Design Thinking Process : Assignment_3
IntroductionThe contemporary business world today is about creating solutions to problems. Taking a Design Thinking course is a unique learning experience for me because it shows me how to develop ideas through creatity[ CITATION Bar16 \l 1033 ]. Its practical approach is an opportunity for me to sharpen my personal and professional skills. Competence in design process starts with the ideation process. It is not enough to learn about DT because applied design thinking adds more value. However, the process of developing ideas is systematic and uses techniques. Through this process, I have learnt to approach creativity from a different angle of professionalism, team work and result oriented thinking. This report describes this learning process of reasoning and learning with suggestions for further professional development ( Blog post #3 August 16 2017).Personal developmentBefore this course, I used to think that creativity is an art subject that comprises of talented perfomances, artistic drawings, fashion, and sculpture. I had no idea that everyone has the ability to express creativity through the mind. In fact, I saw myself as a scientific person that was not really creative. However, DT has made me realize my inner strengths through thinking ( blog post # 1 30 July 2017). It is amazing how the world of thinking can give birth to numerous unique ideas. I feel motivated by the fact that innovation spearheads entrepreneurship because I have a business mind as a person[ CITATION Lie11 \l 1033 ]. The group workshops have unveiled this truths in an amazing way. Problem solving vs problem finding (Blog post #4 August 25 2017)I am a visual person and I often channel this creativity to my social media page. However, this course has taugt me how to use blogs for sharing serious ideas that other people can understand[ CITATION Shr17 \l 1033 ]. I used to take photos and post on Instagram and Facebook just for fun. This has changed because now I develop images through visualization,brainstoring and spotting the obvious. Using design thinking tehcniques I can create a spiral of tens of ideas through one single thought. I find it amazing that finding one solution leads tothe discovery of another. It is easier to create quality ideas now because of the visualization, journey mapping, mind mapping, and brainstorming processes. These define what the idea is made of and its alternatives.
