Designing design thinking driven operations
56
I blog about strategic and tactical service design and management. Trying to explore how service design practices develop. With a focus in developing strong conceptual work, supporting design decisions on research and enabling readers to create conversations with clients, colleagues and customers. I also aim to support senior managers and professionals to reflect and improve their practices.

2. Was the ‘interaction’ easy?

3. Was the ‘interaction’ enjoyable?
