Motivated by curiosity and a strong conviction that the tools and methods of design thinking ignite innovative ideas and solutions, a group of Portland-based, like-minded practitioners set out to survey the local landscape. Our goal: to uncover the tactics, challenges, benefits and themes surrounding design thinking in our community.
This is the result.
We found more than a dozen common themes and insights. Some of them speak directly to the benefits of a design thinking approach. Some express deep challenges to making that approach work in the real world. In all cases, we are pleasantly surprised by the conviction, passion, and commitment to overcoming those challenges and sharing the benefits of design thinking. !
Over the last couple of years I've talked a lot on Design Thinking, Design in general and Service Design.
This presentation is my incomplete story on the topic, with storyline.
Hope you like it, love your comments...
This lecture focuses on providing an overview of the design thinking process. Students will apply this concept to building a business model around their entrepreneurial idea.

WHEN DESIGNER HUGH DUBBERLY asked Tim Brennan of Apple’s

While many business people appreciate the power of design,
a formal process for its practice has been elusive; until now.

Designing for Growth:
A Tool Kit For Managers

Design, this drawing asserts, is simply magic – a mysterious
no-man’s land where only the brave dare tread. Such a definition
mocksthe ideathata formalprocesscouldpossiblyexist fornavi-
gating itsmanyhairpin turns.
Our advice: don’t be put off by Brennan’s view of design.
Design has many different meanings, and the approach we will
describe here is more akin to Dorothy’s ruby slippers than to a
magicwand:you’vealreadygotthepower;you justneedtofigure
outhowtouse it.Can the averagemanagerbe transformed into
the next Jonathan Ive? No more than your local golf pro can
turn you into Tiger Woods. But can you improve your game?
Without adoubt.

Designalwaysbeginswithempathy–establishingadeepunder-
standing of those for whom you are designing. Managers who
thought likedesignerswould consistentlyput themselves in their
customers’ shoes. We all know we’re supposed to be ‘customer-
centered’, but what we’re talking about is deeper and more
personal than that: trueempathyentailsknowingyourcustomers
asrealpeoplewithrealproblems,ratherthanastargetsforsalesor
as a set of demographic statistics around age or income level. It
involvesdevelopinganunderstandingofboththeiremotionaland
their ‘rational’ needsandwants.
In addition,managerswho thought likedesignerswould view
themselvesas creators.Forallourtalkaboutthe ‘artandscience’of
management, we have mostly paid attention to the science part.
Taking design seriously means acknowledging the difference
betweenwhat scientistsdoandwhatdesignersdo:whereas scien-
tists investigate today to discover explanations for what already
is, designers invent tomorrow to create something that isn’t.

Theyare,asWalt Disneyoncesaid,“Createdfirst inthemindand
next in theactivity.”
Finally, design insists that we prepare ourselves to iterate our
way to a solution, somanagerswho thought like designerswould
view themselves as learners. Most managers are taught a linear
problem-solving methodology: define the problem, identify vari-
ous solutions, analyze each, and choose the best one. Designers
aren’t nearly so impatient – or optimistic; they understand ...
