Design for Human EvolutionDiscuss my challenge What we do · For businesses
I facilitate workshops and labs in which your team tackles a challenge in communication, creative work or the way work is organised. We explore alternatives with AI and shape a proposal to try out.
Discuss my team’s challengeWith Cátia Freitas · Creative Agency Lab
Where we can start
Your team needs to move beyond familiar answers and explore other ways to tackle a challenge.
AI-generated texts and ideas need to better reflect your business and the people they address.
Your team wants to understand when to turn to AI, what to delegate and how to assess what it produces.
Possible examples of work. The challenge and what we will develop are defined with your team.
How we work
I prepare activities based on your context, guide the group’s work and help compare options. The team brings its experience and decides what makes sense.

Learning by doing
The materials help people share ideas. At D4HE, I use exercises and moments of reflection so that everyone can explain what they have created and why.
The aim is to develop a proposal and practise criteria the team can use again.
How I guide a team
A team needs to find a new way of working together. Each person brings different experiences, ideas and concerns. I facilitate a process that makes room for those perspectives, shares uncertainties and builds a proposal together. No one needs to have all the answers to contribute.
Illustrative example of a possible session. It does not represent work already carried out.
A map of the different perspectives, a joint proposal and a next step with clearly assigned responsibilities.
Create the conditions for everyone to contribute, help people listen and connect ideas, and guide the move from conversation to action. The team builds and decides.
The fear of making a mistake, not knowing or having an idea rejected can make someone stay silent. I create space to share uncertainties, ask questions and experiment without demanding a perfect answer at the first attempt.
By listening to other perspectives and agreeing on small steps, the team can gain the confidence to move forward. Everyone has something to add and can also ask for help.
Valuing each person means listening to and considering their contribution. Not every idea will be chosen; the reasons behind the decision should be clear to the team.
Talk about my teamWhat I bring to your team

Discuss this formatSupport a project over time
A process that allows you to explore ideas, experiment between sessions and return to the work with what you have learnt.
The team’s workDevelop and review a proposal, with time to reflect on the process and the role of AI.
IncludesPlanning the process, working sessions and reviewing the experiments carried out between meetings.
Discuss this formatWe begin with a conversation about the challenge and the people involved. The proposal sets out the objective, format, duration, number of participants and terms. It can be in person, online or hybrid, where suitable for the work.
Who facilitates the work
I bring design, experience in education and the facilitation of creative processes to help your team think through a problem, develop ideas and choose what is worth putting into practice.
My background spans design, vocational training and international projects. At D4HE, I combine that experience with a critical exploration of AI.
Discover my backgroundWhy work with me
I combine design, learning and facilitation to help your team develop a proposal and understand the decisions that make it their own.
I help turn a conversation into a message, sketch or proposal. Having something tangible allows the team to compare options and decide what they want to try.
I prepare activities suited to the challenge and the participants’ experience. Everyone practises, reviews what they have done and explains their choices.
I guide the conversation, gather contributions and help establish shared criteria. The team takes part in building the response.
A message, proposal or prototype linked to the agreed challenge.
Compare alternatives, question AI responses and justify decisions the team can apply again.
At the outset, we define what we will develop and how we will assess it. At the end, we review the work and identify what needs testing.
