DESIGN THINKING

Design Thinking is a popular catch phrase for a more multi-disciplined approach to solving problems and tapping into authentic innovation -- the 'HOW' we do business. Unlike analytical thinking, design thinking is a creative process based on the "building up" of ideas. There are no judgments or fear of failure. This topic will cover that latest on design thinking, including efforts to redefine the idea of capitalism by blending the conversations around design thinking and social enterprise.
