Introduction to Design Thinking

Design Thinking is a proven Human-Centered Design approach for creating solutions. i.e problem-solving. Design Thinking starts with creating solutions that are desirable to those who will benefit from these solutions. These solutions have to be feasible and viable to ensure the right impact on the desired users. This workshop is developed to provide you with essential design thinking techniques, mindsets and behaviours which will encourage you to problem solve.

Raeshelle Morris holds a Masters in Leadership from the University of Guelph, a double major Honours Bachelor’s Degree in Management and Organizational Studies from the University of Western Ontario, and she is also a certified project manager (PMP). She is trained in Creative Problem Solving, Values-Based Innovation through Values-Perspectives, Design Thinking, Change Management and Human-Centred Design. She has also obtained her Green Belt in Innovation Strategy Management through Innovation 360.

Workshop Overview:

  1. Learn essential design thinking techniques, mindsets and behaviours
  2. Understand the Design Thinking Process
  3. Understand how to grow ideas into powerful solutions
