At the moment I co-created a design thinking tool for realizing innovative businesses, it’s called Dutch Design Delta’s. We amplify these Delta’s in training programs to bring a more entrepreneurial mindset and skillset into teams. We (STUDIO.WHY & I) have used the Delta’s already for Ministeries, Universities, Corporates, and Institutes. If you happen to be at one of my events you can experience (parts of) it. If you are really eager to get the complete toolkit, including workshops and instructions for yourself and your team, just sent me an email and I will make sure you will get one delivered at cost-price. Next to that I am a big fan of scenario-planning to get people on the same page about the future, I have facilitated 100s of times with the STEEP scenario planning toolkit to train board directors, team managers, teachers, students, young professionals or all at the same time to envision a purposeful goal and consider all elements that might be effected towards reaching that goal.
Within our innovation process with design thinking the value proposition canvas and many more are being used to make sure you are solving a real challenge from a real customer. If you are transforming your corporate or willing to setup a company that leverages technologies to do all work that would in old organizations be done manually you definitely should consider filling in the ExO Canvas and fill in the self-assessment for your business to see from 0- 100 in how well prepared your company is for scaling 10x faster than any traditional company.
