I'm hoping that Toni Roberts' recent request to list members to "help me to
clarify my understanding of ‘design thinking’ and its significance" did not
get lost in the shuffle as a result of the heated discussion (terrible pun
intended) over whether humans designed fire.
Like Toni, I would welcome hearing from anyone who can explain "how ‘design
thinking’ is about design and about thinking rather than being about a
strategic, user-centred process for solving all kinds of problems and
developing new
situations, systems, services or products" and/or "What...designers bring
to the process that is distinct from what any other intelligent,
strategically minded person might offer".
