The Data & AI Design Bench is an interactive platform that brings real-time strategy development to your training. You’ll work with pre-designed templates on Miro Board, turning theory into practical insights you can apply immediately.
You don’t just learn what to do—you’ll experience how to do it.
How it Works:
Immediate Application: Practice with real-world use cases you can adapt to your business.
Interactive Tools: Use ready-made templates to solve real problems in real time.
Hands-On Learning: Alternate between 45-minute lectures and exercises, ensuring balanced learning and action.
Collaboration: Work together on Miro, exploring data use cases and building strategies with peers.
Why It Stands Out:
Action-Oriented: Every session moves you towards a data-driven strategy and understanding.
Adaptable: Method and canvases fit any industry, ensuring flexibility for your needs.
Practical Results: Leave with actionable strategic knowledge, ready to design your data & AI business.
With the Design Bench, you won’t just learn—you’ll do.
“The 2-day advanced seminar Data Business is a hidden gem among strategy consulting professionals.
The skills imparted make it easier to engage in client projects with both professionalism and relevance. The benefits of the content become apparent quickly – in both traditional and agile strategy projects. The seminar excels with an ideal mix of practical examples, methodological expertise, experience sharing, and a generous dose of fun!
This hidden gem could very well become the standard in strategy consulting.”
