We are excited to announce the Phase 1 winners of our Designer Derby Challenge!
This challenge tasked innovators to present their experience with crowdsourcing and to tell us why they would be skilled candidates for guiding the design process of future crowdsourcing challenges.
These winners were chosen among our pool of applicants to advance to Phase 2 where they will soon cut their teeth on some upcoming HeroX challenges and learn about challenge design from the HeroX team. Let us all join voices in congratulating our Phase 1 winners!
- Lauren Fell
- Nick Sawyer
We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who entered the challenge. Challenge design requires a unique skill set - a combination of strong client facilitation, critical thinking, and excellent writing. There is an art to asking great questions (and listening closely to responses) to get to the root of a problem and understand the foundation of the challenge. Great challenge designers thrive off of jumping into unfamiliar technical content and translating it into something approachable by outside innovators. Congratulations again to Lauren and Nick!
