What was your main takeaway from this design thinking talk? Which design thinking topics would you like deep dive videos on? Let us know in the comments 👇
My main takeaway was that it is vital to listen to user feedback and set aside funds and time to iterate. The process of Empathizing, Defining, Ideating, Prototyping and Testing is so well explained in this video. That you have highlighted the obstacles for each, adds so much value. Thanks.
Regarding the empathize phase, I have done both qualitative and quantitative researches while doing my Master in Public Policy degree. So, I know how doing research can be complicated. It is a hard work indeed. Luckily, I had a teammate when we had to write our thesis, and she was so good at using STATA, which allowed us to do our quantitative anaylisis.
"Gold"? Oh dear gawd. I'm sorry, but an actual text on market research would be a veritable gold *mine*. This stream-of-consciousness about "get to know your user" and "do your research" is just ... not even 101. I don't want to insult the guy -- he's trying - but "design thinking" is such an ill-defined (seriously: look it up, try to find a GOOD definition of what "Design Thinking" IS -- I challenge you -- and you will NOT find it!) pseudo-discipline -- it's mostly something marketing consultants use to drum up business and bill big bucks for. This is just...basic common sense, wrapped in fancy labels -- if that. (FWIW: I've been a VP and CxO of a number of Silicon Valley tech ventures, and am a Wharton MBA. I'm saying this not to humblebrag - although if you want to assume that - fine - but because most people on UA-cam just offer up opinions - or slash others without any credibility. I might be lying - but I'm not.)
It inspires me a lot about distinct complex problems and wicked problems, which is changing all the time, so design thinking is a helpful tool for action than staggering in thinking stage.
I like the examples given for some of these concepts mentioned here, it really helps to understand the meaning. However, it would be lovely if the concrete tools used in each of the Design Thinking stages were described more clearly, and a little bit more in detail. If this really is an introductory webinar, I wouln't expect the empathy mapping to be explained as "You have a user in the center, you have a quadrant... you have seen empathy maps before". I am a total noob and am listening to an introductory webinar - why do you assume that I've seen empathy maps before? User research not done well? ;) It's a pity, because you also chose the format of a video, where you could visually show what this speaker is drawing with his hands in the air - that could be helpful. These tools sound too interesting to be left so badly explained. I usually really like the content of yours I've seen so far, and I am seriously considering enrolling in one of your bootcamp programs, but if this is how you explain things in this bootcamp as well, I am really hesitant to give so much money to be left googling again. Cheers!
It was really insightful, and in the presentation , the slide on test phase obstacles there is a typo under lacking the ability to pivot , ' too ' instead of 'to'.
The first stage is to Empathize with the products users (or potential users). How do we know who to survey and interview for that? Is that something we'd have to come up with on our own?
I really like the content of this video and i save it to rewatch it later. Most likely i will like to know how to use the technical side of these tools.
10:17 - Not deferring judgement. Could anyone explain this to me? I am not able to understand this point. And some text is hidden because of the video window. So it's confusing me more.
it means that any idea that comes up should be considered without worrying if it's a "good" or "bad" idea. that comes later. the point of the ideation stage is to get as many ideas as possible on the table.
How does an UX designer make a prototype? Which tools you use? Paper and pen scratches I can and also I am familiar with the research part and first steps, but I am not fit yet to make prototypes of applications or websites technically. Is this taught or do I have to bring that skill?

Design thinking is a very structured process that aims to solve the problem with defined steps efficiently. As a UX designer you should always think of it when tackling a problem or a new design.
Heyy! First of all, I absolutely live your videos and the whole channel. I have one question: are there any universities you would recommend where one can study UX/UI Design? Do you even need to study this or can you study something similar (e.g. Design / software engineering / psychology)? I would appreciate your answer a lot!😊😊
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, I'm still delving into UX design myself. I believe he's referencing any sort of digital tool you can use to create "wireframes", which are quick mockups for a product!
It was s series of vocabulary without context. This vocabulary was then added to by adding more vocabulary with no context along with references without context. What was this even about?
@@yaseenlakhdhar6090 As coincidence would have it, on Wednesday May 12th we're running a free, live online workshop on that topic. You can sign up here: careerfoundry.com/en/events/ Hope to see you there!
Hey, apologies that you found this to be the case. Was there anything in particular that was difficult to follow? How could we have made it easier to follow for you? Thanks in advance!
its a good explanation, but all of the lxd, uxd to me just seems like a bunch of processes with no real specified way of doing things. Not sure how anybody actually applies these concepts in a meaningful way.
I'm sorry - but the more I look up Design Thinking, the more hand-waving jargon impenetrable babble I keep running across -- and it's the same babble everywhere. (I have a Wharton MBA and have been a VP/CxO for 4-5 venture-backed Silicon Valley tech firms.) "Wicked Problems" - wow, great. "Hexagons!" woot - and "non-linear"! "Get to know your user", "proper research" - yeah, this is NOT a new thing, folks. This is just babble.
Hey, if this content didn't resonate with you, is there something we could produce that would cover more of the essentials in this area, as you see it? This was an introductory webinar event for people interested in learning more about the topic, and finding out a bit more about Design Thinking.

