Design thinking: dive deeper into customer demand and enhance your ideas

Are solutions A, B and C already there before you even hear the customer’s question? Sounds smart, but it isn’t in fact. With design thinking you explore your customers’ questions first, to present more creative solutions later. In this training you discover the key to design thinking.
