8 Design Principles for Organizational Transformation

  • What happens when the worlds of design thinking and traditional change management collide?
  • We’ll begin by sharing a synthesis of the design principles being developed in this emerging area through a project called Change DNA.
  • We will explore how these design principles enable transformational change through participatory co-creation, emergence, and visual thinking.
  • Join us for an evening of interactive exploration of real change challenges using XPLANE’s visual thinking tools and frameworks.
