Design Thinking Tracking
Description
The Design Thinking Template is ideal if you are looking to approach a problem or improve a product, service, or design using out-of-the-box thinking. This abstract, creative approach is looked at in contrast to the more quantitative approach that relies on scientific research to arrive at a solution.
The template contains six sections: Topic, Empathy (observe and listen to the problem or situation), Define (a point of view created from user insights), Ideate (brainstorm as many solutions as you can), Prototype (build a representation of one of your ideas), Test (return to your user group for feedback).
