http://www.idoart.dk/?p=24522 I den forgangne uge har vi på Designskolen Kolding haft fornemt besøg af den hollandske design duo, Lernert & Sander . Disse to herrer havde arrangeret en workshop, hvor vi fik til opgave at lave en rip-off version af et af deres værker, ved blot at ændre 3 elementer. Derudover var der det dogme, at rip-off versionen skulle være en kampagne. Mange af resultaterne er lavet på 2 dage og ikke mindst, under ret primitive kår, derfor er billedkvaliteten derefter. Dette taget i betragtning, synes jeg, at der er blevet lavet nogle ret imponerende og interessante ting. Jeg har lagt originalen op først og derefter rip-off versionen.

Today we are in the news: http://borsen.dk/arkiv/artikel/3194843/ The article describes how Graphic Facilitation is a field in rapid growth. Article two today is about how Exec. MBA students at http://www.avt.dk/ are trained to use visualisation to be better engage employees. And not just about visuals – but how these simple techniques is a true leadership skill. http://www.blog.biggerpicture.dk/increased-attention-on-graphic-facilitaiton-in-denmark/

Bigger Picture

Roberto Verganti’s work of design-driven innovation strategy is an example of how to pursue radical innovation – and thereby sustain a long-term competitive advantage. [1] Verganti approaches innovation differently than the usual innovation strategies. These strategies often see innovation from a technological perspective, where the innovation is understood technological – and perhaps also market-wise (see for example innovation classifications for traditional classifications of innovation, which Verganti describes as 1-dimensional). For Verganti radical innovation is not only a question about disrupting technology or market capabilities. Instead radical innovation is about innovating meaning – and how to propose innovations to customers that they did know they needed. For Verganti it is necessary for companies to innovate more than the utilitarian dimension of products. http://munkholmplusrisgaard.dk/

MunkholmPlusRisgaard | En blog om innovation.

http://www.innovationexcellence.com/blog/2011/10/04/to-innovate-think-differently/ 66 in Share 29 To think differently, collaborate. When it comes to innovation, organizations sometime think there can be a “magic formula” that can propel them from good to great or transform them from a middling player in the marketplace to the market leader. Sure – it would be great if every organization was helmed by a Steve Jobs or a Marc Zuckerberg…people who absolutely see ahead of the curve and have the relentless drive to build to their vision and innovative ideas. The Harvard Business Review recently came out with an article that pointed to this kind of thinker…one who thinks differently in its profile of Jeff Dyer and Hal Gregerson’s work, The Innovator’s DNA …as a recognizable (and unique) phenomenon.

Consumers don't expect brands to be flawless. In fact, consumers will embrace brands that are FLAWSOME*: brands that are still brilliant despite having flaws; even being flawed (and being open about it) can be awesome. Brands that show some empathy, generosity, humility, flexibility, maturity, humor, and (dare we say it) some character and humanity. Two key drivers are fueling the FLAWSOME trend: HUMAN BRANDS : Everything from disgust at business to the influence of online culture (with its honesty and immediacy), is driving consumers away from bland, boring brands in favor of brands with some personality. http://trendwatching.com/briefing/

What does Aarhus University and Arriva have in common? Well, more than a little actually. Both work in the field of helping people reach their destination – one literally and one metaphorically. That's why we’ve decided to let the two join forces in a new recruiting campaign for AU!

The Dieline Awards 2011: First Place - Christmas Absinthe 2010 - TheDieline.com - Package Design Blog

Description: For our 12th Christmas gift we resurrected the glory days of Absinthe and created a bespoke single batch of only 250 bottles. We exhumed some old-school printers who worked their craft die stamping the inks and embossing pure cotton fibre paper. “Absinthe, mother of all happiness, O infinite liquor, you glint in my glass green and pale like the eyes of the mistress I once loved…” (Gustave Kahn) Available later this year in a limited second batch.

In a recent survey, European and American CEOs didn’t show any interest on the insight generation capability of their companies. The “strategic insight generation process” wasn’t included in their top ten priorities. As demonstrated by many behavioral studies, human beings can remember no more than 3-5 items at time. If you are not in the top 10, you are irrelevant. Peter Drucker said 11 years ago: “business people stand on the treshold of the knowledge society. In this society, a company’s competitive advantage will come from an historically underdeveloped asset: the ability to capture and apply insights”.
