This document discusses design thinking and how it relates to agile methodology. It provides an overview of the five core components of design thinking: empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test. These components involve understanding user needs through empathy, coming up with ideas to meet those needs, building prototypes, and getting feedback to iterate designs. The document notes design thinking and agile both emphasize iterative development, getting early user feedback through demos, and focusing on solving the right problems for customers. Examples of tools used in design thinking like prototyping and empathy interviews are also presented.

Editor's Notes
- Welcome to the Design Thinking Crash Course! I’m assuming you all are here because you have an interest in learning what design thinking is and how you can apply some of its tools in your work. Well, for the next 2.5 hours you’re going to learn just that, in a really hands-on and fun way—you’re going to actually practice design thinking. But first, some quick introductions…
- Gaining empathy, defining the opportunity, ideate alternatives, prototype to refine (the concept), and test to learn (more about the customer). It’s an iterative process, and you’ll see as we go through the exercises today how learnings from tests can help you deepen your empathy for the customer and help you better articulate your opportunity, etc. Enough talk, let’s try it! We’ll have a chance to discuss afterward.

- External example of how DT can solve a problem. MRI and CT machines have been around for more than 20 years. GE’s models had won numerous awards for technical and medical feats, among them the Design Excellence Award – what many refer to as the “Oscar of design”. One of the principal engineers on the GE MRI project, Doug Dietz, was quite proud of his work and accomplishments, until witnessing a cancer-stricken young girl enter the facility for her routine MRI. As the girl approached the room with the MRI, she began to cry. Her parents bent down and whispered “We’ve talked about this before. You can be brave.” Eventually, the MRI technician had to call an anesthesiologist to sedate the young girl before her procedure. As it turns out, over 80% of pediatric patients are sedated before their MRI. If an anesthesiologist isn’t available, the family must reschedule their appointment – restarting the cycle of fear and distress. The engineer’s award-winning medical marvel had become every child’s worst nightmare. The engineer immediately set out to make things better, ultimately leveraging Design Thinking methods to improve the experience for pediatric patients. By observing young children at day care centers, talking to child life specialists, and interviewing pediatric doctors/staff, the engineer was able to see the world through the eyes of the children he was trying to help. The engineer had little- to no- funding – but understood his end user like the back of his hand. With that understanding, he transformed the MRI into a kid’s adventure story, with the patient in a starring role. None of the technology inside the scanner needed to be changed – the team simply added decals to the machine and every surface of the room – including the floor, ceiling, and walls. The machine operators were also given a script so they could guide the young patients through the adventure. Multiple “Adventure Series” now exist – ranging from a pirate ship to a space ship. The scan is now a journey, with scary bangs and clangs reimagined as cannons or rocket thrusters. Patient satisfaction skyrocketed up to 90%. Requests for sedations fell as well. But the greatest satisfaction came when the engineer returned to see the “Adventure Series” in action and witnessed a 6-year-old asking her mother “if they could come back tomorrow.”