What a great explanation! Love all the advice in each stage. I need to watch this again and again.

Great explanation and tips!! Thank you!!
You are so welcome, glad you found the video informative!
So articulate! Thank you! 🙏🏽
Love your presentation, it's new and motivational too!
Great intro to design thinking! Thanks!
Thanks Nick! Glad you enjoyed!
I love the way you approached and explained Designed Thinking!!!
Very well structured, really informative, very clear and simple presentation, thanks a lot

agree
Very interesting; I do find there is a bi jump from "prototype" to "test solution". Would like to hear/read more on that step. Regards, Jacques
Coursera told me to come here🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Thanks!!!
Amazing breakdown and attention to approach by defining terms and "unknowns" TY!
What is the difference between design thinking, design process, engineering design.
whats the difference between ux design process and design thinking process?
It was really insightful, and in the presentation , the slide on test phase obstacles there is a typo under lacking the ability to pivot , ' too ' instead of 'to'.
Top questions of UI and UX design interview
can u show some examples of prototyping and how its done ?
Very clear, thanks a lot for the explanations!

Who was the guy that was narrating the video?
Me too, I'd like to know this guy
Thanks friends! 🙌
I saw so many videos but this is what iam looking amazing 🎉
Nice video! Very well explained
Glad it was helpful!

Judging too soon. Let the ideas flow without judging them. Judge later. hth
it means that any idea that comes up should be considered without worrying if it's a "good" or "bad" idea. that comes later. the point of the ideation stage is to get as many ideas as possible on the table.
Thank you soooo much for this detailed explanation!
What is figma and bird mocking i dnt know plz explain me
Thanks for the awesome tools introduced!
Very useful video.
Thanks! it was really helpful.

Feedback: the image of men playing with LEGO led me astray....

Wonderfully explanied
thank you soo much
Can we download the slide?

What are the differences between design thinking and traditional method of solving problem
Design thinking is a very structured process that aims to solve the problem with defined steps efficiently. As a UX designer you should always think of it when tackling a problem or a new design.
Foundations of user experience coursera brought me here!
No assumptions!!
Great job 👏🏽
Heyy! First of all, I absolutely live your videos and the whole channel. I have one question: are there any universities you would recommend where one can study UX/UI Design? Do you even need to study this or can you study something similar (e.g. Design / software engineering / psychology)? I would appreciate your answer a lot!😊😊
University of Baltimore and MICA have those programs.
Well design thinking came from Stanford- their engineering and design school.
12:57 - "platform for wires" -- can someone explain what that means? Thanks!
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, I'm still delving into UX design myself. I believe he's referencing any sort of digital tool you can use to create "wireframes", which are quick mockups for a product!
This a great video Thank you!
interested in the design
It was s series of vocabulary without context. This vocabulary was then added to by adding more vocabulary with no context along with references without context. What was this even about?
Wow very helpful
"Guess" is the best way beyond UX research. "Guess" is the place where innovation takes place. Don't trush too much on Design Thinking.
the video said to be less arrogant :)
Love these!
Thanks Yaseen! More webinar snippets to come soon.

Give me example of design thinking
thank you
I like this video
goood job
Great
hard to follow

Hey buddy they asked if you could let them know how they could improve the message
Any suggestions or are you all babble?
Could you provide some links to better content or videos.

I really can't see the value of this video. I can read, why is there someone reading text to me? Stopped watching after 2mins.
family and societies brought me here (I don't want to watch this video but I have to 🥲)
Great job ❤
