3. Test Design Mindset Detector
• What is the difference between Design Mindset DetectorTM and Gallup?
Design Mindset DetectorTM is useful for people whose work is collaborative, requires understanding other people's needs, creating solutions in a dynamic, changing environment, regardless of industry. The report describes those predispositions that are already developed and areas for development. Design Mindset DetectorTM is not just for everyday design people, but for everyone who creates or wants to create products and services that meet the real needs of the audience.
The tool can also be helpful for teams or organizations that combine their development with a Design Thinking approach. Knowing the strengths and weaknesses of the team makes it easier to plan effective development paths and awaken dormant potentials. The test helps to see the potential of the team or even the entire organization to implement innovative projects or work on Customer Experience.
• When should I take the Design Mindset DetectorTM test? And when is it worth repeating it?
The Design Mindset DetectorTM test is recommended for people who combine their development with the Design Thinking approach. It will be helpful for people who are going to change jobs and plan to specialize in product or service design, as well as taking their first steps in the area of UX Design and Customer Experience. It is worth repeating the test after about 12 months of development or about 6 months after changing jobs.
• How to work with the Design Mindset DetectorTM test?
The test can be purchased in two options: purchase the test itself with a report or purchase the test together with an individual mentoring session and report.
In the first case, the subject fills out a questionnaire, and then receives an individual report by e-mail. The report consists of an introductory part to the issue of Design Mindset, discusses its individual 4 areas and 9 predispositions. In the next part, individual results are presented - this is a graph illustrating all 9 predispositions that make up the individual Design Mindset of the test person and a description of their profile. The main part of the report discusses the predisposition, the results of the test person and gives recommendations for working with a given predisposition. Thanks to the recommendations contained in the report, each person who has undergone the Design Mindset DetectorTM study can independently work on developing the selected predisposition.
The second option to carry out the Design Mindset DetectorTM study is to purchase the test together with an individual mentoring session. In this scenario, after going through the questionnaire, the person undergoing the study arranges for an individual 1.5h online session with an expert. During the session, the expert explains the main assumptions of the Design Mindset, and then goes through the individual elements of the test result, creating space for self-reflection and dialogue, aiming at the best understanding of what constitutes the test results. An important element of the session is the joint determination of the best path of development and recommendations for the development of particular predispositions that the subject considers most relevant in his case. The Clifton Strengths tool (known in Poland as the Gallup test) is designed to identify natural talents. The test is general and not targeted. Thanks to the test, the test person finds out which of the 34 talents are the strongest in him or her. Design Mindset DetectorTM examines specific, curated predispositions that support work in the Design Thinking approach. 9 different predispositions are measured and the results present each on a scale from 1 to 10. The fundamental assumption is that all people have these predispositions, but not all have them equally awakened and developed.

REMEMBER!
By joining mentoring, you are joining the Design Mentorship community for life! In the community we organize meetings such as:
-networking,
-Q&A,
-meetings with experts.
We also share knowledge and inspiration, as well as assignments.
OUR RECOMMENDATION - Design your career path!
Our development model is very successful and the results of the work of our Mentees. That is why we have created an original design model of the career path in Design Mentorship based on a design approach.
The following path helps you get to know and understand yourself and tailor your skill acquisition to your needs. We look at disguise practically and know that shared relationships have great power!
1. Emphasize
Diagnosing where you are, your resources and needs. In the first 1:1 meeting, we talk about what is behind you, where you are and where you are going, in order to best help you develop and match the Mentor with whom you will have an initial interview to check the “flow”. We also want to know your “why” to see if mentoring is right for you
2. definierar
Get to know yourself and your strengths better thanks to a one-on-one session with certified Gallup trainer Julia Lenarczyk. You also have the opportunity to explore your design predisposition with the Design Mindset Detector. This knowledge will not only help you in your development during the mentoring, but also after it is completed and in your further development.
3. Ideas
This is where the mentoring work begins. The first meeting is very important. With the DM Growth tool you will set a goal, direction, write down expectations and fears. You will establish a work plan based on your needs. This is a very important step to discuss specifics in a safe place.
4. Prototype
Our DM Growth tool is designed to work together so you can see your progress and what you have achieved. It is worth writing down thoughts, reflections to which you can return and organize in one place! Remember — mentoring is a collaborative process, so make the most of it! Mentoring is not just about passing on knowledge that you can acquire from other sources. We have taken care of a reliable source of knowledge, that is, the opportunity to use the courses of the Interaction Design Foundation. You can always go within your scope to have time to discuss, reflect and act with a Mentor.
5. Implement
At the end of the mentoring, you receive a certificate of completion from us, as well as a Designer Card, which contains information about your skills, the skills you want to develop (even if you have not had the opportunity until now) and the recommendations of the Mentor or the organizer of the DM.
In DM, we have created a Talent Base to help with recruitment, as well as to support people in gaining experience in the projects we run.
