The Power of Human-Centered Design and its Impact on Business - Jakarta

The importance of customer centricity in business increased in the past years. The meaning of design has extended from creating aesthetic beauty to defining business strategy. Many corporations are incorporating design methodologies from customer experience to innovation. Some leading companies even built their own design capabilities in-house. 

You will learn in this session the impact of design on the strategic level. Prof Kim walks you through the service design method and other common tools such as Personas and Service Blueprints. The session also guides you to link experience design with the impact on business. The session combines theoretical snippets and practical exercises.
