Design Thinking Express is a 7-hours workshop with hands-on learning activities to help employees learn and experience innovation process using the Design Thinking approach.
About Design Thinking
​​In a rapidly changing and uncertain industry, conventional innovation approaches are no longer sufficient—let alone relying solely on incremental improvements. We need to embrace Design Thinking, an innovation method specifically designed to thrive amidst change and uncertainty.
For nearly two decades, Design Thinking has been utilized by global giants like Apple, 3M, and P&G. According to McKinsey research, companies that consistently apply Design Thinking achieve 2.5 times higher revenue growth and enterprise value compared to their industry peers.
What makes Design Thinking uniquely effective is its human-centered approach. Unlike methods focused on products, processes, or competitors, Design Thinking prioritizes uncovering customers' most fundamental needs and creating solutions that deliver the highest value to them.
Since 2018, CIAS has empowered thousands of innovators across numerous industries to implement and benefit from Design Thinking. Now, it's your turn to unlock its potential with us.

WORKSHOP DESIGN
This is not your typical training. Design Thinking Express is a hands-on workshop where participants are guided step-by-step in practicing Design Thinking to create innovative solutions for products, processes, or social challenges drawn directly from real-life cases.
As such, the activities in our workshop are not merely simulations but focus on Real Problems – Real Solutions. To ensure effective learning, participants will be divided into Squads, each closely facilitated by our associate facilitators.

I don’t work in Product Development. Is Design Thinking suitable for me?
​
Yes, Design Thinking is not limited to product innovation. Over the past decade, Design Thinking has also been applied to business process innovation and even social innovation.
​
This means that the "customers" targeted in the Design Thinking process can be end customers or internal customers, such as colleagues.
