Course Overview

What is a design thinking approach? Design thinking is a constant process that seeks to understand the user, challenge assumptions and redefine the problems of the businesses. This helps to identify strategies and solutions which might not have been instantly thought of with our initial level of understanding.

It also helps us to observe, reflect and empathise with our target user for designing our products and services. Ceaseless Experimentation which lies at the core of Design thinking helps reframe and arrive at the right mindset, and realistic solutions to the undefined or ill-defined problems.
