What our students say

It helped me unpack and showcase an existing process where the focus on onboarding didn’t allow people to visualise the troubles of those who  were kicked out of the relationship due to long periods of latency. We helped the business side to create a new process to get such users back in, instead of being kicked out and being treated as new!

It provided me with a framework which I could use to engage my colleagues and add the right amount of friction to each step by forcing us to consider all the requirements to deliver it.

It helped me identify improvements for onboarding new hires. Ultimately, it guided alignment within the department, gap for improved trainings, and what new resources were missing for new hires.

I have applied this with an auto manufacturer here in Pakistan. The client is a JV with Changan Auto, largest chinese auto maker by volume. The customer journey expanded to 57 journey steps with extensive pre work followed by a 3 day workshop. The plan and ideation coming out of the whole effort were phenomenal and appreciated and owned by the CEO.

Praise for Practical Experience Blueprinting

Blueprinting helped me unpack and showcase an existing process and allow people to visualize the troubles of our users. It helped the business side create a new process.

—Principal Manager, Business Transformation, Government

Practical Blueprinting gave me the right language to get the buy-in from leadership and stakeholders. The template was easy and allowed us to externalize things that were boxed up institutional knowledge and collectively raise the business acumen for everyone. That was priceless. The blueprint became a conversation piece driving healthy conversations and conflicts that elevated the quality of collaboration.  

—Innovation Strategist, Consulting 

It’s easy to talk about customer journeys. It is difficult to map them. But using Practical Blueprinting makes it easier.

—Chief Service Officer, Information Technology Consulting

We transformed our entire global talent-acquisition organization strategy using service design that started with a blueprinting session!
