Our first steps
A brief report about the first three weeks of our project!
Week 6: total 10 working hours
4 February we had the initial meeting with the Demola community. An inspiring event where all the 120 students working in spring projects have met at first time their teammates and project facilitators. It was nice to meet some friends there, involved in other projects :) Surprisingly, so many people were not at first time in Demola, so they already had this experience before and applied again. The atmosphere was informal and relaxing.
Week 7: total 17 working hours
We had two interesting meetings, which clarified the goals and objectives of the project. Our project partner Olli-Pekka Ruuskanen, Professor of Insurance Science at the University of Tampere, has provided a comprehensive presentation of needs and problems which our project is supposed to solve. Then, our project facilitator Jere Wessman has provided a training about customer understanding. This week we also figured out the ways of communication within the team, and shared the information with all involved to the project.
Week 8: total 25 working hours
In the beginning of week, Professor Olli-Pekka has given a lecture about the basics of insurance science: definitely useful knowledge not only for the project needs, but also for personal competence and everyday situations. Later, Jere has given a workshop about value creation in the project: kind of fun but challenging training, where we had to present our project needs and perceived outcomes to other project teams.This week we also worked at our Playbook, the detailed plan of project work as it is seen now.
