What is Design Thinking?
According to the global design company IDEO, Design Thinking is a process for creative problem solving. Design thinking encourages organizations to focus on the people they're creating for and leads to human-centered products, services, and internal processes. The core of Design Thinking is getting actionable and knowing your questions. It’s about simple mindset shifts and ways of asking questions differently—a new way to look at problems.
Why Is Design Thinking Important?
· It reduces the risk associated with launching new ideas.
· It helps organizations learn faster.
· It generates solutions that are innovative, not just incremental.
