The challenge for Hellmann was to create a unique recruitment experience able to attract the right IT talent, communicate the company's corporate culture as being built on next-level tech and to position the brand as a future-ready organization. By leveraging the metaverse as the destination for this experience, Hellmann was able to showcase their ambitions and appeal to talent looking to work at the forefront of innovation for logistics.

Rethinking Recruiting

Challenge

Hellmann’s recruiting event in the metaverse consisted of three parts: a clear storyline guiding people through the experience, a virtual world to explore and the ability to openly interact with Hellmann employees. Collaborating across strategy, storytelling, design and programming, our collaborative insights and ideas translated into models, interfaces, interactions, user flows and experiences in only eight weeks.

Building Blocks

Solution

Hellmann’s metaverse world saw some truly inspiring moments by guests, employees, competitors, partners and talent. It received massive amounts of earned media and press around the event. Hellmann has continued to build and practice internal use of metaverse environments for further collaborative tasks and events.

Creating a Design Thinking Movement

As enterprise computing continues to evolve at breakneck speeds, tech powerhouses like <a href="https://blogs.cisco.com/tag/design-thinking" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cisco</a> are looking for new ways to stay lean, fast and hungry.

Opportunity 
Cisco was ready to create a transformation from within. The company has long had a passion for creating great products and has seen success with incorporating design methods. But current silos and systems were slowing them down, so it was time for a shake-up.
Outcome 
Together we developed and launched the Cisco Design Thinking program: a series of digital and tangible experiences that gave Cisco employees, partners and clients a new set of tools and methods to work better together.

The start of a movement
We were involved from the start, creating the strategy for bootstrapping the initiative, engaging stakeholders and tailoring design thinking practices for Cisco.
We engaged Cisco’s design leaders and key stakeholders in one-on-one sessions and workshops to develop the vision and program for Cisco Design Thinking. This initial phase helped create a Design Thinking program focused on the specific needs, challenges and opportunities for over 70,000 Cisco employees. These carefully orchestrated workshops yielded alignment, ownership and buy-in that energized the larger organization.

&nbsp;
Creating a native and unified design thinking practice
The first phase centered on tailoring design thinking approaches into a unified Cisco Design Thinking practice, including framework and tools and crafting a playbook.
Creating a Design Thinking framework and approach that felt truly native to Cisco was a critical step in rallying core constituencies and ensuring cultural fit for the long haul. Tailoring the framework was also an opportunity to communicate and highlight to beginners, newcomers and experienced practitioners key facets of design thinking critical to their success at Cisco.
The Cisco Design leadership decided to create an actual playbook to make Design Thinking approachable, engaging, practical and tangible. The result of a collective effort, the Design Thinking Playbook has become a cornerstone of Cisco’s Design Thinking program and a key adoption vector.
The Cisco Design Playbook teaches what Design Thinking is, and how to use it at Cisco. It offers practical tools for running workshops, understanding users and ideating in a human centric way. To date, 3,000 copies have been printed and shared with Cisco employees—and a second printing has already been started.

Sharing the value of design
In addition to materials, we designed a creative space to use with clients and fellow employees. Each wall reflects the Cisco Design framework and its phases, as illustrated by the story of the Golden Gate bridge. The bridge is iconic for San Francisco and is a big part of the spirit of Cisco.

“The Cisco Design Thinking Workshop taught us that it’s no longer about building the capabilities, but to empathize with our customers’ emotions how they think about engaging with Cisco. Learning about Cisco Design Thinking is a nice side benefit, but the ability to generate the valuable breakthrough ideas is priceless. I highly recommend other product managers and program leaders who want to win over customers for life to fully take advantage of this approach.” – Christina Wong, Head of CDX at Cisco describes the initiative.

"It’s when we put ourselves to think and feel like our customers, many out of the box and creative ideas emerge through the process."

Results
A year in, design thinking has now become a practice shared by thousands of Cisco employees across the organization, including product, sales and services teams.
