The document discusses applying design thinking and provides key takeaways. It outlines the design thinking process as empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test. The core of design thinking is placing stakeholders at the center. It then provides examples of applying design thinking within a company to help new employees, customers, improve workspaces and communication, and make open workspaces more comfortable. Finally, it expands on applying design thinking outside of work to help friends connect, maintain alumni relationships, help graduates, and support elderly veterans.
