Description
Designers understand the power of design in shaping great products, but it can be challenging to get other teams and stakeholders to buy into the design process if they haven’t experienced the benefits first-hand. Design thinking offers a toolkit that can help democratize design, and get teams aligned early in the process of creating a new product or feature.
 
In this workshop, we’ll take a look at how design thinking has helped shape innovative products in a multitude of industries, and then have a hands-on, team based design challenge where we use the methods in the design thinking toolkit to attack a creative problem. By the end of our workshop, you should be able to bring these methods back to your team, and share the power of the design process to help create more innovative, impactful products.
