Introduction

In a world disrupted by Covid-19, there is a need to for us to be adaptable, nimble and innovative problem-solvers. And in this respect, design as a discipline and way of thinking has much to offer. Design is not just a job - it's a way of thinking. And today, we see the fingerprints of design in every sector, from banking to manufacturing and IT.

Whether you are a manager in a global corporation, an entrepreneur starting up, in a government role, or a HR executive, you can use Design thinking as an approach to solve the Organisation’s most frustrating problems, with a lens that puts the user at the centre.
