WHY DO YOU NEED DESIGN THINKING?
Prime Minister of Singapore, PM Lee spoken about Design Thinking in 2018:
“Our founding fathers (of Singapore) had to understand the issues, define the problem, come out with creative ideas and solutions, prototype the idea, test out the innovations and constantly review the solutions. This is the essence of Design Thinking. “
If our PM demands it from the Singaproe government, what’s more for me and you?
DBS CEO, Piyush Gupta spoken about threat of Fintech in 2017:
“Alipay hit $100b in less than a year with no branches. They gave out $60m lines of credit in Singles’ Day shopping festival. No bank in the world can do that today. These companies have an installed customer base and so are a far more formidable challenge for banks.”
The industry has realised that the value of design as a strategic differentiator and are increasingly using good design to improve their products and services to innovate and provide better experience for their customers.
Organisations are waking up to Design Thinking and they value (and are hiring) Design Thinkers- especially in the market where innovation and creativity gets valued.
Do you have problems getting your stakeholders to common understanding? Do you understand your customers?
Do you have difficulty coming out with ideas? Or you do not feel equipped to draw them out? Are you not confident of your next product launch without testing?
Your boss hates ineffective workers and we totally understand. Outpace your colleagues with powerful design thinking skills that will catch your boss’ eyes.
