It’s an indispensable tool for Design Thinking as well as for facilitation or moderation. At the HPI d-school, you’ll find it in every room: the timer. A five-minute brainstorming session? A meeting that should last no more than 30 minutes? Just set the timer quickly and off you go.
The timer helps you let ideas flow freely or structure a meeting efficiently, but also brings it to a decisive close. Because more time usually doesn’t lead to a better result.
What we use daily in analog form at the HPI d-school is now also available digitally in the appealing d-school design: available for download to your own computer or for use as a timer on your smartphone. This way, you can structure meetings with your team as well as your moderation or facilitation with smooth time management.
You can download the timer, save it locally, and then use it in any browser by double-clicking the file. We recommend Google Chrome.
Thanks to Samuel Tschepe for the AI-powered programming of this helpful tool.
