1 MANAGING STRATEGIC DESIGN Ray Holland & Busayawan Lam Palgrave Macmillan Hummingbirds can fly right, left, up, down, backwards, and even upside down.

2 USING STRATEGIC DESIGN FOR IMPROVING ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE & DRIVING CHANGE Part one:the power of strategic design planning to use strategic design Part two:contribution to branding and innovation integrating design into the organization Part three:design-driven organizations corporate responsibility and design design-driven e-business design strategy for the public and voluntary sectors IntroChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Chapter 6Chapter 7Chapter 8Chapter 9

3 PART 1: POWER & PLANNING Are designers somehow “different”?... dispel the myth Redefining design to establish its’ power to contribute to management Relationships and equality of Big-D design, holistic design thinking, and small-d design, hands-on design Managing design at operational, tactical and strategic levels The building tenets of design management strategy The 4Ds model of design strategy as a planning and control cycle IntroChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Chapter 6Chapter 7Chapter 8Chapter 9

4 ARE DESIGNERS & MANAGERS SO DIFFERENT? “ MANAGERS still tend to think of design as an artistic skill. Designers conjure up images of somewhat Bohemian young people with very individual dress and hair style, possibly immature in their attitudes and sense of responsibility...” BUT IS THERE EVIDENCE OF CHANGE? Convergence of Design and Management Thinking. IntroChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Chapter 6Chapter 7Chapter 8Chapter 9

5 REDEFINING DESIGN BIG-D DESIGN represents the ‘holistic’ design thinking which seeks to identify problems amenable to improvement by design. It may be argued that the quality of BIG-D DESIGN thinking is the key to managing organisational success small-d design, on the other hand, is defined as the ‘hands-on’ practical design activity of designers trained in such disciplines as product, interior, fashion, architecture, textiles and digital design. The two types of design are interdependent. IntroChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Chapter 6Chapter 7Chapter 8Chapter 9

6 DESIGN SHOULD BE MANAGED AT THREE INTERRELATED LEVELS IntroChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Chapter 6Chapter 7Chapter 8Chapter 9

8 PLANNING: ESTABLISH RELATIONSHIP OF ORGANIZATION & DESIGN STRATEGY IntroChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Chapter 6Chapter 7Chapter 8Chapter 9

9 THE 4Ds MODEL D etermining: Objectively assessing perception and competence in the usage of design. D efining: Establishing visions, strategic directions and opportunities for design D esigning: Using design thinking to develop strategies and solutions. D eciding: Objectively evaluating the quality of the implementations IntroChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Chapter 6Chapter 7Chapter 8Chapter 9

10 INTERRELATIONSHIPS OF THE ELEMENTS OF THE MODEL IntroChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Chapter 6Chapter 7Chapter 8Chapter 9

11 PART 2: CONTRIBUTION TO BRANDING & INNOVATION Brands which do not innovate will be hard, or even impossible to sustain. So DESIGN should drive the delivery of the brand experience and brand should drive innovation. BRINGING BRANDS TO LIFE… It is design which brings brands to life because it offers the opportunity for what Neumeier (2003) calls ‘logic and magic’. IntroChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Chapter 6Chapter 7Chapter 8Chapter 9

12 4Ds OF DESIGN-LED BRANDING D etermining: Objectively assessing the current position of a brand and the roles of design Brand Audit D efining: Establish what a brand stands for and why it will be unique, and identify opportunities for design Brand Value Proposition D esigning : Using design thinking and creativity to deliver promises and resonant experiences Brand Strategy & Brand Experience D eciding : Objectively evaluating whether a brand delivers its promises Brand Evaluation IntroChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Chapter 6Chapter 7Chapter 8Chapter 9

13 4Ds OF DESIGN-LED BRANDING MODEL IntroChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Chapter 6Chapter 7Chapter 8Chapter 9

14 INNOVATION THROUGH DESIGN & CREATIVE THINKING Innovation is “successful exploitation of ideas.” (British Standards Institute, 2008) But in order to exploit the ideas there must be some process, some method by which the ideas can be turned into reality, otherwise they remain concepts only. The challenge for management and designers therefore is to shape the ideas into practical added-value propositions for users, customers and related stakeholders. Sir George Cox told the UK government that “ DESIGN links creativity and innovation” (The Cox Report, HM Treasury, 2005). IntroChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Chapter 6Chapter 7Chapter 8Chapter 9

16 4Ds OF DESIGN-DRIVEN INNOVATION D etermining: Objectively assessing the level of readiness for innovations Innovation Audit D efining: Establishing strategic directions for innovation and identifying opportunities for design Innovation Directions & Policy D esigning : Using design thinking to create environments that support innovations and generate new concepts Innovation Culture and Teams D eciding : Rigorously assessing performance of the innovations against corporate targets Innovation Evaluation IntroChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Chapter 6Chapter 7Chapter 8Chapter 9

17 4Ds OF DESIGN-DRIVEN INNOVATION MODEL IntroChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Chapter 6Chapter 7Chapter 8Chapter 9

18 ESTABLISHING & INTEGRATING DESIGN IN THE ORGANISATION In 2012 the UK Design Council published a study showing growing recognition of the influence of design in improving quality of products and services, reducing costs, increasing competitiveness and market share which revealed that… “for every £1 businesses invest in DESIGN, they can expect over £20 increased revenues, over £4 increase in net operating profit and over £5 in increased exports” IntroChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Chapter 6Chapter 7Chapter 8Chapter 9
