【 Course content 】
The ideas that move the world have their origins in you. In order to create new things, it is necessary to devise a little ingenuity, such as changing your own perspective and framework, or trying to give shape to others.
In this workshop, you will discover and expand your own ideas through reflection and dialogue techniques.
We will also touch on verbalization, storytelling, and UX research methods (persona, journey map, etc.).
