Design thinking

A customer-focused approach using interviews, observation, and exercises to create products and services that provide demonstrated evidence of solving customers problems

Brainstorming

A group thinking technique where you ask participants about a situation or a product or service. You ask them to tell you all the things that come to mind when they think of that situation, product, or service. You can ask for specifics, like ways to make something better, or ways to create new versions, or ways to imagine how it would be used at other times or in other situations. In this group discussion, criticism is suspended in order to generate the maximum number of ideas.

What is Design Thinking and why is it important?

Integrates a human centered and collaborative approach to problem solving that is creative, iterative, and practical. Can combine technology (feasibility), business (viability) and human values (usability, desirability) all to come under design innovation. "It's not what you think, but how you think it"
