Design thinking is a creative and flexible method for solving problems and creating new solutions in various fields (products, services, etc.). Let’s explore the stages of design thinking with A8 Resource to improve your work results!

WHAT IS DESIGN THINKING?

Design thinking is a method of viewing and solving problems creatively and flexibly. It is a non-linear, non-sequential process that includes five stages.

5 STAGES OF DESIGN THINKING

Stage 1: Discover

• Identify the problems to be solved using the STEEP model.

• The aim is to gain a profound understanding and empathy for the problem at hand while setting aside any personal biases.

Stage 2: Understand

• Use in-depth interviews to understand the root causes.

• Build Personas models to shape user needs and challenges.

Stage 3: Experiment

• Use the SCAMPER method to deeply explore and develop existing ideas.

• Develop diverse ideas in various directions using Concept Development methods.

Stage 4: Test

• Create illustrative models using storyboarding to clarify experiences and potential issues.

• Apply the “Prototyping Sessions” model to implement new plans and quickly gather feedback.

Stage 5: Implement

• Apply the SWOT method to understand the overall context of implementation and plan appropriate adjustments.

• Implement the “Quick-win” strategy to set easily achievable initial goals to motivate overall development.

You can start applying these design thinking stages on a small scale to easily evaluate results. A8 Resource hopes this article can inspire you to start applying new thinking methods in your work and develop team activities in your organization to achieve more success.
