Design thinking is not just the property of graphic designers. This approach to creating solutions by thinking from the customer perspective can lead to new and innovative ideas that old methods could not approach.
Design Thinking for Dummies provides a jump-start to get you and your organization on the path to new creativity. Written by a design thinking thought leader, this book helps you through the design thinking cycle and shows how it can help any industry.

You start to pack the car and cross things off your list. The car fills up but only half of the things on your list are inside the car and you notice that some important stuff is still sitting in your driveway.
And then you notice you have a flat tyre. You’ll have to unload everything to get to the spare tyre.
Just then, the next door neighbours open their garage door and ride off on their bicycles, waving to you.
For me, design thinking is about doing. It’s best learnt in a small group actually designing something, led by a real designer.
You can read a whole book about how to prepare and ride a bicycle. But you will never experience the excitement of speeding along with the wind in your hair and the sun on your skin… from a book … whether you read it yourself, or someone reads it to you.
This is not a bad book. It covers everything conceivable on the topic. But it’s like the manual that comes with your new bike. Useful when you need to do something tricky like adjust the gears, but otherwise, you’re better off just putting on your helmet and going for a ride.
