Why this topic matters
Service design fails when people are not joined up: A journey map is only useful if people believe it. A blueprint is only useful if teams act on it. A service concept is only useful if decision-makers support it. That support often starts in a workshop! Workshops are where service designers build shared understanding.
They help teams move from opinion to evidence.
