Meld Studios - Leading human-centred organisations workshops

Organisations that are truly human-centred are not only better for their customers, they are better places to work and provide vastly superior returns for their shareholders. Yet many organisations have only focussed their human-centred design efforts on the thin layer of interactions and touchpoints between themselves and their customers. Baking human-centredness into the fabric of an organisation is a very different activity.

This workshop provides an excellent introduction to the benefits of broadening your human-centredness and applying it more holistically to an organisation.

We'll discuss common challenges and you'll learn a variety of practical techniques you can put in place to influence the right kind of change.

Who is this workshop for?

This workshop is for leaders, aspiring leaders and those who wish to inspire leaders to lead their organisations in more human-centred ways.
