ABOUT SARAH'S CLASS:
Great design is invisible.
Design is not about what a product looks like; it's about understanding and outcomes. It has the power to communicate ideas, influence people, and impact your business. But too often, we put too much emphasis on how something looks. We let the message get stifled by colors, fonts, and layouts.
As attention spans shrink and increased screen time changes how we consume information, a design thinking approach has the potential to help us get customers, colleagues, and clients to understand our message and take action.
You don't need to work at IDEO or Apple to design innovative solutions to complex problems. Nor do you need to go to MIT or Stanford's d.school to learn design methodology. In this class, Sarah Doody leverages her 15-year background in user experience design to teach you how to go beyond aesthetic and truly think like a designer.
WHO THIS CLASS IS FOR:
This class is for creatives of all levels: visual designers, entrepreneurs, those considering a career change to the design field, design team members, clients working with designers, and professionals looking to apply design thinking to yield standout work.
