Dheeraj Chinni says:

This is the best explanation for design thinking. Helped me a lot to clear all my confusions about design thinking.

Kgabo Mahwai says:

Hi, If you have an idea how a problem can be solved, can you use design thinking to test if that solution will work?

mj c says:

A really good video giving the basics, it also supports the world of complexity that is you could, I think, use the process to derive what knowledge would be helpful to users, so their knowledge is enhanced on the complexity they operate. Through this understanding and knowledge they can then make informed decisions to, for example stay in control and not loose control of a process, maybe even keep themselves safe. My question is what are your thoughts on using this framework to develop knowledge in a safety context of keeping control through understanding. Look a the conclusion of the B2 accident at Guam, this framework may have helped develop pilot knowledge?

Brian Ruscio says:

THE MAGIC SAUCE says:

Just sent this one to a friend who confuses Design Sprints with Design Thinking. Too many people want to do "the whole thing in 3 hours…" Perfect explanation here, Jonathan.

Tish says:

Would you say thats the "aspects" of design thinking is the 5 steps: emphasis, define, ideate, prototype and testing?

Katie Patrick says:

Personally, I just like to come up with what I call a "God Metric" and just think through the data – but I do environmental behavior change through so I can do it like this!
