Back then, the term denoted little more than a loosely defined set of methods and ideas. Today, DT has been both refined and expanded to the point where it powers its own economy of academic research, business school courses, self-help-style instruction manuals, and online content. And while the latter is surely a boon to the armchair enthusiast, the sheer quantity of material available can overwhelm as much as it enlightens. That\u2019s why we've curated a selection of resources for those who want to better understand this innovation methodology and what it is capable of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Can Design Thinking Save Business?<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>This piece from the Wall Street Journal reflects on the current state of DT as applied outside traditional design fields.

For all the current excitement around design thinking (DT), its foundational practices of empathizing with end-users, prototyping, and testing are hardly new. One need only look to sectors such as fashion, furniture, and architecture, to name but a few, to see that for many professionals the human-centric approach to problem-solving has long been a part of standard practice. Yet to adopt the same methods in the corporate world is something of a departure. It was not until the 1990s that \u2018design thinking\u2019 gained currency and began making its way into the business executive\u2019s lexicon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Back then, the term denoted little more than a loosely defined set of methods and ideas.
