ABOUT THIS EVENT
Design thinking describes the process of applying the design cycle and mindset to problem-solving. The design cycle typically comprises diverse teams working through interconnected phases of empathic user-centered research, creative thinking, prototyping, testing and implementing or returning to any of the other phases to refocus.
Design thinking is not a new idea, but continues to gain traction and popularity in the business world as startups, entrepreneurs, and companies like Apple, IDEO, P&G, Google, Nike and Starbucks publicly credit it with successful innovation and further integrate design into their respective corporate cultures. It is seen as offering a new approach better suited for dealing with ever-increasing pressures for growth and innovation.
Great. So... what is it, how does it function, and why bother?
In his Master-Class, Andrew will give you answers to these question and take you on a journey through the world of design thinking.
