The ask
How might we help teams use human-centred design to solve their own organisational challenges?

The challenge
Why this problem mattered
Context to come — the situation the organisation was in, what was at stake and why the problem was worth solving.
What I discovered
The human insight
Key insight to come — the behavioural or human truth that reframed how the team understood the problem.
What I did
I designed and led a practical design-thinking programme combining training, facilitation and hands-on application to real organisational problems, coaching teams to use the approach independently.
Further detail to come — my role, how the work ran and the decisions it shaped.
Methods
- Capability Building
- Facilitation
- Co-design
The impact
The organisation continued using design-thinking practices beyond the initial programme, embedding human-centred approaches into how teams tackled problems and developed solutions.
