Nah, It’s not the same as design.

Design thinking is a creative process based around the “building up” of ideas.

INNOVATION

It’s a byproduct of Design Thinking

It’s being comfortable going forward in a state of uncertaintyIt's believing that the best solutions are yet to be foundIt’s the willingness to fail early and fail often.

Unfortunately

That’s NOT what we learn at school!

Mistakes are punished. Failure is not tolerated. Mistakes are learning Experiences. Failure breeds success. Given the questions; find the right answers. Ask great questions; find the best answers.

What

makes a good

Design Thinker?An observing eye and a constant sense of wonder. A questioning mindset that goes beyond the obvious. The willingness to experiment and build.

HardwiringOur brain is NOT hardwired

to pay attention to multiple things at once.

The

biggest obstacle to change is NOT your

competition, it's the way you currently do things.

Build quick prototypes.

Iterate quickly

Merely making things that work (badly) isn't enough. And if you can't do it right there are other people all over the world who can and want to and

eventually will!

Design thinking is NOT about the product,

it's about people! Its the age of user experience.

“This looks exciting and scary

Let’s do it!”
