Design Thinking for UX Design Managers
Watching these videos I learned many things about thinking like a designer. The first thing was the design thinking process and its stages. To start, design thinking is a methodology that aims to solve problems in a creative and user-centric way. So to think like a designer you must start with the empathize stage, thinking about how the user would use or feel about the design. Next, is the define stage which is formulating a problem point of view, and then after that is the ideate stage where you generate as many ideas as possible. After idea generation is the prototype stage where the designer creates scaled-down versions of the best idea and then moves into the test stage where feedback about the prototype is gathered so improvements can be made.
