Mitos y retos del Design Thinking (2) ¿Por qué puede fracasar el Design Thinking? Sin duda, algunas leyendas y falsas interpretaciones se interponen entre este concepto y una implementación eficaz. En un post anterior hablamos de la sobreutilización del concepto de design thinking y de las dudas que habían aparecido sobre su utilidad y aplicabilidad. Vimos que en muchos casos los problemas se debieron a que el design thinking se implementó como un proceso estándar y lineal, desproveyéndolo del conflicto, los fallos y la iteración que son elementos imprescindibles de este enfoque.

Blogs Improving Access to Medical Oxygen By Anthony Gregorio - April 10, 2014 The Oxygen Gap IDEO: Big Innovation Lives Right on the Edge of Ridiculous Ideas Imagine for a second if you could somehow wrap up the creative chaos of a kindergartner’s life and apply it at work. You’d go on field trips, make stuff, hatch crazy ideas, and be awed by the world on a daily basis. Sound ridiculous? At the renowned international design consultancy IDEO, it’s how work gets done every day. Psychologists tell us that as we age, we become self-conscious in classroom and other public settings, and quietly begin to suppress our playful tendencies for fear of being childish or breaking with social norms. Creativity requires that we fight against this trajectory.At IDEO, being playful is almost an obsession.

Design thinking Design thinking stands for design-specific cognitive activities that designers apply during the process of designing.[1] Overview[edit] Design thinking has come to be defined as combining empathy for the context of a problem, creativity in the generation of insights and solutions, and rationality in analyzing and fitting various solutions to the problem context.[2] According to Tim Brown, CEO and president of IDEO, the goal of Design Thinking is "matching people’s needs with what is technologically feasible and viable as a business strategy" [3] The premise of teaching Design Thinking is that by knowing about how designers approach problems and the methods which they use to ideate, select and execute solutions, individuals and businesses will be better able to improve their own problem solving processes and take innovation to a higher level.

Ideo's David Kelley on "Design Thinking" The smell of ramen noodles wafts over the Stanford d.school classroom as David Kelley settles into an oversize red leather armchair for a fireside chat with new students. It's 80 degrees and sunny outside in Palo Alto, and as the flames flicker merrily on the big computer screen behind him, Kelley, founder of both the d.school and the global design consultancy Ideo, introduces his grad students to what "design thinking" — the methodology he made famous and the motivating idea behind the school — is all about. Today's task: Design a better ramen experience.

Use design thinking for the fuzzy front end of organizational change [Design thinking] is the ability to create new options and build new products, services and experiences that gives design so much power. It is the ability to understand deeply cultures from digital social media networks to small villages in southern India that gives design its power. – Bruce Nussbaum I first came across the term design thinking a several years ago, through the writing of Tim Brown and Bruce Nussbaum, two early champions of the approach. A designer by background, a former boss nudged me towards buyer personas, which started me on an exploration of the world of sales and marketing. This broadened my view into one that didn’t just focus on “user” but on the messy organizational context in which that person worked, the business problems faced by those organizations, and the challenges of balancing the needs of an organization, its customers, and its employees.
