The methodology is called Audience Centred Experience Design (ACED) is based on Design Thinking and strives to reach the real people behind the hard data, replacing abstract data points with a tangible connection to real human beings:
- Focus on achievable goals
- Encourages risk taking – “Fail fast, fail cheap”
- Encourages non-linear thinking
- It’s a relational process
- Challenges assumptions
- Doesn’t replace but integrates other competences
The webinar is free of charge, but registration is required. Please note that the webinar is limited to 200 participants on a first come, first serve basis.
