Work - Human Centered Design Toolkit - IDEO - 1 views

  •  
    "Human Centered Design Toolkit Close For years, companies and other organizations have used Human-Centered Design to arrive at innovative business solutions. Funded by IDE as part of a grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and in collaboration with non-profit groups ICRW and Heifer International, IDEO relied on this approach to improve the lives of communities in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. The resulting HCD Toolkit helps NGO staff and volunteers understand people's needs in new ways, find innovative solutions to meet these needs, and deliver solutions with financial sustainability in mind. The free kit is divided into four sections that bolster listening skills, running workshops, and implementing ideas. The HCD Toolkit contains the elements to Human-Centered Design, a process used for decades to create new solutions for multi-national corporations. This process has created ideas such as the HeartStart defibrillator, Cleanwell natural antibacterial products, and the Blood Donor System for the Red Cross--innovations that have enhanced the lives of millions of people. This process has been specially-adapted for NGOs and social enterprises that work with impoverished communities in Africa, Asia, and Latin America and compiled into a Toolkit available for download here or for order at cost at www.blurb.com."

      Eliz what we were discussing about grass roots documentaries! - the real Slum dog millionaire budgets of $0.00 but a Zillion tons of energy, good will and dedication
  • Local news, interests and connections between consumers and advertisers are at the heart of both the failing traditional media saddled with legacy costs and the nimble Web-based contenders. The value of all things local has been woefully underestimated. It has been devalued in print and television, which can't quite make the leap to digital, and botched on the Internet--where it seems impossible to capitalize on the hyperpersonal in bloggers and tweeters run amok. What could be more relevant than what is going on in consumers' own backyard? Institutional media (newspapers and TV stations) has failed to connect with local as it is being redefined by consumers who are obsessing over the interactive ME-dia they care about most: their needs, family and friends. "The future of local is intensely personal. It is about what is within 1,000 feet of where you stand. Local is centered on the individual," says Outside.in CEO Mark Josephson
  • The shift of core ad dollars to digital could be even more pronounced if the major traditional media are not able to integrate new interactive products into their bundle. Holding on to advertiser and consumers isn't enough; everyone must be interactively engaged.

ChangeThis :: Live the Juggle Life - 0 views

  • "In this scrambled up world of work there are no rules and few walls. And that means the key to business success is totally up for negotiation. It’s time to rethink the best skills to have in any executive or entrepreneur’s toolbox. Forget an MBA from a flash business school, a talent for spreadsheets, or an aptitude for social networking. Think Juggle!"
