How to co-create creations that work for your audiences

The collaborative Enterprise Design process produces many creations. These often start with rough sketches that turn into detailed design maps over time. Principles get written down to guide design and realisation activities. Management instruments help people make the right decisions. The enterprise core map aggregates and summarises the more detailed design creations.

A collaborative Enterprise Design process only works if all co-creators can understand and relate to each other’s creations and contributions. To achieve this, all creations must be designed to make them as easily accessible and inducive to co-creation as possible.

The patterns in this category provide guidance on properties that make creations better suited for a successful collaborative Enterprise Design process.
