Why Service Design Thinking

Claus Raasted is an experience and behavior designer who creates Live Action Role Play (LARP) events, where groups of strangers come together to collaborate on co-creating their shared experience. This is especially relevant when facilitating the design process with groups of people who are not used to working together (such as different divisions, company partners, or even community members).
We discuss how to help a group of collaborators become comfortable enough as a team to co-create something great.
