Transformation by Design: The Three Ideas Driving Organisational Change Service design has captured imaginations beyond the design sector because it neatly packages a set of ideas and an approach to management that’s well suited to organisations looking to change. Three major transformations are underway: the shift from business to customer-centricity; from product to services development; and a change in mindset from solely analytical to imaginative approaches to improvement and innovation. Even with solid management practices in place to focus organisations on quality and efficiency, organisations still work hard to win and keep customers. Their challenges span business activities from leadership and culture to the design of experiences. The need to transform is very real and organisations are again looking to the market for ideas. This presentation introduces Engine’s perspective on the three transformations, expands on the challenges and importantly, sets out the role of design in helping organisations transform.
