Final Thoughts in Design Thinking
The document discusses taking a design thinking course and how it will help improve teaching design processes to students. It outlines the standard design thinking process of empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test. It also shows the instructor's variation on this process based on what they learned. The instructor plans to use what they learned to provide more specific guidelines and limits for their senior graphic design students who struggle with creating thesis projects and appreciating the full design process.
You are already becoming less successful…
Success can make you less teachable by encouraging you to repeat past patterns that led to success instead of exploring new ideas. To counteract this, the document recommends three methods: resetting to zero by celebrating briefly after achieving a goal then moving on without bragging; focusing on the journey rather than the achievement; and reframing your goal to focus on being teachable rather than achieving success directly. Being teachable will lead to success as a byproduct and prevent becoming arrogant or stuck in past ways of thinking.
How To Solve It
The document outlines Polya's four-phase method for solving problems: 1) Understand the problem by identifying what is known and unknown and considering the problem from different perspectives, 2) Devise a plan by thinking of related problems and ways to restate, transform, or introduce auxiliary elements to the problem, 3) Carry out the plan by working through all the steps and details, and 4) Look back by considering if the solution could be simplified, arrived at differently, or if it provides new insights or sub-results. Key aspects within each phase like visualizing, isolating principles parts, considering from various angles, and scrutinizing results are discussed.

Creativity and Strategic Thinking: The Coming Competencies
Ann Herrmann-Nehdi, CEO of Herrmann International, explores the connection between thinking preferences and different phases of the innovative and strategic thinking processes, discussing the implications for building skills in these areas.
Design thinking
Design Thinking is a 5-stage iterative process that involves empathizing with users to understand problems, defining the core problems, ideating potential solutions, prototyping solutions, and testing them. It is a human-centered approach useful for solving ill-defined problems. The 5 stages are empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test. Design thinking helps businesses optimize processes, the IT industry develop solutions that meet user needs, education institutions address student challenges, and healthcare lower costs while improving quality.
Design thinking
Design thinking relies on three modes of thinking: Open, Explore, and Close. Open involves divergent thinking to generate creative options. Explore focuses on organizing ideas and finding patterns. Close involves convergent thinking to analyze ideas and select the best option. These modes are building blocks that can be applied at both the macro and micro levels of design thinking processes and activities. It is important to use the modes sequentially rather than simultaneously for effective thinking.
5 Stages in Design thinking.ppt
The document outlines the 5 stages of the design thinking process: 1) Empathize, where designers gain an empathic understanding of users through observation and immersion; 2) Define, where problems are defined in human-centric terms; 3) Ideate, where many ideas are generated to solve the defined problems; 4) Prototype, where inexpensive versions of ideas are tested; and 5) Test, where the best solutions are rigorously tested on users and findings are used to redefine problems and user understanding in an iterative process. The stages provide a solution-based approach to solving complex problems by understanding human needs.
Problem solving
The term problem-solving refers to the mental process that people go through to discover, analyze and solve problems.
A problem can be defined as ‘where there is a need to bridge gap between a current situation and a desired situation”.
Broadly there are three types of problemdiagnostic problems – working out what’s gone wrong and fixing it – for example, a machine or a process isn’t working properly and needs to be fixed or improved design problems – identifying what needs to be done to create a new product or process and planning how to do itcontingency problems – resource planning and working with others to plan and manage a project, such as organising an event.Problems with personal or emotional relationships are not a problem although they often make for interesting scenarios.
An Intro to Design thinking
Design thinking is a process for creative problem solving that focuses on human needs. It consists of 5 steps: 1) empathizing to understand user needs, 2) defining the core problem, 3) ideating potential solutions, 4) prototyping top ideas, and 5) testing prototypes with users to identify the best solution. The process is iterative, with insights from each step informing subsequent steps to refine solutions until the problem is solved in a human-centered way.
Creativity
The document discusses creativity and the business idea generation process. It defines creativity as generating new ideas and perspectives. It then outlines several methods businesses use to generate new ideas, including focus groups, brainstorming, and problem inventory analysis. The document also discusses the creative problem solving process, which involves defining the problem, generating ideas, selecting solutions, and planning implementation. It concludes by outlining the product planning and development process, from the initial idea through testing and commercialization.
Creative thinking presentation

This document discusses methods for generating new business ideas, including focus groups, brainstorming, problem inventory analysis, observation, research and development, emerging trends analysis, and creative problem solving techniques. It provides details on each method and how entrepreneurs can utilize them to develop new business concepts and opportunities.
IDEATE.pptx
The document discusses ideation, which is the process of generating ideas, as part of the design thinking process. It provides several techniques for ideation, including brainstorming, brainwriting, SCAMPER, and mind mapping. Brainstorming involves generating many ideas without judgement in a set time period. Brainwriting has participants write down their ideas anonymously. SCAMPER is a mnemonic to help spark ideas by substituting, combining, adapting, modifying, putting to other uses, eliminating, or rearranging aspects. Mind mapping visually organizes ideas. The document also includes examples of applying these techniques to generate possible solutions to problems.
U creative
The document outlines a 5-step process for developing creativity in the workplace: 1) Finding problems by actively looking for issues, 2) Incubating ideas by reflecting on information away from the problem, 3) Exploring problems to find root causes, 4) Generating and evaluating ideas using various techniques, and 5) Implementing ideas through solid planning and change management. Creativity involves looking for opportunities to improve systems, gathering information, and seeing ideas through from conception to implementation. The key is training oneself to identify problems and continuously applying this process to be genuinely creative.

Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

- 3. MINDSET I have been interested in how to solve complex problem, particulary scheduling and vehicle routing problem and how i can solve these problems with heuristic and hyperheuristic. Now, I realize that in order to solve these problems from a innovative way not only a math way since in literature this problem have been studied in math way. I need to learn a new process of thinking in a innovative way. If I learn a new form of thinking I could solve scheduling and vehicle routing problem in particular, but more important than these I could lead innovation project and figure out innovative solution to complex problem. This encourage me to work in multidisciplinary work team that will allow me to face all kind of problems from different point of view.
