Why Design Thinking is Relevant
By Alex Bompane

The world is a constant buzz of innovation - we're all constantly pushing boundaries. But, simply having a great idea or established systems isn't enough. To truly flourish, we need a human-centred approach to problem-solving which is design thinking.
Why Design Thinking Matters
Design thinking is an iterative methodology that prioritises user empathy. It's about understanding the "why" behind a problem before crafting solutions (the "what"). It is a transformative tool that entrepreneurs, corporates, and educators alike use to do the following:
Entrepreneurs
Create, identify, or refine product and/or service to perfectly resonate with the target audience, boosting the success of business.
Corporates
Innovate and develop solutions that address customer needs, enhancing brand loyalty and driving growth.
Educators
Effective learning experiences that cater to diverse learning styles and improve learning outcomes.
This collaborative process unfolds in distinct stages:
Empathy
Step into the shoes of your target audience to grasp their needs, challenges, and motivations.
Define
Clearly articulate the problem and desired outcome, ensuring a targeted and measurable approach (SMART).
Ideate
Foster a creative environment where brainstorming and divergent thinking generate innovative solutions.
Prototype
Build low-fidelity versions of your ideas to enable rapid iteration and early feedback loops.
Test
Gather real-world feedback through focus groups and surveys to further refine your solution.
