When it comes to solving problems, how do you go about getting from hurdles to solution? If you’re like many people, you probably use methods that have always worked – look at budgets, dive into people who can help, and get the problem solved as quickly as possible. But what if there was a different way you could go about solving problems that was more holistic and revolutionary?
For that, you need to turn to a methodology developed in about the middle of the last century. Design thinking got its start in the fields of architecture and engineering as a way to understand how design functioned and how it could help with what were termed “wicked problems.” However, over the following decades it infiltrated other fields, until many people across many professions utilize it. What does it look like and how should you implement it? This graphic offers some ideas.
