Talk & Discussion: Creating Effective Workshops

Event Description
Workshops give design practitioners the opportunity to bring a wealth of knowledge together in a room, and focus it towards a challenge that needs resolving. However, workshops aren’t a great space to get a polished idea out, instead they are a tool to build alignment, shared language and craft clear direction. In that sense, our role is not to solve, but facilitate other’s solving in a way that empowers them.

Speaker

Her current focus is on crafting an empowered Service Design practice to accelerate Intuit’s platform experiences. Yasmin is passionate about collaborative workshops as tools to build relationships and guide user centric decision making.
