Design Thinking for Public Sector Leaders

For the public sector to be truly innovative, a design-led and human-centered approach to innovation must be embedded from the top down. When leaders embrace design thinking and understand their own personal value proposition, change is rapid and has a significant impact on the success and culture of teams. To that end, executive-level buy-in is critical; emphasizing the need for executives to both understand and support design-led innovation.

Build your leadership capacity with the tools to guide your team through change using human-centered methodology that encourages co-creation and a deep understanding of the end-user. By the end of this training, you will understand how to lead your team towards delivering impactful outcomes – whether that’s shaping or improving a program, policy, or service – using data, empathy, rapid prototyping, and iteration.

What You’ll Learn:

How to build and assess innovation capacity among teams.
Essential considerations to effectively lead teams delivering on end-user experience, policy development, and/or transformation initiatives.
Innovative approaches to policy design and service design to better address the needs of citizens and drive public sector innovation.
Insights on how to prototype and experiment in any environment.
Your own personal value proposition and creating prototypes of your own future.

Who Should Attend:

Public sector leaders who are leading or participating in policy development, service design/delivery (both internally and externally), transformation, or change management initiatives.

The training session will be held on January 19-20, 2022. Each day, participants will join a 1.5 hour virtual session in the morning and a second 1.5 hours session in the afternoon. This format allows you to weave this training into your day – allowing you to continue to lead your teams, while growing your leadership skills. All while working from home!
