What is ‘design thinking’? How do we apply it? And can design thinking help us solve complex problems?
To answer these questions, Ross G and Nathalie are joined by Nick Stanhope, founder and CEO of Shift, a team of designers, researchers and strategists who use research and creativity to solve challenging social problems. Nick was named one of Britain’s 50 New Radicals by The Observer and NESTA and is a board member of the Centre for the Acceleration of Social Technology.
We discuss:
- Examples of how design thinking has been applied to tackle social problems
- How to ask for budget when the outcome is uncertain
- The difficulty of applying design thinking to complex environments
