Meilleurs avis pour DESIGN THINKING FOR THE GREATER GOOD: INNOVATION IN THE SOCIAL SECTOR
It was good learning.It gave me perspective for my work. I probably doing something similar but had no clarity about different steps.
I really enjoyed the DT course. Provided in-depth examples and explanation about how the tool is implemented. Highly recommended for those who have a little/no knowledge about the tool.
The course really helped in understanding the process of designing a solution and more importantly focus on redefining the problem! A course for those who want to learn the innovation process.
Very insightful course with appropriate case studies to enrich our understanding of Design Thinking and its real world applications in the social sector.
