Three key learnings from applying design thinking: 1) The Empathy Map is an effective way to structure interviews and understand stakeholder needs. 2) Forcing a quota of ideas using constraints can result in more creative solutions. 3) Early prototyping helps refine ideas and test empathy. The document also provides suggestions on when and how to use design thinking techniques in various settings like meetings, training, and project initiation through tools like empathy mapping, idea generation, and early prototyping.
Reflection assignment
- 1. Three key learnings 1. The Empathy Map is brilliant way structuring interviews and presenting them in a way that shows the needs of the stakeholder. 2. Simple ideation technique of forcing a quota of ideas, using artificial constraints actually results in more and creative ideas. 3. Early prototyping is a great way to refine ideas and your empathy map.
- 2. The process and levels of optimism and perceived understanding of the topic Level of optimism Perceived understanding
- 4. Applying Design Thinking to my job When/where to use it Start small Social settings Training design Initial stakeholder engagement in project initiation In meetings ask the idea generation questions (how would a five year old solve it) Prototype everything After prototyping, go back to empathy map to test How to use it Empathy map stakeholder engagements Show people the empathy map to capture their requirements Use the idea generation tools when in solution mode Keep solutions away from problem statements Keep thinking what we could prototype early to learn as we go
