This live, instructor-led training in Thailand (online or onsite) is tailored for professionals at beginner to intermediate levels who aim to understand and apply Design Thinking methodologies to drive innovation and enhance business solutions.

By the conclusion of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand the core principles of Design Thinking and its role in innovation.
• Apply the five phases of Design Thinking to problem-solving.
• Utilize ideation techniques and tools to foster creativity.
• Implement Design Thinking strategies to improve processes and enhance efficiency.

This live, instructor-led training in Thailand—offered online or onsite—is designed for junior leaders and HR professionals looking to apply Design Thinking. It focuses on fostering innovation, improving problem-solving capabilities, and effectively engaging teams.

By the end of the session, participants will be able to:

• Apply tools and methodologies that promote innovation and team cohesion.
• Enhance proficiency in empathy mapping, ideation, and prototyping to address complex challenges.
• Implement Design Thinking principles within leadership and HR frameworks.
• Drive a culture of innovation across tech teams.

Overview:

The Design Thinking (DT) process comprises five distinct stages: empathize, define the problem, ideate, prototype, and test.

In today’s increasingly complex environment, challenges often require specialized approaches. Design Thinking serves as a powerful framework for navigating these complexities. By mastering this approach, organizations and individuals can tackle difficult issues more effectively, enhance communication, drive persuasive engagement, boost business outcomes, and elevate both organizational and personal performance.

• Understanding the DT workflow: This involves learning from people and problems, identifying patterns, designing models (while accounting for model drift), testing and evaluating those models, and refining them through re-engineering.
• Exploring the interplay between DT, innovation, and entrepreneurship.
• Leveraging DT methods and tools: including personas, stakeholder maps, customer journey maps, service blueprints, and business model innovation.
• Applying DT principles: fostering a design mindset, driving disruptive innovation, adopting an iterative approach, utilizing agile estimation techniques, and strengthening critical thinking, problem-solving, teamwork, leadership readiness, communication skills, technology savvy, forward-thinking, intercultural and ethical competency, emotional intelligence, self-awareness, negotiation skills, and conflict resolution.

Objectives:

• To grasp the fundamentals and subtle nuances of DT.
• To investigate key concepts, influencing factors, theories, types, and models within DT.
• To actively experiment, gain hands-on experience, and practice DT methodologies.

Delivery:

This intensive one-day (4-hour) training course includes the following components:

• Lectures (40%): Presentation of theories, concepts, models, and interactive discussions.
• Group exercises (30%): Focused on group dynamics, games, discussions, and mock conflict resolution scenarios.
• Individual activities (15%): Involving writing, design tasks, and peer discussions.
• Supplementary materials (15%): Including videos and reading assignments.

Note: Due to the interactive nature of this course, a minimum group size of 3 participants is required.

This live, instructor-led training (online or onsite) is tailored for beginner to intermediate PCB designers and electronics engineers aiming to build a complete and controlled PCB design workflow using Altium Designer.

Participants will work on a single, connected project, progressing from initial project setup and component libraries through schematic capture, PCB layout, and verification, to manufacturing outputs and controlled production release.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Create and manage structured Altium Designer PCB projects.

• Build and validate schematic designs and component libraries.

• Configure PCB rules, routing, DRC, and manufacturing constraints.

• Generate and verify fabrication, assembly, and mechanical outputs.

• Apply practical high-speed design constraints.

• Manage engineering changes and controlled re-releases.
