a framework to foster creative collaboration and unleash the potential values for future business scenarios.

The Design Thinking training program gave to the participants a tool for practicing the creation of rough prototypes. Moreover, the participants had the opportunity to test their assumptions directly with potential final customers.

Putting the prototype in the hands of the real users allows designers to see what would and would not work. Prototyping reduces misunderstandings between team members and also with corporate management.

The Design Thinking training program is a safe opportunity for each stakeholder to freely express their skills and opinions in a completely different way, far from traditional office meetings.

Scheduling plenary meetings created occasions for the employees to communicate their ideas to their superiors.

Thanks to face-to-face meetings with the top-level management, employees were able not only to discuss their ideas directly with the decision makers but also to speed the processes up: real time feedback reduced the time for implementing them.
