Design Thinking Meetup & Creativ Connect: 05-Aug-2025, 02-Sep-2025, 07-Oct-2025, 04-Nov-2025, ...
We meet on the 1st Tuesday of each month from 12:00 to 13:00 / 13:30* (UK Time).
We are a friendly and welcoming community who are curious about workshop facilitation &/ workshop design with a Design Thinking (DT) slant. It's free - so why not join us and meet a curious and diverse crew with similar interests. We enjoy meeting new people and we welcome topic suggestions.
We usually try out a method and follow with a short discussion ... the Sprint is paused and we may return to it in the future.
* The Meetup call is scheduled for 90 minutes. We aim to complete everything in the first hour and follow with an optional 30 minutes for Q&A &/ discussion. You are welcome to come for as long or as short as you wish.
Please sign up here.
Over a number of Meetups we co-created a set of Design Thinking methods, tools and techniques which we are happy to share. We enjoy connecting and sharing facilitation experiences and advice.
I always welcome a 1:1 call especially with newbies so feel free to drop me a line.
The DT Meetup is held monthly - on the 1st Tuesday of the month - other commitments permitting.

Design Thinking - An Immersive Experience
21-Oct-2020 & 03-Nov-2020
I ran this event during the IAF E&W 2020 Conference for people who were curious about Design Thinking workshop techniques or just fancied a short immersive and fun workshop experience. We applied the "Experience First and Explain Second” principle. We experienced a technique which can be used as a workshop icebreaker while at the same time demonstrating the power of Design a Thinking technique. After the short experience we has a brief discussion about key Design Thinking workshop characteristics and had an open Q&A. I ran it again in November.
