Transform Your Business with Strategic Design
ESE Designs specialises in Product and Services strategy, guiding startups and global corporations on their success journey through strategic design, by making humans a key part of the innovation process.
The engineer, and more generally the designer, is concerned with how things ought to be – how they ought to be in order to attain goals, and to function.

A proven approach to growth
Opportunity diagnostics
Mapping out the as-is situation of the end-to-end service, with insights from customer and staff research, to reveal opportunities and pain points costing you time and money.
Collaborative innovation
The best ideas come from diverse points of view looking at the same problem together. A series of workshops re-imagining the future with your team will yield the best ideas for your business.
Alignment
Expert facilitators shape and run an alignment session with your team to reveal issues and opportunities, and get everyone on the same page with what the priorities need to be.
Reduced exposure
Test concepts with real customers using inexpensive prototypes to quickly learn what is most likely to work (or not) and only invest in developing winning ideas, reducing your exposure.
