Main Page - WikID, the Industrial Design Engineering wiki About Us IDEO has been working in the social sector for more than ten years. Recently, it became clear that launching a nonprofit organization focused solely on social innovation would allow IDEO to make an even bigger impact on global poverty. Enter, IDEO.org! Through Human-Centered Design projects, we're bringing stability, hope, and dignity to communities around the world that are wrestling with poverty. Along the way, we’re sharing what we learn and accomplish with everyone—so we’re all learning together. And through the IDEO.org Fellowship Program, we’re fostering a community of future leaders with expertise in design thinking, then letting them loose on the world. To establish IDEO.org, IDEO provided substantial seed funding.
Design Socially | SocialDesignCares.com It’s time to get social! We now know that designing socially means creating with the community not for the community, so when we put our social design hats on, we aren’t really designers in a traditional sense, instead we become design facilitators – that is the community becomes the designer and you become their guide through the crazy thing we call the design process. Read more below about the social design process and how to guide your community through their design process. Concept Generation With the community, determine possible design concepts that may be worthy of developing further. Building a Design Community Establish a community hub, that may be composed of relevant experts, community groups, social entrepreneurs, international advisors, businesses, district health boards and the like. Community Concept Review & Redesign Validate and review design proposals with the community hub. Developing a Community Implementation Plan Community Resource Sourcing Community Implementation

The Change Curve - Change Management Training from MindTools Accelerating Change, and Increasing its Likelihood of Success Initially, many people want to cling to the past. © iStockphoto/gunnar Here's the scenario: You have invested vast amounts of time and dollars in the latest systems and processes; you have trained everyone; and you have made their lives so much easier (or so you think.) The fact is that organizations don't just change because of new systems, processes or new organization structures. As someone needing to make changes within your organization, the challenge is not only to get the systems, process and structures right, but also to help and support people through these individual transitions (which can sometimes be intensely traumatic, and involve loss of power and prestige... and even employment.) The easier you can make this journey for people, the sooner your organization will benefit, and the more likely you are to be successful. Here, we first look at the theory behind the Change Curve.

Oksimoron Oksimoron, birbiriyle çelişen ya da tamamen zıt iki kavramın bir arada kullanılması ve bu şekilde oluşturulmuş ifade.[1] Bazen anlamı kuvvetlendirmek için veya edebî sanat yapmak amacıyla kullanılır.

Perhaps you started a new job or enrolled in a night school program. Researchers have noted that this is common, and that many of us go through a predictable cycle of emotions when we choose to make a change. When you know what emotions to expect in these situations, it's much easier to cope with them. About the Tool Don Kelley and Daryl Conner developed their Emotional Cycle of Change model in the mid-1970s, and they outlined it in the "1979 Annual Handbook for Group Facilitators." The cycle has five stages, shown in figure 1 below. Stage 1: Uninformed optimism.
