TEACHING THE FUTURE

JON THAM
Jon Tham has been coaching Design Thinking (DT) since its inception in Malaysia in 2013. He was picked among the pioneers in Malaysia to be trained to coach Design Thinking by representatives from The Hasso Plattner Institute, Germany in 2012. Since then, Jon has coached participants from the government, private sector, entrepreneurs and fresh graduates in tackling various real world challenges. He has seen many ideas generated during the Design Thinking workshop turn into a product or service. He has also seen many ideas eventually applied by other parties, which means that the participants in the workshop actually discovered the problem first. Jon is also a popular culture artist, dabbles in various goods trading, volunteerism and runs an advertising and graphic design firm from his home since 1999 while being a hands-on dad. He conducts DT in English as well as Bahasa Malaysia. |
