Much focus has been placed on leadership development in past years, with the emphasis being on designing training programmes to develop the leadership skills and capabilities of those in formal leadership positions or those aspiring to “climb the ladder”. Leadership training programmes tend to be highly commoditized. We do however need to ensure that all those in the system are developed to be empowered to effectively contribute to the organisational goals and objectives. This is where followership, the other side of the leadership coin, comes in. Where does one find training for followers though? Join us for an interactive session as we shift our attention to developing followership excellence and unpacking what effective followership entails. Let us get together to co-create a training programme for followership excellence.

Covid lockdowns have taught us a lot about a small group of people being with each other all day, every day. This session explores what we might learn from these experiences when setting up and leading teams for success. https://www.linkedin.com/in/apolaine/ http://twitter.com/apolaine https://www.polaine.com https://courses.polaine.com https://www.polaine.com/about-me/ Many in-house design professionals have a choice: work solely in an innovation hub or play an additional role in scaling design capabilities within their organization. If designers focus on the former, how will they get better projects and collaborators from their organization? And if designers participate in the latter, how will they navigate their organization to ensure capabilities truly take root? This session will discuss how teams can attract better internal projects and how to transfer essential capabilities, with a particular focus on co-creating and measuring successful outcomes. Wednesday Web Jam no. 79 - "Forecasting product and service success with AI" with Pedro Janeiro10/28/2021 How smart are Artificial Intelligence nowadays and how can it help in the innovation space? Spoiler - don’t sell your brain yet! Pedro will go through a series of simple exercises to illustrate for non-techies how most AI software works, how it might be used to forecast product and service success, and how it desperately needs human help to be truly helpful in the real world. The future is hybrid - we will discuss how and why. 
Let's go outside! Hop on zoom with your phone or tablet, and let’s go for a walk to explore our environments together! If you can't go out due to restrictions, please stay safe indoors and we can still bring you around with us too. How do you experience your 5 senses with your surrounding and use those skill sets better in a design thinking process. We all contribute to the creation of and life within complex systems -- natural ecosystems, food systems, judicial systems, markets, governments, communities, families, and even our individual lives. If we want to effectively address one or more of intractable problems that we encounter or read about every day, we need to create system-level interventions that shift the root causes rather than just temporarily mitigate symptoms. In this session we will explore the concept of “leverage points” and how we might create interventions that are effective at achieving positive changes within a system. Wednesday Web Jam no. 76 - “Food & POZE: Pursuing Aspirations” with Ofri Hirsch and Cornelia Walther10/7/2021 This workshop looks to tap into the inner process of personal growth using our relationship with food. How our relationship with food affects and reflects our being both physically and spiritually and how we can tap into that wisdom in order to catalyze change. Our premise is that global change starts with individuals. We feel that by looking at individual aspirations as the point of departure, marrying the two topics; POZE and food and by juxtaposing it with the process of design we are creating a hands-on workshop that triggers change from the inside out.

We will learn at the same time how to make more visually engaging remote workshops. Wonder what cat strategy is, and how do we empower women with this? Join us for another interactive Wednesday to find out! We have an ardent worldwide problem to solve. We have one hour to come up with ideas. So we apply the cat strategy on women empowerment. It is fast and focused, playful and lazy. We will be discovering more about Scaling Design Thinking with Arne, Mimp, and our Web Jam community. During this interactive and fast-paced session, we will share experiences, attempt to dissect what scaling actually means, and if scaling design thinking is actually possible or even desirable.
