Design Thinking Workshop
INTRODUCTION
Context
The ROEB Transformation Office of Health Canada held a series of Transformation by Design workshops in June 2021 for the directorates of the ROEB, focused on applying Design Thinking across the board. The consulting firm Jumping Elephants was approached in April 2021 to design and run the workshops. The sessions had the goal of introducing Health Canada employees to the methodology of design thinking and then apply to to current issues in their daily work. Participants were asked to generate issues and solutions first individually and then within increasingly larger groups up to the complete assembly of employees. In total, 7 sessions were ran with over 100 participants generating 441 problems and 303 solutions.
