This three-day course dives into facilitation concepts and practices, with a goal of understanding how adults work and discover, as well as better comprehending our own behaviour and preferences as a facilitator. Through a series of highly interactive activities, participants will imagine and test facilitation techniques and methods. They will have opportunity to practice and get feedback from both faculty and their peers. At the end, they will be fully equipped for leading their own workshops within service design projects and elsewhere.

This is Service Design Doing: Facilitation Deep Dive is presented together with CBi China Bridge and the CoCreation School.
The CoCreation School is a coproduction of WorkPlayExperience GbR and Sparks sàrl.
This is Service Design Doing moves service design thinking from theory to practice, connecting customer experience to business success. The School facilitators Adam, Marc, and Markus, together with Jakob, also published the book with the same name. With cases and tips from 300 contributors, the authors outline tools and methods, discuss running workshops, sprints and projects, and explore embedding service design.
The co-created script of past editions of the schools laid one of the foundations for the book’s content.
