Every department needs to justify its cost. Design departments are surely the ones that sell the intangible futures. "How can you shape the better future for yourself and your collegues while completing the organisation mission to survive?"

Disclaimer – The department/corporation sessions are designed to help all individuals to thrive in such environments. We are focusing on middle management and unilateral decision-making between departments and business units.

In the "Team of One Hundred", everything is in transition: your role, your product, your deadline, your budget, your team, and your boss's promotion. The acceleration changes are faster than you can keep track of. How do we create and maintain thought leadership in constantly evolving environments?

A series of short presentations and tasks allowing all participants to collectively summarise their greatest challenges and reframe their own understanding of design in their organisation. All participants will have access to the Design at Scale™ Supply (Figma) library, allowing them reuse all our materials for their own ventures. This includes access to our newly established community.

Individual – workshop/webinar is open to all participants from different organisations. This course is designed to be more high-level and address common themes and how to address them effectively in a short period of time.

Companies – physical workshop/webinar is open to all companies facing overload or stagnation of the design function within the organisation. This session is often held at company offices and addresses very specific challenges the company is facing.

Syllabus.

Every organisation faces a technological transition, where clarity beats speed for breakfast. We empower your team to make unilateral decisions in a complex environment that shapes future organisations through design.

1.0 Business Structure

John C. Maxwell, in his book 360-degree leader, emphasizes how important it is to understand the context and structures. Design function I n many organisations is new or seen as – nice to have. In order to change that and have an impact, we need to understand the structure. We'll help you to facilitate the correct question to map out the environment and articulate the value of design.

2.0 Evaluation Matrix

We do not wish to put the lives of others in a spreadsheet, yet the tracking and evaluating the success means understanding the pitfalls that can be simply removed by learning and contributing back to the team.

3.0 Department Fucntion

Seven out of ten designers miss the function of their team and department. Articulated Mission and Department Functions will help all employees and contractors distinguish their roles in a specific delivery. Resulting in the time invested correctly in something that is delivery and not concept driven.

4.0 Agile Organisation

When McKinsey published "The Five Trademarks of Agile Organizations", many organisational designers praised the brilliant articulation of the daily challenges they faced while adopting the mindset change within their organisation. We'll look at how we can integrate these five principles into your scenario.

5.0 Reactive vs Proactive

The silos make your organisation reactive – transparency makes your organisation proactive. The more soiled business you are dealing with, the less impact you can have on the overall business. Conversely, more department transparency leads to greater maturity and responsibility among teammates to act proactively and consider the impact.

6.0 Broadcasting or Protecting

This reflects the business structure broadcasting the success and failure of the team and structures that keep their victories and failures for themselves. We'll discuss how sensible broadcasting makes the team more cohesive and responsible over protecting knowledge and burning the company resources on inefficient design delivery.

7.0 Transparency

How do you broadcast the mindset change, and how do you deal with none believers? Acting from the scarcity and dependency of the job can be exhausting. We'll show you how to approach a team-by-team mentality and how to grow early advocates throughout your workforce.

8.0 Everybody is a Designer

With the arrival of the Miro Board and similar infinite board tools, the design world exploded in the same respect sharing to those who master the craft of design. Not necessarily everyone with an opinion on colour is a designer – in other words, how to create consistency between practitioners (doers), management (influencers), and leadership (decision makers) to keep the quality untouched.

9.0 Make it Scale.

One of Bata's moto – "the system of management is a testimony to the understanding that capital is knowledge and not money", shows that empowering people with knowledge is the only way to succeed. Scale your organisational awareness of design values, and you will achieve more than ten design systems that can do for you and your business.
