Overview:

The Design Thinking (DT) process comprises five distinct stages: empathize, define the problem, ideate, prototype, and test.

In today's increasingly complex landscape, we face challenges that often require specialized approaches. Design Thinking provides a framework for navigating these complexities. By mastering design thinking, you can address complex issues effectively, improve communication, enhance persuasion, boost business outcomes, and strengthen both organizational and personal performance.

• How DT functions: Learn from users and the problem at hand, identify patterns, develop a design model (accounting for model drift), test the model, evaluate it, and re-engineer as necessary.
• The interplay between DT, innovation, and entrepreneurship.
• DT methods and tools: including personas, stakeholder maps, customer journey maps, service blueprints, and business model innovation.
• Applications of DT: cultivating a design mindset, driving disruptive innovation, utilizing iterative approaches and agile estimation techniques, fostering critical thinking, problem-solving, teamwork, leadership readiness, communication skills, technological fluency, forward-thinking, intercultural and ethical competency, emotional intelligence, self-awareness, negotiation skills, and conflict resolution.

Objectives:

• To grasp the fundamentals and nuances of DT.
• To explore key concepts, factors, theories, types, and models within DT.
• To experiment with, experience, and practice DT.
