Desing thinking process

Desing thinking process

1. 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.

   • Empathize
     • Research Your Users' Needs
       • Here, you should gain an empathetic understanding of the problem you’re trying to solve, typically through user research.
   • Define
     • State Your Users' Needs and Problems
       • It’s time to accumulate the information gathered during the Empathize stage.
   • Ideate
     • Challenge Assumptions and Create Ideas
       • Now, you’re ready to generate ideas.
   • Prototype
     • Start to Create Solutions
       • This is an experimental phase. The aim is to identify the best possible solution for each problem found. Your team should produce some inexpensive, scaled-down versions of the product
   • Test
     • Try Your Solutions Out
       • Evaluators rigorously test the prototypes.
