A custom impulse workshop makes AI tangible for the design team and creates the foundation for a holistic AI strategy.
AI cannot be embedded through slides. Different levels of prior knowledge had to become one shared, actionable starting point.
We designed a workshop specifically for Festo, using custom micro-applications, active participation and direct relevance to design work.
The workshop creates shared experience; subsequent interviews translate it into needs, fields of action and strategy.
Goals, content and applications are developed specifically for Festo and the design team.
Foundations, relevant developments and concrete design examples provide orientation.
Participants generate images themselves and experience AI directly through their own actions.
Employee perspectives are captured systematically and synthesized.
Needs, opportunities and prerequisites are connected into a holistic target picture.
Festo is a global family-owned company specializing in automation technology and technical education. Learning, innovation and developing people are part of its company context.
Custom image-generation micro-applications lowered technical barriers. Participants could experiment, compare results and discuss opportunities for their own work.
Structured interviews capture workflows, opportunities and concerns first-hand. The findings form a target picture for useful application fields, required capabilities and step-by-step adoption.
A shared starting point for the design team and a structured path from the first AI impulse to a needs-driven, holistic strategy.
