https://generalassemb.ly/education/design-thinking-workshop/

Using design thinking methods developed by David Kelly at the Stanford d.School, learn how to make faster, better design decisions by putting the customer first. Design Thinking is based on a series of Steps: Empathy, Definition, Ideation, Prototyping and Testing. And a set of Mindsets: Human Centered, Bias Towards Action, Show Don't Tell, Radical Collaboration, Culture of Prototyping and Mindful of Process. We will touch on each of these during the Crash Course.

Takeaways

  • Having a bias towards action gets you somewhere faster
  • Embrace failure and use it as an opportunity to learn
  • Have empathy for your customer
