TALK DESCRIPTION:
Birgit will talk about:
Beyond boundaries - Enabling Solutions That Shape Tomorrow.
Across sectors, organizations are facing boundaries that are structural, cultural, technological, and environmental. Overcoming them requires more than expertise in a single field—it calls for new ways of working, collaborating, and making sense of complexity.
Service design plays a key enabling role in this context. By bringing people together across disciplines, translating insight into action, and shaping solutions around real needs, service design helps organizations navigate transitions and create the conditions for lasting change.
Daniel will talk about:
From Doubts to Excitement - Implementing Journey Management at Scale
Customer journey management is not just a framework - it’s a journey of transformation itself. In this talk, Daniel will share the challenges, learnings, and moments of progress when shifting mindsets and ways of working toward customer - centricity, and why courage, evidence, and human insight are key to success.
