- I hope you enjoyed this course
and that you're leaving with an understanding
of design thinking and how you can support
the growth of this mindset within your teams.
When you speak to others about what you've learned,
the top four things to remember
about design thinking are
that design-led organizations are outperforming
their competition because of how designers
approach problem solving,
but that this benefit comes from a mindset
and an organizational culture, not a process,
and it can take time to develop
a culture of design thinking.
Also remember that design thinking is tied
to human-centered design.
So get to know the people who use your product
or service as well as as you know your own team members.
And if nothing else,
to bring design thinking into your every day,
ask "what if" and welcome unusual ideas,
and then sketch and prototype to refine those ideas.
To keep the learning going,
try some of the activities shared in this course
with your teams at work,
or in other projects in your community.
The worksheets are in the exercise files,
and there's a reading list,
with books like Disrupt by Luke Williams
and Creative Workshop by David Sherwin,
and suggestions for other online courses
that might be useful, as well,
like the Foundations of Design Research
to develop your skills in qualitative research,
and Leadership Fundamental to continue thinking
about how you guide teams.
If this was useful, please share the course
with your networks, and I hope to see you
in the course community.
