WORKSHOP OVERVIEW

Innovation is crucial to organizations. The LUMA Institute understands this and is committed to doing all it can to help organizations innovate. To accomplish this, it has distilled an approach called Human Centered Design.

This approach, delivered over two-day workshops, has been received with much critical acclaim from participants and organizations across the world. It provides participants with exposure to ideas, tools and processes they ought to be familiar with.

Founding Fuel is committed to bring the finest minds and institutions of our times to a single platform. That is why, in a first in India, Founding Fuel has tied up with the Luma Institute to offer an intensive workshop on Innovation through  Human Centered Design--an idea that is completely altering how organizations across the world are working.  

Through a mix of lectures and hands-on activities, this workshop introduces participants to the LUMA System of Innovating for People—a flexible framework for practicing Human-Centered Design.  It is intended to:

• Provide teams with a repeatable way to innovate
• Get more out of your direct customer research
• Measure the impact of your product development efforts
• Promote productive interdisciplinary collaboration
• Learn creative alternatives to traditional brainstorming

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

This workshop is ideal for anyone who seeks to accelerate innovation within their organization, is interested in Human-Centered Design, or who wants to improve their skills in these areas.

Ideal participants are experienced professionals in positions of influence within their organization, who can see the opportunity and aspire to create a culture of innovation.

Because collaboration is a key driver of innovation, we encourage multiple attendees—spanning levels and functions—from any organization.
