MGMT20140 - Individual Poster: Design Thinking and Personal Reflection

This document presents a student's poster assignment focusing on the importance of personal reflection within the context of design thinking. The assignment, designed for the MGMT20140 course, requires the creation of an A2-sized poster that effectively communicates the significance of self-reflection in the design process. The poster should demonstrate skills in visualization, summarization, prioritization, and synthesis. The content explores how personal reflection, including visualizing, prototyping, and brainstorming, aids in solving creative problems, improving services, and meeting client requirements. The poster is expected to be self-explanatory, utilizing structure, graphics, and concise text to convey complex messages effectively. The provided references support the core ideas and methodologies of design thinking for managers. The assignment aims to showcase the student's understanding of design thinking principles and the critical role of reflection in fostering innovation and problem-solving within a business context.

DESIGN THINKING FOR MANAGERS
The bold ideas can be generated.
The latent needs can be addressed by the
developing the new ideas.
It helps in designing the better services,
products and experiences.
Benefits to innovators and
entrepreneurs
• Challenges are solved by the
manager through the creativity.
• The requirements of the client can
be effectively meet by a proper
design thinking.
• The multiple evaluation can be done
through design thinking and helps in
tackling the creative challenges.
• It is an adductive reasoning which
helps in representing the model.
Personal Reflection
•It relies on the human ability so that the
meaningful and the functional ideas can be
construct so that an iterative approach can
be formed.
•Visualizing
•Prototyping
•Brainstorming
•Testing
Approaches for Design Thinking
