Team
Build a Team
For optimal results, human-centered design requires a team with diverse skill sets. While three business designers may suffice for a new social enterprise, adding a graphic designer, journalist, or industrial designer can introduce fresh perspectives and ways of thinking. While it's wise to anticipate the necessary talent for a project, relying solely on expected team members won't yield innovative solutions.
Workshop steps
First, determine the number of team members required, check your staff's availability, and set the start and end dates for your project.
Examine your team's core members, identify their strengths and weaknesses, and make necessary adjustments.
Do you require a specific technical skill that your current team lacks, such as mechanical engineering, graphic design, or professional writing? Keep in mind that you can always bring in a team member temporarily when their expertise is crucial.
