The case series describes four service design projects to show how IDEO has developed and codified a series of design methods, which constitute a toolbox from which teams can pick and choose, according to the innovation project.Pedagogical Objectives: The case study aims to: · Reinforce the notion of the five-step "Innovation Process" that can be used for any design project, whether it is a service or a product. (The five steps of the IDEO Process are: Observe ® Synthesize ® Generate Ideas ® Refine ® Implement). · Highlight the differences between product and service design, and the subtle differences in the respective processes. · Introduce the notion of IDEO "methods" as a set of interchangeable tools to be used according to the type of project being worked on, and identify when is it best to use them.
