Introducing The Design Thinking Workshop Kit

Online Design Thinking Tools & Methods

We're excited to launch the first in a series of Workshop Kits, that will help you run your own hands-on sessions using popular design methodologies, together with Marvel!

Thousands of companies and educational institutions around the world use Marvel in workshops every year. It's massively inspiring to see the likes of Laboratoria, Design Museum and initiatives like Design Club lead the charge. We've taken some of the best ideas from those sessions to help you create your very own Design Thinking workshop.

This hands-on workshop will give you and your team a simple, fun and reusable process using the basic principles of Design Thinking for creating new features, apps, websites or products.

It will take you from nurturing empathy, rapid idea generation, right the way through to sketching and creating interactive prototypes in sessions that can fit into an hour.

In true Marvel fashion, it's been designed to allow anyone, regardless of experience or job role to run or join their own workshop. Whether it's product, marketing, sales or support, everyone can get stuck in with writing, sketching and prototyping, either on paper using our apps or in the browser.

Our kit includes everything you need to run a Design Thinking Workshop;

Workbook: A printable PDF, complete with writing templates for each stage of the Design Thinking process and sketch sheets for paper prototyping
Workshop Slides: A handy presentation to run on your big screen during the session that keeps pace with the agenda
Presentation Template Slides: Once you've finished, each team can use these slides to present back the work they've done in the session. Or simply share a Marvel link with everyone.
Facilitator Guide: This helps you prepare for the session, with email templates, tips and more to help run and coordinate the Design Thinking Workshop!

We believe that making tools and processes easier will democratise design and make it more accessible, leading to better ideas and faster innovation. Grab the kit and get started!
