What?

The Heart-Centered Design Thinking Series, hosted by VCUarts Qatar Continuing Education Program, offers inspiring workshops led by internationally recognized designer and educator Peter Gould. Rooted in his pioneering heart-centered design approach, these sessions invite participants to explore how creativity, strategic design, and values can be aligned to foster meaningful impact in both education and creative industries.

Through practical activities, case studies, and design thinking tools, participants gain new perspectives on purposeful alignment in their professional journeys—whether as educators shaping learning experiences or as emerging creative professionals navigating their careers.

This series is a valuable opportunity for continuing education, empowering participants to:
– Develop a heart-centered designer mindset for lasting professional and personal growth.
– Learn strategies to elevate projects with clarity, creativity, and purpose.
– Connect design practice with values-driven innovation in an age of increasing distraction.

By merging global design leadership with human-centered insight, the series nurtures professionals who seek not only success but also holistic, values-aligned fulfillment in their work.
