How do you maintain creativity across remote teams?

This is the first of five webinars designed to take you through the conceptual design process.

Design teams are adapting to the new normal of remote working. This presents challenges to how to maintain a creative team dynamic that supports great design when working remotely.

This fun and interactive webinar challenges you to come at problems from different perspectives and develop your divergent thinking.
 

Learning outcomes:

  • Understand the design team as a creative system
  • Identify ways to improve interactions across a team of remote workers
  • Improve ways to share design information when the traditional ways are no longer possible.
 

Intended for

Anyone with an interest in improving the outputs of the design team.
