7 Principles of Complete Co-creation' Exclusive Workshop
workshop – Half day (4h) | Feb 5 – 9am | UW - Ethnic Cultural Center, Unity 2
Although co-creation is beyond the hype, and many organisations have embraced the idea of collaboration, there is still a lot of confusion on how to effectively implement co-creation.
In this 4-hour workshop you will be guided through the seven principles of complete co-creation and start planning for your real-life challenge. How can you set up your project in a co-creative way to minimise risk and maximise output? What does a complete co-creative approach mean for your current way of working, and how can you overcome barriers that occur? And, what is the difference between ‘incomplete’ and ‘complete’ co-creation? You will learn key lessons in co-creation allowing you to fully benefit from the advantages co-creation has to offer. Together with the authors of ‘The 7 Principles of Complete Co-creation’ you will create a practical co-creative plan that works for you and that can be implemented immediately!
