Design thinking is a non-linear, iterative
cognitive process. Big corporations and
entrepreneurs utilize it to solve challenges and
create solutions centered on human needs. The
designer/entrepreneur/innovator must empathize
with the user or the person who will utilize the
product or service as part of the design thinking
process. Going over this crisp guide to
entrepreneurial design thinking can prove highly
beneficial.

Design Thinking and Entrepreneurship
There has been an increase in entrepreneurial
education and training programs throughout the
higher education landscape over the last decade.
Entrepreneurship is increasingly being recognized
as a vehicle for developing 21st-century skills
such as creativity, teamwork, self-efficacy,
critical thinking, job creation, and economic
growth.

In parallel, there has been a surge in interest
in human-centered design methodologies, tools,
and processes and their applicability in the
workplace and educational contexts.

Many large organizations and brands that are now
household names sprang from recessions and
difficult times, thanks to entrepreneurs who
pushed through challenges and sought chances. For
example, Disney, CNN, Microsoft, Burger King, and
FedEx were all founded during recessions. A
comparable chance to make a creative splash is
now available.

Guide To Entrepreneurial Design Thinking
Read on this small guide to entrepreneurial
design thinking to understand the ways that
design thinking can be corporated into the
business are as follows-

Set Biennial Or Quarterly Wicked Challenges For
Your Company
Wicked problems are difficult to identify,
interconnected, one-of-a-kind, and have uncertain
effects, such as poverty, eradication,
sustainability, healthcare, and education. In the
corporate environment, consumer research,
long-term strategy planning, and business model
creation are some examples of such challenges.
8
Wicked challenges are frequently expressed as
"how may we" queries in the design thinking
technique to stimulate inventive ideas at the
start of an ideation session. Set biennial or
wicked quarterly challenges for your company to
motivate stakeholders from many disciplines to
join in and contribute to future planning.

Execute A Thorough Design Thinking Process
While there are many resources, the core
five-step paradigm of empathizing, defining,
ideating, prototyping, and testing is an
excellent place to start. A design thinking
process model may aid in the tracking of
progress, the measurement of outputs, and the
evaluation of feedback from entrepreneurial
activity.
10
Use Double Diamond Method
A double-diamond method to design thinking allows
for both divergent and convergent thinking types.
Divergent thinking is connected with creativity,
inventiveness, curiosity, and the exploration of
various options, whereas convergent thinking is
concerned with putting ideas together to generate
single, solid answers.
11
The most important concern is to divide the
phases for various thinking types to avoid two
critical inputs during the exploratory stages,
which might stifle the creative process, or,
conversely, too many open-ended alternatives
without a concrete conclusion. Divergent thinking
techniques like empathy mapping and customer
journey mapping are fantastic, whereas convergent
thinking skills like concept selection, action
planning, and prototyping are great.
12
Practice Physical And Psychological Excercise
The human-centered design framework emphasizes
experimentation, cooperation, and active
learning. To bring these attitudes to life,
physical and psychological exercises that
stimulate making, building, and team-based
interactions are essential. This might take the
shape of anything from an online collaboration
tool to a formal maker space equipped with design
and technological tools.
13
These environments' activities should ideally be
flexible, iterative, and project-based, with a
focus on developing and testing different
solutions.
