Experience Design
Learn proven methods to design experiences that change the way people 🗣 think, ♥️ feel, and ✋ act.
Program Overview
Experiences are everything. We connect and we meaningfully grow through the experiences that we share. Designing experiences is a critical leadership skill for the 21st century. As a leader you create the experiences that your co-workers, clients and customers have. The ability to sculpt these experiences to repeatably create meaningful outcomes is what this training is all about. Whether you are working with experience design in relation to end-users or employees, our holistic framework will enable you to create meaningful experiences. This training is aimed to help you create multiple layers of value in every experience you design. We will work with the 5E Model to speed you through the trial and error in your workshop or event experience planning and give you the language and confidence to deliver an outstanding experience every time. The Signature Kaospilot Experience Design program is a three-day course where you, together with a group of like-minded peers, enter a learning experience to learn how to design events, environments, products and services that transform emotions, thinking and behavior. This program provides you with a modern toolbox and the space to practice designing meaningful experiences that create value, engagement and transformation.
