THINKING

Design Thinking

is a design methodology that provides a solution-based approach to solving problems. It’s extremely useful in tackling complex problems that are ill-defined or unknown, by understanding the human needs involved, by re-framing the problem in human-centric ways, by creating many ideas in brainstorming sessions, and by adopting a hands-on approach in prototyping (LEGO) and testing. Understanding these five stages of Design Thinking will empower anyone to apply the Design Thinking methods in order to solve complex problems that occur around us — in our companies, our countries, and even our planet.

Coaching Design Thinking

like coaching tennis, is a teachable art. The goal of coaching is to help athletes practice the basics and improve their game. A good coach works at multiple levels: Foundation, Technique, and Play. Design Thinking is a bit like tennis - to learn and apply Design Thinking requires mastery at all three levels. Furthermore, a good coach can read the “player” and determine what elements from the three levels to engage. Because Design Thinking is a team sport, coaches experience significant challenges in bringing teams together and each player up to the same level. One player may have a poor racket; another may lack the skill to sustain a practice volley. A team volley (shared insights or compelling story) is one measure of the quality of the Design Thinking process.
