INTRODUCTION TO DESIGN THINKING

• Design thinking is a non-linear, iterative process that teams use to


understand users, challenge assumptions, redefine problems and
create innovative solutions to prototype and test.
• Design Thinking manages to solve problems in a creative way.
PROCESS OF DESIGN THINKING

It is a concept or an idea which lays emphasis on the sale of goods and


services and not the underlying need or want, and it does not really matter
whether the products are actually needed by the customer or not. The
focus is on sales (profit) first and then on marketing. This is also called the
selling concept where the sole aim is sales, and not whether the product is
actually required.
PHASES OF DESIGN THINKING

5 Phases of Design Thinking


EMPATHIZE

• Perform research and analyze to know the current DEI State.


• Note: DEI stands for diversity, equity, and inclusion.
• A good design idea comes through a continuous focus on human-centric ideas.
• Design thinking not only encourages us to gain DEI solutions but also eliminates barriers for
professionals who are aiming to achieve their career aspirations with fair and good opportunities.
• Design thinking begins with empathy, and the aim in the empathy stage is to focus on the users.
• In this stage, it is important to focus on in-depth metrics like prediction and prescriptive analysis.
• These metrics help an individual in cross-verifying the insights collected from the associates.
• The result of the empathy refuels our strategy, process, and program with innovative solutions.

Addresses the divergent styles of thinking.


DEFINE

• The understanding we gain from the Empathize phase encourages us to reframe the
perceived problem and gain perspectives, but the define process helps us to allow a more
holistic look at the path toward the expected solution.
• While defining the problem, we should ensure that every associate follows the problem-
solving process correctly.
• The phase helps us to build with the most authentic solutions.
• The define stage encourages to:
• Analyze your observations
• Identify core problems
• Focus on asking the right issues
• Motivate users with wise words

Addresses the convergent styles of thinking to manage an overall process and purpose.
IDEATE

• This is an experimental stage, and the aim of this stage is to solve issues by
identifying the best solutions.
• Designers aim to strategize solutions for the problem identified in the define
phase.
• The designers isolate solution streams and later merge and refine insights.
• In simple terms, in the ideate phase the designers focus on:
• Sharing ideas and
• Prioritizing the ideas based on requirements

Be Able to uncover more possibilities and accept maximum ideation.


PROTOTYPE

• Create a prototype of the design solution that you finalized in the ideate phase.
• A prototype is an early sample of the model submitted to the users for validation.
• Prototypes are mid-to high-fidelity wireframes with more visual details and interactions
between elements of the design.
• The feedback is taken from the users and it reworks the flaws in the prototype model in order
to present a stronger final product.
• In simple terms, the proposed solution is validated in this stage in a cost-effective way before
launching a fully fledged product.

Prototypes are useful for user testing


Ideal for quick internal use and client feedback
TESTING

• Testing is the crucial stage of the design thinking process.


• Collect the valuable user feedback and get to know whether your prototype model has
succeeded, or needs to be improved.
• The insights collected during the testing phase will push you to iterate on your prototype
model.
• This phase helps you to gain a deeper understanding of your target users.
• Note: Testing can also be deployed on a live website or application.
• Different designs are sent to different users, and it tests the performance or usability for each
version.
• It finalizes the design version that is found to be the most desired and usable.
• In this phase, usability testing tools are used for optimizing the user experience in websites.
GOAL OF DESIGN THINKING PROCESS

• Desirable for the user


• Viable for the business
• Technologically feasible
