Design Thinking Training Series for Project Management

Design Thinking is increasingly recognized as a vital approach in project management across various industries due to its user-centric, innovative, and flexible nature. Integrating Design Thinking into project management not only enhances the process but also leads to more innovative, user-centered, and successful projects. It transforms the traditional project management approach by incorporating empathy, collaboration, and iterative learning, which are key to thriving in modern, dynamic business environments.

We have successfully guided enterprises and organizations in Hong Kong and China in implementing Design Thinking through human-centered and innovation-based project management approaches. The outcomes of these projects have been exemplary, demonstrating significant achievements such as increased 3-billion revenue for a banking project, improved 127% closing rates for an insurance project, enhanced citizen experiences in a community development project, and better passenger experiences for a transportation project. These impactful project results have been documented and published in the Hong Kong Business Design Thinking Cases 2019 to 2022, which were published by the Hong Kong Government.
