Description
What does the creation of new products and services require? Sharp insights – which can be developed through careful observation of human behaviour. Organisations often lose sight of how human behaviour and it’s changing nature shape the environment. This field study and workshop is an attempt to understand the silent components of everyday life, to decode behaviour, ultimately making our processes and products richer, more nuanced and successful. It looks at the non-formal aspects of human behaviour, and how they shape their environments to reveal why people do what they do. This understanding is critical to address and identify unspoken and unmet needs which can become a springboard for innovation.
Key outcomes
- Analytically decode qualitative data to generate critical insights that could lead to massive and meaningful innovations
- Understand consumers better and identify new spaces or unmet needs
- Acquire methods to study human behavior and also develop empathy
