Design Thinking Workshops and Training
We craft exciting workshops and training program so that you can learn the design thinking process in meaningful, powerful and robust ways. Our offerings are tailored to suit your organizational needs.
Design Mindset Matters Workshop
Most people believe that learning the design thinking process is enough. However, design thinking isn’t about following a series of steps; it is beyond that. In this workshop, you understand what it means to put yourself in your customer’s shoes and having a bias towards action, how to question assumptions and challenge dated processes in practice, how to reframe problems into opportunities, how to build on others ideas, how to collaborate meaningfully, and how to embrace failure as a learning opportunity. You will discover team dynamics and design-led leadership in hands-on, experiential ways.
Design Thinking Consulting and Implementation
Sometimes the hardest part, after attending a design thinking training session is how to bring it back to your workplace. We offer on-site expertise and work side-by-side with you to apply the design thinking process to get results for complex, messy problems. We assist in kick-starting the innovation projects, clarifying scope, reframing the problem, team, timing, and tool sets. We facilitate diverse teams and help break the department silos enabling the organization to explore new business opportunities.

Design Thinking ROI and ROE Evaluation
For an outcome based gain-sharer pricing and valuable assessment, we develop appropriate key performance indicators or pre-defined set of results together with our clients a priori/before the project starts. You have to agree and give the buy-in and budget to implement the necessary changes and ensure that all the participants in the transformation program are fully aligned to get the desired impact. Here we follow the fundamental principle of continuous improvement based on corrective actions taken along the way in the journey to achieve the outcome they want. We provide real-time feedback to the change management initiative.

WHAT MAKES US DISTINCTIVE?
We design for enterprise wide innovation
We have decoded and lifted design’s problem-solving toolkit to work on the wicked problems that businesses face today. Marketers Touchpoint’s deep conversations to understand the business need helps bring the appropriate design tools and techniques, giving a fresh perspective to reframe the problem and co-design the solution, taking it from an innovative method to a rigorous discipline that is sharpened in boardrooms and is suited for corporate strategy and culture. In this approach, your people are at the epicenter of value creation and helps prepare the organization to thrive in an uncertain future.
We co-create and co-design with client team and not for them
We are dedicated to a philosophy of co-create, which means both that we involve the cross-functional stakeholders in the organization to design the change, and put to use a well-developed toolkit that supports group thinking, buy-in, and creativity. Co-create encompasses a process of “doing with” rather than “doing to.” Rather than creating new content and programs in a back room with minimal user input, we involve relevant stakeholders as partners in the process and work together to deliver the desired outcomes.
We unleash people’s smarts, passion, and energy
We help leaders set up an environment and build the skills that channel design is thinking across all levels of the organization to come with breakthrough thinking to improve (or create new) products, services, processes, that is aligned with your business goals. We do not treat it as a one-off change program; we help build a cultural foundation that transforms people into engaged change agents and make this a way of life in the organization.
We turn strategy from power point into conversations and action
We transform “strategy as data analytics” to “strategy as design,” using the design thinking framework. It helps leadership team reframe the future strategy as a convincing story based on a strong line of reasoning. They can then influence people to act together for the benefit of a shared purpose, and invite employees and partners to become story writers, story tellers and story doers within the company’s story.
We help cut through the clutter and make sense
We bring empathy, visualization and a feedback mechanism to help people navigate through the overflowing data, a huge variety of information to achieve clarity and focus. We use bysiness model canvas, empathy maps, storytelling, journey maps, service blueprints, prioritizing matrix, what if analysis and other artefacts to accelerate thinking and create smart, handy representations of business and strategy changes.
