Lunchtime Learning - The Mindset of Design Thinking

If you've been involved in design thinking, you'll know that the mindset you bring is critical to the success of the project.

Openness, flexibility, refraining judgement - all of these are critical to an engaging and effective project.

But - what research has there been done on this mindset? And - how can this be helpful to all of us in the rest of our work?

What mindsets lead to innovation?

We're thrilled to host Prof Christine Thong, from Design Factory Melbourne, as she shares her wisdom and research on the design thinking mindset.

Based on a chapter in the book Design Thinking in Education: Innovation Can Be Learned (co-authored with Prof. Dr Falk Uebernickel), a composition for multiple "intelligences" of a design thinking mindset is put forward. It prompts conversation about the soft skills that learning programs and professional development might foster in design thinkers to maximise innovation potential.
