Background

Highly practical Workshop

The longer “Executive School” and the shorter “Essentials” courses both cover the same core tools and processes, equipping you to start your own projects in an organisation. Both are available in online and offline versions.

This Executive School has a deeper emphasis on facilitation skills – including practical experience of facilitating several methods  – on project planning, and on the embedding of service design in strategy and everyday business.

The online versions of both courses provide exercises and reflection on practicing service design remotely.

General info

This is Service Design Doing moves service design thinking from theory to practice, connecting customer experience to business success. The School facilitators Adam, Marc, and Markus, together with Jakob, also published the book with the same name. With cases and tips from 300 contributors, the authors outline tools and methods, discuss running workshops, sprints and projects, and explore embedding service design.

The co-created script of past editions of the schools laid one of the foundations for the book’s content.
