SERVICE DESIGN: MORE THAN THE SUM OF ITS PARTS
With Andy Polaine
Date: Monday, February 14, 2011
Time: 6:00 to 7:30pm
Location: 80 5th Avenue, 8th Floor, Room 802, NY
Service Design is more than the sum of its methods, blueprints and customer journey maps. In this talk Andy will explore the mental move from an industrial, product-fixated mindset to a service-oriented one. He will explain the four spheres of people, networks, experiences and resilience are the core of service thinking and the glue that holds together the more recognisable touchpoints. Andy will also examine the boundaries of service design and design thinking when dealing with complex areas such as public services and even international peace, security and development.
