Innovation publique et pensée design, l'innovation sociale au service des territoires (Coursera)

Offered by ESSEC Business School,
Innovation publique et pensée design, l'innovation sociale au service des territoires (Coursera)

Les collectivités territoriales et les services de l'Etat sont confrontés à de multiples enjeux : crise des finances publiques, augmentation des dépenses sociales, défiance croissante des administrés, concurrence des solutions proposées par des communautés numériques très agiles. La bonne nouvelle, c'est que des solutions existent pour faire mieux avec moins ! L'innovation publique, c'est possible grâce aux apports de ce que l'on appelle la pensée design, qui permet de repenser le service offert à l'usager.

Syllabus

WEEK 1
Innovation publique et pensée design
Nous allons dans cet épisode poser le cadre de la réflexion, en nous intéressant à l’innovation publique d’une part, à la pensée design d’autre part, et à la façon dont la pensée design peut contribuer à l’innovation publique. Qu’est-ce que l’innovation publique ? Comment se situe-t-elle par rapport à l’innovation sociale ? Et par rapport à l’innovation territoriale ? D’où vient le design thinking ? Quelle relations entretient-il avec l’innovation publique ? En quoi consiste-t-il ?

WEEK 2
Etape 1 de l'approche design : l'immersion / inspiration
Nous allons dans cet épisode faire un zoom sur la 1ère étape de l’approche du design thinking, celle de l’immersion ou “inspiration” dans le vocabulaire d’IDEO. Qu’apporte cette phase d’immersion/inspiration ? Quels en sont les acteurs ? Quels sont les outils et méthodes à disposition pour aller au plus près du besoin des parties prenantes ? Quelles sont les grandes étapes de la phase d’immersion/inspiration ? Et enfin, quels en sont les enjeux majeurs ?

WEEK 3
Etape 2 de l'approche design : l'idéation / imagination
Nous allons dans cet épisode faire un zoom sur la 2ème étape de l’approche du design thinking, celle de l’idéation, autrement celle où l’on va chercher à faire émerger des idées. Quels sont les facteurs de succès d’une phase d’idéation/ imagination ? Quels sont les outils ou techniques pour générer des idées ? Quelles sont les difficultés inhérentes à cette phase d’idéation ? Voilà les questions auxquelles nous allons chercher à répondre dans cet épisode.

WEEK 4
Etape 3 de l'approche design : l'expérimentation / implementation
Nous allons dans cet épisode faire un zoom sur la 3ème étape de l’approche du design thinking, celle de l’expérimentation ou implementation dans le langage d’Ideo. C’est l’étape au cours de laquelle on va aller à la rencontre des futurs utilisateurs du service pour tester la solution et l’améliorer par un processus itératif. Que teste-t-on pendant la phase d’expérimentation ? Comment mener cette phase à bien ? Qu’apporte le prototypage ? Comment mesurer la pertinence d’une solution ?

Digital Product Management: Modern Fundamentals (Coursera)

Not so long ago, the job of product manager was about assessing market data, creating requirements, and managing the hand-off to sales/marketing. Maybe you’d talk to a customer somewhere in there and they’d tell you what features they wanted. But companies that manage product that way are dying. Being a product person today is a new game, and product managers are at the center of it. Today, particularly if your product is mostly digital, you might update it several times a day. Massive troves of data are available for making decisions and, at the same time, deep insights into customer motivation and experience are more important than ever.
