Integrative Empathy for Design
This Integrative Empathy for Design workshop equips you with practical knowhow and hands-on skills to deepen your empathy for design. In our live Online Classroom you learn to apply self-empathy and bias, non-verbal communication, deep listening and imagination, as hands-on behaviour, guiding you in your design research.
Empathy is given centre-stage in design thinking and human-centred design. It is useful throughout the design process since it offers skills to guide interactions between multi-stakeholders. It is also the basis for doing skilful research, interviewing and observing clients. However, what is often lacking is specific instruction on how to use empathy in research and design.
Integrative Empathy for Design, provides specific instructions on the how of empathy. What’s more, you will be given ample time to apply your skills to your own design challenges. Throughout the workshop our experienced facilitators will provide coaching and feedback as they encourage you to deepen your insights into customers and teams .
