Design Thinking

Tim Brown, CEO and President of design company IDEO defined Design Thinking as “a human-centered approach to innovation that draws from the designer’s toolkit to integrate the needs of people, the possibilities of technology, and the requirements for business success”. Design thinking focuses on the solution and is user-centric instead of the problem itself. A significant aspect of design thinking is that is user-specific and it requires asking questions such as ‘Who will use this product/service?’ and ‘In what ways will the solution impact the user?’. The four principles of design thinking include The Human Rule, the Ambiguity Rule, the Redesign Rule and the Tangibility Rule.


Processes involved in Design Thinking

Design thinking consists of roughly five phases which include: i)Empathise ii)Define iii)Ideate iv)Prototype and v)Test. The first step is to ensure that we understand the problem in depth along with observation and engagement with the user. The next step includes the organization of the information collected in the previous phase and defining a problem statement followed by a structured approach to solving it. The ideate phase allows creative explorations to resolve the issue. The curation of the best ideas and their implementation forms the basis of the prototype phase. The last phase uses an iterative methodology and decides the best solution from the previous stage that can be used as the end solution.



Advantages of Design Thinking

Design thinking majorly focuses on problem-solving while understanding the context and ensuring continuous engagement with people. It enables overcoming creative challenges while meeting customer requirements. The principles of design thinking also focus on experimentation and overcoming cognitive fixedness. Another benefit of design thinking is that it focuses on increased product usability and innovative output. It is widely used in multiple domains and fields in the current times including sales, marketing, education, healthcare, customer services, and even in the creative and design industries.



Incorporation of Technology and AI in Design Thinking

The relationship between Technology and Design Thinking is intertwined and interdependent as different mediums and tools of technology have increased the scale and speed of problem-solving at the same time we see it is with the use of design thinking that technology has become more accessible and user-friendly. Some experts state design thinking as a social technology in itself that emphasizes various aspects like field anthropological research, experimentation, use of diverse perspectives, and redefining problems. In the era of AI, the application of design thinking processes is even more widely accepted and used.
