Design thinking is a human-centered approach to problem-solving that involves empathy, experimentation, and iteration. It involves understanding the people you're designing for, testing ideas, and refining solutions until they effectively address the users' needs. Design thinking is often used in product design, but can be applied to various fields such as business strategy and social impact. The goal of design thinking is to create innovative solutions that meet people's needs in a meaningful and relevant way.
