Overview:

The Design Thinking (DT) framework comprises five distinct stages: empathize, define the problem, ideate, prototype, and test.

In today’s increasingly complex landscape, many challenges require specialized strategies. Design Thinking serves as a powerful tool for navigating these complexities. By mastering Design Thinking, individuals can address difficult issues more effectively, communicate with greater clarity, persuade with more impact, drive superior business outcomes, and elevate both organizational culture and personal performance.

• Core Mechanics of DT: Gaining insights from users and the problem itself, identifying patterns, developing models (noting model drift), testing the model, evaluating results, and re-engineering as necessary.
• The interplay between DT, innovation, and entrepreneurship.
• Essential DT methods and tools: persona creation, stakeholder mapping, customer journey mapping, service blueprints, and business model innovation.
• Practical applications of DT: cultivating a design mindset, pursuing disruptive innovation, adopting an iterative approach, utilizing agile estimation techniques, enhancing critical thinking and problem-solving skills, fostering teamwork, preparing leadership capabilities, improving communication, leveraging technology, thinking ahead, building intercultural and ethical competency, boosting emotional intelligence and self-awareness, and sharpening negotiation and conflict resolution skills.

Objectives:

• To grasp the fundamental principles and subtle nuances of DT.
• To explore key concepts, influencing factors, theories, types, and models within DT.
• To engage in experimentation, experiential learning, and practical application of DT.

Delivery:

This one-day (4-hour) training program includes the following components:

• Lectures (40%): Presentation of theories, concepts, models, and interactive discussions.
• Group Exercises (30%): Activities focusing on group dynamics, games, collaborative discussions, and mock conflict resolution scenarios.
• Individual Activities (15%): Tasks involving writing, design work, and peer discussions.
• Other Materials (15%): Videos and reading assignments.

Note: Due to the interactive nature of this course, a minimum group size of 3 participants is required.

This instructor-led live training (online or onsite) is aimed at beginner to intermediate-level PCB designers and electronics engineers who wish to develop a complete and controlled PCB design workflow using Altium Designer.
