Many organizations struggle with the dynamics and the complexity of todays social ecosystems that connect everyone and everything, everywhere and all the time. Facing challenges at the intersection of business models, technical developments, and human needs, modern enterprises must overcome the siloed thinking and isolated efforts of the past, and instead address their relationships to people holistically. In Intersection, Milan Guenther introduces a Strategic Design approach that aligns the overarching efforts of Branding, Enterprise Architecture, and Experience Design, and sets them on a common course to shape tomorrows enterprises.This book gives designers, entrepreneurs, innovators, and leaders a model and a comprehensive vocabulary for tackling such deep-rooted challenges. The Enterprise Design framework cuts through the complexity of Strategic Design work, showing how to navigate key aspects and bridge diverging viewpoints. In 9 case studies, the author looks at the way companies like SAP, BBVA, IKEA, and Jeppesen (a Boeing Company) apply design thinking and practice to shape their enterprises. Moving from strategy to conceptual design and concrete results, Intersection shows what is relevant at which point, and what expertise to involve.* Teaches how to align business strategy with Brand Identity, Customer Experience, and Enterprise Architecture initiatives as part of a consolidated enterprise-wide design practice to achieve stakeholder value* Provides a framework for designing systems, products and services as the building blocks of a consistent and coherent experience for all stakeholders in the wider enterprise, joining strategic considerations with the delivery of tangible outcomes* Explains how to make results such as websites, apps, objects, platforms, or environments part of a larger system that orchestrates enterprise touchpoints with people

Table of Contents

Intersection is an aptly named book, both in its content and the evolving world of leading innovation that it describes. This book explains why new programs like ours are changing the form, content, and purposes for business education. Businesses need to challenge and rethink nearly everything about their processes, procedures, strategies, and cultures in order to successfully lead into the future.

Nathan shedroff, program chair, MBA in Design strategy, Oalifornia college of Art

Intersection is a landmark book on how to design enterprises in todays hyper-connected world. Founded on the relationships between identity, architecture and experiences, Milan Guenthers work explains both the change in mindset and practical approaches that are needed for success. If you are still designing your enterprise from the inside outwards, Intersection will convince you to think again. If you are already designing your enterprise outside-in, use this wonderful book to validate your work.

Chris Potts, author of FruITion and RecrEAtion

If you think that words like cross-channel, ecosystem, or bridge experience have no place in the world of large-scale corporate strategies, this is the book for you.

Intersection reframes enterprise-level design challenges through the lens of complexity, and provides us with a thorough interdisciplinary framework and a holistic approach to Enterprise Information Architecture that bridges business, technology and people into one seamless, dynamic design process. A must read.

Andrea Resmini & Luca Rosati, authors of Pervasive Information Architecture

This innovative book will give you a clear vision of organizations as interaction-driven businesses. Reading Intersection will enlighten you with deep insights into how to manage design in our contemporary world. First, you will understand that all large-scale design projects have an impact on organizational design and need to be managed as such: as Enterprise Design projects.

Second, this book conveyswhat most business people avoid to seethat any enterprise starts as an abstract intangible concept, but will only come to life through tangible signs, things, and places.

Third, you will understand better how designers think in systems, what is holistic thinking, and how design skills are useful for managing the interaction between all stakeholders by aligning identity, architecture, and experience of your enterprise.

Dr. Brigitte Borja de Mozota, Design Management institute Life Fellow / Universit Paris i / Ecole Parsons

Sustainable enterprises increasingly depend on a process incorporating inter-disciplinary knowledge on both strategic and operative levels. This book merges valuable insights from various perspectives into a holistic framework.

Introduction Why Did We Call this Book Intersection When Jenifer Niles then - photo 3

Introduction
Why Did We Call this Book Intersection?

When Jenifer Niles, then my editor at Morgan Kaufmann, proposed that name, I was intrigued.

This is a book about design, clearly. But it touches many adjacent or related areas, by approaching problems from different perspectives, aiming to bridge viewpoints and concerns, and connecting design to todays complex social ecosystems.

Therefore, the title expresses very well one of the key themes of this publication: looking beyond the immediate task, beyond your own comfort zone and background, beyond a briefing or project scope, and embracing viewpoints and practices other than your own.

Intersection gives you a thinking model, a methodological framework, and a vocabulary to do just that. It is a resource to apply design thinking and practice to challenges you consider relevant and important to tackle. It promotes both a mindset and an approach that enables you to take a step back, and look at the big picture of everything that matters when approaching a difficult design challenge. The face of companies, organizations, public services, and other types of enterprise is changing. Formerly clear lines are fading awaybetween online and offline, internal and external, owned and shared, customer and user, social and business, branding and operations. When thinking holistically about a complex challenge, such distinctions just dont seem to make much sense anymore.

One of the immediate consequences of these shifts is the need to align, bridge and connect; more and more professionals are calling themselves architects, designers, or consultants. If you are among those, you inevitably face the challenge of transforming ecosystems, regardless of your particular background, focus area, or level in an organization. Such systemic challenges go well beyond the problems of designing products, web sites, or services in isolation.
