Becoming a Design Thinker

This week in How to be the Difference we sat down with Carolina Alzate. Carolina is a Design Engineer with a masters in Packaging Design and a specialist in Branding & Packaging Design. Carolina is best described as a Design Thinker and she has been recognized with nine international awards, including four Pentawards (the Oscars for packaging design) from her work at her first company, ImasD.

Carolina is the founder of OpenLAB, an innovation & strategy studio that transforms and accelerates companies through innovation. Johanna and Paul talk to Carolina about her experience founding two creative companies, overcoming difficulties, and the mindset needed for success.

Carolina’s first experience with designing her own life started while choosing her career path.

In conversation with Johanna and Paul, Carolina shares her insights on networking, her methodology for success, and the importance of working in yourself.
