Introduction

This programme will guide you through the various steps of design thinking and the various uses for it, not necessarily limited to the field of design. Design thinking is not just restricted to design, however it is a form of problem solving technique.
As mentioned by the late Steve Jobs, “Design is not what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.” Design thinking follows a similar concept and can be used to simplify processes and solve day to day problems that might arise in an organisation.
