Design Thinking Process
Design thinking is a human-centered approach to innovation that draws from the designer's toolkit to integrate the needs of people, the possibilities of technology, and the requirements for business success.
The 5 Stages
- Empathize: Understand your users' needs and experiences
- Define: Clearly articulate the problem you're solving
- Ideate: Generate creative solutions through brainstorming
- Prototype: Create low-fidelity versions of your solutions
- Test: Validate your solutions with real users
Applying Design Thinking
