But empathy is a moving target: feelings, mindsets and behaviors are constantly in flux. That\u2019s why any strategy based on a fixed persona or insight will have limited success. Instead, companies must weave together significant moments from multiple perspectives in order to map a composite journey. &nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Journeymapping is a user-centered approach to document the way emotion, perception and behavior change over time. By highlighting both painful episodes and positive events, the process exposes vulnerabilities and suggests areas for improvement. And because journeymaps are visual and narrative artifacts, the methodology is a powerful way for organizations to plan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">In this two-part class, students will create their own journeymaps, using the arts-informed method Caleb Brown developed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Topics covered include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">Conducting authentic \u201cvisual interviews\u201d of customers as well as internal stakeholders.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">Inviting participants to create hand-drawn paths to represent their experience.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">Coding paths so that they can be represented mathematically. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">Finding an appropriate metaphor for your map.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">Organizing the map with bands of positive and negative affect.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">Superimposing hand-drawn paths from interviewees.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">Identifying significant patterns and moments.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">Illuminating the larger human and data stories at play.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">If your company is looking for opportunities to be more empathic and drive innovation, this is a simple, visual protocol to learn. It keeps real people at the core, and displays directional insight (including quantitative data) in an appealing visual way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner]<div class=\"gap\" style=\"line-height: 50px; height: 50px;\"><\/div>[vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Who is this class for?<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"gap\" style=\"line-height: 10px; height: 10px;\"><\/div><div class=\"hr-thin style-line accent-border-color\" style=\"width: 100%;border-top-width: 5px;\"><\/div><div class=\"gap\" style=\"line-height: 10px; height: 10px;\"><\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Any<b> <\/b>visual thinker on the front lines of design communication: product managers, account managers, producers, designers or user experience professionals.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"gap\" style=\"line-height: 50px; height: 50px;\"><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;]<div class=\"gap\" style=\"line-height: 30px; height: 30px;\"><\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Who will be teaching the course?<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"gap\" style=\"line-height: 10px; height: 10px;\"><\/div><div class=\"hr-thin style-line accent-border-color\" style=\"width: 100%;border-top-width: 5px;\"><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner]<div class=\"gap\" style=\"line-height: 30px; height: 30px;\"><\/div>[vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;428&#8243; border_color=&#8221;grey&#8221; img_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;]<div class=\"gap\" style=\"line-height: 10px; height: 10px;\"><\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Caleb Brown<\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"gap\" style=\"line-height: 10px; height: 10px;\"><\/div><div class=\"hr-thin style-line accent-border-color\" style=\"width: 40%;border-top-width: 5px;\"><\/div><div class=\"gap\" style=\"line-height: 10px; height: 10px;\"><\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Boston, MA<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Caleb Brown has been building human interfaces for 20 years and still gets enthused about making stuff feel good and work better. <\/span><span class=\"s2\">A Harvard-trained biologist and an honors graduate of Brown University in art and religious studies, Caleb also received a printmaking degree from the Kyoto University of Art in Japan.<\/span> <span class=\"s1\">As a cartoonist, Caleb applies his skills to communication problems of all shapes and sizes.
